Industry analyst Michael Pachter has claimed that the Nintendo and PlayStation business model of console exclusives no longer works.
Days Gone director claims Sony has already poured in at least a $250M in Bend's project; says Days Gone sold more than Death Stranding.
Well that sucks. Seems they want more online trash. I'd rather of had the sequel if it was single player
It would be a shame if it was true that Hermen never gave the franchise a chance simply because he didn't like it and they already had a "Zombie" game with TLOU.
NaughtyDog are most likely moving onto a new IP next so it would have been the perfect time to do it.
Oh great so we only get what the big wigs want… y’know, the people that really have their fingers on the pulse of what their consumers want. Faaaaantastic!
Sand Land Review - Akira Toriyama's two decade old manga has received new life with a recent anime adaptation and now a video game as well.
Frame generation technology has arrived on consoles, amplifying frame-rates and potentially transforming experiences.
Impressive results... sadly I don't have a 120hz display. I was thinking this technique could increase fps on any game that supports it regardless of the display.
Now I've extensively tried it I'm not too fussed about 120 fps. Give me a locked 60 and more details and I'm more than happy
Here we go
Microsoft changes things and suddenly it’s the right path where they are now ahead of the game and other companies are using outdated methods
Maybe the issue with AAA exclusives is the bloated budgets and thinking they have to go above and beyond on everything single little detail when they really don’t have to.
Industry analyst? should've just put Michael pachter in that spot in the title.

Stopped reading there.
It no longer works for Microsoft because they gutted their software sales for years with gamepass, had a poor exclusive offering, as well increasingly plummeting console sales. Stop trying to lump Sony and especially Nintendo in to this basket lol.
