      No they are not. In Fact they are one of the best games being made right now . Alghtough they are getting a tad too similar to each other. Also there is just mot enough of them being made

      Some might be, but the Horizon games (including the PC ports) are bonafide masterpieces and I personally love the Assassin’s Creed RPG trilogy and Rock Band 🤷

      Their PC ports are typically trash as far as performance goes i was thinking of EAs star wars PC ports. Sony games themselves are pretty good though. Sony has a horrible (and well deserved) reputation with online gaming though.

        I’ve had good performance via Proton, at least when it comes to Spider-Man and Stray.

          Interesting, that’s good to hear. I’m actually going to revise my comment as now that I’m thinking about it, the ports I’m thinking of are EA (star wars)

      People don’t like that they’re wanting them to log into a psn account. But otherwise the ports are fine and the games are great (if you like the kinds of games that they make).

        Mind you a large portion of gamers outside of the countries that have PSN just cannot buy any ports, so we’re shit out of luck.

        I’d love to pay Sony for God of War Ragnarok, but they refuse to take my money.

      The games themselves are still good overall - but they’re forcing that you need a psn account in order to play them. It started with helldiver’s 2, it was wildly popular - then a few months after launch they started forcing that you had to have a connected psn account in order to play even though they said it was optional when it launched.

        In Helldiver 2’s case it was optional because it was broke on launch, then they added it in later and folks felt like they were bait n’ switched.

        Sony will learn the same lesson the other big companies learned. More hoops = less players. Its not like there’s a shortage of good PC games out there.

        They walked it back now, but the damage is done. A lot of people think you need it still, and a lot of people from countries without PSN just can’t play at all
