[THE DUCK]

Nicely titled thread to make it seem more of big deal than it really is. Sony is in a bit of a lull software wise, makes it seem like MS is taking over when that's not the case.

 

[analog_future]

You're misreading the situation. There aren't any PS owners who are upset that MS games are coming to the platform. Not sure where you're getting that from.

There are a few guys who say "MS games suck, you can keep them," but the vast majority are pleased that MS-published games, including former exclusives, are coming to the PS5. Why wouldn't they be?

well they're sure upset about something:

Well, duh. That's what happens when one company buys that many top selling games.

For Xbox fans it is as if Phil Spencer was the one who created those IPs

Imagine stanning for a company who's only notable characteristic these days is that they have unlimited money from Papa Gates to buy up an industry in which they have failed in for like 15 years now.

He crafted them with his own hands

If you include games they had nothing to do with...

When you can’t beat them, buy them.

Get back to me when they have more top sellers they actually made and didn't just buy once they were already popular.

And five of those were created by companies that had nothing whatsoever to do with microsoft/xbox at the time.
As usual.

It's show that even MS sees the Xbox fanbase as big fucking losers.

How to destroy your own fanbase and console that can't beat the competition.

Funny how this fanbase continues to change the narrative every week for themselves, just so they feel less insecure.

MS is just showing to them that Xbox itself is a joke. They are just laughing at their own fanbase which is hilarious.

Bro, this is some of thr most pathetic corporate cheerleading I've seen. Microsoft can't justify making exclusives for their own console, but they are some how winning for that??

This shit is down right sad at this point.

Now that Xbox is gone, consoles don't matter

AHAHAHAHAHAH

[Banjo64]

well they're sure upset about something:

I’m not a PS owner so stick that up ya ass.

 

[iHaunter]

This is getting exhausting. Firstly no. Second, why do you care? Do you have Microsoft stocks?

 

[Humdinger]

well they're sure upset about something:

How does any of that demonstrate that they are "upset"? (Much less about Xbox games coming to PS, which is what I responded to.)

Like I said, most of these guys are pushing back against the idea that these are games MS are responsible for creating. A couple of those quotes are a little spicy, but that's par for the course in a videogame forum. It doesn't mean these guys are fuming at the keyboard. They're just calling out what they see as bull.

p.s. and responding with nothing more than "lol" means you have no argument.

 

[Black_Stride]

Now if they could do that on their own store they would be in business.

Who Microsoft?
Have top selling games on their own store?
Are you touched in the head?

[RoadHazard]

well they're sure upset about something:

I'm not upset about anything. I just think MS has made very little on their own and bought a lot. Which makes the premise of this thread a lot less impressive.

 

[Snake29]

well they're sure upset about something:

Or you are upset about the comments? Facts are speaking, it's hard isn't it? We just see how much bullshit MS and Xbox talk week in week out.

 

[Humdinger]

"You're upset" is just a way to dismiss comments. It's a variation of the old "you mad" meme. It's dumb. It's a cheap tactic to try to discredit what someone is saying while ignoring the content of what they say.

 

[Feel Like I'm On 42]

It's show that even MS sees the Xbox fanbase as big fucking losers.

How to destroy your own fanbase and console that can't beat the competition.

EXACTLY. It isn't Sony fans who should be upset by this news ...it's every Xbox owner who should! Like why the fuck did I spend $500 on a Series X for just for MS to eventually put everything on PS5?

This is the generation where because of Nice Guy Phil and MS putting this stuff in motion, consoles are starting a long slow death. All this multiplatform shit and subscriptions has weakened consoles importance and made PC the dominant platform. It will only get worse as time goes on and everything is released on everything.

All console gamers should be annoyed at how homogenized everything is becoming and by MS AND SONY focusing on multiplatform. It was 100% Microsoft pushing the industry in this direction. All the consolidation was started by MS too ...but Sony has followed suit. Of course people can't get past console wars instead of just sticking to the reality that even tho MS forced Sony's hand, Sony is heading in the same direction.

 

[simpatico]

Between the Fallout show and Sea of Thieves, those green bastards are experiencing a nice winning streak. If Heavenly Sword 2 turns out any good, that's another one. This fall Sony has first party megaton after first party megaton dropping, so MS better get these wins in now.

