Content

It's been a while since just you and I (Colin!) spoke, hasn't it? So let's chat for a little bit, just me (Colin!) and you, all about the things you want to talk about. Gran Turismo 7? Sure, we can touch on that. The definition of "second party?" I think we can do that. Possibilities for a PlayStation 5 Pro? Let's go there. Returnal's potential? Let us gush. PlayStation games on PC, scalping consoles, Star Wars games, what it's like making a game. Trust me (Colin!): We have a lot to talk about.

This video-less episode lacks sufficient moisture akin to an over baked cake. Be well. 😜

Lou & Rei Loper

I've never clicked on a link so quickly lol, I saw a picture of a lovely racecar and thought you were finally seeing the light and embracing cars hahaha. Still happy, just a different kinda happy lol 😁

Anthony J Sanchez

Keep it up Colin! You and your crew are awesome!

Collin Delape

Hello gents when do you think the next switch will be coming out and also do you think itll have the same problem as far as aquiring it like the PS5? Thanks for all the great content.

Regular switch has been out for 4 years almost now and it’s still hard to get for some people especially during COVID LOLOL

Owen

Whenever it’s talked about that psp sold 80 million units, is it ever acknowledged part of its success was due to its hackability?

Axl Haze

Do Colin or Chris like the Devil May Cry series? I can’t remember if they ever talked about it. The PS5 version of DMC 5 is really good, tho not a whole lot new from the original.

Timothy Martin

Damn, that is a good question. I never thought that the ability to be hacked might have actually contributed to the sales.

Hey Colin, thanks for taking my question, I appreciate it. Very well said response. What solidified my idea to write in was the disappointment expressed about RE8. I’m totally with you on everything else. Even as someone who can’t find a PS5 I found it very disappointing that Horizon 2 will be on PS4. Sony has the highest quality first party games, so even if I knew it was just PS5, I know it would be well worth the wait. When it comes to these big, first-party IP I would agree that I’d love for them to not be held back by last gen. Have a great day! Great mailbag episode

Luis Gonzalez

Returning patron - glad to be back with you! Keep up the great work.

GameSimp

I see what you mean about Sex and Horror. It’s kinda like that Pyramid Head sex scene from Silent Hill.

Is making a handheld even really going to be worth it going forward for Sony? I feel as they get more and more western focused I think Sony might try to copy Microsoft more then Nintendo. Phone base solutions via cloud regardless of what we think. I think billion dollar companies are more focused on that then making a handheld. Nintendo is in my view the exception to the rule as they litterally do whatever they want.

Jordan Avery

yessssssssssssss downloading now.

Brandon Soto

Still searching for a PS5. The level of stress & anxiety is bumming me out. Might save up for a scalper as well, unfortunately. Sony and the retailers don’t care about bots / scalpers because they make money. Doesn’t matter how people buy them.

Carm Pascuzzi

Dudes how fucking good is “Cyber Shadow”!? What a follow up!

Douglas Morreale

I was lucky to snag *one* PS5 from a scalper for $675 late November. That said, I'm not disappointed that the newest games arent PS5 Exclusive. What even is a "Tailor made PS5 Experience?" A few less controller gimmicks? All they have to do is scale the performance up or down for each console as they do with PC Hardware. A lower performance PS4 port doesnt mean our PS5 version is inherently a worse game.

MostlyCharlie

Honestly I’m a bit relieved that I can wait a while longer to get a PS5. I refuse to pay scalper prices, and it gives me more time to just enjoy all the games I already have. If we’re still dealing with this shit when God of War: Valhalla cones out though, that’ll be a different story.

Frank G.

