From retards to retards.

I regret nothing.

You should regret being in light mode in 2025.

Steam CCU is only useful to determine who buys a game right away on Steam. It doesn't accurately predict a games long term success, nor how a game might perform on consoles. Especially for a late port like this. Horizon Zero Dawn had a peak CCU of 56k and has probably sold around 4-5 million copies on PC and over 20 million on PlayStation.

How do you know the bolded?

Imagine thinking that short term strategy is the same as long term strategy.

If Bungie is successful with Marathon, it'll set them up for success with Marathon and Destiny 3. Combined with Helldivers and in the future probably Gran Turismo and MLB.... and probably at least 1 AAA game a year, Sony will easily be clearing a billion in revenue generation a year on PC.

The cost of creating a launcher pales in comparison with the hundreds of millions they'd be losing to Steam every year.

Explain to me why Fortnite, Roblox, Minecraft, Genshin Impact, and Valorant aren't on Steam.

I see you edited your post. I didn't realize Sony stopped making games. Thanks for helping me realize that.

I think you are living in a dream world here.

Sony, may make their own launcher but I wouldn't give it a long shelf life. Are you saying it would be the only place to purchase PC Sony games. Because, I would love to see a company offer steam releases and then pull them from Steam store and for future releases. The backlash would be catastrophic for them.

56k was the Steam CCU and the game sold 3.3 million copies as of 2 years ago according to the leak (took 1.5 years to hit that number). Add another 2 years of sales onto that and it makes sense, various estimate sites put it around the 5 million mark as well.

This is true. I was having a discussion with a longtime friend about the time we were in school and used to swap N64 games. He said Superman 64 was one of the best games. I thought he was joking, but he was dead serious. Told him then that it was widely considered one of the worst games ever, and probably the absolute worst on the N64. He had no idea. He thoroughly enjoyed the game lol.

A friend of mine just came to my house a few weeks ago and was blown away when i told him about Tomb Raider The Angel of Darkness had a remaster. It was his favorite PS2 game back then, lmao. And i was like "ok dude...have fun i guess. there's the game, good luck". That guy started playing the game like those controls were the easiest shit to control ever.

Nostalgia can be a hell of a thing.

The first 5 minutes of controlling Ellie are utter cringe.

'SETH IS A BIGOT

BIGOT SANDWICHES'

Sounds very much the 'flavour' we will be getting with Intergalactic.

He apologised and gave her steak sandwiches - a rare commodity in a post-apocalyptical world. Instead Ellie continues to have a dildo up her arse.

PS3 games. MGS4, Tokyo Jungle, Asura's Wrath. All the cool shit, which I guess I could already emulate but I think it would be cool to have native versions.

Only Tokyo Jungle is PlayStation Studios?

So what's the next PlayStation Studios release on PC? Not counting Stellar Blade since that's technically 2nd party.

Gran Turismo 7? Maybe Astrobot?

Days Gone Remastered, Lost Soul Aside and Stellar Blade.

Sony triple A games are selling 15-20 million on a single platform while most triple A games are barely selling 10 million on 5 platforms.

DS2 in Spring 26 followed by GoY in Autumn probably.
They've pretty much ran out of older titles to port at this point.
GT7 could be a candidate, less sure about DS.

Kojima will probably just do the ds2 port themselves like they did last time, and it was an amazing port

Last time the game was ported by 505 publisher, this time it will seemingly be a PlayStation port.

505 is a publisher not a developer. Kojima did the port, and now they own the IP as well. No reason Sony would handle the port.

Imagine basing your whole personality off your allegiance to a fucking game launcher. The last time Valve made a game that anyone gave a shit about was 20 years ago. Everything you have or play came from a 3rd party publisher. Go play modded Skyrim for the 50th time on your shitty GTX 1060 3gb rig.

 

[Sooner]

Nobody asked for this junk. Did better than I expected.

Nobody asked for a runaway GOTY and one of the highest rated games of all time? Right before the second season of the massively popular TV show launches?

Sure, Jan.

 

[Killjoy-NL]

So, I take it this means that Avowed and Indy did poorly as well?

 

[Jrecard]

I'm enjoying it, I'd still be enjoying it if I was the only person on the ccu chart. Long live single player gaming.

Play what you like and ignore what you don't.

A publisher decides who's doing the port since it's the publisher who pays for that.
Who owns the IP is pretty much irrelevant to that process.

Same here. It's gameplay is absolutely top notch. Just finishing up Seattle Day 1.

Yeah, I have already heard a few cringe throw away lines and small stuff, but I can overlook it for now because of how incredible the gameplay is.

How Death Stranding PC delivers on Kojima Productions' original vision

Previously a Sony PlayStation 4 exclusive, Kojima Productions' Death Stranding arrives tomorrow on PC - and it's a port…

www.eurogamer.net

Well KojiPro did the port themselves.

 

[Roni]

Bought this and jumped straight into No Return. As I get older, these pure gameplay, rogue-likes modes are the shit for me. In and out, not fuss, minimal story stuff.
