Seems Pentiment and Hifi rush aren't faring too well against other hits like Dragons Dogma 2, Rebirth, Helldivers, Rise of the Ronin etc so far.

 
Looks like the testing of the waters might not have worked. No more ports. Back to exclusive. 👍
 
Pretty good for a single platform title vs multiple platforms.

Also Jim reveals that 160 million PS2 were sold at last count.


Just a hundred and sixty thousand? Here I thought they sold (through) more than that, like a hundred sixty thousand and one. They probably didn’t want to say 160k+ cos people would thing it’s a new subscription service for PlayStation
