Single player games are why I bought a PS5. All of Sony’s best games are narrative driven, single player games. I don’t care about online multiplayer games
Issue is they arnt making enough money off them without bringing them to other platforms.. they are trying live service for sustained revenue so they can avoid putting their games on other platforms but so far that's failing. So they could just say screw it and just go back to only doing single player but then their gamers need to also be ok with the games then being multiplat
Stop chasing online trends and go back to setting them. Sony own some of the best singleplayer development studioes. Let them go back and do what they do best.
I know Sony went way off course with current Gen same with Xbox neither have any must own exclusives and we are half way through the consoles life cycle I've never seen this with any other console gens something has changed and for the worst.
Sony should have listened to the gamers and made Days Gone 2. I only play Sony Playstation because of their great single player story driven action adventure games.

Hey @Kiárán92, First, I said "Borderline," not that it was a masterpiece. It has flaws, but I it was used to express it was really good. Obviously, opinions differ-some people think GTA 5 is a 10/10, but I totally disagree.
@ I know what “borderline” means. But, if it isn’t a masterpiece, but a “borderline masterpiece” then what is it then exactly? . Good?, great? Phenomenal? In my world, a masterpiece is perfect, flawless etc. days gone is not a masterpiece and it’s not even close. - It was very buggy at launch (in some areas it still is), -the stealth missions were never really fun to play and were genuinely boring - the story was generic and I’ve noticed I’m not alone in saying that. -It takes a long time to get going. - low mission variety - while I didn’t have a problem with the writing, I’m aware a lot didn’t like it, nor liked Deacon either. Personally I liked him because he was different. The game is nowhere near a masterpiece.
Hey @Kiárán92, "good," "great," "phenomenal"... those are all subjective, you know? I don't see how that helps. We all see things differently, and some flaws bother people more than others. Some love *Dark Souls* but hate *Sekiro*; some love *Halo* but hate *Call of Duty*. We could probably both describe similar things about the game, focusing on specific details. Generic story, lol... saving the loved one is a cliché? But almost every game or movie does it. Although, so many things were different from other games I've played, but I'm not gonna argue. You experienced it differently, and that's cool. Some people love *Assassin's Creed*, others think it's trash after Ezio.
@ I respectfully disagree. Your overall enjoyment of media will be subjective. Like, I could find Movie (A) scary, but you didn’t. I might find movie (B) hilarious, but you dull and boring. However, when it comes to reviewing, everyone knows what “good” means and so on. “But almost every game or movie does it” yup, that’s a cliche, my friend. I’m not taking a swipe at you, and I apologise if it’s coming across that way. I’m just saying this game isn’t a masterpiece, and no one should view it as such, the game has too many flaws for it to be considered that, even if you find it a masterpiece you can’t deny it isn’t perfect either.
So 6 of Sonys 12 live service games have been cancelled - Spiderman, God of war, Last of us, Concord, Twisted metal and Sony bend game. Then 3 so far succesful - Helldivers 2, Gran turismo 7 and Mlb. Then we have 3 more incoming - Horizon, Marathon and Fair games. I was so disappointed when i read about Sonys plan about 12 live services games few years ago. Finally soon we are done with all those live service games. Hope Sony never does anything stupid like this again. So many years and money wasted. We could got many new Ips, Sequels, Spinoffs, Reboots, Remakes or Remasters.
@@MatthewSatisfaction It did release before Sony announced about those 12 Live service games but they count it towards the 12 live services games including Gran turismo 7 and Mlb the show
Oh remember, its actually Faitgame$ (which tells it all). Marithon will flop with dollar sign garbage and Horizon people are just sick of due to Sony shoving the ok at best IP down our throats.
God of War Ragnarök and Horizon Forbidden West were both cross gen sure but we've also had Spiderman 2, Returnal, Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart, Gran Turismo 7, Demons Souls remake, Helldivers 2 and two Astro Bot games. Feels like people are being overly dramatic about lack of games.
This March is Bloodborne's 10th anniversary and God of War's 20th anniversary. I'm not expecting current Sony to do anything, since it's what they do best, but it would be nice if they grew a brain.
Hopefully they’re realizing live service is a shit racket and start focusing on their singular experiences, none of their major properties are live service.
@@RobinsonV007- Nothing was "woke" about The Last of Us 2. 🙄 It was just bad storytelling & obnoxious AF that we had to play as Abby for ½ the f*cking game. The way Joel was killed sucked too. But none of that is because "woke". Ya'll say this dumb sh*t about everything at this point, and it is beyond insufferable. There was plenty of bad storytelling happening & it definitely went in a direction we weren't expecting that it would go, (ie: many of us thought Elly would be killing Fireflies or whatever ), but instead, the creators decided to have us playing as a character we didn't know... and that had absolutely nothing to do w/the 1st game. It was jarring & annoying for sure. But there's nothing "woke" about it. 🤦🏻♀️😒 And if you're gonna bring up Elly being gay I mean... so??! We already knew about THAT from playing the dlc of the 1st game. That sh*t is old news. In fact, the only thing new is ... Nowadays, ya'll label absolutely everything & anything you don't like as being "woke", even when it doesn't make sense! Hell, even the way that you use the word "woke" itself, doesn't make any sense, because it wasn't your culture who started saying that slang in the 1st place. Ya'll don't even use the word correctly. You just appropriated it (like you do everything else), and turned it into a code word to use, so that you could b*tch & moan about minorities & gay people, w/out being labeled a bigot for it. Truly I cannot WAIT for the day when we can just go back to calling bad storytelling what it actually IS: bad storytelling. lol Ya'll cry & whine and insert **your** politics, into everything FAR MORE than the people you complain about...
