What an unbiased channel.

Oh, and btw, it feels a bit pretentious to call that a "documentary".

LMAO

Pretentious to call it documentary, perhaps, but the fact that a video about PS comes from a PS channel doesn't make it unsuitable to be shared. I don't see the problem.



God bless You.

My Total Sales prediction for PS4 by the end of 2021: 110m+

When PS4 will hit 100m consoles sold: Before Christmas 2019

There were three ravens sat on a tree / They were as blacke as they might be / The one of them said to his mate, Where shall we our breakfast take?

The video is very well made and is open and honest about the good and bad things Sony did. I presume most being snarly in the thread haven't even watched it.

It can surely be shared, you can share anything you want.

The video doesn't directly lie or provoke console wars, but it subtly uses rhetorical strategies that are biased in favour of PlayStation. For example, when talking about the Xbox One, the guy correctly points out that Microsoft fucked up. When talking about the PS3, though, he always puts Sony as the victim, never admitting that they fucked up, but instead saying that Sony "had an expensive console" (as if an outsider provided a really expensive console to Sony and they didn't have any power over it) and other things like that. And when he is not able to defend Sony, like when someone in there said that you should get two jobs to buy a PS3, he blames it on the individual person, instead of in the person representing the whole company.

It's not nearly as bad as some other channels, and it surely is a great video for Sony fans, but I wouldn't be so quick as to point it as an unbiased documentary.

I have been following this guy for years and years and no he is not biased. His channel, however, is a PlayStation centric channel, mainly focusing on PlayStation related news. If you actually watch his videos you would know he isn't biased.

This was a really long video that can basically be boiled down to two points.

1)  The PS4 released at a reasonable price.

2)  Microsoft seriously screwed up with the XBox1.



curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.

Yes, I have seen a few of his vids and he actually criticized Sony in some of them.

Deus Ex (2000) - a game that pushes the boundaries of what the video game medium is capable of to a degree unmatched to this very day.

See folks, this guy isn't the crapgamerreviews of playstation. Those posts earlier mocking his channel are super silly.

I would argue that Halo was seen as the most acclaimed First Person Shooter of the PS2/GC/Xbox gen rather than Metroid, which I have would say not many know about today other than hardcore Nintendo Fans.

There is no question that Halo was widely consider the best shooter of that generation.
