in /v/'s opinion, what's the most consumer friendly company out there today?
and why?
>>344114202
Nintendo/Microsoft/Valve/Blizzard
Literally anything but Sony
they are scum
>>344114202
Microsoft/Nintendo always do the best for their customers
>>344114739
>>344114439
NO. BUT I MADE IT SO OBVIOUS IN THE OP
sony is holding this gen hostage. By correlation, you blame the shitty state of this gen to sony.
When are any of the E3 games coming out?
NEVER.
>>344114439
Agreed. Sony went to SHITE after the original playstation.
>>344114439
>>344114739
>Microshit
Delusional retards who dont realize they are only acting humble because they are losing.
>>344114439
Why? I'd say opposite.
>>344118020
>so youd rather get fucked by sony
autism is a hell of a retardation.
>>344118342
I dont prefer either hence I never said sony
>>344114202
>Friendly
Valve/CDPR
>Actual good devs
...
>>344114202
Nintendo is the lesser evil in the industry
>>344118401
how much does sony pay you rugga?
>>344114439
Valve and Blizzard maybe, but not so sure about Microsoft and Nintendo though. Nintendo's gone to crap lately, but they have been pretty good in the past.
>>344118508
and sony is the worst for trying to kill nintendo. I've never heard of Microsoft trying to fuck nintendo over. Hell, sony bribes the media to shit on Nintendo.
>>344118647
Technically Microsoft won't fucked (or plain out buyout) any of the other big three, MS is still scared of those anti-consumer watchdogs. I think Microsoft tried to do a partnership with Nintendo recently with that minecraft thingy.
>Sony has an entire game developing country, Japan, on their leash
>there literally is no other option for the Japanese populace to play their favorite games
>Sony are the good guys
I remember when Nintendo had class-action lawsuits filed against them because too many people had NESes, and accused them of monopolizing the market.
>>344114202
AMD.
>>344118647
Nintendo doesn't need sony to kill it, it does a good enough job doing that itself with many of their stupid ass decisions. They are only kept afloat by their diehard loyalists.
It sure as hell ain't Sony,
Valve is pretty good but their customer service still sucks balls. Blizzard is also pretty ok
and say what you will about EA's marketing practices but they have pretty good customer service
>>344119594
No they are kept afloat by a giant disembodied penis, floating in the middle the Cumibbean Ocean.

Why do people like, let alone feel the need to defend Nintendo again?
>>344120350
Sorry for that >>344118530
Didn't mean to quote you
>>344114202
All companies will screw you someone, but the lessers evils imo are Nintendo, Valve and Blizzards so far
>>344120350
>>Sony is bad because they're the most successful
500$ dollars
pay for online
40$ month rental
no backwards
you have 4 DS3?? too bad, this totally useless feature mean you now have to buy all new DS4 controllres
PS+ on 7th gen gave you good games, but bled the company, PS+ in 8th gen is all shovel ware indie crap
VITA memory cards
SASUGA SONY!
>>344119391
>>there literally is no other option for the Japanese populace to play their favorite games
Nintendo has the monopoly on the handheld market, and if NX do is an hybrid said monopoly will transfer to consoles

They wouldn't backpedaled for the past 3 years if they weren't losing this hard. their E3 was a subtle way of saying "fuck you, buy Scorpio if you want the extra performance" since devs won't prioritized on xbone after 2018.
>>344121821
>fuck you, buy Scorpio if you want the extra performance
but Phil Fish himself said if you don't have a 4K TV the XBox One S is the one you should get because the Scorpio does absolutely nothing for you. It'll be exactly the same case with the Neo, too, only Sony isn't offering a Slim upgrade yet.
>>344114439
>listing the four companies best known for fucking over their customers
Go shitpost somewhere else, we're trying to have a discussion here.
>Any company
>consumer friendly
>>344114202
pic unrelated I assume?
>>344122021
What do you mean? Being consumer-friendly means consumers like you and buy your shit so it's worth it for both the company and the consumers.
Are you saying it isn't true love because they still want money for their products?
>>344121950
The OP started off with a company known for some real shitty practices. This thread is bait, it was intended to be that way from the start.
i dunno guys you do get a lot of free games with PSN every month. and their games have easily the best graphics than the other consoles. and they launched at 100 dollars cheaper than the xbone. seems pretty bro-tier to me. sony=valve>nintendo>>>>>>microsoft
>>344120350
blatant stupidity the post
>>344122186
Sorry, should have said pro-consumer.
>>344122186
>true love
>real
>>344114439
first post best post
>>344122256
It ain't free if you're paying a yearly fee lad.
>>344122256
If you payed money for something whatever you get in return is not free.
>>344120350
>Sony is bad because they're the most successful
This is about as stupid as saying "THEY HATE US FOR OUR FREEDUMBS!".
>>344122614
I fucking hate that cunt.
>>344114202
Not too many since a bunch of them seem to adapt the "fuck what the customer wants" strategy.
>>344122748
He was a fucking embarrassment.
>>344120576
Some of this shit is just blatantly retarded. Blaming a company for a fanbase probably being the most retarded of the bunch.
>>344123138
So all the Sony hate is unjustified, then, since it's all on the fanbase.
>>344114439
>Valve
>the company that's trying to make paid mods a thing
>>344123537
You misspelled Bethesda
>>344114202
>which acid burns the least when squeezed directly into your eye
I fucking hate the PS4's tagline. Day One they just declare that their console is for the "real gamers" and we have fuck all to play besides the same yearly rehashes, lackluster new IP's that get hyped to oblivion, Bloodborne, and Indies. And I'm sorry but I can't play Bloodborne forever. When is the PS4 going to be "For the Players"? WHEN SONY?
