Pay Disney to make Indiana Jones exclusive yet turn around & make other exclusives multi-plat?
Stop and cancel a Starfield PS5 version yet port a smaller game like Hi Fi Rush to PS5?
I’m not saying these rumors are false but everything just seems odd…
Probably timed exclusive for like a year or two. I’m fully expecting everything to come to ps now at some point . Once it’s officially confirmed with hi fi I’m probably just gonna cancel gamepass and just wait for things to come to ps at some point. Maybe I’ll turn it on again for a major game like hellblade for example. I don’t like the direction Xbox has been taking but it is what it is. Still love the console
So help me out. Unless you’ve been under a rock, you know Playstation is also porting its exclusives to PC. And they are trying to make GaaS work for them. And I believe they’ve talked about mobile to some degree. They’ve also talked about their own cloud push coming eventually.
Doesn’t it all seem a little too familiar? Like Xbox from 5+ years ago?
Edit: Oh, and there was that leaked slide where they said their own business is outdated compared to Xbox? Doesn’t it seem just a tiny bit like they are headed down a very similar path?
I believe they stopped Redfall development for PS5 too. Also Nick said Blade is exclusive, even though they didn’t say it themselves yet, but I believe Nick when he says these things.
It’s extremely odd, especially with how ABK succeeded. Sure, the decline in hardware sales especially in Europe isn’t great, but I did not see this coming. I guess we can keep saying “if it’s true” but with the sources we got now, I think it’s true.
I hope that post by the person RE is true, that hardware isn’t going anywhere, and at the end of the day that is ALL that matters for me.
They are looking to change the whole landscape, its a masterstroke, its akin to saying we are the only player that matters and this is what we are doing. Console sales mean nothing going forward. They will scoop the new recruits with ease, showcasing flexibilty like no one before.
Don’t link the over a year old classification on the Autralia rating board, that site is never accurate. They have had Redfall coming to sd cards, usb, ps4, mobile etc. for a year+
If I was Xbox and knowing this isn’t true, the announcement post for DD should be read like, “Join us to take a sneak peak at next lineup for first party titles, where you can only get them on Xbox platform.” Kill two birds with one stone.
Does Xbox have a history of directly addressing rumors like this? I don’t believe Sony and Nintendo talk about rumors, but Xbox is more commutative so idk.