The $800 dollar Canadian to $3 US made my day lmao. I agree with you on the last question, why is there so many freaking games on cross gen? If sony is trying to justify or double dip on sales because of the 110million Ps4s then why did you make a PS5? And I can answer this as someone who waited and looked wether it was for 5 minutes or an hour a day to finally get my hands on a PS5 2 weeks ago. It seems very minimalist and unnecessary almost. In a way it feels rushed there's no key difference besides the UI and I know the "next gen" feeling is the inside of the console but there's like 5 exclusives. For those of you that don't have one WAIT! and trust me it is not worth the scalping price of 1,000 plus its more of a true! Ps4pro 2.0 than a ps5. It's why they're out of the market and Sony is capitalizing on its luster and desire for one. Just like Karak said don't buy one right now. WAIT

Chris has praised it in the past. Not sure if he's a fan of the franchise as a whole, but him and his room mate have talked about DMC5 on his other podcast, The Snark Tank.

Try going back to Ps4 after using the ps5 for a while and you won’t be saying this

Frank G.

What 6 months? Who's gonna be using a ps4 anyway by then. Its not that much of an upgrade.

ur ppnballs

Great ep, thx for the good times

Like I said, it's all about how you value your energy and time. It may be a wise investment, depending on your calculus!

LastStandMedia
>>52272953

That seems like a good deal, especially since it appears shortages might be bad for another 6-9 months.

Frank G.

Than the Ps5 was prolly released too early. And when people get their hands on one, they'll see how lackluster its "upgrade" was.

Calvin Kirstein

Colin, What stunts did you have to pull with the Sony Execs to get Vita content back up on the store again? It still lives!!

Jon Barnett

Just wanna say that previously my name had been mispronounced, and after commenting on a correction Colin had corrected it this time. Thank you for listening and caring! I also believe that the PS2 Classic would probably have MGS2 and FFX like how the PS Classic had MGS and FF7. The main difference with the PS2 classic is it could have games like Shadow of the Colossus and Ratchet and Clank instead of games like Battle Arena Toshinden and Cool Boarders 2

Frank G.

Vita had a a bad ass launch. It will always live.

Peter Pham

I disagree, sack boy is an awesome name. Unique, to the point and memorable

Christian Longo

yo col when you said to go back to your top vita games at ign i noticed the article was edited last year, found a-couple more articles you wrote and they along with your top vita games article have removed your name as the author.

What do you mean? Scrotum Boy is an iconic character beloved by the whole family, and to be enjoyed by all.

David P

Man, I got to agree about being disappointed in lack of PS5 exclusivity. I don't have one and it's nice to have the option to play Horizon Forbidden West on my PS4 if I want, but if Miles Morales is an indication with its lower sales many PS4 players are probably just not going to want to play it on their last-gen system anyway. Who knows if they will still be interested by the time they get one. I certainly don't want to play inferior versions when I could probably wait.

Not Sure

Do u think ps5's aren't stocked in stores b/c all the big retailer/gov't giants have everything to gain by making ppl pay higher prices along with guaranteed sales? Retailers get guaranteed sales by scalpers, and gov'ts get higher sales tax. I just don't see retailers trying to sell their stock off their store shelves or legislators trying to make laws to prohibit bots/scalping. Seems like a greedy pact among the giants to step on the little man even more.

Trey Whetstone

Just a couple of things Colin. First I know Best Buy and Target implemented a 1 per customer limit and in store pickup only fairly early on for PS5. This is most likely the reason I was able to get mine two weeks after launch. Also, I've noticed lately Sony has been cutting the prices of their games around three months after release. I would keep an eye out for Sackboy to be on sale soon. I know I've been waiting myself. Thanks for making the best game related content out there!

It's literally only because Sony physically cannot manufacture any more. There aren't the components available for them to make Playstation 5's. There's no weird conspiracy.

NeO JD

Graeden & Dagan Nintendo Podcast for 2022 🤞🏼 Col, it’s weird, I don’t have that internet problem with my PS5 but I do have that exactly with my Series X. I wonder what that is. 🤔

LastStandMedia
>>52691493

I just feel like any conspiracy that relies on guaranteed sales doesn't make sense, because the sales are guaranteed due to high demand.

Not Sure
>>52691493

Well, there's high demand b/c of the artificial buying of consoles by scalpers, and the "supposed" supply shortage b/c of highly overrated covid. I'm paranoid tho. I've been wrong before.
