"it’s impressive at all that Microsoft was able to swoop into the video game business, survive, and then thrive in any capacity"
How they thrive in this gen?, they haven't released a single next gen game for its "next gen" console.
had to remove some of my original comment cause breakage of some.
Well officially I can see lots of users doesnt have a clue how Playstation has remain for decades as the best entertaiment console in this game industry, and definitely will not try to explain to them it would it be a waste of time, they will learn with time, a hint Bethesda buyout didnt hurt one PS5 sales, lol the PS5 sales are even higher, hmmm I wonder why.. hur..hur.
"which means less revenue to fund those awesome 1st party experiences you like so much."
what ?, this is the second time I see this kind of comment, so you think COD, NBA2K or FIFA are the ones responsible Sony does exclusives?, I mean WHAT!? lol, I think you should check a bit of history regarding the PS brand, just saying ;)
this is exactly what Im talking about, a game company just making headlines to get you and buy their console without releasing absolutely nothing new regarding games(lets see how many fall for that), while the other is releasing new awesome looking game experiences. 😉
PS FTW!!
of course is bad for everyone, remember TV, TV, TV services etc?, then MS wanted to prove they were wrong at that time "we hear the gamers blah blah", well look at them now, I said several times MS wants to control your gaming habits on what you play and when you play , and they are doing exactly that, they want to be the netflix of gaming and that's pretty ugly cause it will be mostly full of mediocrity.
Still I play and buy consoles cause its awesome new exp...
lol seems people tend to forget alot of things, they forgot about xbox 360 year advantage released and full support of Activision COD all gen long, but still the PS3 released a year later and still beat the 360 in terms of sales, and the reason is pretty simple, the Playstation brand is way bigger than the xbox brand globally, heck look at the latest sales about the PS5 , is selling even better than xbox and all its Bethesda buyout.
In the end what gamers want are new awe...
sure you can have it!, is the most awesome fresh FPS ever created, am I rightzzz? :D
"It’s becoming difficult for Sony to compete"
compete agains what?, COD, Tony Hawk, WoW , Spiro, Candy Crush?, oh man I must rush and look to buy an xbox series x now!! like pronto!!,...,.....yeahhh sure...meanwhile Sony ... Horizon 2, GT7, God of War Ragnarok, PSVR2, Forspoken, New Spider Man game, hell some of those games are around the corner to be release, also not to mention all the Activision games I mention will remain Multiplatform (nor I care lol) , and...

GT 7 Iooks insane!, they are literally the only ones that can simulate a real driving feel in a videogame!, not effing joking here! and in second place is Driveclub insane visuals as well , everyone else the competition are just playing catch up against these two imo.
Sony, PS Fans and their Exclusive Devs: You welcome.
that would be one happy Nemesis. :)
"only one feels like a must-have right now."
Yeah that's the PS5, heck the whole article indirectly is saying the PS5 is the best console for obvious reasons.
