What's funny to me is all you guys who admit you never buy games at full price and frequently only on deep sales, which is exactly the reason Sony is in serious trouble.

I HAVE become Old(er), for sure. Beats the alternative, sir.
That said, cynical? Not at all. In fact, as I've done less development work these last few years I've fallen BACK in love with the games medium. Amazing how that works.
I'm very excited for this new gen, across the board. And I've been gaming like a fiend these days.
Having an opinion that runs contrary to yours doesn't make one cynical. It just makes one...different.

I know who David Jaffe is.
But then, since everyone can just state his/her opinion on youtube, and sometimes this is being discussed here, how is his opinion any less relevant than anybody else's?
He never does. we’ve been bamboozledWhere does he say Sony will do n64/GameCube numbers? Time stamp please as I can’t find it.
Do you own the rights to Calling All Cars? I loved that game and would like to see it again. Had tons of fun with it.I HAVE become Old(er), for sure. Beats the alternative, sir.

Sony is going to sell on pure international sales and the momentum from the last generation. It will be a much closer race this time between Sony and Xbox for installed base but when you branch out from first party and hardware Xbox will slaughter in areas Sony isn't in e.g. Gampass, xCloud....

We don't know anything about preorder numbers. All we have is fanboys asserting that one sold more than the other based on their feelings.
I don’t care about your point. You made some incorrect claims and comparisons and I’m correcting you. Once again
XBL-XBL gold
PS plus- PSN
PSN has over 113M monthly active users across PS4 and PS3. PS plus has 45M subscribers.
MS not separating XBL and gold doesn’t mean anything other than they’re hiding numbers and boasting them up like they always do.
The facts are
XBL has 90M monthly active users across all XBL accounts you sign into on whatever devices. That includes phones, laptops, tablets, games on other platforms like Minecraft on PS4.
Yes PS4 because of the XBL account required is contributing to the 90M monthly active users on XBL. Funny isn’t it.
I’m hoping and assuming they’re not in their 30’s or 40’sImagine being in your 30s or 40s and still fanboy console warring.
Davis Jaffe claims he's about to be 50.Imagine being in your 30s or 40s and still fanboy console warring.
After Twisted Metal PS3 and Drawn Together I wouldn't attempt any online multiplayer centric games.Ah, thanks on behalf of all of us who worked on it! I loved it too!
Alas, no. All the stuff I worked on was paid for by Sony so they- rightly so- own it.
Would love to take another crack at it tho, build in a proper team mode and the ability to pass the criminal back and forth to your team mate. And 1-2 more defensive abilities. Then it would be (I hope!) party game perfect!

Sony 2020....
Yes, it’s a dreadful start and a concern for the future.
You got it, pal! I'll be sure to reach out to you when making my next game design decision because you've done so much amazing stuff. You know, like posting on a forum.After Twisted Metal PS3 and Drawn Together I wouldn't attempt any online multiplayer centric games.
That was not his point... he is trying to say the repeat works makes it laughable when you try to read it in loud voice lol
Have you heard about my friend who is a Nintendo fanboy who hates Sony? He's 41.Imagine being in your 30s or 40s and still fanboy console warring.
I scanned the thread just to find your responses whenever someone pulls you in... and they are always GOLDI HAVE become Old(er), for sure. Beats the alternative, sir.

They've been doing it for four years and Google comes and beats them with better tech with Stadia.Dipped their toe into steaming? LOL!!! They've been doing it for 4 years. All the need to do (and this is a lot of work) is make it work on smartphones again.
May Bartlet Jones forever rest in pepperonis.You got it, pal! I'll be sure to reach out to you when making my next game design decision because you've done so much amazing stuff. You know, like posting on a forum.
Weaker system but bigger,louder and just as expensive.They have their own way of innovation. Their cooling system in the PS5 is literally the first time anything been done this way to cool a system.
You do know they make billions in profit from the PS division, right?
PS5 messaging seems all over the place with Lying Jim Ryan. PS4 dream team all but gone now.
This! As soon as i saw the thread title I was going to post " is this another character assassination thread due to not liking what someone said? "#1- I hate Davis Jaffe.
#2- I am 49, 50 in April.
#3- I am not console warring. Unfortunately some of you here seem to have been educated with a banana and an inner tube and can't distinguish between 'RARRRR! MY CONSOLE IS THA BESTEST!!!!' and 'Hey, I've worked in games for 20+ years and I enjoy talking about the business and I think it's worth discussing how amazing Microsoft did this week at a business level, especially given how beaten down they were last gen'.
Sales prediction is incorrect but he's bang on about their messaging right now.
Miles away from the calm clarity they had around the time of the PS4 launch.
Jim Ryan has a lot to answer for.
I have not had the chance to actually play any of your games, but Is think it is awesome that you are continuing to engage here despite having your opinions mischaracterized and some members making some personal attacks.You got it, pal!

Neither one had had great messaging because they can't do the typical marketing events that generally lead up to a console launch, covid f'd a lot of things up. MS has done nothing but talk, we've still not seen a single next gen game running on the console, Sony has shown PS5 games actually running on the hardware with RT etc they give results while MS just gives us words. Hell Halo and DMC for xbox series x weren't even going to have RT working at launch, Halo was delayed but DMC still won't have it up on day one it's going to be patched in later.
If Game Pass eats Sony's lunch, multiplats perform better on XSX, and everyone is waiting for price drops to buy Sony first party...it won't stay that way.

1. Gamepass is making MS lose a hell of a lot of money at the moment.
2. The performance delta is too modest to have anything that is immediately noticeable on screen.
3. People have waited for price drops forever. In fact, the argument could be turned around: "what if no one on Xbox buys MS titles anymore and just waits for them to be on Gamepass??".
That would be a special edition then. You always have to pay for extra shit.Sony executives could personally shit in every retail box and the PS5 would still sell gangbusters.
Whenever I see your name I want to eat jaffa cakes.
