That doesnt translate in to a chip shortage, which is necessary to make the console in the 1st place.
7 Consoles That Were Hard To Get For Months After They Launched
From unexpectedly high demand to scalpers, there are numerous reasons why fans might not be able to get ahold of a new console.www.cbr.com
Yup just piss all on the 100 million plus user base on their own platforms lolSony, all you need to do is spend a little to expand PSN to PC. Sell your games directly to us PC folks. Cut off the middle men and keep all the profit for yourself. You can even do day and date. No need to be shackled by chip shortages and hardware sales. Hardware don't make you profit anyway.
Those things are nice. but wouldnt music/car license be an issue?
What an utterly retarded walled-garden logic.
Like with anything in life, money solves them problems. And all that would be taken care of prior to trying to release on PC or any platform for that matter.
Same as your desperate port begging logic
Same as your desperate port begging logic
No one is" port begging", whatever this bullshit term may mean in your twisted fanboy logic.Same as your desperate port begging logic
So literally asking for games to come to a platform over and over again that aren't on it isn't port begging anymore? Okay you are trolling at this point. Good day
easy ignore list entry. Trolls get more stupid by the day....So literally asking for games to come to a platform over and over again that aren't on it isn't port begging anymore? Okay you are trolling at this point. Good day
who said anything about these people?
Money didnt help forza horizon getting pulled from MS stores.
I already bought every Sony ps4 exclusive. It would be great experience, If i can play it on my pc again.
And don't forget epic games throwing silly money at you for a year's exclusivity. I think with Sony now looking for billion dollar acquisitions and it not possible to produce the number of ps5's needed they will try and generate as much cash off pc as possible to fund their endeavors.
Sony doesnt care. They are business, and want money. They wont survive that long with hardware business, when there are other mediums on the rise.
That wasn't a money problem, that was a business decision. They want folks buying the newer games. Not holding onto the older games as their focus is on the new games with the live services.
GT7 was on the nvidia list. I honestly can't wait. If it's just as polished as GoW it will be amazing
Its license issues, not forcing people in to new games. They had to remove the game, once the license was up.
is this your conclusion? If that is it, I am just going to leave it that way.
This entire statement is emphatically false, Sony doesn't care about their own platform users but is still supporting the ps4 and spend billions on R&D for the ps5 and releasing a new console.
I see your point and I agree Sony could find ways to make more money (though I imagine Epic Store Exclusives are the way they're go, they have a stake in them), but this last point is not true. The console sale is simply a gateway, they want people to be locked in the ecosystem. Through the console, they get a lot of money around it. Accessories, PSPlus/Now and so on.Sony, all you need to do is spend a little to expand PSN to PC. Sell your games directly to us PC folks. Cut off the middle men and keep all the profit for yourself
I know! And so far the list hasn't let me down. Hopefully GT7 continues the trend.
Again, they could've solved the licensing issue with money. It isn't like Microsoft doesn't have a shiton. Which goes back to my point of them wanting you to move on to the newer games. They didn't want to sink further money into the older game. And this only affected those who hadn't bought that version of Forza Horizon. I mean by that point, you were either gonna get it when they had it on sale for $10 or not before they delisted those Forza games and the DLC. People moved on my friend.
Finally someone posting some sense. All of a sudden a few people think the console concept makes no sense and that the last 5 decades of it were insignificant.
And it's probably way higher currently.
Let's also not forget that the 30% is for the first $10 million, then it's 25% until $50 million and 20% after that.
It's the only thing that matter. $$$
Because it`s impossible to just be a normal consumer who likes having a choice.
When you have your own shop/platform steam user numbers are simply irrelevant.
It's PC only games that tend to act like that. I have all the consoles AND a pretty powerful PC and still prefer playing on consoles because they are right under my TV and everything works out of the box.
Good thing even Sony themselves disagree with this utterly stupid fanboy mentality.
How exactly are they irrelevant?
Specially when their hardware is constrained
EPIC store is generally not well received and I don't think Sony can put a game (which EPIC haven't moneyhatted) while foregoing the 12 percent cut. Second thing is the Tencent influence which may turn off Sony. The small stake is for a specific purpose (co development related I assume) so I don't believe Sony would push for a deeper publishing partnership with Epic.
What do you mean”actually tried”? The game looks and plays outstanding on PC, was realeased on Steam and Epic meaning it got a very wide release on PC.
Look at activision revenue. Their store almost made almost the same amount of console users.
That is not the reason. Its software sales. You need to have huge amount of games to sell.
This is not true and there's plenty of evidence out there to confirm it. Some don't care but most do. There is a reason companies put games on Steam even if they have their own store.
Dude the Epic store isnt popular, it isnt. Thats just fact. You only have to look at how well games sell on Steam after they leave the 1 year Epic exclusivity. People would rather wait a whole year than play on Epic.
What the fuck is this minimal effort crap? The game runs great on PC is largely free of bugs…what more do you fucking want? I’ve put over 22 hours into the game and have not had a single crash, bug or performance issue. The only thing I don’t like is the forced depth of field.
have you seen the library epic has, compared to steam?
Exactly and I respect you for having a honest exchange instead of like others that use "PC master race" talking points and insults.
