Where'd you get this from?Spiderman 3 actually looks like it could be day and date or shortly after.

Or they don't want to pay full price for 2-3 year old ports. One of the two.The vast majority of people who really want to play these games have a PS5 already. Also, PC gamers are known to be “frugal” when it comes to paying full price for games that cost hundreds of millions of dollars to make. Maybe there’s not a lot of money left over after buying a 4090.

Which has more content than all of Sony ports in the last 2 years.Or I can just play Warhammer Rogue Trader like I've been doing this past week.
Bloodborne came out in 2015. It's been free on ps plus for years now. And apparently it sold 7.5 mil. I don't think there are many pc gamers out there that really want to play bloodborne that actually hasnt done it yet. There are probably some, but i think it would sell about as well as the last of us part 1 sold on pc.This kind of game revolves around the hype train at launch. And since they don't have a simultaneous release, when they release the PC version the hype is long gone usually.
If it was something that PC gamers are fond of (like if they released Bloodborne i'm sure it would sell a lot even 10 years after) it wouldn't be a problem but narrative third person is still more a console thing.

Hey, i decided to do your job for you out of curiosity. Here's what i found on my opinions for Returnal pre-release:Later tonight I’ll a make a spreadsheet with all your hate boner Returnal posts going back to its reveal. Prepare your troops.
The PS4 version sucks. Chromatic aberration up the ass, only 30 FPS (most of the time), and horrible antialiasing. It was getting these criticisms at release. It is a GOTY winner with great mechanics and poor fidelity. It cannot be truly enjoyed until those fidelity issues are ironed out. Also, on PC the extensive modding community for FromSoftware titles could make it look and play several generations ahead.Bloodborne came out in 2015. It's been free on ps plus for years now.

Eh, it hurts the brand very little. The games release months to years later and have already mad their mark. Spider-Man 2 will have a potr, but that didn't stop it from breaking every PlayStation exclusive sales record. God of War is in a similar boat.Also Sony should abandon this strategy. It does devalue the brand. Nintendo seems to get this - why Sony would follow Microsoft in this strategy is anyone's guess.
Yep. Once you throw in external keystores and a few copies sold on Epic it’s even more.Spider-Man Remastered PC Port: $2.3 million
Spider-Man PC Sales (Steam Alone): 1.3 M by the end of 2022 -> Between August release and end of 2022
Let's say not all people bought it at 60 dollars and cut 0.3 mil to compensate. 1 mil x 60 dollars is 60 million $
Steam takes %30 cut so 18 million minus. So 48 million. Cut the 2.3 million cost to port and you get 45.7 million.
45 million PROFIT of ONE GAME with ONLY ONE STORE and ONLY 2022 SALES
Now add God of War, Horizon, Days Gone etc. We are are looking at 400Mil or more easily.
You'd be blind to to think a public corporation like Sony will say no to free money like that.
Don't mind us, just a lover's spat. He broke off our may the 4th Star wars date to play that damn game and i still haven't let go.
PC is a different market baby. they have different idiosyncrasies. People need to realize this.
just look at the most popular Steam games.
It's not because a PC player wants to play Blooborne he's willing to buy a console to play it. The line between PC and consoles is not as porous as some people make it looks like. And PC players are patient.Bloodborne came out in 2015. It's been free on ps plus for years now. And apparently it sold 7.5 mil.

no enough room for GTAVI. for exampleSome of PC’s biggest games aren’t even on Steam.
It’s an enormous audience with room for everyone.
I was actually being sarcastic, because 60fps have indeed been (sadly) the most next-gen aspect of these machines despite it being the norm on PC since forever and even the standard on older generation of consoles.I’ll agree with this. At the time, having a third person shooter with that particle orgy and fluid simulations at 60 fps was new (for a console). Also, 0 loading times.
Funny how posting reception of Sony direct competitor brings all sort of conclusions.I love that in OP’s mind the main competition for PC gamers time is Sony and MS.
no enough room for GTAVI. for example
That's not the standard. Unit counts and percentages are all that matter. All units sold are at full price and it doesn't matter what number something did 30% better or worse than.If they are making profit, they are successful.
that's not the only factor:You know that’s Rockstar’s double dipping tactic.
I am interested though, as the main explanation provided in the other Thread proved to be nonsense.You're not interested in honest conversation on the topic, you're interested in pushing your disingenuous narrative, all the while saying let's avoid console warring when you clearly are console warring, while gaslighting PC players all the while.
that's not the only factor:
1. PC gamers are notoriously cheaper when it comes to paying full price.
2. Piracy is a bigger thing.
3. cheaters are more prevalent.
Stop with the platform warring. Their games have been highly successful on PC.
This! The uncharted collection just hit it's lowest price ever on steam yesterday, yet it's still $25.God of War goes for sale for $9.99 on consoles but only for $24.99 on Steam.
That's why, greedy fucks.
36% representing! I wonder how it compares to consoles...
stop getting so triggered by facts.
Most PC gamers are cheapskates when it comes to buying games. It is known.

Apparently that's impossible, looks like an inherent characteristic of that crowd.stop getting so triggered by facts.
The only conclusion it brings is that half of MS portfolio suck. Sony games aren't competing just with MS games on the PC platform, they're competing with everyone.Funny how posting reception of Sony direct competitor brings all sort of conclusions.
Apparently that's impossible, looks like an inherent characteristic of that crowd.
And of course the Thread turned to cheap warring..
exactly. Some people need a reality check that consoles, mobile and PC have different idiosyncrasies.Most PC gamers are cheapskates when it comes to buying games. It is known.
I won’t stand for this dehumanisation of the PlayStation Nation.This "devaluing the brand" nonsense peddled by salty sony fanboys (easily the lowest form of life on earth) never ceases to amuse
I've never seen the other thread, so can't comment on it, just calling out your obvious bias. What thread?I am interested though, as the main explanation provided in the other Thread proved to be nonsense.
But something tells me you weren't bothered by that other "disingenuos narrative", hence your views in here.
