Dude it's painfully obvious I am a troll lol I don't deny it?

You still do which I gotta admit is impressive

Dude I'm not a troll. People just like what I hate, and hate what I like.

It happens so perfectly every time. They hate when I go against anything that's mainstream. Most of the time it's dumb shit, and I enjoy pointing out. Like FPS games. All of them need to go away for 10 years. No more first person shooter games for a while. Give RTS games and RPG games a chance. Fuck overwatch (Mercy is sexy), and especially fuck Call of Duty. Seriously.

I have the ability to call out stupid BS mindless things humans do, like how people follow SONY's no matter what. Brainwashed people who can't see their ass is getting took (MegaFlare). SONY has the worst fans of anything. Worse than those Brony people. Sometime them ponies are hawt to me, but that's very rare--- I will not waste a fap on a goddamn pony. ANYWAY!!

I'm smart enough to know when my ass being took... Except that one time with that tall sexy black chick. (Don't worry it was a comic/manga I made when I was drunk.)

Sorry I'm all over the place here, I have A.D.D.

I'm not a troll. What I say is actually how I feel. You humans just don't believe it. That's not my fault... I absolutely love Donald Trump, but not voting for him. That would be suicide. Trump speaks his mind, like me. Damn the offended. I don't give a shit who gets offended.

"OMG he's saying what I don't like, and what's against status quo." Troll troll troll troll troll.

"You making us react. Stop it!" No....

People are so easy to piss off. It's kinda fun, but I just state my honest opinion on things. Nothing is ever made up for a reaction. Truth is what I love...

I hang with you motherfucka's because I'm GOD here. Other sites are lame, and people may have a higher status than me. Here, I already know I'm the zenith.

btw, im not talking JUST about this topic

im talking about over the years, how you act/post etc. youve never really proven any of the stuff you say, so what are people supposed to think? the moment you do, ill be very glad to rescind my previous comments calling you a troll. I feel thats fair. Just prove the millions of $$, or the perfect solar powered house or anything. Until then, I personally feel youve been trolling for years.

either way, me thinking that way of you doesnt mean i dislike you. like i said, youre a cool dude, or at least youve been pretty cool to me and I appreciate that.

You just proved exactly why I'm GOD here. I don't have to prove anything, GOD sure as hell doesn't. No one has seen GOD's face. None of you will ever see mine. Just have Faith. I've already posted my house after 7 years of being here. In another 7 years I may post inside it. Google search the picture. Nothing will come up, but the pics I've uploaded personally. That says enough for now.

This is about power and control. I'm not giving you guys control over anything. I do things on my own terms. It's all about being mysterious and secretive. That makes an interesting unforgettable person. I'm atheist by the way.

"GOD prove you made the universe." No response. "GOD are you really that powerful?" No response. "GOD can I see your face?" No response. "GOD are you real?" Yeah motherfucka'. Now shut up and go sit down before I give you nut cancer... ( That's a GOD I'll gladly respect/believe if said he said that. )

I'm cool. Letting people know everything exactly is a weakness. It's why I don't do social media. ( Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, Skype, Etc.) Only post on this forum out of the enitre internet, but I've visited other places in the past. (Save-point, RRR, and Spacebattles)
 
Guys please stay on topic. You can discuss how awesome Hybrids is in PWOYM.

Topic is: Sony sucks and is potentially about to fail as a company (at least, the interactive entertainment subsidiary)

Correct. I apologize for the off topic and my poor simplistic grammar/ typo's.

I'm waiting to see how SONY VR does. That could make or break the company. They invested hundreds of millions into it. Honestly I think VR is gonna fail for games, but succeed in the porn industry... We'll see.

Down with bubbles up with air

Anyways, I've said my piece bro. You reacted just how I assumed you would as usual. I guess we just agree to disagree. You're a cool guy. I like you. No sarcasm

I still wouldn't say Sony is THAT shitty

Btw weren't you all pro Sony a few years back? Lmao

I was working for them at the time. I had to put my pro SONY face. I received a free Vita and a PS3. I was representative of PlayStation, SONY TV's, and PS move. I got so much free stuff, I couldn't hate them at the time. So much free stuff I would never buy with my own money...

They let me analyze sales, popularity, and consumers. I know exactly how they operate. That was around 2012.
I got paid a lot to play games, and test electronics for about 5 months. It wasn't work, it was fun.

I know it's wrong, but I blame SONY for killing SEGA. SONY is trying to kill Nintendo now. It's why they copy everything Nintendo does, but do it better. Strangely SONY still fails because Nintendo actually have known IP's.

SONY wants a something like Pokemon go now... OMG.

Just in. Layoffs hit SONY San Diego:

That sounds awesome dude. But I can see your point. At least you're honest about it. Sony for sure will never kill Nintendo. They appeal to a wider demographic, however Sony and Microsoft are great at targeting the main one (rage kids who play COD and those who enjoy exclusives, like fgc peeps) so Nintendo will always enjoy a distant third. I don't think Sony's going to die off though. Not soon.

