I’ll be honest, as someone’s who’s already pretty invested in the Sony first party ecosystem, I’m pretty wildly unimpressed.

So it just says not to play at all right? It says this is unfair and we’re sorry for shilling this for $60? It says here’s your money back put it towards a console that can run this natively? :v

It’s almost like in the context of video games and pop culture they have no positive influence at all. Weird huh :) 

Can’t wait for the handful of crypto dorks to roll in here talking about how Kotaku never says anything nice about NFTs and no one understand their potential except for them and it’s all so unfair because how are they ever going to become fake crypto Pokémon pyramid scheme landlords if people know that it’s just a…
