Are they Playstation games 😂

But Lady Decade, I can't even play a BluRay on you. How can you possibly hope to compete with Sony?

I think your nuts and your underestimating the PlayStation 5 Pro

PS2 was compatible with PS1 because it had its hardware inside, same applies for early PS3s. The problem is that Phony gambled on some highly experimental HW for PS2 (and PS3 too) which made backwards compatibility a nightmare. What is the most insulting in this whole story is that Phony got away with what costed Sega their console business literally a decade earlier (the multi-chip Saturn).

Well, when you talk about the pride flag and Saudi Arabia, it's not so much as making money, as much as it is loosing money. I don't know much about Saudi, but I do know about the identity politics. I also know that some countries are completely against it. Meaning, if they hadn't removed the flags, it's possible the game could have been banned. There are many games in the US that are banned in other countries, for various reasons. I could very well be wrong, but in a business sense, Sony could have actually lost money. Now I don't know if things are going to get better, or worse. However, if you're in business, the worst thing you can do is alienate your customers. Alienating customers usualy leads to bankruptcy.

Plus, cd media while Nintendo stuck with the limited cartridges.

The graphic's on N64 looked better but the PS was easier to program for so people would rather of worked on it over the more technical console, esoecially back then cause 3D territory was still new easier on PS to tinker with.

@@maroon9273 I would rather limited cartridges faster loading times rather instant loading times and N64 cartridges got bigger in rom size towards the end of its console life cycle.

@@GoofyPoptart It's not just the fact that carts had less space, but they were also more expensive (There was a period where the N64 versions of games cost more than the PSX versions). And with the extra space afforded with the discs, that means stuff like more CG movies and higher quality music

@@RippahRooJizah most people had both a PS1 and the N64 exclusive games meant the most back then

Wait. There's a game collection? I never noticed.

It's not hers it more belongs to her husband

The PS5 doesn't even have a web browser, yet my Dreamcast still works online and can browse websites with the CD 😂😂😂

That $80 a year made me buy a PC.

Moving to the future is obviously going to cost more money. Just be glad you can buy a console and play games and dont need to spend $2k on a decent gaimng tower.

While true, the thing is that it isn't just limited to Sony. In general, the vast majority of today's tech are more simplified and lack the customisability and hardware features that we once used to have. So much stuff is all cloud based nowadays.

@@am_pm.17 Very true, but then again Xbox actually chooses to let you keep the games in your library, they actually let you play backwards compatible games, they are allowing a secondary setup to play ROMs and emulation on Xbox. They claim the Dev Mode is not for emulation, but they know it's going on and they are not stopping it. PlayStation is the system that took everything away and demands more money. PC is the only system that does not, and this is why I prefer it. It is my opinion and choice that I believe PC offers more and Console screws you all over. Plus, the topic is limited to Sony, so that's why we are talking about Sony. We are not talking about tech in general.

Then you will port begging from your pc for playstation games to be ported to pc

@@jennahaze6835Nobody Really Nobody Wants PlayStation Titles Anymore I was Big Sony Fan they Killed with Woke everything they had America is full of poison

@jennahaze6835 I don't play Playstation games anyway, but thats me, right now have my switch and my pc and I have plenty to enjoy playing.

​@@jennahaze6835after all this bs i dont think any dev brave enough to have sony as publisher anymore...so yeah keep sking that dk sony boi🤣

​@@jennahaze6835Nixxes bro, it exists purely to port PS games to PC. They aren't stopping anytime soon 😂

Coordinated effort to take a dive.

End of home gaming console is nearing. Pc and portable gaming is the future.

Hopefully vr will also rise and more stuff will be on vr.​@maroon9273

@@maroon9273 this has literally being said in every generation. Consoles will always be around whether you like it or not

Its just big corporations destroying everything they touch in the name of greed and political brainrot, which is also usually more greed. its just gotten noticably worse in the last 10 years or so

they'll be fine. worry about xbawks ^_^

@@Kirby-Krios They won't be. People are slowly having enough with their censoring and silly AAA focus that producers very few games etc. Sony will be in for a nasty surprise coming PS6. Nintendo is within an inch of winning console wars one and for all.

