    Starfield memes aside this is pretty cool to see.

    I’m generally against exclusivity. I’m enjoying this trend towards timed rather than permanent exclusivity. I love to see PlayStation games coming to steam, and wouldn’t hate seeing them go to Xbox or Nintendo platforms if possible.

    The only real benefit to the consumer is when games are designed around some hardware gimmick. But even 1st party titles tend to drop gimmicks over time. Astro’s Playroom showed off everything the Dualsense can do and no other game seems to care about it. Did you remember that the official right JoyCon has an infrared camera in the bottom?

      Playing Spider-Man on PC gave me the firm belief that there is absolutely no reason to have locked it to PlayStation other than corporate greed.

      I know the game gets a lot of hate, but i think it is worth $20. It was a good bit of fun for a while, but it’s no masterpiece.

      How was it a flop? It is/was huge, I thought.

      It was a disappointment, sure, but it’s not like the game is trash. It’s just incredibly mid. And I thought it did extremely well on sales.
