This is true
I can see why Microsoft is taking this approach
They tried playing nice with the xbox one and are now a laughing stock to the gaming community
Sony has all 4 quadrants of the gaming audience and Microsoft really only has 1. The only way to survive besides xbox being owned by Microsoft is to buy the heavy hitters of the game market

How about making games better than Sony's WORTH playing?!?!:childplease::aicmon:

What it they did already but because of a toxic fanboyism for Sony you'll refuse to find out for yourself and you'll cling to anyone's opinion that says otherwise so you can give the excuse that you yourself didn't need to try it.

I mean, 35 strangers with tekashi 69 hair colors didn't like it so it must be trash!!!

Imagine going into an arcade and then only playing new games if they was on the left side of the room. Any new arcade games on the right side is wack!!!! That's what's happening here :snoop: Sea of thieves says hi

Don't forget Sony bought naughty dog too :hubie:

I don't agree with none of that :dame:
First off, what are these quadrants you're speaking of and how many Jan Michael Vincents are we talking about here?

Let me give you the reality of what's happening here. Microsoft is executing the same plans it's always had. Phil Spencer didn't create gamepass. This was always the eventuality, and the next step will be connected consoles and/or PC's to work like a supercomputer to create gaming experiences not possible without such a setup.

Sony doesn't and won't have that because they are not future proof. If you do a search with my name and Sony future proof you'll find dozens of post going back a decade telling everyone this. Anyways, the kishi controller makes my cellphone act just like a Nintendo switch. So now they got that "quadrant" on lock too. I can play Halo anywhere :takedat:

The first party studios, the resources to make whatever they want, they even have AR/VR ready to roll, and all I'm seeing from Sony is literally what this thread is about.. Sony making acquisitions or exclusivity deals. Have you played Halo infinite BTW?
In terms of genres and audiences PlayStation has a wider pull than Microsoft right now based off the type and variety of games they sell
PlayStation has little big planet, ratchet and clank, and kena so that's kids
Then it has final fantasy 7, Spider-Man, and uncharted so that's teens
Then they have the last of us, demon souls, and god of war so that's adults

xbox only has 3 titles right now that's trying to grab all of that audience at once
Forza, halo and I guess gears.
Since they bought Bethesda that gives access to more of that audience and makes them more excited to get an Xbox because they have no choice

if you can bring up some Xbox only games that hit specific audiences then please bring them up

So Xbox has gamepass which has around 400 games. And while that counts, game over, checkmate/etc. The problem is Sony gamers are ignorant to things not PlayStation. Like you sound LITERALLY crazy saying Xbox only has 3 games. I'll give you a dozen that are more popular little big planet.

One thing first, that Sony list has more than one timed exclusive so you can't even name exclusives when naming exclusives :mjlol:

So Xbox, The big 3 that you mentioned, there is no Sony equivalent. No Killzone for Halo, Forza shyts on GT and you don't have a motorstorm to combat Forza Horizon :francis:
Uncharted is the response to gears. So let's talk about new games.

Sea of thieves is wildly successful, no mention by you or anyone team Sony. But fall guys? Or The PS4 camera meet up, PS3 home remember that? So awesome, sea of thieves years later adding an entire campaign with Disney and pirates of the Caribbean?

(crickets)

New Super Lucky's tale, totally remade into a classic but the original wasn't as good so that'll be the everlasting narrative from Sony stans and they won't recognize it as a Mario contender (but it is)

Grounded, more people play that today than little big planet and returnal combined but the Sony narrative is it's a flop because???? (narratives)

I can literally be here for hours doing this so I'll just have drop a few exclusives from this year alone. No need to mention the Indians Jones, Perfect Darks, Fable, Kojima cloud game, Killer Instinct, Starfield, Wolfenstein 3, Avowed, Elder scrolls 6, Gears 6, Banjo Kazooie, Flight simulator multiplayer additions/etc. nope..

The artful escape
The Ascent
Echo generation
Crossfire X
Exomecha
The medium
The gunk
Sable
Scorn
Shredders
Tunic
The wild at heart
12 minutes
Below
The big con
The last stop
Song of iron
12 minutes

Then obviously there's games they haven't revealed yet that are close but there's tons more we know about that are coming like

Stalker 2
State of decay 3
Redfall
Warhammer 40k
Hellblade 2
Adios
Gears tactics, Age of empires, Halo wars

And you have the audacity to say Sony got Xbox beat in terms of genres? Sony doesn't have most genres covered from FPS to RTS to non sim racing games. They don't have a sea of thieves, knack is wack. And Xbox has VR/AR incoming along with portability via your phone or even a steam deck. You got it all the way twisted :ufdup:

who said their greatest strength was buying studios? Thought it was being one of the more consumer/for the customers companies.

:mjlol: One alleged year of this tactic doesn't erase the decades of being the very opposite. Both in the console space and software space in general.