​@@Kirby-Kriosxbox currently has the best gaming services in the world, owns some of the best franchises in the world, and has started generating windows level revenue while also having first party games... sony on the other hand... has no first party games this year, has lost 10 billion in market value and has publicly stated that they simply arnt making enough off of just playstation gamers so either sony drastically changes what're doing or they will fall

​@@SIPEROTHNintendo isnt even part of the war... currently Nintendo rules the handheld space though now they have strong competition for that spot moving forward should be more interesting for them.. they ve mainly gone uncontested in that space for most of the switchs life

@@De1usionsofGrandeur Nintendo is part of the war. This silly idea that Nintendo isn't is false. They sell a console and they sell games. Therefore they are a choice for anyone want to buy a console and games over the other two.

^^ this.. this is exactly when I started noticing a lot of it happening. 2 years later I had completely reverted to PC/Nintendo Switch only gaming. Gave away my Ps4 to a co worker who never had one, and donated all my games to a small local mom and pop video game reseller here in town. Probably over a grand worth of games. Never bought a ps5 and never looked back. Hell the switch is starting to lose its playtime due to the steam deck I also own.

All games have censorship.

​@@hpickettz34 thats why the industry is crashing

I hate censorship

@@bousch8253 you're missing out on some great games. I have a gaming PC, Switch, & PS5. That way I get the best of both worlds.

Nintendo are already doing things to destroy itself

@@dewrygwyllgi2636 We've heard that story continuously for long but Nintendo simply never dies!

Make Sony/Japan great again.

The reverse of what happened to Sega lol

This. The PS headquarter moved to the US so they could compete with Xbox, not for being the PS brand has we all used to know and love.

Not true. Compression tech could put FFVII on N64. Square turned it down. It’s how you got Resident Evil on N64.

​@@darinherrick9224 I literally just said it would have been heavily compressed and taken a massive hit in quality. Did you even read my message? Lol Resident Evil 2 on N64 - Bitrate was varied per clip - sequences with lots of motion were encoded with a higher bitrate while low motion scenes could make do with a reduced bitrate. The frame-rate of the videos was halved from 30fps to 15fps - interpolation then is used to make up the difference which improves fluidity. The resolution of the clips was reduced. Every possible nip and tuck were made to find the right balance and deliver acceptable results - and 'acceptable' perfectly sums up the final quality. It's plainly obvious that Nintendo 64's video clips fall short of the original PlayStation version. The brightness is halved, the reliance on motion interpolation reduces fluidity, resolution is lower and compression lossier - all of these things are evident and yet, it works. Bespoke solutions for background and object rendering were also deployed. The overall detail level is slightly reduced compared to PlayStation. The artwork is generally of a lower resolution and the eight by eight compression artefacts visible as a result of its JPEG-like compression are super-obvious, but it works. Additional compression artefacts are visible as a result of the conversion and compression while detail is lost in other scenes due to reduction in asset size. PlayStation simply features more detail all around.

@@darinherrick9224 Resident evil only had 15 minutes of FMV, FF7 had 53 minutes worth. Just this fact alone would make it impossible to compress onto one cartridge. FF7 was A MUCH larger game all around and would have taken 12 cartridges WITH compression. It would have looked nasty on N64. As far as I am aware there has never been any N64 games on multiple cartridges. It simple would not have been cost effective at all. Cartridges cost WAY more than CD's.

The steam deck is my portable gaming rig of choice. My vita died on me so I can't really say much about that machine.

No it hasnt only terminally online people in youtube or social media think that just in 5 months they have droppe helldivers 2 ff7 rebirth gran blue stellar blade and many other bangers plus vr2 is an amzing way to play but most people on the internet aint real gamers just drama fake outrage junkies.

@@lordhorg999”many others” doesn’t mention any more

.... and Ebay facilitated it.

I luckily got 2 at launch, but there was no chance I was overpaying for it

Eh how is that Sonys fault? While not on the level of PlayStation due to reseller greed the same thing happened when switch launched and pretty much any high demand item. This is mainly due to reseller greed, and especially the use of bots to electronically snag items faster than a human consumer could ever do on their own.

