@shadowraiden: Switch is not outselling the PS4.
@Imalwaysright
The “protection” of the name, Death Stranding, is set through the trademark, which Sony owns. It isn’t rocket science. The property is theirs. Just because KojiProductons is creating Death Stranding does not mean they own the property. No different than Insomniac or Quantic Dream, who both make titles that are secured by Sony (through that lovely protection known as a ®).
Rapture, again, had to release with the blessings of Sony, given...
@Imalwaysright
You couldn’t be more wrong. A trademark is very much a type property protection. That’s the exact purpose of the trademark, which doesn’t expire (unlike patents and copyrights). I advise a little education on the matter. :)

Regarding Rapture, it released with Sony’s blessi...
Seems like every time this game is mentioned, folks make this assumption (imalwaysright included). I’ve also already explained how property rights work. The owner of Death Stranding is Sony, secured by its trademark (a form of property right). Whatever happens with it is entirely up to them.
Thus, until Sony says so, expect Death Stranding to remain exclusive to PlayStation, just like the rest of their properties (Gran Turismo, The Last Of Us, etc...).
Nah.
OT: Solid output overall. A true return to form after PS3 (itself a solid device)!
For starters, I mainly game on a Gaming Rig. I have absolutely nothing to be "jealous" over. Next, I have an X1X (Scorpio Edition, in fact). I have access to that area of console gaming (though, like the first point, this hardly matters). Finally, most people don't really care if they are playing in 'true' or 'fake' 4K (or the X1X would be selling by the truckload more than the PS4 and PS4 Pro). In this case, what I said was factual — one performs better, the oth...
What's there to "get over"? The X version is the best console version, the PS4 version will sell many times more. Nothing to argue about, unless, somehow, one of those things is something you aren't able to handle.
This has been on Steam for the last year. Slight correction.
They didn't announce any release dates. However, the Wii U launched in 2012, the others in 2013. 2019 is six years (a typical length of time for a generation) for the latter two.
@WickedLester: Again, improving and “trying hard” are not the same thing. And no one said that these things happen overnight, but it’s never too late to create new properties for a generation. Lest we forget The Last Of Us launched 5 months before the PS4 released.
It’s called “wasn’t a big deal”.
@WickedLester: Trying and being “on a warpath” are two entirely different sentiments. And really, I don’t think they’re “trying” all that hard, either.
Exactly what "warpath" have they been on that has been any real threat to what Sony's doing?
Exactly. Cross-play was hardly a factor even before last week. It's not going to be any kind of game changer.
"Huge mistake".
Nah. They know what they're doing. Don't need a game show to unveil release dates of games that we've already seen. Better to put those resources elsewhere.
@Krib: I do remember, hence the word >>>ALWAYS<<< for Microsoft. Sony rarely responds to them, which is great, as a result, because they also continue to pummel them into the ground. That's what happens when you put up and shut up.
Hopefully, you were quite as thankful for Sony when Microsoft was about to sell you a console that wouldn't even let you play used games.
OT: I notice that it is Microsoft who must always 'respond' to Sony, while Sony stays quiet and continues to batter them across the face like Mike Tyson against a boxing rookie.
I know it's my opinion. That's..... a no brainer in a public forum.
I'm simply stating that there's nothing the Xbox One X does that revolutionary. It's just a very powerful, and capable, device.
You didn't read the article, it seems.
@Imalwaysright: Um, Wiki can be edited by anyone. Hardly a reputable source.
However, as you are about to run out of chances to reply, I’ll spare you any further embarrassment on the subject. I gave you facts, straight from a government site. What you choose to do with it is your business.
PS: None of Sony’s properties developed by Insomniac or Quantic Dream have been timed exclusives.