Sony is definitely fucking up and your video didn’t even touch on the insanely high price of the PS5 Pro and the accessories they’ve been launching. They are just being too greedy
I'm over sony. Never buying another console again. I got a ps5 day of drop. Loved it. Now, been twiddling my thumbs for new games and all I get are ports and remasters. Consoles are dead. My first system since Xbox 360...what a waste of huge potential
Both Xbox and PlayStation are losing what made them special. There will be no reason to buy from them if they continue on this path regardless of GamePass, PS Plus, and whatever boring Live Service is cooked up next. Steam and GOG are the way to go if you value how games were made before this current and somewhat previous generation.
@@OscarG787 I kinda hate that Xbox is going this direction. I'm not a fanboy, but those games are part of what made Xbox, Xbox. Now they're going down the path of Sega and Atari.
Yeah Steam and GoG... and a $2000 PC. Spare me with the consoles are dying nonsense. Go outside and get a reality check. Most people are never going to spend that much to play games on a computer. You're delusional if you think consoles are ever going away. Gamers can't complain about a $700 console that plays games well but don't have anything to say about a computer twice or 3 times the price for better performance or even the adequate equivalent.
That could be the tag line for most corporations. If I owned a company and made $1 million dollars after expenses but the next year I also still made $1 million that would be considered a bad thing in the eyes of shareholders, gotta always have growth and more, more, more money. Companies are all about servicing the shareholders, not their customers.
The PS5 is directionless. Overrated generation, overrated console, The games themselves are good, but the brand has become a shell of its former self and the company has way too much baggage of poor business decisions and lackluster leadership. Competition is king and Sony, XBOX, and Nintendo are still competition and not a shitty console wars bickering. Forget the PS6 because a “crash” is coming.
Sony has shot themselves in the foot. Anyone who cares about high-end graphics will not think twice about shelling out on a decent high-end PC that is more advanced than the laughable PS5 Pro. With Sony and XBox exclusives now being available on PC, there is no reason whatsoever for anyone to invest in a Sony or Microsoft console anymore.
Remember when Sony was chastising EA for saying single-player gaming was dead? We buy Sony for the single-player games. NO ONE wants to pay money to use their own internet. Here we are…..halfway through PS5, and nothing is coming. Horizon and GofW were cross-gen titles. Naughty Dog finally announced something, and everyone was like 👎🏼. I regret buying a PS5. I should have upgraded my PC or bought a new one because all I play are PC games running on PS5, or PS4 games.
After the ps3 era, Sony's first party output has been very poor. The fanboys will jump at this comment but Sony hasn't release any games on the ps5, atleast not enough.
To be fair to 1st comment, not saying right or wrong, but Is 5 games you listed enough since ps4 launch almost 12 years ago? I personally think that's poor for any console.
You're not entirely wrong, but you gotta remember alot of games were created at the end of the PS4 lifetime, and were also made for the PS5. Just because it wasn't next gen exclusive doesn't mean we didn't get new games.
This is what happens when you have a fanbase that deep throat's a corporation for so long instead of making a stand and demanding better. I play on Playstation and i'm saying this. 👀
Sony is banking on one of these live service games to hit to make up for that Call of Duty money, That Microsoft buyout hurt them, Sony said themselves that money was used to fund a lot of their first party titles, Microsoft knew what they were doing with that acquisition, Microsoft might be in 3rd place right now, but they are playing a game of chess, Fanboys keep bragging about 60 million consoles sold but Sony isn't making the money back on software when these first party titles are only selling one million or two with over 60 million consoles out there. half of these gamers are playing games like COD, Gta 5 , NBA 2K etc... but let the fanboys keep worrying about Microsoft, they keep saying Microsoft is dead, but don't see what's happening in front of them.
This has been the most disappointing Sony generation ever. Barely any first studio games, and most of the ones that came out were cross gen on PS4. The PSVR2 is also barely supported and costed a LOT of money, and now the PS5pro is also barely seeing any huge improvements. Sony used to be my favorite company ever. I really hope they gain my trust back and stop being greedy and not being there for the fans that made them so successful.
The question is can Sony make single purchase 1st player games with sensible budgets? The whole reason they went both feet in with live service games was they expected higher customer spend on these games. Younger gamers don’t seem to be adopting the console model, and the thought of £800+ plus consoles and £100 games puts me off buying a PS6.