Microsoft, Nintendo and Valve, Ubisoft, EA can do the same on PC

Another Patriots fan...

The stock market was a mistake.

People can be good in the beginning, that is possible.

Give development cycles, I'm hoping Microsoft will turn it around in the latter half of this decade. They have alot of titles coming in the next few years

Well, Not microsoft, COD confirm coming to GAME PASS and tons of AAA games coming this year.

@3y270 the pulled an EA though by killing a couple of studios, the worst being arkane, Microsoft demanded that they'd make a live service game while they were masters at single player story telling.

Microsoft is in better position for now even though they quit hit a few potholes damaged

Game pass $180 annual cost purchased a whole lot more games on steam that I actually want to play. Actually I spend closer to $100 on steam and my backlog still keeps growing. I'm pretty sure I have enough games to last me and the kids until steam launches their next gen of VR. And there's been enough indies to keep us away from AAA for the last few years.

What’s the battery life on the Steam deck? Is it worth bring it for long business flights over a Switch?

Steam deck is actually bellow a PS4 lol.

@@007GoldenLion No it isn't.

​@@007GoldenLion it is but on a small screen it really doesnt matter.

@@cal2127 but in a big ones yes. If you preffer portable gaming then steam deck is a great choice

Sounds like a remix from Nier Automata ... Grandma Destruction, ma be?

It's the Star Descent theme from Stellar Blade

**tsk** noice

The alternative is they need to sell Ghosts of Tsushima at a lower price to compensate for the lack of internet play, which they probably won't do.

Too late, as Sony is getting thrashed in Japan by Nintendo😂😂

@@Adamtendo_player_1 Ah well. I love Nintendo

That's foolish. The Japan studio never talked to the community. Newly leaks say that Sony will actually discuss their future plans.

Never to late to change for consoles. Nintendo has changed many times.​@@Adamtendo_player_1

This reply is just for algorithm purposes, too.

Yup, the fall of Atari was long and epic. They were irrelevant after the 2600 but it took the 5200, 7800, XE, Lynx, Jaguar, Jaguar CD, The ST computers and the Falcon to finally crumble.

Yeah but it's their own doing so you can't really feel bad for them. They need to learn the hard lessons and really feel it in their profits before they'll knock off all the anti consumer BS.

Instead of making quality games, they've been caught up in pandering to techies with hardware that have microscopic libraries.

That capacity was only available 2 years after FF7 was released though. So even if they would have been sure of that possibility at development time, it just wouldn't have been an option. The end product would also have cost 3 times the disc version.

@@seriousblurs7996 N64 developers were ridiculously masterful at what they did with the hardware. Would find a solution. Of course Nintendo choosing the cartridge format was extremely backwards of them, but I guess it's became a staple of theirs since N64. Like following up cartridges with miniDVD - what were they thinking?

​@@wrmusic8736 Well, sure. But that is the case for most anything with limited resources. In the end though, there is only so much you can realistically do with what is given. A full Doom like on less than 100kb does exist. But aside from the novelty of it, it's just not worth the effort for most developers to go to such lengths. Dark Souls discs may be an extreme example, but there is likely tons (or kb) of pointless development garbage even on N64 carts. Oh I know what they were thinking. "Surely no one will buy those expensive mini DVD-Rs to pirate!" ;) I also think that originally those little discs were supposed to go in a caddy, sort of the next gen 64DD. But they skipped it to make them even cheaper. The hatch for the cube is an oddly bulky design, and the disc bay could otherwise be quite spacious.

​@@wrmusic8736anti piracy and longevity

Parasite Eve

Same.

Fools dont realize you can play Stellar Blade uncensored dont update it or play with your ps5 disconnected from the internet 🤦🏽‍♂️

I live in Internet blackspot. I can use mobile data but it's too temperamental to play live console/pc games. I tried satalite Internet but it's expensive, low data cap & latency is a problem. Last console I owned was ps3, I sold it a month after I got fed up of all the constant big updates needed.

Remember they also charged $600 for PS3. Then they reduced the price by removing backwards compatibility.
