Forums - Gaming Discussion - Is Sony throwing a punch at Microsoft over the Scalebound cancellation?

'Sony from Poland?' Didn't know they had a branch there until now. Seems a bit odd, isn't Xbox a non-entity in europe anyways? Less of a punch and more like pissing on a downed opponent.

Like that one japanese movie i forget the name of but remember as a kid because it scared me for life as i watched the kid who tried desparately to fight for the girl being bullied get beaten and pissed on by 4 larger males....

 

that one?

I...vaguely remember seeing an asian movie (either Japanese or Chinese) with a scene like that. But yeah, basically.

It was kinda funny when some people in here was baited into thinking that Sony was throwing a jab at Microsoft since it's a pretty clear reference to Drakengard if you studied the history behind the Nier franchise ...

COuld be a Drakengard refference (I think Nier is a spinoff), anyway, stealth trolling/punch if they can hide it with that excuse

It IS a Drakengard reference. But it's funny to watch people get sandy about it anyway. 



Even though the NEIR series has references to an actual being called "The Dragon", let's just assume this had nothing to do with that.  

I mean, how can you advance an agenda otherwise?



how is this sony throwing a punch?

Platinum Games is responsible for making both those games.



CPU: Ryzen 7950X
GPU: MSI 4090 SUPRIM X 24G
Motherboard: MSI MEG X670E GODLIKE
RAM: CORSAIR DOMINATOR PLATINUM 32GB DDR5
SSD: Kingston FURY Renegade 4TB
Gaming Console: PLAYSTATION 5

Is this a revenge f#*k or pity sex?

So Sony just had this marketing stored up in the back ready to go because ...they knew for sure that Scalebound would be cancelled somehow? Lol they aren't going to market it like that in just over a day of news...and on top of that they wouldn't diss another Platinum game.
