My left bumper stopped working consistently on mine. I never have issues with my other controllers.

I can't disagree with point 1 or 2. My biggest issue with Sony releasing games on PC has been recent. Trying to force their login is stupid. It doesn't work for people not in their target regions. I'm not one of those affected people. I would also prefer if they would reduce the delay porting from console, but at least the ports are usually well done.
I'll be honest, I was in favor of Microsoft acquiring ActiBlizzKing. I didn't have faith in the existing leadership and Microsoft has mostly taken a hands off approach with its developers. Since the acquisition, things have been mostly OK, at least on the Blizzard side. The biggest issue I have seen has been increased monetization, especially for WoW and D4. Not game ruining, but concerning.
For this acquisition, FROM doesn't appear to have management issues. I also do not like the direction Sony has been taking things, especially with their PC releases. They are also the market leader on Consoles, so I do not see this as required to stay competitive.
This feels way too expensive for what is a dumbed down device. Maybe $50-$100, but you would still end up paying quite a bit for something that requires a subscription.
For the price they are asking, you could get a desktop with OK performance that will be free forever after that.
I'm excited to try this. I am waiting for reviews of how it runs on Linux and a small discount before I pick it up.
Sony is already beating MS. We do not need more consolidation of companies.
I think it will be difficult. They may be the largest competitor to Windows, but still just a small market share.
I do think it's funny when people hate the way Microsoft has directed Windows when Apple is way worse.
Great news. I don't normally watch the reds since I don't have cable, so I will finally be able to keep up with them next year.
No more acquisitions. They are large enough with all of the studios that they have bought. If they can't compete at their current size, then they deserve to fail.
Battle.net games run well on Linux in general. The only issues I usually have is with their client itself.
It's a consistent issue for Microsoft releases. You would think a company that sells cloud services would be capable of having a smooth launch.
