lol acting like it’s equivalent to ms numbers

Mr Logic4h ago

Uh...They're definitely not equivalent.

"Microsoft’s Xbox Game Pass service now has 34 million subscribers."

"the total number of PS Plus subscribers across all tiers was 47.4 million"

darthv724h ago(Edited 4h ago)

That PSN number seems like it should be much higher... especially when you consider that PS4 alone has a sell through of over 117m. To not even be at least half that is rather interesting.

To the XB side, having 34m to an install base of roughly 50m (XBO sell through) or even 85m (360 sell through) is a greater percentage of unit to member ratio than PSN.

That's not the "gotcha" you think it is Darth.

darthv724m ago

^^it's not supposed to be bloop.... it's just an interesting observation.

shinoff21833h ago(Edited 3h ago)

What. Definitely more os plus subscribers but that makes sense due to actual console sales

Darth the difference between the bases are huge your right but you gotta think. Ps players buy more games, where as the Xbox base relies on gamepass for their gaming. So it makes perfect sense

darthv723h ago(Edited 3h ago)

What makes perfect sense though? You say PS players buy more games... so then logically there should be more PS+ subscribers given the increased number of online multiplayer games in the PS4 generation alone. The PS4 was the first time that + was required for online play much like Gold was for 360 users.

Keep in mind we are talking subscribers, not simply XB/PS users. I assume you meant to say offline single player games, which is most likely true as well. That gen also saw a significant increase in games with an online component comparted to the previous gen.

I for one will be going back to essential at the next renewal. When I feel a game is good & right up my alley, I’ll check trusted reviews & just buy it.

I have the top tier until 2028 as they gave me a massive discount for all the years I had left but I’ll most likely go to essential as well. I buy my games but my kids do use the service occasionally. They do prefer to own their games as well since any game can leave the rental service at some point and they don’t like that idea. They mostly use it to demo games then ask me to buy games if they really like it.

I would like to see Sony add a fourth tier of PS Plus for people who just want to be able to play games online without any of the perks like monthly games, store discounts, or anything like that, and it should cost $20 annually, $30 maximum. There’s no way I’m paying $80 just to play games online. Even the original $60 fee was too much, and I would often wait for sales to re-up my subscription.

Hope SH2 gets more polish before release.

P_Bomb23h ago

I’m not paying $94 CAD for what they’ve shown me. Looks rough as sin.

Fishy Fingers23h ago

Ive seen better lip syncing during a Punch and Judy show

Sonic188123h ago(Edited 23h ago)

This looks terrible. Capcom should have done the remake 😂 The animations and gameplay looks stiff.

-Foxtrot23h ago(Edited 22h ago)

Okay. I was saying before in another article how SH2 looked better than the last trailer, which is true but damn this looks rough as hell.

I wanted RE4 / Dead Space remake quality

Sonic188122h ago(Edited 22h ago)

I wouldn't buy it for $70 dollars. Maybe when it's on sale.

-Foxtrot22h ago

Yeah full price, deluxe editions, Konami are f***** tripping here.

CrimsonWing6922h ago

The characters look terrible to me… like it’s distracting.

I will give this game a chance!!! let's go!

Cheat providers for competitive games should be illegal.

Rynxie22h ago(Edited 22h ago)

This is what developers and manufacturers should do. I know going after cheat devices/makers is a cat and mouse game, and cost money. However, they can get that money back by sueing these manufacturers of cheat devices. Take a page from Nintendo's playbook.