The industry don't want regular people playing games no more so we are going to become hackers and pirates.. we will not tolerate BS from any industry 😂😂😂😂yo ho ho and a bottle of rum
After concord I’m not suprised they shutting shit down . I try to tell people competition is always good for the consumer . Xbox is damn near dead so they think they can do whatever they want since they are the leading console . The switch leads in sales but that’s not PlayStations direct competition and we all know that . With the success of astrobot , god of war , horizon , tlou, devs not releasing certain games on Xbox , etc they are getting big headed like they did with the ps3
I'm such a true gamer, the PS5 literally made my depression really bad. This generation of gaming isn't really current gen. We're still stuck with last gen.
@@stijnvonck1431yes I can count the good games on 1 hand, the rest is only remastered bs games.Sony already working on PS6 is more sad, then you get remastered remastered remastered games for PS6.😂
Everyone does realize the business is not JUST selling consoles. It’s only part of it. The ACTUAL most important part of the business is selling software. For some reason, y’all talk about Sony as if they don’t have to worry about that second part for their console to even be profitable
This just goes to show that Sony should have just continued on from where they left off with PS4. Instead of constantly chasing that money printing online game, that will allow them to be lazy and just cash in forever.
I warned people when ps5 info was slow to come that Sony was getting to cocky. I was attacked for it. I still stand by that several years later. Evidence continues to pile just in last year with the live service nonsense and ps5 pro
already halfway of its generation and all we got are a bunch of remakes and remasters, how many more versions of spiderman, the last of us and gta5 are they planning to milk? sony really ran out of creative juice these past few years.
There’s no doubt the selection of single player content is skimpier and it’s surely disappointing, but we need to remember to vote with our wallets and stop buying/playing live service titles if we want them to stop being made.That simple. SONY I think got the message with Concord but it’s gonna take a few years to see any shift back to single player take effect. Until then we need to remember we are complicit in this as well.
I still play on PS4. Give me a new Ace Combat and Armored Core game that runs smoothly, then I'll upgrade. PS2 had three Ace Combat mainline games; here on PS4, we only got one.
They have competition its just software competition not hardware when ever Sony drops a new game and if halo and gears is coming to PlayStation, they are competing with Sonys games on they own consoles its not a good looks if Microsoft games do better then your own games on your own platform
@Grayson950815 your right quality is only determined by sales. That's why games like fifa and Madden are top of the best games of the year list every year....oh wait....
Should leave the live service by 3rd party dev and sony focus on single player what you amazing for I know the intention is to raise ps+ member so the game set at lowest price but not f2p Tbh games like elden ring or souls series is perfect for ps+, you have 1 under your sleeve it's called bloodborne I know, crazy right
What ever happened to Warhawk, Resistance, Crazy Taxi, Burnout, Socom, Army of Two, Sly Cooper, Heavenly Sword, ManHunt, etc etc. I can go on with classic games you can bring back with sequels, remasters or remakes.
A Days Gone 2 could have been SONY'S answer to State of Decay. They could have easily made in a live service game but they place monetization at the forefront which is always a bad idea. Please bring back Twisted Metal.
Oh ffs here we go again. 🤦🏻♀️😒 None of it is because of "woke". Ya'll say this dumb sh*t about everything at this point, and it is beyond insufferable.

You DO realize that pretty much all of the top CEOs & Upper Management of these companies (you know, the people MOST in charge of all the decision making) are white people, right?! 🥴🤡 You absolute buffoon...
I think at this point Sony is desperately preparing for the rainy day. The rainy day being the end of Microsoft's legal obligation to release COD on PS5.
The success of the PS5 is largely based off of legacy fandom from the PS4 era. The current situation is due to a huge amount of turnover in upper level personnel. It started with Jim Ryan taking over as CEO. He is not and was never a gamer. He is just a numbers guy. Behind him started a trend of PlayStation removing or demoting all of their key personalities from positions of influence. Enter the era of Herman Hulst, who clearly is in way over his head, and here we are. The worst is yet to come, though. With MS bowing out of the hardware scene, we are all about to enter an era of extremely customer-unfriendly policies from Sony. All you have to do is look at how they behaved during the PS3 launch to see where things are headed.
Since I bought my PS5 at launch my 3 most played games are Witcher 3, Tomb raider remaster and Skyrim. My only pre ordered game for 2025 are Tomb raider 4-6 remaster and Snake eater remaster. I paid full price for a remaster of Dead space and Silent hill 2. It’s not been great has it?
I'm enjoying the PS5 due to HDD speed, bc and 60fps finally standard, but software wise it has been monumental disappointment. From dropping great singleplayer IPs, to going along with temporary social trends, or from offering close to no support to PSVR2, to not being able to see the potential of Dreams (their most unique IP) on PC, etc, etc, Sony Playstation doesn't really look like a company with 3 decades of experience in this industry!
Sony has turned into a trash company, they want to be Apple now and make you buy a new set of 80$ controllers for each system. Nothing can be backwards compatible, please buy our remakes of last generation games.
So nice to see that Sony Computer Entertainment is now responding to the fact that multiplayer online games are sharply declining in favor of single player games since 5 years ago.
At the moment I have no intention of (and no interest in) getting a PS6, I used to play PlayStation exclusively before the PS5, but now that I have a PC and Switch I will probably stick with those next gen.