Updated the opening post. There's more bad news. As of today there are Layoffs in SONY's 1st party sectors. Enitre development teams fired for some projects.

I'm just trying to raise awareness about the situation. Media sites may not cover it at all, and sites that do, downplays everything. "It's not that serious". Okay.... :haha:
 
It's Sony Entertainment EU in London, where I was offered a job. It needs restructuring, the London studio is pretty much completely R&D (as well as Playstation Home) and it really was dragging in the legacy of PS2 era with it. I know that there were R&D teams still active that were set up over a decade ago to solve a graphical technique on PS2 hardware.

Really can't go into details, but it's not a studio that produces games per say, but all the technology software side that shows off Playstation hardware. Morpheus games were developed there.

Apparently there were a few people in that studio being paid for basically turning up, it really was a matter of time before they realised it was a little too loose. Now that PSVR is pretty much finished for development, I can't imagine much work is available at that studio right now, but you never know what they might have.

EDIT: I know people who may be affected by the layoffs, but haven't spoken to them for some time

Sony is going mobile in 2018. People are already assuming abandonment of the home console. Either way most comments on IGN says Sony is copying Nintendo. That would be a lie. Nintendo is never leaving the console market, I dunno about Sony....

(Something about a free mobile pokemon game making more money than the entire PS4's existence in just one week... I'm sure it had some influence on SONY's future focus.)

Be sure to read the comment section. It's funny.

Awesome Bro

People are reacting to Sony releasing mobile games in 2018 as if it's something they've never done before... these people need to realise that Sony have already released games on mobile, and this is nothing special...

Awesome Bro

I don't know about spreading themselves too thin, I mean, are they gonna' be using existing development teams, who'd normally work on PS4 games and such, to make these mobile games, or are they gonna' be expanding and opening new, smaller development teams to focus on mobile? And as of now, the games are only gonna' be released in Asia, so it's not like their western development teams are gonna' have to halt production on whatever to jump on the bandwagon... not yet at least anyway, lol.

The XBO has indeed outsold the PS4 in the UK in September, although it's nothing to brag about when you consider how many consecutive months it was the other way around, and with the release of PS4 Pro we'll probably see the positionings flip-flop again... and then again when the Scorpio is released. Obviously people were expecting the PS4 to outsell the XBO in the US/UK again once the PS4 Slim released, but it didn't really offer anything new, whereas the One S has the advantage of a 4k bluray drive, which is apparently a pretty big selling point, since from what I've been told (Not done any research on this), it's now the cheapest 4k bluray player you can buy, much like how the PS3 was the cheapest bluray player at the time of release...

Not tried any form of VR myself, was actually gonna' try the Playstation VR a couple of weeks back, they had a booth set up in Meadowhall, a shopping center near me, with some demos, but it would've meant missing my train home, and I was pretty tired, so decided to give it a pass lol... the quality of the games seems to be pretty divided in my opinion, I'm seeing critics give both impressions of good and bad with it, but from people I know online that've used it, the majority of them really enjoy the experience. Like I said, I've not tried any VR, but for the price you're paying you can't expect the definitive experience, that'd come from one of the PC headsets surely, although I'm still interested in giving Playstation VR a go sometime in the future depending on the support it receives.

One thing about their VR that kinda' bugs me though is that, as far as I'm aware (Again, not done any research on this), it doesn't work with PC... obviously there's the argument that if you're playing on PC you want a better experience, but it'd be a lower entry point for people on the platform, and would boost both the sales of the device itself and the development of VR games due to a larger userbase for developers to release to...

I can't like them... The media bias, the brainwashed fans, the monopoly on the weeaboo rpg games, the disgusting copying tactics, the way they bribe gaming sites (IGN, GameSpot, etc) and etc.

The way they just say 'fuck it' so fast if something don't work, aka PSP go, PS move, PS Vita, their computer division, and soon to be PSVR. They don't even try to correct the problems.

It's like SONY just wanna please investors. Top priority, not the gamers/customers. That's how I see them.
Microsoft is too rich to care about it. Nintendo takes risks and don't worry too much about investors.

When Nintendo and Microsoft screws up, everyone loses their shit. When SONY screws up, it's swiftly swept under the rug. The media covers it for one day, and that's it.

I see it from many YouTube members too
IE: ReviewTechUSA. I gotta call him out. He claims not to hate Nintendo, but actions speak louder than words. Sony fucks up they get one video on it. Nintendo fucks up, they get 25 disrespectful videos on it. He looks for any small reason to lose his shit at Nintendo. He praised the NX only to lose his shit 3 hours later, because skyrim isn't confirmed. Very funny to watch. If that 3rd party game doesn't show up, how is that Nintendo fault? SONY do shit like that all the time. Yet he ignores that.
