This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.
2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil
No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.
We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.
3. No excessive self-promotion

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.
4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts
This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.
We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

Egads! I'll have to play other games. The horror! The humanity!
Oh, these indie games are actually pretty cool and much better. Maybe supporting passionate devs is better, huh?
Heh. My backlog spans 19 years. I won't miss much. Only a couple of their first party titles got my attention at all.
This wouldn't be bad if we were getting deals like we were in 2008/9 with like a PS3 + 3 games and 2 controllers for £350.
Now is £550 for the console alone + £70 per year to play online + £70 for one game + £60 for a new controller + £100 for disc drive? Get all the way fucked.
For those who don't know, is largely because of Xbox supporting PC games on their consoles, and then also the Steam Frame. All of a sudden they know their hardware won't matter. Not excusing it, it's still incredibly shitty, but this is the main driver.
Your loss.
This would not be a problem if the PS5 had any games.
Right now, Indie games are wiping the asses of big industry games. Megabonk, Coal LLC, you name it. Singular people putting out content getting thousands of purchases. I know they have a team, but Relogic selling 70m copies of Terraria?
PlayStation at this point is like those soldiers you find deep in the woods, trying to fight the war on their own, ignorant to the news that the war ended years ago. still trying to fight the console wars in 2026.
That's the last straw! I'm buying a playstation!
Could you please pump more into Generative AI so it's impossible to afford computers? Yes?! Ho thank you! And you also made playstations more expensive? Great!

It seems that the last great Playstation was in fact Playstation 3.
I just won't buy their games then? I'm not going to move over just for a few games.
Enjoy going from getting some of my money to none of it, Sony.
I hope that when Horizon 3 is released, they will reconsider this. It's a series, and people who bought “Horizon: Zero Dawn” and “Horizon: Forbidden West” will be outraged.
I was really happy when I could finally play the horizon games and enjoyed the heck out of them. But if the third one never comes to PC then I'll just never play it. At worst I'll be able to just watch the entire thing being played for the story.
Same with part three for ff7 remake. But again I'll just have to live without it. My console days are over and they aren't coming back.
cool, I won't buy your games then.
Hasn't this been tried before?
Tell me again how much money they are losing because of Bungie. It's so funny
Well, there goes my money then
oh no...wait didnt they say this last time?
Yeah yeah we've heard it before. Now I'm not the kind of person to promote suicide, but that's because if you're rich or means we won't get to devour you alive and screaming 🍽️
Wasn't planning on buying anything with sony's name on it anyway, so whatever.
Don't play station!
