Sony is buying ‘Spider-Man’ developer Insomniac Games. Holy first-party exclusives, yo!
Sony is buying Insomniac Games. You may know those motherfuckers as the developer behind Spider-Man and Ratchet & Clank. Two fantastic-ass franchises. What does this shit mean? Well, there’s very little to differentiate Sony and Microsoft these days, outside of their console-exclusives. And, with Sony dominating that avenue this generation, it seems like they ain’t fucking planning to quit dominating anytime soon.
As well, shout out to our own NeoSapian for first letting me know about this!
Sony dropped an insane amount of PlayStation 5 details at a corporate meeting, so check them out right the fuck here!

Sony reveals first PlayStation 5 details. Surprise, it’s powerful-as-fuck and supports PS4 backwards compatibility!
Official PlayStation 5 details, friends! Nothing too surprising. Gotta admit, when I first read the article, I thought Sony mean backwards compatibility with all its devices. But, nope. Just PS4. So I’m a bit disappointed. That said, fuck yeah to more horsepower.
Sony says they know we want single-player games and this is rad as fuck
Don’t get me wrong, multiplayer games can be dope. But, after years of catering to that field, companies seem to be getting it. God of War, Red Dead Redemption 2, and Spider-Man all have crushed it as single-player experiences this year. Now, Sony has announced they fucking get it — give the people single-player games.
Sony PlayStation Classic dropping this December. Like, where’s my fucking backwards compatibility tho?
I know where my backwards compatibility is, okay? It’s buried under the prospect of making a cool $100 off chodes who are willing to buy retro consoles now. That said, knowing why don’t make me any happier about it.
Sony has sold more than 70.6 Million PlayStation 4s worldwide. Its console base is legion

Sony shipped its last PlayStation 3 ever in Japan, fare thee well
Sony has shipped its last ever PlayStation 3 in Japan. Fare thee well, faithful console. In the previous generation I was a dedicated XBOT, but I have returned to the Sony fold this generation.
