Nintendo games already reach eye popping sales. In fact, neither PlayStation nor Nintendo really HAVE to put their games on other systems. Even Sony's PC releases don't sell anything big (outsold of outliers like Helldivers II).
That said, I agree about Microsoft with Xbox. Outside of being a gateway to Game Pass, they should drop the platform and cut their losses. Stick it out as a 3rd Party pub and make bank that way.
Why point at PlayStation exclusives when Xbox LITERALLY has none? Y'all love to deflect. I get that being an Xbox fanatic now is as comedic as it ever winning a gen, but c'mon.
Correction, Mr. soon-to-be-banned Alt #5,000,000: Xbox is on its way out. Nintendo and PlayStation will remain, in their current and traditional forms, years after 2025. At best, the next "Xbox" will be a custom PC with that name slapped on it. Not a device with heavy R&D and treatment like the failed Series consoles. You think Microsoft is bringing all of their games to PlayStation as a charity? It's a survival tactic and that genie cannot be put back in the bottle.
Show us examples. Otherwise, like he said, no one takes you serious.
OT: Anyway, it’s great to see the two players who actually put effort into this industry thriving!
No it hasn’t. When utilized properly, it’s been fantastic. Devs who had problems should have just not used it. It’s a tool, not a necessity.
He doesn’t have to do anything. Like clockwork, you’ll be banned before the day is over.
That's one hill you want to die on, eh? PS5 has exclusives. Xbox does not. PS5 has a better, more updated controller. The Series X is still rocking the same controller that the Xbox One came with. We can do this silly tit-for-tat all day, but you need to accept that your favorite brand lost, and in this article, it only performs better because it looks worse.
Again, sales remain irrelevant. To this subject, they are irrelevant, no matter what people said in the BF6 threads.
Also, the campaign clearly ISN'T good, as enough reviews and players agree that it isn't. As a long time Black Ops fan, I agree. It lacks the strength of previous campaigns in the series.
The "good review" comes from Windows Central. The general consensus goes against what this is trying to peddle (that it is somehow "fresh" because it adds co-op). The bread and butter of the COD campaigns is missing here and that's what the gripes are about.
What it sells is also irrelevant. That doesn't make it good nor a tagline that people should just "accept it". When there is enough pushback, changes happen. That's a good thin...
Clearly, you're one of those people. :)
Xbox has many more problems outside of this. Of course, I know you’ll ignore that and play the victim game, but stick to the topic…
The issue isn’t about anyone else. It is Microsoft’s handling of the Xbox and all of the many MANY failures that have plagued them since 2013. The price increase (which is a lot) just magnifies it and it’s all their own doing.
How would you know?
Must be the Kryptonite of PC as well. Hint: the tools aren’t the issue.
And this is what no basis in reality does for you. The “competition” just raises their prices as well.
Besides, what’s traditional about the current financial climate?
"I just think some people desperately want PlayStation to go multi platform because their platform of choice is going full day one release 3rd party".
That is exactly why.
There was one before it and there would be one without it.
Yup! With Nintendo as well!
“Worth” is up to the individual. For every person you claim wasn’t happy with their purchase, there was another who was. And there were plenty of games with worthy Pro upgrades from Day 1.
Exactly.
Again you don't know what you're talking about. Daytona/SEGA Rally, as examples, never sold ANYWHERE NEAR what GT has and has never been as popular either (particularly in EU). Put out a new Daytona and GT8 and watch the latter absolutely dog walk it in sales. On top of that, most of those games are very different from one another. They can co-exist. If you want to go there, the highest selling "racing" series is Mario Kart. Hint: console. It hasn't been an Arcade + PC &...