Where you at Nintendo?

They're sitting on 11 billion dollars, and no debt.

Partially true, but you give them little credit in terms of not meddling. They have bought a lot of companies over the years and actually largely left them alone with large budgets. For the most part, when MS aquires a company, they don't slash and burn, they run with the projects already in motion. The lemmings thing isn't true, just they have a lot of fans with low self esteem, they don't need to be paid.

As tp foie gras, you know it's evil.

Bro it was a joke chill lmao

 

[Superbean]

Lmao so much xbot cope here.
Good job Microsoft, you bought the top games!

 

[Clear]

The mental gymnastics are truly... special.

A need to CLAIM a win so desperate that it completely overrides what the "win" actually is!

 

[thismeinteil]

Lmao. I can't wait to see the copium when MS comes out and says Xbox HW is a thing of the past. "Yea, take that Sony/PS. WE WOOONN, BOYZ!! FIRST TO GO ALL 3RD PARTY!! THAT'S HOW YOU REALLY WIN THE CONSO...ER...UH... ENGAGEMENT WAR!!"

 

[onQ123]

That's like Lori Loughlin bragging about the scholarship her daughter got to go to college

 

[gothmog]

Can't wait to see hardware numbers.

 

[StereoVsn]

Eh, what’s $80 billion between friends. Satya can find it between the cushions. They are blowing cool $100 billion right now trying to produce hardware to replace Nvidia for AI work.

 

[MayauMiao]

 

[Methos#1975]

Wait till the MS stock holders see that Xbox games sell better on PS than the Xbox, bye bye exclusives

 

[StereoVsn]

I think everything depends on how much the PS walled garden holds it's consumer base in the next generation. Two possible paths.

- If Sony holds all their consumers and can keep all that 3rd party software money, they will keep the status quo and have lots of passive income to fund their expensive 1st party games.
- If consumers do migrate away from consoles over time, MS is positioned to be the dominant force in the industry as the largest publisher by far. Sony would have less passive income or incentive for 2nd party exclusives and would rely entirely on 1st party, which puts out mega sellers, but doesn't put out a ton of them. MS games don't do as well critically as Sony games, but the sheer amount of stuff they are going to be releasing across all studios over the next decade is crazy.

I agree, they just need to put all these games on GamePass and 200 million GamePass users is a sure thing!

Plus if you think about these games are really a Trojan Horse for Microsoft and PS5 is an Xbox.

 

[Vroadstar]

Dang so it's not only one Trojan horse now, but we have Trojan horses!

 

[XXL]

It's sooooo entertaining watching this happen in real time.

 

[Hero of Spielberg]

Wait till the MS stock holders see that Xbox games sell better on PS than the Xbox, bye bye exclusives

True. Imagine what Sony shareholders must be thinking seeing the success of Helldivers day 1 on PC too ... it's going to be an interesting few years coming up

 

[Punished Miku]

I didnt say anything about GP or Xbox. Just commenting on the amount of games they both put out.

 

[TheKratos]

And it only cost 80b to achieve such a small feat lol

 

[cash_longfellow]

That's why there's so much defensiveness. Can't talk about the actual subject matter if reality doesn't fit your preference.

The OP or title never even says 1st party (even though it is). The first sentence in the OP states MS has grown, meaning they're clearly talking about acquisitions. Nothing in the OP is claiming Phil Spencer crafted these. It's just pointing out a plainly obvious truth, but that's too much to handle I guess even when it's on the platform people on here prefer.

Edited due to referencing wrong poster, sorry Miku.

 

[Crayon]

No podium meme yet?!?! The fuck, guys?

 

[lh032]

i mean they just bought those best seller multiplatform games.

 

[Heisenberg007]

It's a very stupid article for multiple reasons.

1. These games were already selling well on PS before MS purchased their companies,
2. It's for a specific time-period. Not an all-time best selling list anyway.

 

[SHA]

Consoles Wars 1972-2023

[blue velvet]

Games that were developed before the acquisition shouldn't even count. Microsoft didn't fund those.
