Do sonycels even play games on release anymore?

Pretty sure they don't even like their beloved exclusives, they just like how they're exclusives lol

Watch as sonycels make a thread on metacritic scores but dont even have a single minute played.


It over.

Yeah it's really odd how desperately they cling to numbers on that site. It's like they don't even play video games or have much interest in them, they just like to shout about them and push their favorite brand.

The only numbers they care about are metacritic scores, sales numbers ...but not the amount of minutes that they actually played. SAD

Truth. It's almost like they're working for Sony or something. I mean I know they're not, but they sure act like they're personally invested in the company.

Saw another cgi trailer released

Is there a video game behind all that cgi anywhere

You'd have to play 70 dollars and press x to find out bro.

This fkn tard. Tons of gameplay have already been shown months ago. Many people including myself don't want the game spoiled so Playstation won't post it in their launch campaign. Here's 10 mins of gameplay if you wanna watch. Enjoy.

Lold

No thanks

Of course. True goty contender coming in hot for Sony.

Only losers play SP games on release day, and most Sonycels aren't losers like Boxcels.

Lol love to see all the usual incel Xcucks frothing at the mouth at Sony's success. Stick to blockbuster hit Redfall, stay in your lane chumps

This is never coming to XBox?

Sucks if so, I like SpiderMan games.

Seethe and rage no xcuck games are on the GOTY list while Spiderman will surely be lol

What will Boxcels say if SM2 is nominated and Starfield isn't? Their game of the decade vs PS's worst year in a decade.... that can't be a loss.... the levels of cope will be too much.

Starfield won't be and Spiderman will be, I don't even see how that would be surprising. Starfield never had or could compete with the mass appeal Spiderman brings. And also the game was just mid.

Spiderman is so outrageously big in pop culture right now it's really a cake walk of an ip to use. Not to discredit insomniac who are probably the best in the biz, they would have made a great game with any ip.

Idk to me this just looks like another marvel movie just in video game form. Universally entertaining but I'm a bit burnt out on marvels action comedy formula personally. Esp the pg/pg13 type stuff, at least give me something darker and more violent, like Wolverine.

If that's the case people are gonna riot in their rooms.

This is just so wrong. Starfield had a ton of hype, certainly more than many games that may be on the awards list, including the frontrunner Baldur's Gate. It's a massive Bethesda game and the only blockbuster title Xbox had this year. It would have taken the industry by storm if it was what people were hoping for and surely secured a nomination.

Couldn't imagine being a grown man and still getting excited about a Spider-bloke video game. Then again I couldn't imagine fanboying over video game sales and exclusivity status either. Some of ya'll need to find a new hobby, srs.

Yeah you aren't wrong about Starfield but Spiderman is an ip that's massively popular outside of video games. The franchise had multiple billion dollar movies within the last few years alone. Spiderman was always destined to be more popular amongst casual gamers and children.

Starfield started with 0 clout and only expectations, Spiderman is time proven with his popularity in and out of video games. There's a very good reason Sony scrambled to keep that ip when marvel bought everything else back all those years ago. Because it's marvels most popular and lucrative character, by quite a margin too.

Good points actually. It's sad how popular all of this capechit Marvel crusader crap has been in modern mass media, but it is what it is.

Yeah the part that's wrong is you're inserting Marvel popularity as the main reason why it will be loved and that's not true at all. I don't give a chit about marvel or superheroes. I played SM this year, 5 years after release and had a blast. I find it hilarious you gave so much support and defence for Starfield - a "mid" game in your view, yet Spiderman you're like "no thanks". Not because you ever played it but because you don't like Sony.

Spiderman will beat Starfield because it's a better game, the community has ZERO problems trashing bad Marvel games.

https://www.metacritic.com/game/marvels-avengers/- 4.9/10

I guarantee Starfield will be the better game in the long-run. It's basically like Skyrim where it's got it's problems at launch but it's the type of game people will be playing for a very long time to come, that will surely get some major updates and improvements as the years go on. As for Spiderman 2, I'm sure it might sell better right away, but I doubt people will still be playing it like they will Starfield in the long run. It's much more of a flavor of the month/year sort of title.

