I mean sure, if you want to make a game for DOGS!
You mean the Psygnosis that continued to act independently and published games on Sega Saturn, Nintendo 64 and Windows?From Wikipedia, “Psygnosis was a British video game developer and publisher…”
They’ll get what they’re given.As Jim said, they need a better deal. Current one is inadequate
Of course; Sony wanted their stranglehold from the PS2 to continue. I believe Microsoft tried something similar last generation, which ended up impacting some indies.
For me, Ryan's comments read like an admission that Call of Duty is foundationally important to them. Dollars wise, sure, that's obvious. But, I think it goes deeper: how many PSN subs do they have thanks to Call of Duty alone? Those subs pack long tail incentives for Sony - you already play COD on PS, might as well play everything else on PS, too, since you're paying for it. That drives additional game sales, additional DLC sales, incentives friends to buy PlayStation, etc. I think Ryan sees that if Microsoft pulls CoD, they'll lose their biggest long term install base driver. I could be completely wrong, however.
Glad Jim Ryan is calling out Phil Spencer on his phony bullshit slight of hand everyone could see right through
But I thought Sony and all its owners thought that theres no way COD wouldnt be on playstation, and all the Xbox fans were wrong in saying it would only be on playstation for a few years?
I’m really not getting that next-gen Quake reboot on the PS5, right?
Switch port it is!
It's literally in writing. Not sure what the problem is.In business, if it isn't in writing (and therefore legally enforceable) a guarantee isn't worth shit. Its PR.
Trusting Microsoft is not an option.
Not so long ago everyone was jumping up and down saying that COD would remain on PlayStation because of some statements put out by Microsoft.In business, if it isn't in writing (and therefore legally enforceable) a guarantee isn't worth shit. Its PR.

Develop an alternative? To COD? that's not going to be easy and would take 5 years or more to build something to compete with COD. If you meant something else disregard.They’ll get what they’re given.
What Sony needs to do is develop the alternative and work out what it’s doing with Destiny 2.

Then they better start now and not in 3 years.Develop an alternative? To COD? that's not going to be easy and would take 5 years or more to build something to compete with COD. If you meant something else disregard.
Felt the same after selling the Series S. My home is now Microsoft-free and free of Gamepass drama.Well I'm fricking glad I got rid of my PS5. I don't have to put up with all this shit from Jimbo now.
I’m keeping my S just because I’ve got Game Pass until 2024 and it pulls much less power compared to my PS5.Felt the same after selling the Series S. My home is now Microsoft-free and free of Gamepass drama.
No next-gen Quake though.
It's 3 years on top of the current deal, so likely until 2028. That's plenty of time for Jimbo to adjust and a very fair offer from Uncle Phil, considering that he also promised feature parity.The 3 year term may be in writing, but its inadequate in Sony's view as a guarantee of future support.
Have you tried xCloud on your phone? I did some trial a few months ago on my iPhone with the Razer Kishi and it’s fine for non-competitive games. I wanted to try 12 minutes and actually finished it on the same day.I’m keeping my S just because I’ve got Game Pass until 2024 and it pulls much less power compared to my PS5.
Still hope the dream comes true and Nintendo allow an xCloud app on their handhelds. I’d get rid of my Xbox same day.
I have and it’s been ok but I’m using an iPhone SE. Need to get something with a bigger screen/Oled screen before I’d contemplate it full time love the look of the backbone;Have you tried xCloud on your phone?

Yeah, I got the Kishi because I’m on a 11 Pro Max which kind of kicks ass for mobile gaming.I have and it’s been ok but I’m issuing an iPhone SE. Need to get something with a bigger screen/Oled screen before I’d contemplate it full time love the look of the backbone;

I just said it to point out how important game it is. It's not just another exclusive. Of course they can buy Xbox to play it, you are right. This is an ethical thing, consumers and Microsoft can do however they see fit.And they can still do that?
That's not true, MS could simply breach the contract, pay a fine and be done with it. Of course they would never do that, but it's possible in theory.Current deal is irrelevant as they have already paid for that, and frankly MS has no say in it.

What if Sony bought Rockstar, would that even it out for you?The fucking LUNACY that is going on in this thread.
Bought some??

It's sad that they can't make them, but can buy them. Shit business practices and they should be blocked, was it Sony, Amazon, Google or fucking Meta, it should be blocked.
That's why I said "of course they'd never do that". It would be a stupid decision.Breaching a no-doubt multi-million dollar standing contract would be an extraordinarily bad move. They'd get sued to hell and back for damages, loss-of-earnings, and with a well-funded conglomerate like Sony they'd risk being tied up in litigation for years, which in turn could have negative impacts on other business dealings as it would show their flagrant bad-faith.
MS have a track record for bullying smaller companies into submission, but taking on Sony would be reckless to say the least. Not saying they couldn't try and nullify the deal in some way, but the potential liability would be so huge that I doubt they'd consider it a worthwhile fight.
Bear in mind MS is wealthy enough to just wait it out. Its not a deal-breaker for them that they have to share the IP for the next few years, its merely an inconvenience. So why expose themselves? Spite isn't a good reason.
