The strategy of just shit out halfbaked porta of their shit sucks ass
The thing is, Sony bought Nixxes to handle the PC ports. So they have an studio that had a good enough track record porting other games to PC. Who knows if nowadays they either have budget contains or the real talent left long ago.
 
Honestly, do you even really want to give your money to this woke farce of a game? This game is infested with Sweet Baby's DEI nonsense everywhere, and I do mean everywhere you look in this game you will see either rainbow flags or BLM murals, not to mention they made MJ look like an ugly tranny.
Ok, she did not look like a tranny, merely homely. But yeah, the game sucked, now people know that, who is going to buy it?

The Insomniac leak stated its development cost was $315 million and made a profit of $75 million. However that didn't include marketing costs, which very likely heavily exceeded that $75 million in profit by several magnitudes. Then there's the question of whether those figures include the Disney licensing fees. They rushed to send this off to PC to potentially make some money but its looking like Spider-Man 2 potentially lost even more money in trying to port to PC.

The fact that they never did any DLC for the game is really telling.
That is what I am saying. This game did not make enough money to make up for its costs. It cannot. PS5 did not sell enough consoles for it. Not to mention that the time they made this could have gone to something more profitable.
 
Wouldn't the Soynys also cope that either "you're using a junky normie PC or laptop so that's why the performance sucks" and "clearly the game can't be handled by virgin PCs while us Chads on PS5 can experience them at full potential"?
Those are copes I've seen as well, the latter more than the former at least.
Are you really surprised at what depths of copium the Sonyiggers will try to reach? Sonyiggers on reddit are still coping that FFVII Remake Part 3 will still be a PS5 exclusive despite Square Enix saying otherwise.
 
>like half of their PSN users are still on the PS4
>announce that PSN+ won't be guaranteeing PS4 games in their monthly bonuses anymore to force them to upgrade to the PS5
>release one of the last remaining PS5 exclusives (Spider-Man 2) to PC at the same time as a third-party exclusive (Rebirth) releases to PC as well

What the fuck are they even doing? Are these 2 games such abhorrent bombs that they realized no one is buying a PS5 to play these games?
 
You're clearly being difficult on purpose or you're just really that dumb
Only 3-4 games I think count for "games that sony had as exclusives that they should have kept and were able to keep", and 2 of those were let go after the 2000s. Ever heard of not crying over spilled milk?

I agree with the overall sentiment, I just don't think the games you brought up really count. If you meant that Sony should have done more exclusivity deals with Konami, Square and the like, I apologize for my post since I have misread. Most of the specific games you brought up weren't exclusives.
 
Huh, interesting, I sure hope so.

Guess we're never getting Last Guardian and Gravity Rush then, all because their shitty woke ports flopped. And probably partially out of spite.

They need money desperately
They spent billions on live service games that will never even release, literally wont even get to come out and die like concord, just cutting their losses completely
They spent even more billions on acquiring studios for both running these live service games and also to get hundreds of monetization specialists to most effectively nickle and dime the shit out of people on those live service games, that have done absolutely nothing despite being employed for years at this point, except perhaps ruin Gran Turismo, a franchise that should have been evergreen
and they fired all their smaller low budget safe but steady teams because they werent going to make a hundred gorillion dollars with their well liked interesting exclusive games that gave people a reason to actually own a playstation
So they literally just have nothing else, the pipeline is almost empty, there's just a handful of games like Horizon 3 and Heretic Prophet and Ghosts of Yotei, you can count the first party studios on one hand now and more are going to get shut down
Remember how they completely fucked over Bend Studio and lied about Days Gone being a failure because Hulst only wanted to promote Druckmann. They forced them to work on a live service game and then cancelled it. They took a successful studio and directly killed it to suck off Druckmann because his is the ONLY zombie game, he invented zombies
So all they can do is try and scrape money out of what little is left of their hollowed out company

Now that the game is on PC at least there is a chance for modders to go to town and remove the SBI and DEI stink out of it, if only to piss off the utter faggots at Nexus Mods and show off they cannot police what mods people can or cannot install in their own machines.

Honestly at this point it is irrelevant whether or not Sony decides to port any PS4 game to PC, it is just a matter of time to have these game running better than in original hardware thanks to emulation. ShadPS4 is still a work in progress and Bloodborne already runs at 60FPS without crashes and without the frame pacing issues of the original and there are mods that improve the visuals of the original as well.

Still some aspects need fine tuning but the fact that an emulator for a machine that is still commercially available is this capable at such an early stage demonstrates what it'll be able to do once it is fully mature. Both Gravity Rush and The Last Guardian are in the "in-game" compatibility status, as in the game loads up to a point and then crashes. Give it time and these games will likely be soon in the "playable" state as the emulator becomes more accurate.

They're planning on GTA6 to shift those PS4 users to PS5 and therefore sell 20 million+ consoles. That's not a joke.