Eventually you will realize how I am right about this.

This is right and no sonycel will ever admit it.

I posted it another thread a few weeks ago, but all of sony's games on pc added together don't even have as high of a player count as any of Bethesdas individual games in 2023. They are really just one and done playthrough games for the most part. Bethesda designs games with much better longevity and of course mods to make the game way more replayable.

They are just not designed with the same things in mind for gamers. Starfield wants you to mod (fix) the game and have an off the rails experience. Spiderman is a very on the rails, cinematic, quick time event filled game.


BTW, I own Spiderman on pc and have played it. Unlike Coal Man I own all the consoles and actually try out many games even if I don't end up liking them.

Yeah no doubt, I have been around the gaming scene long enough to know how this works. Heck I have the PS5 remastered version of Spiderman, so it's not like I am lacking experience with the series, and I had to get the remaster off the Miles spinoff that I downloaded with my PS Premium sub (because they wouldn't sell it directly off the PS store, you had to access a special link in that game). While it's good for what it is, it's the kind of game I have seen come and go countless times since I've been into gaming. Games like that release to critical acclaim, sell well for a couple years, then everyone moves on with their lives because as you said, it's more or less just a one n done experience. Heck that is essentially what Sony specializes in these days, critically acclaimed epics that you play once and are done with. It's the same way I feel about games like TLOU and God of War, they can be fun and interesting experiences, but after you play them there is no reason to really go back to them as it's just the same exact linear/cinematic experience you had before.

One day these sonycel clowns are going to realize they hated on one of the most iconic games of this generation simply because it was exclusive to a different plastic box.

Will never understand why people keep bringing up replayability as some massive factor whether it makes a piece of consumable entertainment good or not.

It's stupid and pure cope. You guys do know that you can enjoy something once without having to repeatedly go back to it right?

brb Godfather is one of the best movies ever made, sometimes you rewatch it - but not always and not constantly. Brb editing the movie to delete scenes, or watching it from different points or watching it backwards because muh mods and different experience.


And of course starfield will end up having longer legs and more people playing it in the longer run because of the mod factor. That still doesn't discredit how potentially "amazing" Spiderman 2 still can be as a video game

Both things can be true, they're not mutually exclusive. Just because one game has the ability to live longer via mods doesn't make the other game any less of an experience first time around..... The thought process behind games needing constant replayability is why this industry and sony is making a push to gaas .... To try and appeal to the ADHD braindead multiplayer community who wants to keep playing the same game for years and years.



Also lold that freeburn and jay are both trying to discredit spiderman for some reason, but both of them ended up giving high praise to High on Life ... a crappy cringey single player shooter that had some of the most mid and uninspired gameplay (also like what 10 hours long?)... But then again, High on life was thought to be an exclusive at the time, so go figure.

Also this lol.


Saying that Spiderman is successful just because of its name is cope as hell. I mean yes, Spiderman is a huge franchise and name. but a good game will always be a good game. Spiderman has so many games, some of them stinkers and none of them received the same praise from critics or fans compared to Insomniacs Spiderman. Insomniac actually made a game that is probably the best superhero game since Arkham Asylum.

Batman is probably bigger than Spiderman overall as an IP and franchise, but Batman games have been stinkers until Arkham came out

What do both of those games in common? They're actually good games.



^ Coals post on Marvel Avengers is spot on. That game should have been a banger, but square enix has shut it down because of the horrible response. Guardians of the Galaxy (an actual decent game) suffered from Avengers reception fallout ... And these are all games coming in off the Marvel hype.

Suicide squad was mocked back into development.

Only 2 confirmed players (myself included) buying spiderman 2 on release.



come on sonycels, wheres the support for insomniac?

This was what I posted when it came out. This is "high praise"? Saying I wouldn't even pay full price for it and that the gameplay wasnt special? Lol pls stop.

You Sony dorks talk about that game more than I ever have. Outside of me posting in the threads made about it, the only time I've talked about that game is when sonycels have brought it up, just like you did right now.
