Sony are dishing out a bunch of stats for your gaming time during 2019.

Nintendo did this a month or so ago but it was only available in the US :mad:

I get this as well, must be a bug.

Yeah, pretty big news that one. It's an interesting move and one that will no doubt bring a new audience to Sony's games and a new cash flow to the company.

Microsoft games on PC and Nintendo consoles. Sony games on PC. Crazy times we live in. Time for Nintendo to break the walls down and join the party. :D

Interesting news about Horizon, it must be on the back of Death Stranding coming over - they've seen how to optimise the Decima engine for PC. I doubt that we'll get any brand new Sony releases coming out on PC for a while but I can see them bringing the PS4 Spider-Man and God of War over in the next couple of years

Somehow Sakurai managed to play 242 PS4 games in 2019. Does the man have a hyperbolic time chamber or something? He works himself to the point of exhaustion on Smash but still finds time to play more games than @Hero-of-Time

I saw this earlier.

I mean, I wouldn't put it past the fella - he's an industrious workhorse, and if he applied that to playing games too, I wouldn't put it past him. But surely played doesn't necessarily mean completed? He might have completed 30 or so of those games and dabbled with the rest, or he might have just dabbled with all of them. 

Not to take anything away from it, because that's a high number even if he was just dabbling with some. 

But don't worry @Hero-of-Time, don't think you've got any competition here :p

Yeah, but how many did he actually finish and platinum? :p

What's his PSN name and we can go check. :D

Have you tried BringKratosToSmash?

Or PleaseDon't@Me?

Or how about SakuraiTheBinaryGuy? :laughing:

Is it actually a fact that he works himself to exhaustion, or is it just assumed? Maybe he clocks off at 3.30pm and goes home to game?

Even when he was sick he would turn up for work, going as far to have an IV drip in his arm.

The Game Freak developed game Little Town Hero is heading to the PS4 this year.

Quote

Rainy Frog will release a PlayStation 4 version of Game Freak-developed RPG Little Town Hero on April 23 in Japan, the publisher announced. It will be available at retail for 3,500 yen and digitally for 2,500 yen. The digital version will be published by Game Freak.

A physical edition of the October 2019-released Switch version will launch alongside the release of the PlayStation 4 version.

This game came and went without any kind of fanfare. Same goes for Giga Wrecker as well.

A physical release was also announced for the Switch version of the game just the other day.

Sony's been surveying gamers on remote play.

Interesting. I've always loved PS4 remote play on my Vita. Not over the internet, but rather the direct connection. Now, I don't think the survey is indicative of Sony actually wanting to making it available on the Switch or other non-Sony devices (it would be awesome, though). Pretty sure they just wanna figure out whether it'll be worth it to pursue some avenues in that direction.

The Sony financials have hit and once again it's good news for the company. The PS4 is actually tracking ahead of the PS2 (no way will it beat it) and apparently it was the 2nd best year for the PlayStation, despite it being at the end of the generation. Crazy.

Software sales were also stupidly high and once again the number of digital sales has gone up, cutting into the physical market.

PSN continues to rake in a stupid amount of money, with the subscriber user base now nearing the 40 million mark.

What's mindblowing about those sales is the fact that the RRP is still $299 over in the states. $199 sales only happen around Black Friday. For comparison's sake, Wii and PS2 were both $149 at this point.

149 dollars in 2006 is closer to 190 with inflation, but your point still stands.
