Not that I want to let Sony off of any hooks, but is it Sony that’s the main bad guy here, or is this because of more Warner chicanery “for tax breaks”?

Torrenting can't be stealing if paying for it isn't owning.

Dont blame  Sony blame  the company  that revoked  Sony license  from distribution  of said media its more then just Sony its the discovery  channels  fault more for taking sonys rights

But they’re not doing anticompetitive things in Japan. The Xbox hasn’t failed in Japan due to shenanigans, it has failed because the Japanese market isn’t interested in it. It’s very weird to ask for an open and free market and make these allegations when...the open and free market has been saying for 20 years that…

PlayStation Home was better and more affordable.

I suppose in a sense this *is* the sequel to Disco Elysium.

You have created 0.00001% of communism with this post

This is both an apt commentary on the futility of isolated leftist action and its tentative links to bourgeois politics, and a sad indication of how difficult it will be to sustain the level of thought required to create true collective recognition of capital and the violence it produces. Maybe seeing it travel from…

They were also desperately trying to win gamers over at the time because of their position in the market, and MCC was a trainwreck that dragged on for years and years so they had to apologize with Reach, which they were originally planning to sell.

The weird repeated insistence that this game is so horribly brutal and hard to endure is honestly weird here. I don’t know if it’s this particular writer or just kotaku’s general angle on TLOU ever since the second game kickstarted an internet war, but it just comes across hilariously pearl-clutching. I mean, this is…

Granted it’s been (9?!) years since I played it, but it was hardly the darkest and most bleak tale out there.

If you’re not having fun, you’re playing it wrong. Especially Part 2—Ellie Day 2's Hillcrest and The Seraphites levels are fucking fantastic to replay.

I mean, Rob Schneider sucks, but he’s not wrong in this instance. That was a really embarrassing/cringey moment for a comedy show.

Seriously. Streaming is actually the more anti-consumer option compared to buying games, because it means you don’t own anything and are at the whims of the capitalist overlords deciding whether to keep giving you access or not. Cheaper, yes. But there’s a reason why basically every expensive app (Creative Cloud, MS…

Truthfully you got 3 years of Gamepass by purchasing 3 years of Gold and upgrading for $1. Not the same, even if you would have had Gold anyway. 

Sounds like a you problem. Never has the store crashed on me or any of my friends. Nor has it had any of the issues you listed.

The funny thing about your post is that it’s EXACTLY how I feel about game pass. I got it at launch of this gen, installed 50-60 games, played through quantum break, and other than trying a few games since then, I haven’tt used game pass at all except when I recently installed as dusk falls.

Love this article, but one thing is wrong (unless I misunderstood something). “For now, the service relies on Remote Play, meaning you need a console to play on mobile and you must be on the same WiFi network.” Remote Play is possible from a different network. You have to wait a bit, as it first tries to find you…

There’s also Game Pass focusing on growth rather than profits as they try to onboard players and developers.
