Concord by far

 

[Fortress of Regrets]

Concord for sure. I still cackle like a maniac whenever I see that picture of the full character roster. I still don't understand who'd put millions upon millions of dollars into something like that and expect a commercial success. The level of brain rot and toxic positivity has to have been off the charts. Truly one for the ages, and hopefully a wake-up call for the industry.

 

[ArtHands]

And you're Blisted. Not wasting my time either on people who are uninterested in good faith discussion.

You didn't present a good faith discussion in the first place.

You are just unwilling to accept the fact the Concord is one of, if not the biggest flop.

No doubt.

Everything about the game from the lousy reviews and numbers of gamers playing to the lousy art and pronouns, and Sony buying the studio and then shutting it down. All at a big dollar cost.

Even amateur stuff like in the beta there was no join in progress gamers to help round out teams. So the second any team had players quit mid game, their team was shorthanded rest of match. The first MP shooter I played back in the day (Unreal) even had players who could join mid match.

The memes everyone made and streamers laughing at the game were icing on the cake. Or should I say icing on they cake? lol

Considering how bad the fisaco was, it can be argued it was corporate robbery so to speak. Of course, not the same thing as a banker stealing money from the vault. But people still made a lot of salaries for years making total junk. Then they would had received severance pay, and then government unemployment insurance pay outs. Robbery. In a perfect world, these employees should pay back the company for doing such a lousy job. It's a weird dynamic if you think about it when it comes to work and pay. Someone (or a team) can get paid good money for years, but churn out the crappiest product ever. And they get away with it still banking the wages.

A customer can refund a bad product and get their money back (at least most of the time). But a company can never get back wages from employees doing a shit job. In fact, to get rid of them a company even has to pay them more money (severance). Go figure.

Concord, not even close. It was everything wrong with Sony this gen in one disgusting package.

Another:"How can we lol about Concord today" Topic

They should never end. It's (and Sony's) failure should echo for an eternity.

 

[FoxMcChief]

Ok time to refresh some memories or real failure

Kinect

A lot worse than Concord

I'm pretty sure the Kinect sold very well. Something Concard knows nothing about. You know, because it failed so hard it was shut down days after its release and 12 the copies sold to non-Sony employees were all refunded.

I find it funniest independently from sales of a camera sold bundled with a famous console
There's more gameplay in the few hours Concord lived than in the whole Kinect Library

That's very unpleasant things you told me, seems that I offended your girlfriend... Did I?
I find that all the videos about Kinect are a lot more funny than all the meme produced in the last months
Have a cold shower and cool down

 

[Hudo]

The whole Concord thing is still funny.

 

[Hawk The Slayer]

Concord was the funniest especially when right before the release, the devs were so happy and hyped to release the game lol. When the game fail extremely badly, there was still a very small piece of hope as a free to play but then even that got canned completely. Last year was funny for the whole year since there were so many games that deserved to flop that did end up flopping or at very least below expectations like Kill the Justice League, Dustborn, Concord, Outlaw, Hellblade 2, Veilguard etc etc but Concord has to be number one.

 

[Azelover]

The funniest? 2006 Ken Kutaragi..

On the plus side for Concord employees, they got a free month of salaries doing dick all. When the game got initially canned, there was a one month gap until Sony announced Concord is totally dead and the studio would be shut down.

I wish I could sit at home getting free wages for a month doing nothing. Add in years of working on a crap game getting paid good money, and Sony would had also offered them severance pay. Actually sounds like a great gig. Do a lousy job, but get paid well. What a gift.
