There were a ton of negative reviews on PC due to performance issues so my guess is it is just Bethesda being Bethesda.

That's just your fault for not having a better PC
And that is Todd Howard being Todd Howard, in a nutshell.

Hifi rush is a very niche game. It had a peak of 6,000 players on steam at launch. it is not going to be a big hit with the PS fanbase though stranger things like Helldivers 2 have happened.
This is like Sony porting Sackboy to PC and wondering why it didnt sell. These niche music rhythm games just dont sell well nowadays. The days of Jet Pack Radio are long gone.
I will be curious to see how Sea of Thieves performs. Looks like Skull and Bones flopped but there is something about sea of thieves thats appealing to gamers. I dont know what that is but i wouldnt be surprised if thats a game that PS gamers might end up buying.
Other than that, I think Starfield will sell really well though maybe not as much as it wouldve now that the IP is tainted due to the word of mouth. Forza Horizon 5 on the other hand has great word of mouth and might sell really well. Indiana Jones and Hellblade 2 are not going to set the charts on fire on any platform but they will get a bigger boost due to the Playstation base preferring action adventure games with big cinematic moments.

Bit heavy on the ole PC Master Race there. People will be people. I'd align it more with PC gamers choosing whether or not to buy games on Epic vs Steam and all that drama.

lol it would go down like the Titanic.They never got a 60fps patch for Starfield on Xbox, did they?

I like Fable and would mess with some older Halo Multiplayer, but that’s about it for me as well.

aany info about a physical release?

I'm willing to bet that Sony and Nintendo demand physical releases, hence Phil Spencer suddenly talking about how they will continue to support physical.

So true. Remember that evil Sony closed Japan. We’re starving for something that is not a bloody cinematic experience. Thank god for Squenix.Ponies enjoying this game.
YASSS!

That wasn't their original intent, no. Just things end up being that way when your plans don't come to fruition.

Anyone keeping up with hardware sales data last year should have seen this coming a mile away. The moment Microsoft said they want to bring games to everyone, I knew what was coming. Remember when they announced blade but couldn't confirm console exclusivity to xbox? That was the first hint of things to come.

They had a chance. They couldn't keep CoD off of PS and the Starfield situation not moving consoles made them pivot. It's 100% what they wanted to do. Those moves were always about playing takeaway from PlayStation

Not for me but great for the devs at Tango to get their game sold in Japan.

Yeah it was. Funny how Microsoft thought they could take sony on just by spending money and instead, they had to run to sony just to be able to make some money from all those acquisitions. They don't have the install base to do it with just xbox.

I doubt (at least I hope) this will be a numbered LRG release, hopefully can pick it up at amazon or bby.

I didn't finish it, but it is a fun game nonetheless.

I think it was the opposite. I think this was always the long term plan after both the xbone and the series both underwhelmed.
They would have absolutely known that a company as big as Activision would need to release multiplatform to actually make money.

You always keep that door open, but they did want to foreclose on key games initially, it just didn't go the way they were hoping it would. Hence, plan B.
I don't understand why they use the letters X/S when discussing physical games. Perhaps they are planning an external drive for the S in their hardware roadmap.So true.

I dont think they bought ABK to release cod on Ps either .. but cma fckd them.. now the marked fckd them ... and third party here we go. Last chance.

What time is it?
I don't think Jason is wrong. The Activision deal just changed the dynamics of things. Had that not gone through, I'm not sure we'd see the multi-console push.

Too bad MS kept it from the majority of console users for so long, eh?

"Well gentlemen, now that Hi-Fi Rush is going to Playstation that means Sony has won the console wars. Microsoft invests more than 70 Billion to port games for the damn competitor... from now on, Playstation it is for me. I don't want this damned console, this console goes to where it belongs... TO THE TRASH CAN, TO THE DAMN TRASH CAN, that damned console. Fuck you Phil Spencer, Fuck you... from now on Playstation it is for me, never again am i buying an Xbox game... there (the trash can) it is where that damend console deserves to be. Trash console... Phil Spencer is a sycophant, Phil Spencer is a CUCK, Phil Spencer is USELESS! THAT'S THE PRICE OF TRUSTING PHIL SPENCER... that they port games for Playstation".

Probably getting this one as long as it's not more than $30 or so. Seems like a game I'd enjoy.

Same here. But then I heard someone say something about nine inch nails in there and I'm feeling a little more open minded.

It’s a good game, a bit repetitive at times but good all the same.
I wouldn’t be surprised if it ended up on the Switch successor as a launch title

If it's $30 I'll buy it just to show that Playstation support.

Do you want to talk about SF V or FF VII remake, or Stellar Blade ? Yeah, too bad for sure.
