Wow, who would have thought that "biggest flop on gaming history" could open eyes of PS bosses. It is sad that this had to happen that these incompetent people realize something that was clear as a day to vast majority of people.

Jim Ryan and Herman Hulst put too much egg in the live service basket and now we're probably not going to get as much Playstation studio single player games this gen compared to the PS4

[fattiger]

Concord was the biggest failure in the history of Playstation. I damn well would hope Sony would have taken it as a serious lesson. They spent way too much money, greenlit way too many games and bought too many studios all to chase the live service dream.

I don't think Sony should completely avoid live service games. There can be a place for that kind of game. They found great success with Helldivers 2. But Sony went way too hard into live service all at once, and it blew up in their face.

Sony has had other massive failures in the past (namely the launch of the PS3 and the hacking incident) and those failures made them change their ways. Hopefully Concord has taught Sony not to go chasing fads and looking for phantom gold mines. Instead stick to making the kind of games they already know their audience plays.

Shuhei Yoshida gave us Stellar Blade, Herman Hulst a fucking Concord.

Im glad more stupid live service games got canceled 😂 im now hoping bend makes a days gone single player only sequel.

[grcigar]

Why was the Pro released if the software support behind it wasn’t ready?

[BeepJD]

Shuhei yoshida and Scott Rhode should have the most pull within Sony’s first party studios and that’s it

[Jme_hde]

Coming from Nintendo Switch, I wouldn’t have gotten PS5 if I knew then that there would be practically no exclusives…

[mtstrs]

More New Astro levels? I'm in LFG! Putting out a couple of new levels every 3 months is a great strategy to keep fans engaged longer term.

[jesusamenbro]

Lmao, this man ignored Shuhei Yoshida talking about PlayStation VR. He also left out the part how you Sony need you to buy remakes and remasters and PC ports to fund PlayStation games

[mrpd]

DS2, Yotei, Wolverine, Venom, Cory Barlogs IP, Santa Monica’s 2nd Single player game, Intergalatic, Spider-Man 3, Uncharted 5, Horizon 3, Lost Souls Aside, Phantom Blade Zero, Marathon, Jason Blundells game, HouseMarque new single player game. No excuses for Sony this gen but we’re still getting good games

[estevan]

Is there a possibility that in the state of play could there be a studio name reveal by Jason Blundell?

[mattgall-jx]

it is Jim Ryan fault for the live service bs

[aaliguy]

Shuhei is such a cool guy and I'm sad that he's leaving PlayStation.

[thedarkside]

tbh it sucks to be on playstation more than ever right now. no fucking games in sight and more and more shit getting canceled before even been shown. they can have as many SoP as they want... i ama sick and tired with all their remasters.

[XCaPTainClipzX]

Unpopular opinion but I like to see Sony making cuts. They need to run a tight ship and prioritize games we actually want.

[ashtonjackfanny]

I love how teamkill media isn't porting their game code Violet to PC. The reason hermits defile games with mods. too bad Sony doesn't take the same approach. Digital foundry are pc shills they will never give the edge to PS5 pro over PC. Doesn't matter i have the screenshots. Xbox doesn't even exist pc soon to follow

[jasondowling]

I feel like PSSR works best on performance mode because it’s rendering a lower resolution so pssr can upscale the low resolution with the high frame rate where fidelity mode is already rendering a higher resolution so PSSR might not be as efficient because it’s already 4K.

[ratedmmasta]

Honestly I'm glad Sony is pulling the plug on these live service games before they come out and fail, now when they get back to making great single player games we as a community have to make sure we support them that way they won't need to look elsewhere for profit

[SuperLifeCore]

PlayStation did start the PS5 gen with good games like Ratchet, God of War, Returnal, Horizon and Spiderman, but I think people wanted something new and not just sequels that were pretty much the same as their predecessors.
