Pathetic article. Nobody wants to fuck someone who specifies "Windows PC", and also doesn't mention both consoles require a subscription to play online. Raise your game, Samuel Tolbert. You're better than this. I believe in you even if they don't.

All the more evidence why porting current-gen games to PC IS value-destructive to PlayStation as a console platform. SIE had better wisen up and cut that initiative out. At most stick to GaaS and legacy collections of generations-old games (maybe with some QoL upgrades) for the PC platform. At least until they have their own launcher & storefront, but that won't even be needed for at least another 15 years.

Listen to @KnittedKnight on this one, folks.

While true, that's not enough of a reason to buy the console. The PC will get the best of the exclusives as has been the case.

You're just proving the point as to why the ports to PC make no business sense long-term. It isn't the bait to hook those players to console Shawn Layden wanted, if Jim Ryan created a cadence of expectations for all games to get ported, to a crowd with no FOMO in waiting for said ports (if they chose not to buy the console yet).

That's no longer offering a sample, it's giving the least-valued people barely in the ecosystem the VIP treatment in all but timing. Not a great message to send nor good for financials, just look at Xbox.

Inappropriate behavior

Why westerners don't shave beard, moustache?

Look pretty disgusting.

An article of this nature should have never even been possible but the short-sightedness of Incompetent leadership has gotten us here.

This article is definitely a collaborative effort coming from Xbox management, don't get it twisted. This was always the end goal with Xbox putting their stuff on PC and Playstation took the bait... Just like when the media tried pressuring them with Day One games on PS+.

I hope Forbidden West absolutely bombs on PC to further drive home the point.

it's funny how the anti PC dead-enders on here are like "he's a shill but he has a point"
