Well, doesn't mean like they aren't working on other things, if anything it suggest that they have plenty to announce (but we already know that based on their financial presentations).
That's the sad part and a major reason why gaming is the way it is today. People should be losing their shit over this. Sony is making money hand over fist and only doing this because they can. The US survived this goofiness thanks to Microsoft's presence in the states. And yeah, that Playstation Plus Deluxe/extra is for sure a "get fucked" deal, lol.
You can't sell more than you produce and getting beat by a Nintendo portable is business as usual for Sony, they literally gave up competing with Nintendo in that space.
Why? Who cares? Just don't buy it if you don't think it's worth it.
In all fairness those people you describe should not be shopping for a console no matter the price.
So you also dismiss all the others factors i mentioned??
Sony fumbling their way into outselling the Xbox once again.
If anything this has helped scalpers. At the bare minimum they can sell all those inventories for $50 more.
US has inflation since 1960.. average 3,8%
Switch is a hybrid console though. But anyways, I believe we agree on the topic.
As a consumer you should care. What do you mean? And no worries, I'm not buying. PS5 has no interest to me, but the point still remains.
Must've missed the news where Sony acquired Square Enix.
Jimmie is pissing people off but most PS fans are still buying his product
Thats what people said before petrol went from £1 to £1.98 and the companies found out they can get away with it and refuse to budge, same with energy companies etc.
The worse news we get, it really just means the better news we will get in the future!think of the bright side, the upcoming Sony news should be positive based on Sony news reporting trend here.
So you are mad over a price increase for a product you were not even interested into buying in the first place?
I am not saying it is news, it is a legal (still) business tactic. It is what it is: you are outspending your competition to ensure you conquer the pie in the end as you decided the total pie is worth investing in (which means you will want to recoup the investment once you have won that market over and you control it).
The more money you invest from other divisions in terms of absolute subsidies vs your competition can cause competitors that were competitive not to en able to be anymore due to not a lot of fault of their own, this is not to excuse Sony here but you do concede as a point that subsidies can do this or see we still pretending they do not?
It is not just that but recession, inflation, profit margins increase to protect long term sustainability and keep investors happy, etc… are real things… oh no, simpler to just keep an “Evil Greedy Sony” angle. Again, if you think that plopping $100 Billion range money out of thin air from other divisions does not change things you are will fully deciding to ignore things, oh well…
Thankfully the PS5 ain't petrol, just a luxury video game console that mostly has crossgen games in the first place anyway. You'll even be able to play God of War Ragnarok on your PS4.
The cost is down plenty with the big fall of fast storage costs. and many advanced chip fabs moved to a lower nod freeing up more production for 7nm. so the reason is very likely to cash in on the high demand instead of leaving most of the profits to retail and resellers.
At this point it should be clear that Jim Ryan doesn't care about PR that much. Jimbo got himself canceled and is still hanging around.
Jim Ryan only cares about JR
How's that Final Fantasy VII Remake going on Xbox?
No, cba. U do it <3
I'll do it once MS stop hiding the numbers. <3
imo this gen will be long one so i expect Mid gen upgrades from MS and Sony.
This is the way warrior.
I mean, not to sound like I like paying more, but that's just a business being a business.
Well how could I do it?
