They don't need to. Cloud is the way. 5 years from now you'll be streaming most your games. Sony don't look to the future. Look at how behind they are on PC ports. Its laughable. Not sustainable. Fpbp.
Same happened to music, film, art, you name it. Video Games era was surprisingly short, but that's a sign of the times. Our lives may have gotten longer but The attention span is shorter. You will never receive high art again
I mean I honestly disagree on both ends (despite having made that comment earlier), lets try to specify it a bit more, correct it: all commercially viable good games/music has/have already been tried. Now all that's left is playing good games (romhacks, and non ms bands that don't even put their work out on youtube)
I just play tboi mods, open rct2 and listen to good music. But you can't train someone to appreciate quality. It has to come from within. From the soul. Most people are just automatons. And as I'm playing those games, I know they're not the peak.
>Be Mattrick >shutdown and cripple most of the first party studios and destroy relationships with 3rd party studios >cripple the Xbox's first party games for a decade ensuring they'll never recover
When you compare the PS2 exclusive library (im not even counting pc here, just PS to Xbox), this generation is absolutely laughable for Sony. I won't even post the pic because it makes me that gutted.
Lmao. It's on appeal and given that every single argument the CMA tried failed it's going through. The CMA will then be defanged by a pissed of parliament.
Nintendo first party games are like chicken nuggets, seen as a childrens dish that is satisfying in the moment but leaves you hungry again for more soon after
Sony games are like premium potato chips they a full of flavor you might enjoy it in the moment but as soon as you finish it leaves you full of regret
Microsoft games are like plain rice cakes, you can eat them but they contain no frills and they won't sustain you, you'll need to play something else

Because Microsoft have always thrown huge piles of money at developers who proceed to embezzle and grift M$.
It happened with Brad McQuaid.
It happened with Platinum Games.
It's happened with Obsidian...
It happens over and over, basically.
They just throw a shitload of money at a studio, get burned on the investment and it doesn't even register because M$ has so much money they can set it on fire for warmth.
The original Xbox somehow managed to cobble together a few really good games, which are now obscure/forgotten treasures. Maybe they actually tried...at first?

There’s an old joke in America. The Republican Party is a party of bad ideas and the Democratic Party is a party of no ideas.
Ideas can be replaced with games, xbox replaces republicans and Sony replaces democrats.
The problem is that actual good video game producers, directors and software engineers are limited to a handful. Anyone who could be one of those people is immediately bought up to make software elsewhere at salaries that video game companies could never match.
If you're a 40+ year old with a phone that doesn't know what else they're doing then what else would you play?
People here are fricking ignorant that 30-50 year olds are the demographic with the most spare money while also having the least time to use it
>Why Microsoft can't produce quality first party games like SONY?
Sony never had a first party game, all the games they produced was paying some extendal dev, this since first ps >psygnosis >naughty dog >guerrilla games >etc
even santa monica and other "first party studios" hired external devs to make games for them, like twisted metal black or warhawk (both from incog inc)
The only true first party studio at sony is Japan studio and now the shitty Team Asobi.
just because you own Studios and IPS doesnt mean you know how to manage and use em. Sony can barely make anything fricking decent first party with the desolvement of their Japanese studios.

>Sony don't look to the future.
+10.24 rupees have been deposited into your account sir
>Sony tries to bankroll Microsoft
based levels of moronation.
SONY is such a fricking c**t to XBOX, scheming bastards!
All good games have already been made.

Why did Sony even though Microsoft was going to stay in the kid's pool forever? It's not their fault that they suck and can't compete.
>Why Microsoft can't produce quality first party games like SONY?
Sony can produce game?
>SONY
>quality
>Sony throwing the FTC at Microsoft be like
did he died?
Why'd he do it?
>Sony
>quality
surely you're talking about the graphics?
>Be Mattrick
>shutdown and cripple most of the first party studios and destroy relationships with 3rd party studios

Blame him.
>Sony
>Quality games
Such as????
Soyn deserves everything after the last of us part 2. I didn't play the games but I hate its community
>Those "quality" 1st party only make 15% of profit
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>quality first party games like SONY
like...?
He means those studios that Sony bought that he was too fricking stupid to know about

The UK blocked the deal, it isnt going through
Lmao. It's on appeal and given that every single argument the CMA tried failed it's going through. The CMA will then be defanged by a pissed of parliament.
>EU approved it
Sorry, wanker but:
EU>>>>>>>>>>>UK
MS and Activision aint gonna give A FRICK about incest isle after they conquer the FTC.
Yes anon, Microsoft is putting this much effort into this case because they know the deal is done for.
You forgot this . btw.
At this point MS is going to welcome the CMA suing them in court because all the evidence and witnesses is on MS's side.
MS doesn't care.
If Great Britain doesn't matter, then why did Protestant God place Her in the center of the world, eh Amerilards?
I wish you homosexuals were in the Earth's molten core, you can't even handle 80F weather, imagine how you'd suffer there
Just pull gamepass out of England 🙂

Can't wait for the Blizz-Act deal to fall through so Microsoft goes back to buying Sega
Sammy would actually be against it, SEGA is having mild success after years of being carried by Football Manager.
That's the secret, MS has always either bought or copied anything successful they've made.
can anyone run me through some highlights from today's thing?

seems lopsided, but after friday's hilarity i don't doubt any of that, tbh

Not a single soul is able to open up Amazon or newegg and point to gpu prices? Who the frick is paying these lawyers and why do they still get work?

all their first party games are designed for PC, Xbox needs exclusives that are designed for consoles
MS bought ABK for King. The rest of the company is unironically a bonus.
Blows my mind that Candy fricking Crush still makes money hand over fist.

Sony hasn't released a good game since patapon 3
They just don't know how
Sony has crunch. You can’t let developers do what they want or they do nothing.

Not trolling here, unironically what the frick is good there to save about Activision Blizzard?
