And yet, the games which would make them a fortune will never even be considered. Where's Bloodborne? MGS4? Sony remains dumb.

    Bloodborne I could see them saving for a PS6 launch, MGS4 is so extremely in the PS3 architecture that nobody wants to try porting that minefield.

    But yeah, they're clearly trying to keep a old business model when it's not working anymore.

    I pray the PS6 flops. It has to. They can't keep getting away with it.

    I could see it. They've been pretty anticonsumer lately, souring the fanbase a touch. The PS4 is still seeing releases, because most games actually don't need the power of a ps5. The technological improvements have been seeing diminishing returns every generation. I've had very few games actually maxing out my base ps5, and frankly I think at this point shit can't look that much better anyway. It's mostly down to art style now.

    With all that going on, I'm happy with my ps5 for a bit.
