Are you also keeping score regarding all the innocent people Israel has killed?

Riccitiello sucks but the board of Unity just replaced him with someone worse.

he wasnt fire for the stupid idea, he was fired because it failed.

“The reason we have to pay these CEOs such obscene amounts of money is so that we can retain their skill and expertise. I mean if we didn’t, they might go ruin some other company!”

Anyone who believes the lie that pay is commensurate with effort or talent or even results is naive.

He’s got the most punchable of faces.

Imagine being so fucking bad at your job and still making more money than any one of us will ever see in our lives.

Back in my day, you got a free cartridge with your Atari or Nintendo and you were going to like it!

$80 for online with no moderation is absurd.

Like, they really do be pushing me to only want to be playing non-ftp games on Xbox and PC.

I don’t want to turn this into fanboy nonsense but I’ve got a PS5 and an Xbox Series X and I’m begging you all to give Xbox a shot this gen. Sony is getting away with murder with some bewilderingly high PS5 sales. 

EIGHTY DOLLARS to play online? The hell? I don’t think so.

Console gaming becoming more expensive than PC gaming pretty quickly. Already was to a pirate.

Sad!

Maybe they are planning to start launching their first-party games on Extra/Premium day one? That doesn’t explain the price hike for Essential, though. Honestly, charging $60 a year for multiplayer access and cloud saves was a scam to begin with. Now it’s just an even bigger scam.

Nah, internally they’re thinking that their customers are heavily invested in the platform so they’ll tolerate the price hikes. If a business thinks it can raise prices without losing any meaningful amount of sales, they’ll absolutely do it.

Must be rough to be a console gamer. I cant fathom paying twice to play my games online. 

That’s fucking bonkers. I’m on the Premium Tier right now because it was on sale and the upgrade from brought it to within a few bucks of Extra. I was on the fence justifying even Extra to myself at the old price.

Serious question: does anybody have an idea of how much it costs for Sony to offer these services?

The “digital future” is just as fucked up as every other future I was looking forward to as a kid.

Sorry Sony, PS Plus Essential is not worth $80 a year. Just give us free online gaming with friends sans games, FFS.

I was already having trouble justifying my PS Plus Premium sub because I almost never use my PS5 anyway. I actually bought one specifically for PS Plus Extra because I figured it would offer enough games to justify a purchase but it turns out I just don’t really like playing games on console.

It is funny. Last week I received an email from Nintendo about my NSO subscriptions and I was like: “Aw hell no, priced are going up”.
