If Sony was following Microsoft;
1.) Sony would have gone on stage, released it's own Kinect, Follow TV TV TV, and no game sharing in 2013....
2.) Sony would have paywalled demos, betas etc.....behind a PSN sub.
3.) Sony would have been busy talking about power of the cloud to it's installbase because it developed a weaker console....
4.) Sony would have released Crapdown 3, Sea of Leaves and State of Delay instead of Bloodborne, Horizon, Spiderman, UC4, GTS etc....
5.) Sony would have an exec mascot who has a fake smirk/smile, dress in tshirts with a jacket and sneaker and promise great games for 6 years
6.) Sony would have cancelled Dreams, TLG etc......Just like MS did Scalebound.
7.) Sony would have released a new console two years before the new gen at the same price it released it's underpowered console in 2013, so that they could sell it much cheaper than MSRP after a few days....
8.) Sony would offer no VR, they would have no streaming service, they would say VR is still cooking and not viable...
9.) Sony would talk a mean crossplay game whilst having significantly less crossplay games than MS....
10.) Sony would stop releasing numbers and viable milestones and continue the trend of hype absence delivery.....
"1.) Sony would have gone on stage, released it's own Kinect, Follow TV TV TV, and no game sharing in 2013...."
They pushed $2k 3d tvs and ps move but had at best maybe 20-30 games supported either one of those peripherals use it that about as bad as MS going on about TV. Which sony killed off both of those things 2 years later along with the vita in 2016
"2.) Sony would have paywalled demos, betas etc.....behind a PSN sub."
They've done it at the tail end of last gen and pretty much most of this gen in fact buying used 1st party ps3 games came with an additional online tax that you had to pay for that one game. Most of the betas and demos like GG XRD,Blazblue, PSO2 beta for japan, SF5, GT sport, DOA6 both beta test were locked behind the SUB known as ps plus.
"3.) Sony would have been busy talking about power of the cloud to it's installbase because it developed a weaker console...."
PS now says hi.
"4.) Sony would have released Crapdown 3, Sea of Leaves and State of Delay instead of Bloodborne, Horizon, Spiderman, UC4, GTS etc...."
Crackdownd sucked but lets not pretend The order,Knack 1 and 2, Days gone, life of black tiger and may more are steaming hot piles of trash as well. And those games you mentioned are pure downgrades UC4 is worst then UC1-3, GTS is literally the GT5 Prologue all over again with tons of internal problems "lack of tracks, Car classes being way to vague, GR.X classes need to go, Online only game meaning you cant play it offline or save it without going online".
5.) Sony would have an exec mascot who has a fake smirk/smile, dress in tshirts with a jacket and sneaker and promise great games for 6 years
And we had 3 ceos that have done worst Kaz told everyone to get a second job in a down ecconomy for a $599+tax system. Shawn and the commieforina branch has pretty much ruined most of its JP relations with moronic censorship status and pretty much give japan the xbox treamaent. And we have jim who pretty much said who wants to play old games and is pretty much very against BC.
"6.) Sony would have cancelled Dreams, TLG etc......Just like MS did Scalebound."
Na instead they closed down liverpool and evolution and many more studios pretty much cutting there variety in half right there. They censored pretty much every JP game from DMC5 to One piece world seekers had prominent jp devs literally leave there companies or taking a huge financial losses all have been going on since 2018. Killed the vita state side and pretty much refused to do anything about it we didnt even get the localized games we were promised to get. Killed off the ps3 and psp eye toy, psp go, ps vita EU and state side, 3d tv support, ps move support.
"7.) Sony would have released a new console two years before the new gen at the same price it released it's underpowered console in 2013, so that they could sell it much cheaper than MSRP after a few days...."
Released the ps4 pro which is barely better then the standard console with NO BC or 4k blue ray drive when they literally have the content to support it "cough cough 4k anime blue ray sets".
"8.) Sony would offer no VR, they would have no streaming service, they would say VR is still cooking and not viable..."
So a dozen perferifals later and 2 dead handheld consoles later they actually fully support something.
"9.) Sony would talk a mean crossplay game whilst having significantly less crossplay games than MS...."
Still waiting on Sony to add crossplay to there exlusive fighting games they still have GGxrd,Blazblue and many more.
"10.) Sony would stop releasing numbers and viable milestones and continue the trend of hype absence delivery....."
Na they would just put out a vague bulletin talking about the amount of miles driven in GTS Hint hint"You dont even have to own the game to be apart of those numbers"
