    Oh no…

    Please. Please don’t make me address my 300 game backlog on Steam.

    I’m a PC gamer so I don’t have to deal with console bullshit. Been working out great for me since 1998.

    I thought they were making complete bank by getting rid of their exclusives and going the open platform route (which everyone complained about)?

    They did so well that Xbox became an irrelevant choice between PC and Playstation.

    Plus they were doing delayed PC releases, so I don’t really see how that would affect PS sales since the port would come out much later.

      It’s Sony. The various divisions never know what each other is doing and the moment a new executive comes in, they charge everything to make it seem like they’re important.

    PlayStation at this point is like those soldiers you find deep in the woods, trying to fight the war on their own, ignorant to the news that the war ended years ago. still trying to fight the console wars in 2026.

    Uh, hard pill to swallow. So all my favorite Playstation games require a Playstation in the future? Like… Eeeeehm, let me check my steam account with almost 700 games… Eeeeehm… Never mind, I found none.

      Yeah. I’m just so beyond good without playing games that are locked to console. I kinda thought we were over this tbh, it’s unfortunate that Sony is moving backwards.

      I will say that I’m making an exception for GTA6 because, well, it’s GTA, and I’ll be able to sell the phycial copy and console when it releases on PC, it shouldn’t cost too much extra to be able to play at launch.

      Kind of like Epic to be honest. They pay out the nose for exclusive rights, thinking shit today works like it did 20 years ago.

    That’s a bold move, Cotton. Let’s see if it pays off for them.

    Tap for spoiler

    Valve has made the console model irrelevant. This is Sony officially giving up on the gaming market.
