GAME UK is just about to go live with its UK pre-orders for the next generation of Xbox at the time of this article. However, if like me you have decided to login to GAME this morning, you will notice that there is currently a huge queue before you can login. You might even notice the site not loading as well due to the demand.
INDIE Live Expo, Japan’s premiere online digital showcase series , will debut never-before-seen games & content updates across more than 100 titles on May 25th.
With all the PlayStation games that are now coming to PC, is it time for Sony to release a dedicated PC launcher?
Unless they are trying to kill their recently created PC business, I would advise against opening a dedicated PC store. It's an extremely hard endeavor, and people, in general, are very comfortable with Steam. Even Epic, with their billions of dollars invested, is still struggling to find a foothold, and they have Fortnite.
Can tell who ever put this together is not all that clued up on pc gaming.
It's just a known fact. The PC gaming community prefer Steam and Steam alone. They don't like different launchers. I personally don't mind them. But majority just stick with steam. Hence why EA and Ubisoft went back to on releasing on steam and why Microsoft release games on steam as people hated buying from the windows store.
The only other launchers that I imagine are doing ok is GOG due to being drm free and epic games due to the free games every week. Sony shouldn't release any sort of pc launcher n
This is just another ridiculous double standard article.
It's like how Microsoft can spend 20 years of making nothing but gaas and live service style games to sell microtransactions, dlc and subscriptions and get praise for doing it, but if Sony wants to make a single game like that every website under the sun is writing articles saying how Sony is anti-consumer or whatever.

Nailed mine on Amazon UK. Didnt show till 8.10am. Then the link kept crashing the site. Finally worked at 8.15 placed the order then the page crashed. Got confirmation by email. Page won't load now. Also tried xbox store, added to cart, on checkout it crashed and then it said I had reached my maximum order number and couldn't add it to my basket after that. So glad I got the email from Amazon confirming the order, Phew! Now the wait begins...
Game site crashed at 10am after n hour of waiting...
good to see there is positive demand this time for the Xbox systems.
If I was getting next gen this year, I wouldve stood in line at least 4hrs considering the huge demand.
An hour? That doesn't seem too long to be honest compared to some other things.
Especially when you compare the times of camping in front of stores for midnight ps3 launch :o those were the days :p
