Is Sony stretching the Playstation brand too thin? James, Josh, and Chris discuss this and more on the brand new show for The Life of Gaming, The Break Room! Casual water-cooler conversation in your face!
PlayStation Plus has improved the split of PS4 and PS5 players on its priciest tiers, but Sony continues to hide total subscriber numbers.
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 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.
This looks fun and affordable for fans of Retro Cabinet games.
Introducing Evercade Alpha, the first Evercade-compatible arcade machine. This bartop-sized arcade gives you everything you want in a home arcade machine with one big feature - full compatibility with the Evercade cartridge ecosystem.
I like the Mega Man one more as it has a better variety of games. Strider, Carrier Airwing, Final fight... The other is all SF. Plus i like that i can pop in any of my evercade carts to play as well.

This looks terrible. Capcom should have done the remake 😂 The animations and gameplay looks stiff.
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
In this video, they keep saying Sony isn't having a problem today of spreading themselves too thin. So it kind of makes the video pointless.
PS4, PS4 Pro, PSVR, PS Vita, PS Vue,PS Plus, PS Now are profitable for Sony. That's besides the movies, music and television shows they sell on the store.
The guy on the left in the video says Sony doesn't know how to make games. And he excludes every developer under Sony as being part of Sony. But gives props to Nintendo's internal teams. Nintendo bought developers too. Sony's developers would not have made their best games without Sony funding. Stupid opinion.
They speak of PS Vita TV. They mentioned playing vita games but totally exclude the fact that you could buy that little device and stream PS4 games to another room for those at home without buying another PS4. The device wasn't about Netflix or Hulu etc like some gamers wanted. It was for Vita and PS4. Now Sony has an app that allows you to stream their games to any supported device. So, that would make PSTV obsolete.
They mention PS move as a failure. But Sony sold over 15 million of them as an add on. And it continues to sell for VR. If you compare to the packed in wiimote, then it's possible. But that would mean Kinect sales were a failure too compared to the wiimote as a pack in. And I don't believe that. Failure means it doesn't work.IT DOES. Failure means it no longer sells. IT DOES. There's no failure.
The guys in the video aren't stepping back and seeing the evolution. Sony introduced motion controls with a camera. They introduced accuracy with a motion controller and a camera. Now they introduce VR with all of that together. And it all works. And Sony sells VR at a profit.
Until Sony starts failing in sales, hardware and software creation, then they are not spreading themselves too thin.
Doesn't seem to be doing any harm to their gaming subsidiary's business
