From the article, this sounds more like Sony are just going to push more mobile-focused spin offs instead of actually bringing legitimate console titles to iOS. I'm sure they'll do good numbers, but it's not really an "industry shaker" since they're already doing it.The PlayStation Mobile publishing label already exists and operates, and has resulted in a few mobile titles including "Run Sackboy! Run!" and "Uncharted: Fortune Hunter" among others. It has also served as the publisher for some PC ports of PlayStation games, including "Horizon: Zero Dawn" and "Everybody's Gone to the Rapture."
Yeah, I remember posting their Playstation Mobile section on the Play Store when some ppl were freaking out about recent Sony mobile gaming news.From the article, this sounds more like Sony are just going to push more mobile-focused spin offs instead of actually bringing legitimate console titles to iOS.

If thats the case they must have already went 3rd party and we all missed it.sony is getting ready to go 3rd party.
after the big 3 swallow up all the third parties, a console doesnt make sense anymore
Microtransaction money on the table from phone games.
this makes no sense, as there will be games that each specifically made for mobile and console.sony is getting ready to go 3rd party.

Most people don't give a fuck about the feature.They should work on fucking Remote Play. Shit is in miserable state rn, even on PS5. They should really invest in and promote this feature more. Most people never heard or tried it.
It never works out that way, like ever. I wish it did but that's the way things go.Microtransaction money on the table from phone games.
Which if they use it to fund more AAA exclusives on ps5...
If only it were so simpleWhich if they use it to fund more AAA exclusives on ps5...
Care to elaborate on obsolete?HIJO DE LA.....
NO WAY I'M GOING TO BUY AN IPHONE ... OBSOLETE AND EXPENSIVE
And yet still 2 generations ahead in soc and outperforming phones with twice the ram. Each to their own. You like android go for it. I like the iOS system and iPhones. I’m not going to shit on you for buying an androidHIJO DE LA.....

Jim might be single-handedly destroying Sony.
Mobile gaming is 3x the size of console gamin
Suddenly, mobile games don't suck anymore....
LolNot just iPhones though, even Android. And it's mostly the new mobile division under PS. It's mobile gaming and probably they'll port PSP/PS Vita games on mobiles as well as most mobiles can run those games, PS3 games as well probably for some. Maybe that's part of the PSP/Vita and PS3 stores closure.
This is the future of gaming, but in backwards. Demanding games will still need consoles and capable PC's. Eventually mobiles would run even PS4 games. Smart move from Sony to tackle billions of mobile gamers instead of wasting time and resources on cloud gaming that most gamers don't give a shit about, although both can co-exit but one is vastly profitable. More than sure mobile gamers will appreciate more mature games than many of the ones offered currently on mobiles.
Sony is hiring for PlayStation mobile development
A recent job posting by Sony seems to imply the publisher is looking to increase its presence in the mobile gaming industry.www.nme.com
This right here. They’re all saying it. AAA development costs hundreds of millions and it’s a massive risk for them. Very few new games generate new franchises. To be able to recoup potential loses is a win for everyone as this mitigates elements of risk and drives creativity.More like expanding the PS brand enormously. Jim Ryan is a fucking genius. With only $3.3B profit out of a massive $25.5B revenue, this makes pure sense and will bring so much headroom to both console gaming and mobile gaming expand in parallel so they can support more risky projects on PS5.
Anyone thinking of PS5 games or even PS4 at the moment to be mobile games could as well use a shoe as a brain with all the trolls in this thread. If any coming to PS4/5 it'll be simple F2P games like fortnite and so.
and there it is....
Lol

In essence, if you want new IPs they need to generate other forms of income. We know how loathed loot boxes are....
I'm sure any other manufacturer name in the same thread title would have led to exactly the same comments. Mobile has always been what "smart and successful" gaming companies invest into. Gears Pop was universally acclaimed here on GAF.Suddenly, mobile games don't suck anymore....
