Voidler 1,675 Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 (edited) TV Spend isn’t always reflective of overall marketing spend And you’re more likely to buy big TV spots for big games so Sony would have pushed Spidey and GOW heavily Edited November 12, 2018 by Voidler Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There's been several months that Sony has spent more than the competition in TV advertising, so this is nothing new. It's not even a big deal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think they actually believe the shit they type at this point. Or maybe you're right. We need to investigate a link between smoking weed and being satisfied with only playing a Forza rehash every year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I used to be a huge PS supporter till the ps4. I bailed when Sony was trying to convince us that indies were amazing and that's all we needed. Even now, I don't like the exclusives they pumped out. I could care less about Uncharted 4, Detroit, God of War and GTSport. I'd rather have the Forza Motorsport and Horizon games. Heck, I enjoyed the crap out of State of Decay 1 too.

Remij 4,683 Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Indies are fucking amazing though. Probably the best games in general these days. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Imagine basing your opinion on a game on whether or not the game has a publisher (Talking about ppl who don't like them because they are 'indies'). A good game is a good game.