PS6 will launch in 2026 and will be a PS5PROPRO under the bonnet to keep the costs down and to end the gen early. That way they can refocus studios to PS6 games, which will also release on PS5, and the PS6PRO will be what the PS6 would have been had it released in 2027/2028.
 
Demons Souls is not currently being ported to PC and it looks like it might never be
That's fine with me. The emulated version works fine and it's not like they'd ever have ported the superior original over the remake anyway. Really the lesson is that the PC market is much different than the sonypony sycophants. It's a pointless task to dump titles that have accrued a shit reputation on the platform when it's painfully obvious that PC has next to zero interest in them. Expecting the PC market to bend over and accept what makes snoys shart and clap seems like a decision stemming from stroking an ego. The PC market has made it abundantly clear what it wants and if Sony isn't going to give it, then they'll just take matters into their own hands.

True but I'm sure it'll be a hassle and require a strong computer.

PS6 will launch in 2026 and will be a PS5PROPRO
You mean a PS4 Pro Pro Pro Pro lol

the biggest irony is they were so focused on MUH LIVE SERVICE they ignored everything else. with proper planning most games can easily be retooled as a different multiplayer or even solo game, to make at least some money back. for example they could've easily put a proper campaign or even pve mode into concord, even blizzard is too retarded for that, but that would require foresight and devs that actually enjoy videogames...

The strongest of Sony-copes that i've read is that you need a £/$2000 PC to run PS5 games at PS5pro level. While consoles have, and will, always outmatch PC on a cost:performance ratio, that ratio is getting smaller every day.

It becomes smaller still when you remove niggercattle marketing ploys like 4k and RT; neither of which are 4k or RT and instead are some trickery to trick people.
You mean a PS4 Pro Pro Pro Pro lol
I would agree, but that would mean the PS5 had the same software output as the PS4, which is laughably insulting. The PS4 launched more exclusives in one year than the PS5 did in five years.
 
Rumours, with apparently credible sources, are floating around that starfield, fable and MS flight simulator 2024 will be coming to the PS5 and Switch 2, with Killer instinct and Fable launching day 1 on the PS5.

If that's true and MS are launching their library on both PS5 and Switch 2, then the Switch 2 must have some magic under the hood that we're not wise to.
If starfield, a current-gen only game, can play on Switch 2 then so can GTA6.

WHY EVEN BUY A PS5?!?

Truth. They spent too much money on things that are hard to profit on and had no place in the market (people have only enough room for about two gaas in their lives and even that might be stretching it but they will not spend money on the others). They seem to think that every FTP game is a Fortnite level moneymaker and they spend accordingly, justifying the cost by saying "It will make is money later". Now the chickens have come home to fuck them in the ass. The fact that their few exclusives either are not particularly good and/or tend to find themselves on other platforms is their poisoned apple. Feeds them today and kills them tomorrow

Now that the game is on PC at least there is a chance for modders to go to town and remove the SBI and DEI stink out of it, if only to piss off the utter faggots at Nexus Mods and show off they cannot police what mods people can or cannot install in their own machines.
Do not bet on it. They cannot do much to change the story or remove the stupid missions. They might decide it is not worth the effort.

the biggest irony is they were so focused on MUH LIVE SERVICE they ignored everything else. with proper planning most games can easily be retooled as a different multiplayer or even solo game, to make at least some money back. for example they could've easily put a proper campaign or even pve mode into concord, even blizzard is too retarded for that, but that would require foresight and devs that actually enjoy videogames...
Live Services are the cryptocurrencies of vidya. Something that executives do not understand but demand them anyway because they saw others make a lot of money using them. There are those who do not know that they are in a bubble and greenlight more gaas. Then, there are those who DO know they are in a bubble and try to throw gaas into the wall to see what sticks before the bubble bursts however, due to modern dev costs and modern dev time, this is a fruitless endeavour as they cannot make something really good before time-up and everything goes to shit.

I would agree, but that would mean the PS5 had the same software output as the PS4, which is laughably insulting. The PS4 launched more exclusives in one year than the PS5 did in five years.
Bet that PS6 will have even less exclusives. That would be a hard sell. If only I were to be a fly on the wall when the initial year of PS6 sales is being discussed by the Sony board.

i cant think of anything i would like to play less than that shit trio. legit the only two games i want to play are gta and delta and i could just buy the pc version or wait the pc version. sony has fucking nothing holyshit
I look forward to Horizon 3. As I have said, every new game in that series releases alongside the game of the year (actual games of the year too, not disguised slop). That is reason enough to want TEN Horizon games, much less 3.

There never was a reason but the promise of future, better stuff to come. Empty promise if you ask me.

However that didn't include marketing costs, which very likely heavily exceeded that $75 million in profit by several magnitudes.

How much of that $315 million went to wokegeld and management bloat?