A few live-service games here or there is fine, but the *bread and butter* of gaming has always been single-player games. If you give players a wide roster to choose from, featuring both new IP and established IP, it would be difficult to complain. Benching so many beloved IPs such as Ape Escape, Sly Cooper, Musashi, Jak and Daxter, Gravity Rush, Spyro, Crash, Classic Tomb Raider, Medievil etc. and doing nothing with them was a colossal mistake on Sony's end. Lets pretend development costs weren't an issue for a moment. What would an ideal Sony gaming landscape look like? - You'd have brand new IPs coming out - You'd have legacy IPs still receiving new games - You'd have a variety of genres, from platformers, racing, puzzles, shooters, life-sims, visual novels, farming sims, Turn-based RPGs, Action RPGs, Early Childhood Games, Edutainment Titles, Adventure Games -- not just interactive movies/live-service titles - You'd have 2-3 live-service titles available alongside F2P games - You'd have a Playstation Store that offers a vast catalogue of titles to purchase and download, from old, new, niche and esoteric - There'd be no monopolizing push to consolidate everything digitally In an ideal ecosystem, Crash, Spyro, Lara Croft, Sly, Jak, Nathan Drake, Kratos, Kat, Joel, Aloy and Helldivers could coexist together.
I suspect the generation of gamers that made the PS2 and PS4 generations so successful are not interested in live service games. The younger generation that would play a live action game is unemployed and busy dancing on tik tok
I'm sick and tired of all push for online-multiplayer games and even more so on subscription based games. Non of this I can call genuine gaming no matter how big they claim to be. They all lack soul, purpose and offer nothing of value. And when its servers are down, they are only but a memory for existence. Nothing left to show for it.
Good example of CORPORATE GREED. They make top single player games, but it doesn't mean they can do it all. They aiming for the sky but fall and landed on their faces....it hurts.
Guys, you do remember COVID right? Remember how there was a major setback of years worth of projects, and some had to dismantle completely? That was literally during their first year of the ps5 release. Horrible timing. Use your heads.
remember how naughty Dog used to be the best game studio in the world, and now they’re not even in the top three of Sunny‘s first party. What happened to them?
@patriknordin2274 Jak and Daxter was actually pretty good. Too bad that most, if not all of the talented people that worked on those games no longer work at the studio.
The fact that none of these cancellations/failures bothered me is because I don't care at all about Online gaming. Of course the fact so many resources are utilized on them is bothering. But just like Rockstar the Industry gets lazy and they want their billion dollar cow rather than releasing their next great game. But even then my backlog is so massive that I have supplies to survive this time of industry turmoil.
Single player games are why I bought a PS5. All of Sony’s best games are narrative driven, single player games. I don’t care about online multiplayer games

I am still salty about people hating on Days Gone and it not getting a sequel... In my opinion, it was a borderline masterpiece.
Good, yes. Masterpiece? Hell no! Ha
Hey @Kiárán92, First, I said "Borderline," not that it was a masterpiece. It has flaws, but I it was used to express it was really good. Obviously, opinions differ-some people think GTA 5 is a 10/10, but I totally disagree.
@ I know what “borderline” means. But, if it isn’t a masterpiece, but a “borderline masterpiece” then what is it then exactly? . Good?, great? Phenomenal?
In my world, a masterpiece is perfect, flawless etc. days gone is not a masterpiece and it’s not even close.
- It was very buggy at launch (in some areas it still is),
-the stealth missions were never really fun to play and were genuinely boring
- the story was generic and I’ve noticed I’m not alone in saying that.
-It takes a long time to get going.
- low mission variety
- while I didn’t have a problem with the writing, I’m aware a lot didn’t like it, nor liked Deacon either. Personally I liked him because he was different.
The game is nowhere near a masterpiece.
Hey @Kiárán92, "good," "great," "phenomenal"... those are all subjective, you know? I don't see how that helps. We all see things differently, and some flaws bother people more than others. Some love *Dark Souls* but hate *Sekiro*; some love *Halo* but hate *Call of Duty*. We could probably both describe similar things about the game, focusing on specific details. Generic story, lol... saving the loved one is a cliché? But almost every game or movie does it. Although, so many things were different from other games I've played, but I'm not gonna argue. You experienced it differently, and that's cool. Some people love *Assassin's Creed*, others think it's trash after Ezio.
@ I respectfully disagree. Your overall enjoyment of media will be subjective. Like, I could find Movie (A) scary, but you didn’t. I might find movie (B) hilarious, but you dull and boring.
However, when it comes to reviewing, everyone knows what “good” means and so on.
“But almost every game or movie does it” yup, that’s a cliche, my friend. I’m not taking a swipe at you, and I apologise if it’s coming across that way. I’m just saying this game isn’t a masterpiece, and no one should view it as such, the game has too many flaws for it to be considered that, even if you find it a masterpiece you can’t deny it isn’t perfect either.
So 6 of Sonys 12 live service games have been cancelled - Spiderman, God of war, Last of us, Concord, Twisted metal and Sony bend game.
Then 3 so far succesful - Helldivers 2, Gran turismo 7 and Mlb.
Then we have 3 more incoming - Horizon, Marathon and Fair games.
