They're a business and they own the IP so I guess it's right and good that they make the decision that's right for them. I can't think of any social principles that might count for more than the total authority of a corporation and its sacrosanct IP ownership.
these are uk numbers and you're ok extrapolating it to the whole world? but you didn't like the logic of comparing known steam numbers with a known fixed player cap?
You evidently need it explained to you because you keep saying incoherent things. There's no "console audience". There's just games. If I plug a computer into a TV and play The Last of Us Pt 1 with a Dualshock, am I "Console Audience"? It's a totally meaningless objection you're raising.
Great quotes! Peter Moore was the only good Xbox exec in my book. I think the two most important bits are here, about the cost of putting out console hardware (as Microsoft, one of the worlds richest corps!)
"And why do you need a bespoke piece of hardware that costs us, Microsoft, billions...
Why not? There's no capability of a console that PC can't do as well or better. Like this one:

I think it has to do with the awkward PSN growing pains on PS3, the cutoff in digital libraries, many of the exciting games having significant multiplayer components that won't work, etc. I want it to happen, but I wouldn't bet on it.
I agree it's a huge technical challenge, but even if they could do it technically, I'm not convinced they would. I suspect the only way we're gonna play PS3 games legitimately outside PS3 hardware is if they do a remaster/port.
- Playstation becomes an open PC platform. You buy a 'PS6' and it works exactly how you'd expect, but you can also just install the PS OS on any regular PC you want or launch the PS6 UI as a Windows app and run games from your Playstation library (including PS4/PS5, yes there's some...
Establishing the standard that public criticism of Apple is just cause to have your ability to publish revoked is dark shit man.
Do you support the idea that Sony can justifiably close access to your Playstation account if you criticize them on Twitter? You're not forced to do business if you...
There's a lot of stuff they should just release all the source code and art to like MAG, Warhawk, Fat Princess, etc. Lots of great games from the PS3 era that will never be brought back to sale. If they're not doing a SOCOM reboot, I think we've seen the last of Starhawk. Tho tbf, I wouldn't...
