It sounds like in the long term Sony is eventually moving away from a hardware centric business model according to the company’s senior vice president. We have already had LEGO Horizon Adventures grace the Nintendo Switch and by the sounds of it more games could eventually come to the Nintendo Switch 2 and future Nintendo platforms. Sony has been releasing first party games on PC for a while now and they have presumably been a success.

Well well well… looks like MS has a buddy in this…
This would be a very bad thing for consumers and the entitled casuals don’t realize it. Exclusives are highly pro-consumer and without them there’s no competition, no brand value, no value for the consumer. This encourages a monopoly because everyone will flock to whichever platform is the most powerful (PC) and it will hurt the industry in the long run.
Microsoft/Xbox went 3rd party because they haven’t been successful in any generation, this is a fact that no intelligent individual can deny. They admitted this themselves numerous times by using clever verbiage to fool the naive casuals into thinking they were being “pro-consumer and to stop gatekeeping”. It’s a lie, they want a monopoly in the industry and they’ve gotten a pretty good hold on it.
Sony has explored staggered releases to maintain consumer and brand value, while also releasing exclusives on PC to extend the life of a title. If they go full multiplat, their games will end up just like all of Xboxs and the quality will drop severely. There hasn’t been a single Xbox game since Sunset Overdrive that’s been worth playing, all of their franchises have been killed after being turned into highly anti-consumer GAAS titles, and they just let go of what, 9k people? Going multiplat is a death sentence. Look at SEGA, you can count on one hand how many titles they’ve released since Dreamcast died that’s worth playing, everything else has been mediocre at best.
A no exclusive future is the next industry crash, count on it.
“Look at SEGA, you can count on one hand how many titles they’ve released since Dreamcast died that’s worth playing”
For 25 years, there’s only been 1-5 Sega games worth playing? Not true at all. Lmao
At least my PS has exclusives….. 🤡
Not for long…🤡
😂
That’s the joke 🤡
…
Funny to read this knowing that there are rumors of PS6 and future Sony handheld PS….
This won’t last much long once PlayStation games prices increases.
The console wars are over brothers and sisters, Nintendo won.

Maybe because your incompetent ass?
