No problem Mr. CEO emulation will do this for you.
Your loss.
Oh yes they will. You've just decided to stop making money on them. Fine by us.
yup. if they can emulate the ps3's insano-architecture they can sure as fuck figure out whatever comes next. they're simply guaranteeing a wave of piracy instead of profiting off their already developed IPs.

"Everyone keep buying our console even though we keep raising the price. No? Fine, we'll keep all the games just for our platform, surely that will get you to buy a PS5."

So we got grifted by Bungie and need you to buy consoles, guys.
Bungie convincing Sony that they were worth 3.6 billion dollars is the grift of the decade. Sony either did no research or they really are the dumbest, most gullible motherfuckers on the planet.
Bungie played an absolute blinder by signing up with Activision all those years ago as all the shitty monetisation they pulled got blamed on Bobby K.
Nope, turns out Bungie was just that shitty the whole time.

We don't want any of that... What do you call it? Money? HAH!
No problem. Then other companies will get my money (and time). I'm not buying your over priced and proprietary console.
Love it or hate it, this is why we don’t want Xbox to fail.
Can they both fail? Consoles kind of suck. Closed platform owned by mega corps. Their main appeals of "easy" and "cheaper" haven't been true for years.
Microsoft could have done like a ... Steam machine for windows like 25 years ago. Optimized windows install on certified hardware, games that also play on desktop windows. They could've made steam. Except they couldn't because they're a souless corporate husk full of parasitic ghouls.
Fuck em. Fuck them all.

Right now, Indie games are wiping the asses of big industry games. Megabonk, Coal LLC, you name it. Singular people putting out content getting thousands of purchases. I know they have a team, but Relogic selling 70m copies of Terraria?

Kicking the asses of

They're ready to kick gum and chew ass
I mean... For this to actually matter Sony would have to release a decent game for the exclustivity. The last decent one in my eyes was Ragnarok, and I never even finished it.
I have a PS5. It hasen't been turned on in almost 2 years. I have no reason to. I won't lose any sleep over this decision.

Well he’s wrong because all console games eventually come to PC one way or another. He’s just ensuring they won’t be coming first under their control.

Spider-Man 2 is literally the only thing they have that I want to play, and that is not worth getting a console for.

It seems that the last great Playstation was in fact Playstation 3.
I don’t believe them. They just think that lying to the public will sell more PS5s… somehow
