I assume your novel on why it should go through has already been submitted?
Their goal was to beat Sony in price AND specs. That's why they didn't go the Sony route of disc and digital X. They want to have their cake and eat it too.
Perfect response
Sony killing it per usual despite what all the hater fans and media trying to paint
If it's so easy, you should do it. . . . .
A lot of the higher ups whether it be in businesses or sports teams don't do as much if anything at all compared to the guys at the bottom yet get paid thousands and millions more than them. It's not just Soccer players that do nothing yet have like 16 cars and live in mansions.
No rebuttal from Orchard for ANY of the responses. Interesting.
You can't have it both ways. If the Series S isn't holding back current gen then neither are last gen consoles.
Silly you. Microsoft aren't trying monopolize or dominate anything. They want all of their closest competitors in the gaming space, Sony and Nintendo, to all be successful equally with no clear market leader. This isn't the old MS. Phil Spencer is at the helm this go around.
@Darth
Nothing of what you posted matters in regards to my post lol. I was joking.
My overall point is, let's assume Sony made the necessary changes to PS+ to fit your definition of a true GamePass equivalent.
Microsoft wouldn't allow it on their service (without ridiculous conditions anyway) even though it would be Pro Consumer for them to do so (an image they've been try to convey) and would provide competition on their ...
@lodossrage
I was joking
Why wouldn't Microsoft allow PS+ on their platform??? Not only is it Pro consumer, it allows them to "Let Us Have Competition" that they oh so crave for.
Would be very pro consumer of Microsoft to allow PS+ on their very own platform. So if this is about competition, Let. Us. Have. Competition.
Oh no. We need Microsoft to look at what Meta is aiming to purchase so that they can buy 'em before Meta can so that they can save us from Facebook.
Naruto Ultimate Ninja 1 wasn't just a good anime game. It was a good fighting game period.
Yeah Mario's voice is the only negative from this trailer. Looks like it'll end up being good despite that.
"Business is business so it is what it is, but let’s not pretend that it is something else."
Exactly
You just move up the queue, instead of waiting on hold. Has nothing to with whether the quality of service is decent or not. Read past the headline.
It kind of is in terms of treatment. Skipping the line when waiting for a representative isn't, but it's just a different kind preferential treatment. For my cell phone company I've been able to keep the same low monthly rate for nearly a decade now while also getting stuff like Amazon prime and Google cloud storage and 5G upgrade added to the service overtime at no additional cost because I've been with them for a long time.
Buying up big 3 party publishers that already make games for your platform with the purpose of keeping games off other platforms isn't "having competition", it's actually the opposite. It's an inching towards being the sole platform that contains the vast majority of the games, a step towards monopoly.
"@Lexreborn2 how do those games even compare to FF, Street Fighter, Call of Duty, Silent Hill, Spider-Man, and Batman the list can just go on and on?"
So you are saying that Sony should just buy SE, Capcom, Konami, etc and just make their games permanently exclusive and you'll be okay with it just like you are right now with Microsoft's underhanded tactics that leave some consumers out in the cold as well. 👍
