Investors have to be a special kind of gigabrain.

"Sony did something to fleece the consumers more, let's buy more of their stock because this will surely make Sony more money, after all pissing off your whole customer base is good for business!"

Sony barely tries to hide how much they think their customers are retarded goy cattle that will eat shit on command

I'm starting to think they saw the Rockstar leaks and are now confident the next generation can be kept afloat purely by GTA Online and other live service garbage's microtransactions in the last days of this gen and the next. I personally think they are flying too close to the sun with this but we will see...

There's always going to be an audience of niggercattle to buy consoles, but there's a reason that they chose Sony's feed lot versus the other two. If they're just going to rely on rentseeking going forward, what do they expect people to get a PS6 over an Xbox Whatever The Fuck or Switch for?

investors don't care about anything other than return of their investment, that's it.

Part III of the FF7 Remake has multiple battle passes for some fucking reason.

This is the most raped JRPG.

More Storyline after the third game, inject that into my veins.

 

[EpicGamerMoment]

They shadow dropped Black Ops 1&2 for PS4 and 5 and surprise surprise the DLCs are not included. They're charging $30 for map packs of a 16 year old game.

Shareholders are starting to ask questions about the brand image and the fact that the boss himself sold a significant portion of his shares. We got a boost with the announcement of 100% digital by 2028. But not sure the forecast will be so good by the end of the month.

That's on-brand for Activision even before MS bought them.

wait they stretched out a one game remake to 3 games and now their plan is dlc? Squares worst then r*

I would have bought those games if they included all the DLC. But after buying everything, it would have been as much as a new AAA game. Fuck that

wait they stretched out a one game remake to 3 games and now their plan is dlc? Squares worst then r*

Well they did remove all the FF characters from KH3 and then put them back in with ReMind. I still think that was an awful decision

 

[Day of the Cope]

You're right, but the average consoomer is unfortunately a fucking retard and the rest of us get to deal with their dumb decision making. That's why I said this shit started 20 years ago, because it did and even though consoomers have been complaining, they keep opening up their wallets.

I can actually think of one recent-ish consumer victory based purely off of not buying the fucking product. That would be ATSC 3.0 tuners for digital broadcast TV in the US because the NAB(national association of broadcasters) tried to implement fucking internet access required DRM to watch broadcast TV. I don't think I need to elaborate on how fucking stupid that is.

Dumb consoomers are why we have the preorder bonuses, battle passes, subscriptions just to play multiplayer, microtransactions that aren't even just cosmetics anymore, 100 different streaming services, the subscriptions for features built into cars, it took government legislation to get phone companies to use one basic standard cable, etc. This shit goes way beyond just game consoles, because the dumb consoomers can't just not spend their fucking money and let a feature/product/company just fail.

Jim Sterling is a fatass tranny but I'll never forget one thing he said before trooning out because it's still true to this very day: voting with your wallet doesn't work, being as annoying as fucking possible does.

Jim Sterling is a fatass tranny but I'll never forget one thing he said before trooning out because it's still true to this very day: voting with your wallet doesn't work, being as annoying as fucking possible does.

If that were true then the sports game morons complaining every year about the same shit, would be seeing change, but they don't and continue to buy the same slop every year. The problem with voting with your wallet is that the millions of retarded consoomers must consoom.

The one time this shit worked in gaming, was the Deus Ex power up your preorder bullshit, because not only were people complaining but the preorder numbers were obviously low. And while Jim Sterling may think he had something to do with that, he didn't. Square/Enix simply pulled the trigger on retarded single player mtx bonus preorder and 3 days early bullshit sooner than everyone else did and now it's practically an industry standard.

The ATSC 3.0 broadcast DRM bullshit was driven to failure by enough people choosing not to consoom. Anyone having bought a PS5 having not realized this shit with online purchases on their console after the PS3 and PS4 is an idiot consoomer that has contributed what Sony is currently doing with regard to physical media and to whatever the PS6 ends up being. If as many people actually bought physical only instead of just what the incredibly vocal minority would have you think, they wouldn't have bothered with this shit yet.

Tens of thousands of people throwing a fit online is meaningless against millions of consoomers, and Jim Sterling is a tranny with a dead career.

Can't you just use a hacked PS3 to cheat in the online-locked trophies at this point?, i doubt the people ho's assigned to moderate whatever's left of the PS3 infrastructure even cares by now.

 

[Leaf Wage Slave Jr]

Possibly late, but a surprise opponent of Sony deciding to end Physical Media - the goddamn French.

Is it just someone making noise to be elected, probably, but it's nice to see even the goddamn French clowning on Sony.

This most recent war for Israel has been great for Noticing insider trading and blatant market manipulation kikery...

How brave of the frogs to take on a video game/movie company instead of the rape happy muslim imports polluting their land.

Jason Schreier is a faggot, but because he comes from access journalism he has insight into the business side of things. The relevant numbers are:
The cost of physical retail is about 35%, combining both the retailer cut and the cost of manufacture etc (obviously, not a totally fixed cost, and a Switch cartridge costs more than a Blu-ray disc). This means that a first-party game will make about 53% more revenue/profit from a digital sale than a physical sale (first party software is a small part of revenue for Playstation).
The cost of a Playstation license is 15% of the sale (or $10.50 for a $70 game), but Playstation takes 30% of each digital sale. This means that, for third-party games, Playstation will make double the revenue/profit from a digital sale than a physical sale.
The combination of these two factors means that third party publishers (such as Take Two/Rockstar) get only 50% from a physical sale, but will get 70% from a digital sale. This means that they make 40% more revenue/profit from a digital sale than a physical sale.
