That's not hard. Sony can sneeze and the games media run to feel the mist.

Quick the troll battle is dying down! Throw them some meat!!! Enjoy trolls

There is allways damage control in every event Sony's not in.

How can you steal something that's not there?

What thunder?

I’m pretty excited about Gears. I’m pretty excited about the additions to game pass. Especially Kingdom Come, DMC5 and AOE. The Insomniac announcement didn’t mean much to me because 80% of Insomniacs games were on PlayStation and they showed no indication that was changing. The acquisition made sense but I didn’t feel like it was a bomb. We already knew their next big game would be on PlayStation. So to me it was just like cool. Finally. It was far from the news of show. More like a foregone conclusion.

Didn't watch gamescom but it sounds like it was boring and filled with stuff we already knew about. There was no thunder stolen or any thunder to steal lol

(How Sony stole Microsoft's thunder at Gamescom this year). Let me guess without showing up or even saying anything. Jk

Insomniac was practically with them anyway.....so what the fk was so special about that? Similar to when MS bought the Forza Horizon company.

The reach in here smells 😂😂

What makes a gamer attack another console over the other?

You don't own both consoles? So you're protecting your one investment?

The company did you wrong years ago and you never got over it?

Console Wars have always seemed silly to me because I've always owned various consoles. As a gamer I wanna play everything I can. I don't wanna be left out.

What thunder?
They didn't "steal' anything from Ms

I mean all they had to do was fart and they could of stole their thunder

The same way they do every year: by showing games.

What thunder Microsoft had?

Microsoft hasn't had what I'd call "thunder" the entire generation. Make some heavy hitters and you'll make some thunder - until then you're drizzle, while Sony is an absolute hurricane.

I mean Sony has been stealing MS thunder for many years.....MS is not on the same lvl as Sony and Nintendo when it comes to gaming. Not even close.

Don't you have to HAVE thunder to begin with before anyone can steal it?

That headline makes the bold assumption that Microsoft had any thunder to begin with

MS has no thunder. They havent had any since the 360.

Thunder??? LOL!!!

By acquiring a company that has made nothing but exclusive ps games for the majority of its history? That's like saying that ms would of won E3 2017 by buying playground games alone and not turning up in any capacity. If you say ps has "won" something by buying/acquiring a studio, what did Xbox win by buying/acquiring a load of them? I remember when ppl said the reason Sony was ahead was because of resolutiongate, even though Xbox had more AAA games. It's funny how goalposts move.

Um gonna have to disagree with that Sony didn’t steal
Anything death stranding could be amazing or horrible at this point as for the studio they bought good I guess? Is like Microsoft buying the forza devs they were practically exclusive to them any way the rest is kinda meh honestly ya can’t win if your not there

Of course, xbox next proper event is xo19 in November

Actually it was more that MS shot themselves in the foot by not understanding what gamers want................actual games.

It would help of course if Microsoft actually had any thunder to steal in the first place.

Tell me again how the multiplatform strategy was supposed to fix everything. Look at your results and compare them to Nintendo, which keeps thriving with exclusives. Your loyal fans are gone. And let’s not forget the pile of IPs you purchased only to let them rot.

The worst thing is this is down from last years numbers/expectations which was down from the previous years numbers/expectations. You think about how long “down” has been a consistent part of the communication and you realize those subscriptions are what’s holding that boat together. The price cut of gamespass is still a price raise in a string of price raises. They are trying to use players to offset the missing revenue. Now call of duty is out of gamespass, which is literally WHY they bought the company. To draw people to the subscription. They realized they missed a boatload of money and that wasn’t sustainable. Now you pay for it like you would have if they never bought the company… so why buy the company? Mind you those billions still need to be paid back. Yeah it gives you a chance to say we make the biggest FPS… but the internal conversations must be brutal at high level on topics that really matter. Like revenue. Profitability. And ROI for the shopping spree.

Is this like the 10th quarter in a row they're down 33% on hardware how is that even mathematically possible. You would think their mediocrity would Plateau
