Great… please don’t tell me we’re going to see Sony repeat history and strip BC like they did with Linux back in the PS3 days when there was a similar exploit. Only being slightly sarcastic here.

Now that would be hilarious.

If will be interesting to see what they do (if anything). I can see some interesting homebrew being installed.

A comment I saw from local radio host on KFAN who does a weekly radio show with Game Informer’s Andrew Reiner. Just kind of shows that this false narrative of PlayStation has tons of games is shifting.

PlayStation is basically a lot of smoke and mirrors propped up by a fanatical cult. PlayStation doesn’t even have very many ip and even if it suddenly gained as many studios as Xbox they would need to acquire ip.

I said the other day on here that after God of War Ragnarok I’m going to end up unplugging my PS5 for a year or two until the next big PS5 game lol

There is no narrative that Playstation 1st party is great, it’s simply a fact, they have a great quality and output pipeline, this is irrelevant to whether you personally like everything they make or not.

What is actually smoke and mirrors narratives that you might be confusing is the notion that they’re the only good ones out there, the cherry picking and selective attitude on what counts and what doesn’t (basically, only PS games count), the dismissiveness of other developers/platforms that results as a means to prop PS studios, the idea that everyone who buys a PlayStation buys it for the 1st party exclusives, and the hostility towards daring to dislike or criticize their games and approach in any way.

[GamepadX]

Even casuals are openly mocking PlayStation for remasters at this point.

Let’s just be honest. When people say PlayStation studios are great, they are basically talking about Naughty Dog, Insomniac, and Santa Monica.

If anything it’s the other way around. Sony delivers must have or play games. The games released for Xbox since he’s taken over have been pretty poor compared to the competition.

2022 was supposed to THE year. Instead, we’ve gotten one indie-level Obsidian game. That’s it. Literally the only game for an entire calendar year.

There’s a huge gap in first party quality between MS and Sony and I don’t see it closing anytime soon. It just seems MS is really troubled delivering great games that everyone would like to play.

I mean Forza and Flight Simulator are both amazing looking games but most people will not even start up those games, and if they do they probably mostly quit playing them after a few hours.

Somehow Sonys games are just much more fun to play in general so it’s quite clear why they have a huge advantage in sales. Lets hope that MS will deliver with their new games which seemingly take forever to create, but I think most will turn out just like with Halo Infinite

Thanks for being a direct example of what I just talked about.

When we say a cult, we mean it. It’s not a joke anymore.

I appreciate your comment. For me personally i really like xboxes first party games. I played some during the 360 days then stopped for until 2016. When i got back i had a big back catalog and although a couple were just okay, most were really enjoyable.

In contrast I’m not even finding as many playstation games to play. I never liked souls like games or uncharted, but am just surprised I’m having issues finding exclusive games to buy.

I skipped PS3 and PS4 and probably played around a similar number when I got my PS5. I think the bar might be a little higher when going back to old games. I found the PS Plus Collection pretty nice for a month or two.

Do you have any recommendations besides flagship titles? I have jak games, horizon, last of us, god of war, ghost, sackboy, ratchet games, Spider-Man games, days gone, and the Wipeout collection

Not really, the other ones I played were games like Persona 5 (now on Xbox) and FF7 Remake. Also gave Nioh a shot by souls like games aren’t my jam.

When it comes to PlayStation the majority of their ‘exclusives’ have always been third party, it’s always just portrayed as being first party.

Like @GamepadX mentioned I think from a first party output most people are only interested in Naughty Dog, Insomniac, and Santa Monica.

From the CMA discussions Xbox accused PlayStation of securing exclusivity on 280 games in 2021:

Xbox v PlayStation: Giants clash over Call of Duty

When you start looking at the third party exclusives such as Kena Bride of Spirits, Stray, Bloodborne & Final Fantasy etc I’m sure there are some other games you may enjoy. Even the timed exclusives on PS normally end up as full exclusives (Kena for example).

Here are some of them (there are many more Japanese titles):
