Sony is making their own COD clone, which makes me think they knew about this news age ago. And it probably will come out next year or 2024 just in time.
The quality who knows could be a dud
I didn't know this !!! out of curiosity who is developing it? if it will be released on PC and console day one have a chance to be taken into consideration otherwise it might as well stop developing it, it will never become as famous as the most famous shooters.

ps. i still remember the fallen devs at sony during the search for the halo killer

Deviation games are developing it. Ex Treyarch staff. PS5 exclusive. Sony funded.

I don’t believe it. If they did know then I don’t understand their strategy of going PC, unless they are planning to get out of the console business which wouldn’t make sense seeing PS5 sales.

Nah, not for at least another year. I couldn’t see 20 a month before but now I definitely can because there won’t be any other way for you to get these games. If they have one more big acquisition it’s game over for Sony. Their single player only melodramatic exclusives won’t cut it. That’s what happens when all your fucking games are the same instead of diversifying.
I mean, they aren’t all the same but Sony defiantly should have diversified and offered strong first party multiplayer games instead of leaning completely on third parties.

Reported. And I'm demented because I think people don't buy ps5 for COD? Wut
Oh no, you’ve reported me. How will I ever cope? :messenger_tears_of_joy:

Calm ye. Microsoft will treat most of these franchises like Minecraft and keep them available to all, especially Call of Duty.

lol I stopped being a PS fan a long time ago so this only pleases me. Feel bad for my fellow blue rats though. You guys have had a rough few years.

Hopefully this will light a fire under Sony's ass and they will go back to the PS3 era Sony and just focus on creating the best next gen games possible. I was only a casual Sony fan in the PS2 era but once I saw Uncharted, KZ2, Infamous and GOW3 running on the PS3, I became a full air-conditioner.

So there is hope, but Jimbo has to go. Releasing three cross gen games this year, no next gen only first party games, and only 1 next year is NOT the way to win hearts and minds, let alone wars against Microsoft. Hopefully, this brings about a shakeup at Sony.
Somebody get this man some Neosporin for all this butthurt

But MS basically only releases FPS GAAS games… your point?

Maybe it's better you look at the actual data of ps5 sales. If you think COD will stop it, good luck.
if they take away from playstation? sure it will give them a big hole of 20 30% and if you add Bethesda things when come out....it could be also more

You sure, it didn’t make sense to me to offer games only without multiplayer but some people here stated that was the case with gamepass and that you needed ultimate because that’s the combination of gamepass with live.
Maybe on consoles. Now that I think about they don't charge for gold on PC regardless

I just realised I have a friend who buys COD every single year. He buys other games like Spideman but COD is his bread and butter. If he moves to Xbox he would no longer buy games like Spiderman. While Spiderman is a game he buys it's only because he already has the console to play Spiderman as he needed the PS4 for COD. This can have an impact on first party sales which isn't good for Sony, cause many buy first party games as an addition to their COD.

Just looking at sales threads is like looking at an alternate reality for hardcore gamers like the people on this forum. It has very little to do with what we're into when you look at full scale of the industry. It's basically Call of Duty, FIFA, Madden, Just Dance and Mario Kart 8 for millions and millions of people.

I'm wondering if Sony will move to put their games on Spartacus day one but instead of 40 hour blockbusters, they will be split up into smaller 10-hour chunks and released every six months.

That's committing suicide. They never make up for the 4mil+ sales day one by putting on a subscription service.

people are trying to explain you that if Ms take away cod from playstation it will be a big trouble for them (hw sales wise)
"People". It's years I heard from the same people Xbox will destroy playstation. Years. From the same people though. Now it's Activision. Tomorrow will be another. I will wait when the dust is settled and see what such people will say.

Bingo this ain't comparable to Nintendo where people buy a Nintendo system for Animal Crossing, Pokémon and Mario. People don't buy Playstations for God of War, Uncharted and etc. They buy Playstations for FIFA, COD, Madden and etc. Those first party games are sold because of those big 3rd party games. That COD player will check out Spideman to take a break from COD.

"People".

There are casual gamers who buy consoles just for COD, GTA and FIFA.

On average a COD game sells 30 million copies on all formats. 15 million copies on PS console alone. Those 15 million gamers will now either switch to Xbox, buy both consoles or not play it at all.

The former is the most likely scenario.

So then why wasnt xbox ever able to sell 100 million consoles or come in first in any gen? They had COD,FIFA and Madden.

Again, in a couple of months it's like nothing is happened as Bethesda. My safe bet

No one is saying Sony is dead as soon as Microsoft acquire Activision. This is in regards to the future. Sony will be fine but they will lose marketshare to Microsoft. Come 2024 then the start of next generation whenever that happens things will look very different.

And you are correct Spiderman 2 Vs the first exclusive COD sales will be huge indicator what the future holds. But I think Spiderman 3 Vs COD is when it will matter the most. Let's not forget Gamepass subs you have to factor in Gamepass growth as well
