TheStreet reports on their industry view of Sony and other industry players in this article about Sony's strategy and the results shown in the latest NPD numbers:
"Sony's latest PlayStation 3 console has stretched its lead over rival Microsoft's Xbox 360 last month, though it still lags behind Nintendo's Wii system, according to industry research firm The NPD Group.
Sony sold 405,500 PS3s, compared to 219,800 Xbox 360s but still has a long way to go before it catches up with the Wii, which sold 666,700 systems last month."
"Sony stumbled when it launched the expensive PS3 console a year-and-a-half ago and trailed its competitors for months. That's in contrast to its position as the clear market leader with the older PlayStation 2 console."

These groundbreaking video games changed gaming forever and drew in scores of fans in the process.
The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.
Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!
I played killzone 3 in 3d and it really changed the game per being immersive.
In vr, that would be even more awesome.
Funny you mention that... my son wanted to play some PS3 games in 3d on my PS tv and he was blown away by how good KZ3 was. It really was a great addition to the game. Im surprised there have not been more 3d games from that era being ported to the PSVR/VR2.
resistance 1-3, killzone 1-3, uncharted 1-3, uncharted golden abyss, folklore, socom 4 , motorstorm, twisted metal, MAG, heavenly sword
Killzone 2+3
Sly Thieves in Time
Crack in Time
God of War Ascension
Motorstorm
Modnation racer
Infamous 1+2
Killzone trilogy in VR would be amazing bonus points if they offer shadow fall.
There was a psvr1 Killzone project that supermassive was working on at one stage which wasn't up to scratch and Sony brand it back in house I was hoping we would see that on psvr2 eventually.
Personally I'd love to see some more love or acknowledgement of psvr2 from Sony in general it was a expensive headset and Sony barely acknowledge it's existence
The amount of work needed to remaster these games wouldn't be beneficial on a financial and business sense.. MGS4 would probably be the best bet as it would need the least amount of work!
The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer
The resistance series is str8 trash to me. Socom 3 I would welcome. Or killzone MP.
Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱
Bethesda’s new Indiana Jones game may have had its title revealed early ahead of the Xbox Developer Direct, and it’s surprisingly underwhelming.

Yeah but it's Indiana Jones, they've always had titles which sound so...adventurous. The name which makes you sound like you're going on a quest yourself.
This just sounds generic
Even if it was called "Indiana Jones and the Great ANCIENT Circle" sounds at least a tiny bit better.
Could be worse could be
Indiana Jones and lost pills 🤷🏿
Post your worse names bellow
Indiana Jones and the lost testicle.
Hitler has only got one ball, the other is in the Albert hall 😂🤣
its not really that funny...
its a name with zero context. it could have an explanation, or its a temporary name. of course its the internet so we must overreact.
the name doesn't matter as much as the game play will it be a third person like uncharted or tomb raider ill have to wait and see.
I'm guessing Wolfenstein would be the template in terms of mechanics and such, given the developers, but that's a guess.
Why? Machine Games have a good rep. Last Wolfenstein sucked but pretty sure that was Arkane.
I predict the game will be decent but unsuccessful - Indiana Jones’ last movie flopped and the gaming demographic doesn’t seem very interested in it either going by sales of other Indy games
It's an Xbox game, they will do anything to downplay the game and create negativity surrounding it. Attack the title, the graphics, the developer, and just vl chip away at it so people look down on it. It's been the way Sony has been doing things for the last few years. And the fanboys help by perpetuating it.
They left a word out starts with a "J" ends with "K" and has two other letters in-between.
ah.. yes...
Trophies are better than "achievements".
Why?
Because there's actual difficulty levels between them:
Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum.
Also, gamers can level up through them. Which is really cool.
xD of course! I <3 U SONY! just give me some Heavy Rain footage, some MAG, and FFVII Remake and i will make a devotion to u lol, god i love that company.
no really come on it has been on track senses they outsold the 360 in 07 haha
I don't really see Sony catching up in this gen for a WHILE. Especially since plans for the 80GB replacing the 40 with YET AGAIN no BC, which I still say is ridiculous considering that The PS2 still has at least 2 years of life left in it. Ah well, still glad I shelled out the $600 for my 60GB (now 320GB). Around here especially, old school 60 and 20's are still going for $600+ just because of the BC.
When 2011-2013 come around, Sony better fix the whole multi-SKU issue, because the wounds from it are just now starting to heal.
