Four Xbox Games are going multiplatform (Pentiment, Sea of Thieves, Grounded, Hi-Fi Rush). Starfield and indiana Jones not coming to other platforms

[xollowsob]

im fucking laughing at xbots at era who are really believing that these only 4 games will be the ones,fuck,these idiots never learn

Gamers: "these games will be multiplat"
Xboxera: "lol no, sonypony keep wishing lolol"
Spencer: "these four games are coming"

Gamers: "more than four games are coming"
Xboxera: "yeah those four are but not more. Lol Sonypony keep wishing lolol"
Spencer: "these games are coming..."


It's all so tiresome.

They will all come to PlayStation

Starfield will come 6 months after the DLC drops at the latest

You don't test the waters like this. You start the rollout with those titles. MS going 3rd party.

 

[BroodCorp]

Seems like they’re breaking the news piecemeal.

 

[Gods&Monsters]

He is excites about the announcement but couldn't name the games? He was clearly ashamed to see his massive failure as the head of Xbox being finally exposed after so long.

He can't name them but he's letting Tom Warren do it for him. Why? He has such a weird relationship with the press. They all suck him one by one.

 

[avenovah]

This is just the beginning. "Case-by-case" my ass.

 

[Yurinka]

that's not the plan that we'll announce today, even if it's grenlighted and we're already working in many other future ports and even day one releases.

They already more than tested the waters with all the Minecraft, Bethesda and AB games. They aren't testing anything here.

similar to how Sony is approaching PC ports

Yes, but with the difference that unlike with MS, PS has a super successful and profitable business in their console which is their main gaming business and main corporate business, so won't kill it releasing all their games elsewhere day one.

Sony will keep releasing each year more PS exclusive games than PC ports, which means the number of PS exclusives will continue growing every yer. And aside from some of their GaaS, their ported games will continue to be releasing in PC 2 or more years after their original release on PS.

Phil " just 4 games released to PlayStation, no promises on future games."

What Phil really means is, we are testing the waters with a couple of titles as we are shit scared of the backlash if we announce more at the moment

Best rest assured we will put a lot more on other systems once the pushback has died down.

That’s literally what Tom Warren wrote on his article.
Era and bots are coping, though.

Yes, but with the difference that PS has a super successful and profitable business in their console.

So Sony will keep releasing each year more PS exclusive games than PC ports and other than some of their GaaS, their ported games will continue to be releasing in PC 2 or more years after their original release on PS.

It's clearly not the case that they will release more exclusives than PC ports "every year". We'll be lucky if we get 5 first party exclusives, and they can pop out a new PC catalog port at any time.

As for the 2 year wait, I think that's going to get tighter and tighter. Sony's still not at the stage where the main devs are handling their own ports, and that has to happen. The leaked Spiderman 2 build shows they're maturing. When that becomes the norm, I don't think it flies to wait 2 years to release a product that was ready at launch. Especially when the live service stuff is selling equivalent to PS5 on PC.

If Hi-Fi Rush/Grounded/Sea of Thieves/Pentiment all suck and don't matter, like Xbox fans are saying, what are the Xbox games that don't suck and actually matter then?

We're in February and there's already more than half a dozen games announced to be released this year on PS and not in PC, both from 1st and 3rd party. More will be announced during the rest of the year as happens every year.

Sony will release a couple GaaS day one on both places and maybe 2 or 3 ports (maybe HFW, TLOUP2 and Until Dawn?). So yes, 2024 will be like the previous years where there are more games released on PS that aren't released at least at launch in PC.

When they taste PS game sales (something they never had with Xbox) they will bring all their games ASAP.

 

[Zzero]

grounded i bet.

Blade too but they won't announce it for awhile. Should be obvious but a lot more than just 4 games will be going over in the end.

 

[ethomaz]

Ohhhh Warrior is at least being honest here instead to try to put that blind glasses to not see the reality.

 

[Plextorage]

 

[flaccidsnake]

I'm pretty sure he's talking about Online Xbox people with this, believe it or not.

 

[ethomaz]

The OP is a bit misleading?

Phil didn’t deny Starfield or Indiana in the future.
