go Uncharted go

iAmPS35901d ago

This Nintendo Wii it's like a hooker, really fun the first 10 mins but, turns into a headache after you realized the money you spent on it/her was not worthy.

Edit: not talking about personal experience, I swear. ;D

Meus Renaissance5901d ago

Is it me or is Uncharted going up the charts? Go, go! Go! lol

Other than that, foolishly low sales for PS3 games.

Danja5901d ago

that's what I was saying also every week it moves up....but that's great Uncharted is an amazing game ...

Genesis55900d ago

Uncharted was a lot of fun to play.Good production values and top notch voice acting really helped too.

BLaZiN PRopHeT5901d ago

LO has Legs its a great game glad to see it

creeping judas5901d ago

the ps2 is still selling like hot cakes, but what games are they buying?? and by the looks of its for guitar hero. But what else are the ps2 buyers buying? with that amount of units going out, youd think there would be more ps2 games in the top??
Just curious.

Danja5901d ago

there probably buying older games...or probably used games IDK just an opinion....

Helldivers 2 Dev Wants It To Be Available Worldwide, Restrictions Are From PlayStation & Not Steam

The lack of worldwide availability of Arrowhead Studios' Helldivers 2 on Steam is due to restrictions from PlayStation, not Valve.

To be clear though, Steam does not restrict use of their platform in any country. So, to say that Sony delisted games in Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, and other similar regions is disingenuous. The taliban doesn't allow video games in Afghanistan.

There are many restrictions in many countries. Painting this as a false dichotomy of Sony or Valve ignores all other layers of what is going on.

Just be honest in your journalism about what countries are left out. Those countries should a) have internet access b) allow the game.

There's literally almost 170 countries and mentioned 3, and Taliban banned PUBG only, do you seriously think that these countries that had games all this time, suddenly decided to ban games when Sony wanted to put PSN as a restriction

anast1h ago

Sony would be stupid to let valve run the show. They would be bad at business if they did that.

Why Xbox believes it must cut costs and close studios

Companies, particularly public companies like Microsoft, need to grow.

i mean its pretty simple, they spent close to 30 billion in acquiring activision, they thought they'd make it bk no problem, and that didnt happen.

its just shit that because of MS's miscalculation alot of people lost their jobs.

Jingsing1h ago

This is exactly what many people said would happen including the CMA and FTC. Lies lies and more lies and they allowed a $69 billion buy out to happen.

gold_drake55m ago

oh yeh it was 70 billion. that was my bad haha even worse.

thesoftware73053m ago(Edited 48m ago)

gold,

You can't be serious, right?

Do you think that MS thought they would make 80bill in a year & Half? They haven't even released titles under MS yet, lol.

But in fact, that A/B revenue is already paying off, look at the last earnings call. That $80 billion is long-term money, my guy, no sane person/company would think they would make that back in any short-term situation, it's a long-term investment.

Let's play silly then. If MS's reason for laying off staff and closing studios was due(which it really was not) to the A/B deal, tell me what Sony's reason was for past studio closures, the recent 900-person layoffs, closing Sony London, shutting down Dreams, and closing Japan Studio? Zipper? Psygnosis? cuts at all their internal studios.

Keep in mind, you are claiming MS's reason is because of the A/B deal; please explain Sony's reason.

Hofstaderman44m ago

You actually still defending them? Sheesh.....

gold_drake43m ago

this is not a sony vs MS debate. dont make it something it isnt.

and of course not, but im pretty sure they thought they'd make more money after the deal. they didnt, and closed off some studios.

its pretty insane to think there is any other reason for the closure of studios in this case.

romulus2336m ago(Edited 35m ago)

(It really was) due to the Activision Blizzard deal and the loss of physical sales due to gamepass. You keep bringing up Sony in all your posts about this, stop deflecting and trying to change the topic, this is about MS and what they are doing.

anast1h ago

They are going to use AI for a large portion of the game development process. Upper management need bonuses and the shareholders need more money. So, people will lose their jobs.

Skuletor54m ago

Maybe they were already using AI to make business decisions, which would explain why they closed Hi-Fi Rush's studio, then said they need more games like Hi-Fi Rush not long after that announcement.

Crows9023m ago(Edited 23m ago)

They shouldn't have bought any studios. Some is okay...but they went on a shopping spree...stupid
