    Dunno how unpopular this is, but I’ve seen it float around on... everywhere.
    “You can like it, but you have to know it is garbage.” Is a ridiculous statement that I hate.

    Kind of reminds me of "Everyone's entitled to their own wrong opinion". I heard that from a few podcasts for a bit years ago.

    Sony’s arrogance is their worst enemy. For some reason, every time they reach the “best selling console” of a generation, they create monumentally bad decisions.

    Same thing with Sony movies, they get one thing that doesn't flop and they think they're the ones who know everything.

    Yep. Now there’s a bunch of rumors of mobile games (no doubt because Nintendo did it), some questionable films coming out, and current refusal to address big controversies.

    My unpopular opinion is that no entity is under any obligation to engage with the public about internal civil disputes and that criminal matters are a matter for law enforcement - it’s none of our business unless an overall public safety issue is at hand. And shitty employment practices and bad movie concepts represent neither.

    That depends, if a business model conflicts with consumer interests then customers have every right to voice their grievances. And that’s not getting into any criminal or law which I haven’t even mentioned. I don’t know why that came up.... Sony isn’t coming face to face with the law, yet. If recent things about Sony is worse than we thought, then it’s a serious problem.

    If a business model conflicts with the consumer sufficiently it will be revisited or changed. The market is the point of engagement or lack thereof. What they discuss internally - provided it isn’t you know fucking treason or something - is not the business of Joe Blow on the streets. Now if that information is leaked or publicly announced of course concerned consumers can weigh in since at that point the cat is out of the bag and you may as well put your two bob in. That said, once again, their internal goings on are no more your business than your internal goings on are their business. Privacy cuts both ways.

    That’s the problem now with Sony. This is similar with how it happened with naughty dog and the last of us 2. If it ends up being true, then all hell breaks loose. Rumors can be false, but I wouldn’t be surprised if either it’s some sort of leak/hack against Sony or Sony pissed off their employees enough to screw them over. Ironically one of the leaks or rumors included the last of us.

    Why is that a bad thing? Things were fucked during that time and that’s not even getting into whatever people thought about the game.

    Sony and naughty dog deserved to go fuck themselves.

    Alright, what kind of stuff did I miss with Sony?

    Also, as far as an unpopular opinion goes: as much as I hate to say this, Ben Affleck has been the second best iteration of Batman, beaten only by Val Kilmer who only loses points because of the ridiculous amount of camp he was surrounded with in that movie.

    Some of their business decisions regarding the Playstation. Cliffnotes version
    - The Shutdown of the PSN service for the PS3/PSP/Vita without much warning(to the point some smaller devs had to either rush out their games or cancel projects)
    - Treatment towards a majority of Japanese games as of late, including gutting their own Japan Studios
    - A recent report about how they want to focus almost entirely on AAA blockbusters, including a remake of goddamn The Last of Us, while rejecting a sequel for Days Gone despite selling very well, just because it didn't 10s across the board
    - Treatment of their legacy content as of late, with old statements by Jim Ryan trashing their old games coming to bite them in the ass
    - The CMOS battery issue coming to light, which when they go out, it'll render PS3/PS4/PS5s unable to play either digital or physical games(because they need to be able to connect to the internet/PSN to verify their trophies) and they're shutting down PSN for the PS3, which makes it an inevitability
    - The recent shutdown for the PS3/PSP/Vita is already making you unable to download patches for some games

    Welp, my unpopular opinion after reading all this....is I'm so glad I never got into console gaming. Saves me money and time and the headaches.

    If the thing about the trophy cmos is true, then that’s another thing that vindicated one of Nintendo’s choice to not be like the other competition (course if the switch gets killed like the ps4, I’ll retract my statement and any consoles that does this can put fire ants in their pants).

    But, but... you'll never have the wonderful memories of experiencing such craptacular things & bemoaning about it for an eternity.
