Sony hate thread

[MirrorNoir]

Is it safe to say that Sony has never fully recovered from their press conference at E3 2006?

They recovered but like Jack Nicholson in "Heartburn", resumed fucking things up just as things went back to normal with the PS4.

metal gear is well known and well liked. it's stupid to just not make anymore.
game sold almost 10 mil copies, ground zeroes sold another 4
if it wasnt they wouldnt be doing shit like remasters for snake eater.

This plus the fact that everyone was fully expecting MGS5, especially with its decision to recast Big Boss's voice with Keifer Sutherland, to end with Big Boss finally going full evil and the next to games of the series being the long awaited 3D remakes of the OG Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2.

intergalactic releasing. and everyone going "you dropped kojima for this?"
is legitimately the only interesting thing sony fans have to look forward to now.

Sonyggers are starting to cope that sony cut Kojima cause of his budget costs and inflation. While probably true, it's still a cope as sony spent nearly half a billion on concord, a game that has had 0 positive reception since trailer 1. 250 million on marathon and will probably spend half a billion on intergalactic. Doesnt help that wolverine is looking to be a flop to. Sonys first returning exclusive and its a game so bland and hand holdy that even the most extreme casuals dont wanna play it.

One valid point they (accidentally) make is that modern day AAA budgets are unsustainable. HOWEVER, this doesn't change the fact that Sony is desperate for exclusives that will sell well. And dumping millions into the next Kojima vanity project is their best option. Actually, it looks like it's their ONLY option considering they shut down or downsized half a dozen of their first party studios since 2020, poured billions into live service slop that barely reach 1500 daily players and their "golden goose" is a studio that releases 1 underperforming capeshit game every 3-5 years. And to add insult to injury this same studio is %100 willing to ruin their game on purpose to "own the chuds".

Not sure what their issue is with Kojima. If it's true that he's an annoying sperg to work with who requires 24/7 tard wrangling while frivolously pissing away millions on stupid bullshit no one asked for only to produce gay movie games that underperform, then he's the platonic ideal of a Current Year Sony dev.

Maybe they were upset that he was going by his real name instead of forcing his staff to call him something stupid like Doctor Legend or Lord Awesomecock.

 

[Princess Luna II]

Sony just terminated their partnership with Kojima on his next game.

LOL.

Gaming industry is dead....and thank God.

Unfortunately still not dead enough. The moment to celebrate will come when we get a whole calendar year without even a single A(ss)A(ss)A(ss) release, to the absolute horror of manchildren worldwide. The news are a step towards this victory, because while it's a stupid move on Sony's part and won't do them any favours, Kojima is a hack fraud and if Microsoft really takes him, he comes with a package of guaranteed problems. The best outcome will be if they all lose, while gaining absolutely nothing.

I feel genuine pity and disgust at the same time, whenever I look at her - no sane person would willingly disfigure oneself like this. This must be one of the symptoms of our grim times.

physint tagline is "here comes the feeling"

And everyone knows that by "the feeling", it refers to the sensation that Hideo Kojima feels during masturbation.

Now they're trying to squeeze as much money as possible from their dwindling userbase.

Happens with every dying industry. PlayStation and Xbox are having their linear television moment. People leave, they continue to jack up the price. More people leave and they try to milk their existing customers for all they can with more price hikes and ads.

Fun fact: Solid Snake's arms are canonically not blue.

It might be time to take Insomniac behind the shed and end their suffering, Old Yeller-style. This Marvel IP thing is like a bad case of AIDS draining them of every ounce of revenue, all the while they continue to develop worse and worse games.

 

[LikeAStone 2.0]

A real, honest to God, quote from a senior Wolverine developer on the New York Time’s review of the game:

“Freed from the familiar, iconic love triangle involving X-Men leader Scott Summers (Cyclops), the Logan and Jean pairing is finally allowed rare tenderness. Even Logan’s famously violent rivalry with Sabretooth has room for love. When the two attack a military base, Sabretooth grabs the back of Logan’s head in a brief moment of yearning.
“Logan feels that yearning and he gets scared and pulls away. Sabretooth feels that yearning and it makes him hurt and want to lash out to exert that hurt outward,” Williams said. “Hate and love are so hand in hand ... you hurt me so I’m going to hurt you, and we’re still going to be linked because now the pain is shared.”

Veteran game actor Troy Baker is excellent as Essex, a slithery mentor whose motives never feel entirely clear, sometimes to the story’s detriment. The villains can lack convincing motivations as everyone converges around a MacGuffin device that’s typical of even the best superhero stories.
“Wolverine” doesn’t escape the familiar superhero trope of promising larger stories even as it finishes this one. The intimacy of the drama becomes crowded by revelations and lore designed to extend Insomniac’s superhero universe.
Insomniac takes more chances with Wolverine the character than Wolverine the video game. Here Logan’s love feels liberating. I only wish playing him felt the same.”

TL;DR Wolverine and Sabertooth have gay undertones and want to fuck.

 

[Tanner Glass]

This is some of the worst decision making I've ever seen and we just had a decade of Phil Spencer.

Not only did they (apparently) turbo fuck Kojima publicly and bail on the game - but they did so after they already put several years into it. Not only does Microsoft get Kojima's next project - they get his next project and 2-4 years of Dev time paid for already by Sony.

Holy shit.

Despite this retardation and despite sony being one of the worst companies out there and despite the disc thing... I really want to play ghost of yotei and may have to buy a PS5.

Ghost of Tsushima was one of the best games I've ever played in my life. I've not even played a game since as I doubted anything could top that.

when the fuck these worthless faggots started to call themselves "game actors" lmao. the industry cant burn soon enough

Please tell me this is sarcasm.

Well you're in luck because Yotei blows ass compared to Tsushima.

The graphics and gameplay are better (which it fucking should be) but the acting, characters and story are garbage. TV movie tier.

Just play the first one again.

I think that's definitely too far, it was surprisingly good, especially coming from sony, but let me tell you for a fact, GoYslop isn't gonna be the one to top it.

The graphics and gameplay are better

And gameplay? Nah, not even close.

Hideo Kojima turning up to work everyday:

0:03

 

[Dr J]

PS3 was designed to be intentionally obtuse to work with because in Sony's arrogance, they were hoping to make porting to and from the PS3 so difficult and expensive that studios would just release things as PS3 exclusive by default.

I mean this was literally Hiroshi Yamauchi's rationale for making the Nintendo 64 difficult to develop for, and what happened? Playstation trounced them

Not only did Sony not learn from their own mistakes, they repeated other people's mistakes too

 

[Halloween23]

Kojima signing with XBOX is Soyny’s 9/11.

Lets be real, XBOX will find a way to fumble all of this.