I was so disappointed when i read about Sonys plan about 12 live services games few years ago. Finally soon we are done with all those live service games. Hope Sony never does anything stupid like this again. So many years and money wasted. We could got many new Ips, Sequels, Spinoffs, Reboots, Remakes or Remasters.
Dunno if Gran Turismo was part of the 12 didn’t it release before they announced it?
@@MatthewSatisfaction It did release before Sony announced about those 12 Live service games but they count it towards the 12 live services games including Gran turismo 7 and Mlb the show
Yeah this is all the new guys fixing Jim Ryan mistakes.
Oh remember, its actually Faitgame$ (which tells it all). Marithon will flop with dollar sign garbage and Horizon people are just sick of due to Sony shoving the ok at best IP down our throats.
Horizon is a possiblr flop, marathon is a sure failure.
We want Days Gone 2 and 3 . Not some Concord bollocks .
Days didn't get enough support yall waited for a sell .
Yeah like you played it. I played days gone and it was like 2/10
@lablount2910 come on, mate, it's coming from someone who loves concord. 🤣
@@keitkoppel2754 did you play concord?
Yes indeed. We did not even want concord😅😅
God of War Ragnarök and Horizon Forbidden West were both cross gen sure but we've also had Spiderman 2, Returnal, Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart, Gran Turismo 7, Demons Souls remake, Helldivers 2 and two Astro Bot games. Feels like people are being overly dramatic about lack of games.
That's not alot of games and don't add remasters.
A company of this caliber like Sony should be releasing at least 3 bangers per year.
Live service games dont work ask WB
This March is Bloodborne's 10th anniversary and God of War's 20th anniversary. I'm not expecting current Sony to do anything, since it's what they do best, but it would be nice if they grew a brain.
What the hell is going on? Easy. They moved their HQ to California.
Hopefully they’re realizing live service is a shit racket and start focusing on their singular experiences, none of their major properties are live service.
That's why they're panicking they need a live service to hit
The solution to these problem is simple:
bluepoint works to remaster bloodborne
bend works on days gone 2
Just imagine Sony waking up and them making a new Sly Cooper game and Jak and Daxter. And maybe even a new Uncharted or The Last of Us part 3.
I wish
Lol everything but the last one
@@zappbrannigan4170 imagine a The Last of Us part 3 and we skip the woke part and fire the woke people who worked on the story and game. 🤩
Wouldn’t that kinda be up to naughty dog as well they made all those games…
@@RobinsonV007- Nothing was "woke" about The Last of Us 2. 🙄 It was just bad storytelling & obnoxious AF that we had to play as Abby for ½ the f*cking game. The way Joel was killed sucked too. But none of that is because "woke".
Ya'll say this dumb sh*t about everything at this point, and it is beyond insufferable. There was plenty of bad storytelling happening & it definitely went in a direction we weren't expecting that it would go, (ie: many of us thought Elly would be killing Fireflies or whatever ), but instead, the creators decided to have us playing as a character we didn't know... and that had absolutely nothing to do w/the 1st game. It was jarring & annoying for sure.
But there's nothing "woke" about it. 🤦🏻♀️😒
And if you're gonna bring up Elly being gay I mean... so??! We already knew about THAT from playing the dlc of the 1st game. That sh*t is old news. In fact, the only thing new is ...
Nowadays, ya'll label absolutely everything & anything you don't like as being "woke", even when it doesn't make sense! Hell, even the way that you use the word "woke" itself, doesn't make any sense, because it wasn't your culture who started saying that slang in the 1st place.
Ya'll don't even use the word correctly. You just appropriated it (like you do everything else), and turned it into a code word to use, so that you could b*tch & moan about minorities & gay people, w/out being labeled a bigot for it.
Truly I cannot WAIT for the day when we can just go back to calling bad storytelling what it actually IS: bad storytelling. lol Ya'll cry & whine and insert **your** politics, into everything FAR MORE than the people you complain about...
Every since PlayStation moved thier head quarters to Cali and out of Japan it’s been down hill
100%
Having bluepoint work on a live service game is the biggest waste of a few years Sony have done to an in-house studio.
They went Woke live service…. Cringe
okay PLEASE explain how live service is "woke". Literally everyone hates live service games
@ live service and woke lol
Live services are the opposite of woke, chasing niche interests instead of recognising what most people want.
@@jesss2830 if you do not define concord as a woke live service game, you gotta be dumb af
Sony needs to stop doing live service games which aren’t interesting but so boring in my opinion.
Sony is definitely fucking up and your video didn’t even touch on the insanely high price of the PS5 Pro and the accessories they’ve been launching. They are just being too greedy
"Misguided"? More like "Unneeded"
I'm over sony. Never buying another console again. I got a ps5 day of drop. Loved it. Now, been twiddling my thumbs for new games and all I get are ports and remasters. Consoles are dead. My first system since Xbox 360...what a waste of huge potential
Thanks for almost nothing former ceo Ryan. Who chased trends and didnt know a thing about video games. Shawn Layden best sony ceo EVER.🤓
Trend as you call it started 15 years ago. Just because it didn't use the term world of tanks is live service 😮
I damn near regret getting a PS5. I miss the Xbox 360 days.
