This is such a bizzare narrow product.

It’s almost like they want to make absolutely sure that it will fail

I have to ask why they’re not starting a defamation lawsuit over this.

Syrc,

I think they’re planning to take legal action, not sure through which means though

The union remains unbowed and is fighting to win the reinstatement of every dismissed member of staff at Rockstar through legal means and campaigning.

I you would be so kind, you can contribute to the fundraiser to support those fighting their dismissal here: actionnetwork.org/…/support-rockstar-workers-figh…

I believe they’re going through some kind of arbitration process.

I heard they were going under and going to reform under an studio called bebop.

Who is the target audience for this thing? I really don't see the market for it.

Karak,

That is a great argument for knock-off movies and shitty licensed games because they're cheap. You'd have to be living a pretty comfortable life to cluelessly buy a console.

Sony has FOMO in regards to the handheld market and is hoping that their half baked garbage will net them some market share.

Chariotwheel,

They looked at the Vita and thought that the time of handhelds has ended. Only for 3DS jumping up after a rocky first years , the Switch released in fiery success and the Steam Deck even introduced mobile PC gaming.

I honestly don’t get what they’re thinking. They make phones. They making gaming equipment. Why don’t they integrate those together like they did with the Xperia Play? I don’t necessarily mean taking another kick at that can (but yes, they should take another kick at that can) but why not work with what they’re good at? Like they work with Backbone to make a Playstation branded version of it – but it runs on iPhones only!

It seems so obvious - make an Xperia/PSP branded gaming-grade phone, offer a first-party Backbone-like controller, sell a Playstation Portal screen-and-wifi-only device that also docks into that Backbone-like controller, etc. The only real problem is Google’s monopolistic rules against letting hardware companies offer alternate stores on PlayStore-based devices, or they could have a Playstation Android Store focused on gamepad-based games that are specifically targeting their gaming Android devices.

Bring back PSP as an Sony+Android gaming brand.

battery life will be comparable to the DualSense controller, which would mean roughly 8-9 hours

Never has my DualSense controller's battery lasted 8-9 hours, especially when haptic feedback is enabled.

3-4 is more like it. And it never wants to charge on usb on my PC for some reason.

That's too bad. I use a cradle charger with room for two controllers, so I always have one in standby.

EDIT

The setup works very well.

racketlauncher831, do gaming w World of Goo 2 Launches for PS5 and Steam on April 25

Not sure about it on PS5. I tried (pirated) it on Switch. The experience is awful, mostly because of the control was originally designed for a mouse. They mapped the mouse movement to the sticks and called it a final product. It’s unplayable to me.

It supports touchscreen, which works really well, and motion on the controllers - which works very similar to the original on Wii.

I wouldn’t use the analogue sticks, it didn’t even occur to me that was an option. Maybe it’s because it’s a pirate version? Perhaps try supporting indie developers?

PS5 will probably be stuck with using analogue sticks? So that’s likely a miserable experience.

racketlauncher831,

I support indie developers. I loved World of Goo 1.

Sorry, but your argument is very weak. A pirated version of a game would not have additional features for no reason. A poorly done port is a poorly done port. There is no excuse of it. It may work well on the touchscreen, but I enjoy playing on my TV more.

And I am not a petty person who pirate everything as I assume you think. All I said is World of Goo 2 has unplayable control in docked mode on Switch. I would give my money to Windows/Mac/Linux version instead, where I can use a mouse.

But control scheme aside, I don’t find the stages of it challenging and interesting enough for me to buy the game. In fact I stopped playing after stage 3 or so.

Mutahar really ripped into this one.

It’s a wierd play by Sony for sure.

It's pretty absurd, there's no reason Sony products shouldn't work with themselves. The Sony Linkbuds would be a great use case for the Portal but apparently not.

This game was so fun on the handheld. I just loved the psp’s bumper buttons and world of goo used those in such a satisfying way. game control felt very unique, but maybe I was just a kid :D

Will be interesting to check this out on pc

nevernevermore, do gaming w PlayStation Portal Doesn’t Have Bluetooth

I actually likely would have bought this if it had bluetooth. remote play on my laptop is cumbersome if im sitting on the couch, but if I can't use my airpods then I'm out. i've got some sennheisers I could use with the 3.5mm jack but over ear headphones get uncomfortable quickly to me.

Well Bluetooth would likely add a bit more latency, so that makes sense when you think about it.

At least it has a headphone jack.
