Did Sony give everyone who bought knack $60 when they gave it away for free to everyone who ordered a ps4 in japan


That's some weird logic right there. Different countries, different deals? Everyone who managed to pre-order in Japan got their free Knack copy the first week. You'd have a point if the first 100k pre-orders didn't get Knack for free and the rest ~230k who pre-ordered it later did get it. Everyone who pre-ordered got their free copy in Japan, so your analogy doesn't work.


The logic they use is funny.MS did not even apologize or give refunds to those who bought an Xbox when they dumped it for the 360, when they just dropped Kinect after lying about how important it is to the X1 experience.Talk about getting ripped off.

How about how all those Xbox one buyers at $499 and preordered Titanfall got refunded the $110, that sure was looking out for their customers.

You're comparing early adopters to pre-orders?

X1 owners were able to enjoy their purchase for months before the Titanfall bundle was released.

However, people that paid $60 TLoU are not going to enjoy their purchase months before the people that paid $50. Sony must do something to rectify this or they're punishing their customers for pre-ordering.

Sony is definitely not the "white knights" ps4 fans make them out to be. They already lied about it being ps3 only, then they price it at $50 (clear money grab), then they won't give people who preordered at least a $10 refund. I'm sure people will still say it's alright because it's sony.

Sorry, but how is $50 a clear money grab? I doubt you even know who Sony's taurget audience is with this game.

EDIT: Never mind. Just took a look at your post record. You're obviously a Microsoft lover and Sony hater.

Not a sony hater at all, but sony gets a pass for everything. Imagine the backlash if this was MSFT. What I mean by the $50 is that there should at least be an upgrade program, they were working on the remaster at the same time as the ps3 version.

The lesson here? STOP FUCKING PREORDERING SOFTWARE!! It's not like you can't walk into any store or click "buy now" the day it comes out. Hell, it's not like you can't do any of those things the MINUTE the game launches lol.

Why people buy games 6 months ahead of time is beyond me. One of the dumbest things to ever happen in gaming.

Where are the facts that they were working on a remaster as the PS3 version? So is it the same for Tomb Raider and GTA5? People do not have to buy it if it is that big of an issue.

People are sheep.Someone tells them to do something and they comply.

Sony can do and charge whatever they like, it is their product they are selling. If you do not like the way they do business, do not buy their products, period. Might as well close the discussion because all logic in the thread was summed up in last two sentences for anyone who hasn't figured this out yet.

Sony is a business. They owe you nothing. Just like Microsoft and Nintendo owe you nothing outside of what you paid for when you paid them for it.

I never understood this....

"hey cool a game I like and I think it is worth 60 bucks thats why I am spending 60 bucks on it"

then

"what? a price drop It was never worth 60 bucks I feel like I am entitled to 10 bucks refund now. FU sony"


Seriously dont buy games full price so you dont need to complain about a price drop. I stopped buying full price when I was 12 years old or so.....