Both Xbox and PlayStation are losing what made them special. There will be no reason to buy from them if they continue on this path regardless of GamePass, PS Plus, and whatever boring Live Service is cooked up next.
Steam and GOG are the way to go if you value how games were made before this current and somewhat previous generation.
This decision was bad but PS5 is still good. PC has to wait for most new PlayStation games
There is nothing good about the Steam and buying "games". You only have licence to play games, you don't own any electronic games.
@@Brownaut1993 still surprised that gears and halos coming to PlayStation.
@@OscarG787
I kinda hate that Xbox is going this direction. I'm not a fanboy, but those games are part of what made Xbox, Xbox. Now they're going down the path of Sega and Atari.
Yeah Steam and GoG... and a $2000 PC. Spare me with the consoles are dying nonsense. Go outside and get a reality check. Most people are never going to spend that much to play games on a computer. You're delusional if you think consoles are ever going away. Gamers can't complain about a $700 console that plays games well but don't have anything to say about a computer twice or 3 times the price for better performance or even the adequate equivalent.
It’s crazy that we’re talking about the PS6, while the PS5 is still $500
Price went up too not down like it’s been since ps1 days
Sony: Greed has no limit
That could be the tag line for most corporations. If I owned a company and made $1 million dollars after expenses but the next year I also still made $1 million that would be considered a bad thing in the eyes of shareholders, gotta always have growth and more, more, more money. Companies are all about servicing the shareholders, not their customers.
Still didnt upgraded to ps5.
Same I got 306 games on PS4 and next console I get will be whatever the new Xbox console is called
You're missing out on some great games
Your missing out I upgraded to the ps5 from the PS4 two years ago and it's worth it especially of how powerful the ps5 is
Your loss I guess.
Damn, you missing out on a lot of good games coming out down the pipeline. 😬🎮🚫
I wish Sony would let Bend give us Days Gone 2. There is such much more story to tell.
The PS5 is directionless. Overrated generation, overrated console, The games themselves are good, but the brand has become a shell of its former self and the company has way too much baggage of poor business decisions and lackluster leadership. Competition is king and Sony, XBOX, and Nintendo are still competition and not a shitty console wars bickering. Forget the PS6 because a “crash” is coming.
Be quiet and keep playing your Switch.
@ I don’t have a Switch, you goof.
@@chuckgreen41 Don't be a salty fanboy kid
Xbox failing doesn't mean Playstation and Nintendo are "doomed". Grow up.
@@OdeOneEleven All three are competition. XBOX isn’t going anywhere, Sony Pony Bot
Sony ruin everything deserves it
Sony has shot themselves in the foot. Anyone who cares about high-end graphics will not think twice about shelling out on a decent high-end PC that is more advanced than the laughable PS5 Pro. With Sony and XBox exclusives now being available on PC, there is no reason whatsoever for anyone to invest in a Sony or Microsoft console anymore.
Most live service games are trash. Keep on doing what you do best, Sony. Make them single player epic story games.
Remember when Sony was chastising EA for saying single-player gaming was dead? We buy Sony for the single-player games. NO ONE wants to pay money to use their own internet. Here we are…..halfway through PS5, and nothing is coming. Horizon and GofW were cross-gen titles. Naughty Dog finally announced something, and everyone was like 👎🏼. I regret buying a PS5. I should have upgraded my PC or bought a new one because all I play are PC games running on PS5, or PS4 games.
After the ps3 era, Sony's first party output has been very poor. The fanboys will jump at this comment but Sony hasn't release any games on the ps5, atleast not enough.
After PS3? Lol what? Spiderman, Astro bot, Horizon, Returnal, God of War Rebooted, Bloodbourne. Go home. You're drunk.
To be fair to 1st comment, not saying right or wrong, but Is 5 games you listed enough since ps4 launch almost 12 years ago? I personally think that's poor for any console.
PS3 gots so many classic IPs on there belt. So many fun exclusives and multiplayer games back then.
Agrees 9 only ps5 game's in 5 year's is shocking
You're not entirely wrong, but you gotta remember alot of games were created at the end of the PS4 lifetime, and were also made for the PS5. Just because it wasn't next gen exclusive doesn't mean we didn't get new games.
This is what happens when you have a fanbase that deep throat's a corporation for so long instead of making a stand and demanding better. I play on Playstation and i'm saying this. 👀
Sony is banking on one of these live service games to hit to make up for that Call of Duty money, That Microsoft buyout hurt them, Sony said themselves that money was used to fund a lot of their first party titles, Microsoft knew what they were doing with that acquisition, Microsoft might be in 3rd place right now, but they are playing a game of chess, Fanboys keep bragging about 60 million consoles sold but Sony isn't making the money back on software when these first party titles are only selling one million or two with over 60 million consoles out there. half of these gamers are playing games like COD, Gta 5 , NBA 2K etc... but let the fanboys keep worrying about Microsoft, they keep saying Microsoft is dead, but don't see what's happening in front of them.
They canceled the only shit I may have played and kept the crap I definitely won't.
