Atleast a new Hideo Kojima game should be coming soon...

I can't imagine any reason to watch or play a game about american superheroes. Cringe asf.
Wolverine is Canadian.
Marvel
I mean, if you care that much about character or story in an action game, it's probably a good idea not to pick it up to begin with, yeah.
The genre typically has bad to mediocre stories because the selling point is the gameplay anyway.
Cattle
Yes, because has Sony released so many successful first party games in 2026...
Lol I had to double check because I couldn't remember any.
We got...
- Marathon
- Saros
- MLB The Show 26
- Marvel Tōken: fighting souls
And this.
Is Tokon classed as a first party? Isnt it technically a second party game, because it is developed by Arc who arent owned by Sony, but published by Sony?
😬 How the mighty have fallen since the PS2 days
This did better than Tokon? That makes me pretty sad
Tokon launch has been a bumpy road & fighting games don't sell like Sony Marvel IPs
woof
Idiots will buy anything.
Well it is a game for idiots
Idiots will pre-order anything. There were probably a lot of sales before the controversy even started.

Seems like an alright $5 buy down the road.
It's single player. I'll pirate it and share it on soulseek for the world.
It's not on PC.
Emulators and time
Hey that also works for me. I haven't pirated a new game in years and have been itching to give it a go again to see how it is now. It being the piracy process of a new game in the modern day lol
Gotta save your money for the Stream Frame brudda. Every dollar counts 💀
Use the steam frame to pretend you have a home lab
I'm not convinced it's even worth my time, much less money.
Yeah, comparing to "no game is worth $60", it is no better to buy a $5 game that will leave you unfazed for 15 hours. That just sounds like being a VG junkie.
For an example, I picked up Duke Nukem Forever for $5 knowing the reviews weren't great and still felt ripped off.
