And like 3 or 4 anonymous responses parroting the same stuff MS have been saying, hardly seems like an impartial sampling.
'No? Then STFU! You and Sony both got nothing! Take you L, find someplace worm to cry and moan or grow some pair and just buy an Xbox or PC if you want that game so bad'
You sound like a 5 year old lol. If I want to play the game I will do so on my PC as I'm upgrading my graphics card soon, but it looks very mediocre from what they've shown anyway, I'm not crying for the game on playstation, I and many others are just coming to a logical conclusion and c...
'Not even a port secured, so a PS5 version of Starfield never existed outside world of mouth'
Hey lets just spout a load of crap without evidence, Phil is that you?
Yeahhhhh, Starfield was just gonna skip Sony's platform before the buyout when the last I don't know how many Bethesda games released on and sold superior on PS for almost a decade because reasons, that reasoning you suggest is flimsy at best.
Yeah I mean, what happens if in a scenario they get activision and in a few years time they still fail to gain substantial market share from Playstation? Does this mean they get to buy EA, Take Two and whoever else all for 'competition' sake? Where's the line lol.
Isn't this just regurgitated from many months ago? I swear this came up before, since for some bizarre reason MS are mentioning Bloodborne with these 4, an IP funded and owned by Sony, and how are MS privyy to deals for the other games, are they just saying this without evidence? Nobody really knows, it's not as if FF has strong sales on Xbox and with Gamepass eating up game sales as per recent statements from MS themselves, maybe SE just didn't want to bother?
Ergh, have they not seen that the market has largely sensationally rejected blackchain rubbish? Thought this nonsense was going to die with matsuda.
This has already been fixed btw.
Uncharted 4 finished Drake's story perfectly, and after the medoicre 3rd entry in the TR reboot series I don't see how ND lost anything personally.
'be a gamer and not some defender of a console'
Coming from one of the biggest Xbox cheerleaders on the site, pot kettle black.
'Living off sales of games and hardware is a thing of the past, but like I said just wait and you will see :)'
Ridiculous reassurance to imply that hardware and software sales don't matter anymore, or is that only because MS' sales have stagnated? You gonna tell that to Nintendo as well? I swear you GP drones are like the borg. Having a couple of million players play something basically for free is never going to make the same waves as a Sony or Nintendo gam...
Well, according to MS they have so little market share, they are saying this themselves in the Activision deal, is that not 'losing'?
'It’s obvious they need more so having more franchises associated to the Xbox brand is a start. To make it more even. Nothing is wrong with the activision deal it’s business as usual it’s something that has always happened in the history of gaming. But all of a sudden it’s a crime.'
Are you honestly serious? Something that has always happened in gaming? WHEN did anyone splurge 7 billion on a publisher, let alone 10x that figure? It's a complete flase equivalency...
'finally have competition' so they never had any competition from nintendo? During the 360 era? So because MS and Xbox have been incompetent as hell for the last decade, this justifies being allowed to buy up swathes of the industry and IPs to exclude long standing games from their competition? They are so bad with the large amount of studios and IPs they've acquired in recent years that they still can't compete?
Shows more about MS desparation and competenc...
Sony are well within their rights to try stifle MS' attempts at starting a monopoly. What did they do as soon as they bought Bethesda? Swooped Starfield from right under Playstation despite Phil being very vocally against exclusive games and claiming they harm the industry. What's to stop them doing the same with Activision? Playstation will never see another Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Doom, Wolfenstein and other Bethesda games again.
Regardless of what they are saying...
Of course, first it was a vague 'beyond existing agreements', then a '10 year deal', then 'will release it on PS as long as PS exists', it's all public hot air to try appease regulators and make Sony look bad, given MS and Phil's track records of lies, I know who I believe, MS can't be trusted.
Not all the claims are bizarre at all, MS are spending their time doing business publicly instead of privately with flimsy 'contract' offers, talking mounds of rubbish with lots of baseless claims without evidence, trying to drag Sony through the mud with a public PR campaign while trying to appease regulators, pretending to be a useless little 2 trillion dollar company, who already own more studios and IPs than Sony after their spending spree since 2019/20, Sony are justa agreeing wi...
Oh look, the same false equivalency lol.
We just wanna play games man lol.
They'll give you the usual rumour that Sony tried to get Starfield first and that pLaTfOrMs WeRE nEvEr AnNoUnCeD, as if the games would skip PS for no reason when Bethesda games released and sold better on PS for years lol