This has been the most disappointing Sony generation ever. Barely any first studio games, and most of the ones that came out were cross gen on PS4. The PSVR2 is also barely supported and costed a LOT of money, and now the PS5pro is also barely seeing any huge improvements. Sony used to be my favorite company ever. I really hope they gain my trust back and stop being greedy and not being there for the fans that made them so successful.
Holding onto old gen was the biggest mistake moving forward for Xbox and PlayStation
The question is can Sony make single purchase 1st player games with sensible budgets? The whole reason they went both feet in with live service games was they expected higher customer spend on these games. Younger gamers don’t seem to be adopting the console model, and the thought of £800+ plus consoles and £100 games puts me off buying a PS6.
Leave the live service games to the Koreans and Chinese who know how to make it work.
Sony should just become a third party publisher. Put their software on PC, Steam Deck, even Xbox and Switch. Oh yeah, I forgot. They already do.
The industry don't want regular people playing games no more so we are going to become hackers and pirates.. we will not tolerate BS from any industry 😂😂😂😂yo ho ho and a bottle of rum
Let the developers do the game they want, you bought those companies for their quality not for yours
After concord I’m not suprised they shutting shit down . I try to tell people competition is always good for the consumer . Xbox is damn near dead so they think they can do whatever they want since they are the leading console . The switch leads in sales but that’s not PlayStations direct competition and we all know that . With the success of astrobot , god of war , horizon , tlou, devs not releasing certain games on Xbox , etc they are getting big headed like they did with the ps3
Xbox makes more money than Nintendo
12 games cancelled but ZERO movies and tv shows have been cancelled that shows you where sonys mind set is at.
I'm such a true gamer, the PS5 literally made my depression really bad. This generation of gaming isn't really current gen. We're still stuck with last gen.
@@stijnvonck1431yes I can count the good games on 1 hand, the rest is only remastered bs games.Sony already working on PS6 is more sad, then you get remastered remastered remastered games for PS6.😂
Everyone does realize the business is not JUST selling consoles. It’s only part of it. The ACTUAL most important part of the business is selling software. For some reason, y’all talk about Sony as if they don’t have to worry about that second part for their console to even be profitable
I'm never buying another PlayStation new ever again, I hate Sony as a company.
This just goes to show that Sony should have just continued on from where they left off with PS4. Instead of constantly chasing that money printing online game, that will allow them to be lazy and just cash in forever.
Herman hasnt been good for the company
Main thing keeping this gen together are the third party releases. First party from Sony has been nearly god awful outside of 1/2 exceptions
I warned people when ps5 info was slow to come that Sony was getting to cocky. I was attacked for it. I still stand by that several years later. Evidence continues to pile just in last year with the live service nonsense and ps5 pro
Let’s see a list of names of all the people you warned then
@ what? You want me to find years old posts?
already halfway of its generation and all we got are a bunch of remakes and remasters, how many more versions of spiderman, the last of us and gta5 are they planning to milk? sony really ran out of creative juice these past few years.

There’s no doubt the selection of single player content is skimpier and it’s surely disappointing, but we need to remember to vote with our wallets and stop buying/playing live service titles if we want them to stop being made.That simple. SONY I think got the message with Concord but it’s gonna take a few years to see any shift back to single player take effect. Until then we need to remember we are complicit in this as well.
No one can deny that Xbox is killing it, 2024 was an amazing year for it and 2025 will also be amazing from the looks of it
The only thing Xbox has been killing is it's own brand.

I still play on PS4. Give me a new Ace Combat and Armored Core game that runs smoothly, then I'll upgrade. PS2 had three Ace Combat mainline games; here on PS4, we only got one.
This is why it sux that xbox is dead. Sony has no real competition so now they can half ass everything
They have competition its just software competition not hardware when ever Sony drops a new game and if halo and gears is coming to PlayStation, they are competing with Sonys games on they own consoles its not a good looks if Microsoft games do better then your own games on your own platform

@Grayson950815 your right quality is only determined by sales. That's why games like fifa and Madden are top of the best games of the year list every year....oh wait....
Should leave the live service by 3rd party dev and sony focus on single player what you amazing for
I know the intention is to raise ps+ member so the game set at lowest price but not f2p
Tbh games like elden ring or souls series is perfect for ps+, you have 1 under your sleeve it's called bloodborne
I know, crazy right
What ever happened to Warhawk, Resistance, Crazy Taxi, Burnout, Socom, Army of Two, Sly Cooper, Heavenly Sword, ManHunt, etc etc. I can go on with classic games you can bring back with sequels, remasters or remakes.
A Days Gone 2 could have been SONY'S answer to State of Decay. They could have easily made in a live service game but they place monetization at the forefront which is always a bad idea. Please bring back Twisted Metal.

Yeah that's true. And everybody wants to act like it's not and don't want to admit most gamers don't want or like wokeness in there games.
All the bad design is due to woke identity politics. They have ruined movies and now are ruining games
Theyre probably backing off of life service and regrouping. Fans are making it clear they don't want anymore live service games...
Failstation fell off after xbox bought Activision blizzard 😂
and failbox fell off only after 3rd generation console 😂

I hope sony is watching this video and focus more on their single player games rather than live service games
I think at this point Sony is desperately preparing for the rainy day. The rainy day being the end of Microsoft's legal obligation to release COD on PS5.
