As many PlayStation users noticed, for a while now the PlayStation store is flooded with tons of really really bad mobile games, priced as much as a TSW base game version for exemple. Sony is aware but obviously, nothing is really done to counter this invasion of mediocre games. They always use AI as screenshots which is a huge red flag and obviously the final product won’t be as advertised and good luck getting a refund for that. Anyway I found this terrible Bus Simulator and I was surprised to see them using the TSW lettering style for their title, as well for the orange square used for TSW 4. I thought for a minute that DTG was planning to enter the bus simulators market hehe.
Didn't even need to look twice, just a glance and I knew they weren't real. Don't really mask the fakeness, do they?
Good morning, thank you for bringing this up, we've been in contact with the developers of said game and have taken action before, but will pursue further. All the best, Jan
Not very clever innit ? You have to be a fool to believe these pictures I agree but the TSW title style was funny. You’re welcome.
Yeah there was an indie dev who had their entire game ripped from Steam & put onto the PS, Xbox & Nintendo store. It took him a few weeks to get the various storefronts to pull it down (though ironically Nintendo still haven’t). Not sure why Sony decided to let all this shovelware flood their store, but if you go onto upcoming/new games etc it’s 95% AI slop. It’s gotten so bad I don’t even check the store anymore. Hopefully DTG can do something about this example, as I think the only way to get this issue sorted is for more & more legit publishers to make it more trouble than it’s worth for Sony to have such relaxed verification. Makes you wonder how far away we are from something nefarious being imbedded within one of these shovel titles.
