He said he'll put games on other consoles.
Did he say how many?
I havent read it but Im guessing COD and maybe titles lile Diablo
No specifics. He just mentions they now have the ability to do what they've always wanted. Which is to bring their game to all platforms (mentioned Sony and Nintendo specifically).

If the rumors are true and we're getting Sea of Thieves, Hi-Fi and even Starfield, and I think they're true, then it's not just Activision titles. Keep in mind that these rumors are coming from the biggest xbox shills. They wouldn't be damaging the brand with news like that unless absolutely necessary, meaning it's pre-emptive damage control.

They did outright lie in court but shareholders are a much bigger deal. They're basically the people who hold your money. You don't mess with that. Severe legal consequences for trying to screw shareholders and investors over.

Damn!

" the poster seems to allude that next-gen Xbox consoles will be akin to partnership like 3rd party controllers whereby other manufacturers will make the hardware which can run Xbox games."

.....why? 🤔 gaming PC OEMs already exist.... having a company makes a console just for your xbox games makes zero sense.

Maybe he’s the problem and not Jim Ryan
Don't pass the buck for Ryan, he had enough silly quoted and decisions of his own. I think it's safer to say PS stellar business decision making died in Andrew House's tiny hands when he left.

I've now seen PC YouTube channels that are afraid Sony will pull their games from PC if Xbox does as PC will become their most direct competitor.

It's funny how stupid Sony is to not realize that PC is their biggest competitor before it's too late.

PC is one of Playstation's biggest growth areas. There's 300M PC players in China and less than a million PS5s in China. Kenichiro Yoshida doesn't want to sell Stellar Blade to them?

internal documents leaked from insomniac show wild growth in pc sales every year since they started.

according to this gamesindustrydotbiz article, officially licensed consoles sold in china are subject to a lot of restrictions by the state. it's more attractive to get hardware imported from japan, which are more expensive.

No idea if it's true or not. But if MS puts all their games on PS, then I only need one console. Fine by me. I am gonna need a 4TB HDD though, minimum!

Vast majority of those PC gamers are all playing live service junk like League of Legends and PUBG and have no interest in single player experiences. But as AAA gaming grows in China, so does console gaming, Sony knows this and thats why they're getting ahead of it with the China Hero Project and collabs with Mihoyo.

They just announced this new Genshin bundle today 😁 and I bet it'll be flying off shelves.

Meh. Already played it on Series X. A gears collection, on the other hand...Not gonna happen but that'd be my thing. Already have them on Xbox, would buy again on PS.

If all the investment that went into porting everything to PC had gone to a single extra game that sold 7m+ on PlayStation it would've been a much better deal.

Remember that Sony had to adapt all their studios and tools to develop and support games on PC and it even included buying studios dedicated to it.

It was a poor strategy to begging with but it was also extremely poorly executed. Single player games that all were getting cracked day 1 and with PC players using the ports to mock PlayStation and as a reason for people to never buy their consoles.

It's objectively an extreme failure, they haven't even made $250m from every port combined yet. Epic offered Sony a 4 game for $200m deal to put their games exclusively on EGS, they would've been much better off taking that deal instead of 10 games making <200m....I can't be mad at Square Enix for putting Kingdom Hearts on Epic Games and making FF7Remake a 1 year exclusive. Most games simply sell like trash on Steam

Anyone saying that these are good numbers is beyond disingenuous. Nixxes being a PS3 Remaster studio would yield 10x more money than these ports and wouldn't have devalued the brand and games. I was thinking about making a thread on this so the twitter bot could pick it up but i'm too lazy