The success of the PS5 is largely based off of legacy fandom from the PS4 era. The current situation is due to a huge amount of turnover in upper level personnel. It started with Jim Ryan taking over as CEO. He is not and was never a gamer. He is just a numbers guy. Behind him started a trend of PlayStation removing or demoting all of their key personalities from positions of influence. Enter the era of Herman Hulst, who clearly is in way over his head, and here we are. The worst is yet to come, though. With MS bowing out of the hardware scene, we are all about to enter an era of extremely customer-unfriendly policies from Sony. All you have to do is look at how they behaved during the PS3 launch to see where things are headed.
Oh sales are down? Release more than one color controller, Sales still down? Games are 70$ now. Still down? Raise the price of online services.
Since I bought my PS5 at launch my 3 most played games are Witcher 3, Tomb raider remaster and Skyrim. My only pre ordered game for 2025 are Tomb raider 4-6 remaster and Snake eater remaster. I paid full price for a remaster of Dead space and Silent hill 2. It’s not been great has it?
I'm enjoying the PS5 due to HDD speed, bc and 60fps finally standard, but software wise it has been monumental disappointment.
From dropping great singleplayer IPs, to going along with temporary social trends, or from offering close to no support to PSVR2, to not being able to see the potential of Dreams (their most unique IP) on PC, etc, etc, Sony Playstation doesn't really look like a company with 3 decades of experience in this industry!
Sony has turned into a trash company, they want to be Apple now and make you buy a new set of 80$ controllers for each system. Nothing can be backwards compatible, please buy our remakes of last generation games.
So nice to see that Sony Computer Entertainment is now responding to the fact that multiplayer online games are sharply declining in favor of single player games since 5 years ago.
At the moment I have no intention of (and no interest in) getting a PS6, I used to play PlayStation exclusively before the PS5, but now that I have a PC and Switch I will probably stick with those next gen.
100% Steam and Switch are where gaming really is, $ony is just trying to be Apple and Xbox is in shambles trying to recoup all their recent spending.
A few live-service games here or there is fine, but the *bread and butter* of gaming has always been single-player games.
If you give players a wide roster to choose from, featuring both new IP and established IP, it would be difficult to complain. Benching so many beloved IPs such as Ape Escape, Sly Cooper, Musashi, Jak and Daxter, Gravity Rush, Spyro, Crash, Classic Tomb Raider, Medievil etc. and doing nothing with them was a colossal mistake on Sony's end.
Lets pretend development costs weren't an issue for a moment. What would an ideal Sony gaming landscape look like?
- You'd have brand new IPs coming out
- You'd have legacy IPs still receiving new games
- You'd have a variety of genres, from platformers, racing, puzzles, shooters, life-sims, visual novels, farming sims, Turn-based RPGs, Action RPGs, Early Childhood Games, Edutainment Titles, Adventure Games -- not just interactive movies/live-service titles
- You'd have 2-3 live-service titles available alongside F2P games
- You'd have a Playstation Store that offers a vast catalogue of titles to purchase and download, from old, new, niche and esoteric
- There'd be no monopolizing push to consolidate everything digitally
In an ideal ecosystem, Crash, Spyro, Lara Croft, Sly, Jak, Nathan Drake, Kratos, Kat, Joel, Aloy and Helldivers could coexist together.
I suspect the generation of gamers that made the PS2 and PS4 generations so successful are not interested in live service games. The younger generation that would play a live action game is unemployed and busy dancing on tik tok
They really feel the same the PS2 and PS4 era they had this magic on them like they were made by true gamers 😁
SONY HAS THE EXCLUSIVES
I'm sick and tired of all push for online-multiplayer games and even more so on subscription based games. Non of this I can call genuine gaming no matter how big they claim to be.
They all lack soul, purpose and offer nothing of value. And when its servers are down, they are only but a memory for existence. Nothing left to show for it.

Good example of CORPORATE GREED. They make top single player games, but it doesn't mean they can do it all. They aiming for the sky but fall and landed on their faces....it hurts.
Guys, you do remember COVID right? Remember how there was a major setback of years worth of projects, and some had to dismantle completely? That was literally during their first year of the ps5 release. Horrible timing. Use your heads.
remember how naughty Dog used to be the best game studio in the world, and now they’re not even in the top three of Sunny‘s first party. What happened to them?
Crash is awesome, the other ips? Nope they are overrated
@patriknordin2274 Jak and Daxter was actually pretty good. Too bad that most, if not all of the talented people that worked on those games no longer work at the studio.
@ yeah i guess it was pretty good, but their "movie games" i dislike very very much
there was some internal fighting, budget drama and some devs left the studio.
@@ianwparedes Even Evan Wells (former president) left, and he was there since the PS1 days.
The fact that none of these cancellations/failures bothered me is because I don't care at all about Online gaming.
Of course the fact so many resources are utilized on them is bothering. But just like Rockstar the Industry gets lazy and they want their billion dollar cow rather than releasing their next great game.
But even then my backlog is so massive that I have supplies to survive this time of industry turmoil.
