Mario is on his own tier but Kratos is at a level to where he’s popular enough

That God of War tv series has the potential to really increase his popularity as long as it ain’t trash
Yup, Sony doesn't need no cartoony ass mascot :hhh:
Now if they say they should address the younger demographic I can get behind that

Kevin Butler had potential as the mascot….When nothing was popping he dragged them back to relevance…..:sas2:

My thoughts exactly. Imo Kratos wouldn't be Mario level but definitely Link level I think. Make the girl from Horizon could be their Samus. Crash and Sackboy was the last hope for that kind of mascot.

I like astro bot but I'm not sure if this will catch on like mario

He's catching on better than knack but I don't think he'll end up surpassing sackboy

Ape escape apes are Sony’s mascot. Fight me.

crash is sittin there waiting for his damn movie
Crash has been on multiple non Sony systems so he can’t possibly be their mascot. He was in the psx days but Sony moved on. Crash WAS their mascot and they threw him in the trash and let him appear on other systems.

For Sony CEO to say “we need a Mario like mascot or IP” now is utterly tone deaf.

Sony never owned crash in the first place

Some of you are clueless about the games industry
