What PS5 moment shocked you the most in 2024? 🤔
I'm surprised they're doubling down on their stupid looking protag mandate. After tlou 2 sold less than half of tlou1, Concord epic failure, ghost of Tsushima 2 debacle, they're never gonna learn are they?
Why is no one talking abput the clean setup
Found the one guy that liked Concord
Concord 100%, just how badly they’ve let PSVR stagnate despite the money pumped into it was close but we’ve never seen a game made for as much money as Concord just flop so badly, a game getting shuttered after two weeks is just something I don’t think we’ll ever see again! I remember seeing it starting to break on Twitter that it was being shuttered and I was just like what?! I just thought they’d make it free to play or let it just exist but to shut it down and offer refunds? We’ll never see anything like that again in such a short time I think.
Also I was the same as you, I didn’t mind it! It wasn’t perfect but for £35? I’ve played a lot worse and I think you’re spot on, it just had too much hate / negative reaction to ever succeed, it will be an interesting thing to look at in the future on just how much power social media / negative feedback can have.
Special mention to Astrobot as well, for it to be as good as it actually was, was a surprise for me, I never expected it to be GOTY levels for me!
Biggest surprise for me was the PS Portal suddenly allowing cloud streaming. I went from using it occasionally to using it all the time.
Second biggest was how much fun AstroBot was. I really liked Astro's Playroom but wasn't sure they could replicate that across a full game.
Honestly, the biggest surprise was that 8/10 games are PS4 games.
Imagine saying that for a PS2 and PS1.
That anything happened with PSVR 2 this year. Both the PC compatibility (though somewhat half-baked) and hand-tracking were completely unexpected given how little software support materialized in 2023. It still doesn't have 3D Blu-ray support, even though it should be low-hanging fruit.
PS6 is probably gonna cost $600 like the PS3 did.
We can speculate on why concord failed or if it's fair but none of it happens if it was free to play instead of full price. There are just better options for $0
Ghost of Yoti going with a female lead and ditching Jin
Also Concord.. I didn’t think it would fail that bad, knew it wouldn’t be successful
