If what yall said bared fruit the most popular games on PlayStation would be PlayStation exclusives. That's not the case at all. The most popular games played on PlayStation are games available on other platforms. People playing those games on a console are doing so because that's their preferred way to play.

Any company selling something to consumers wants those consumers making impulsive purchases. The greatest way to do that is make the product widely available day 1 and when the release happens you maximize a wide audience. Once people escape that initial hype cycle it's much easier to wait going forward. The longer they wait the more money it cost you if your business model involves lowering prices over time.

My anticipation is they'll start with smaller games and as it proves itself to be fine the bigger titles will come. The PC isn't a threat to PlayStation at all.
The most played games listed in that article are the most played games on ALL platforms. Not just Sony.

And all of those games are either free to play, or live service type games.

Post a list of most sold games. If at one point Sony's single player games sell more on PC/Mobile that is indeed a threat to Sony and their console business.

You’ve changed the definition of “exclusive” to run away from reality.

That ain’t my fault :yeshrug:
no, you adjusted your argument from "console exclusive" to just "exclusive".

and I said if you want to go with your definition of exclusive, that has been going on since the 80s. I was able to play Pac-Man on the Atari 2600, 5200, and 7200.

So no, you didn't predict that either.

No, you’ve adjusted the meaning of “console exclusive” to “platform exclusive”

Remember when this was thing

Not even that long ago.

Now we’ve broken all the way down to “it might not release on other hardware” :mjcry:

Remember this
This isn't a myth, devs had stated that :what:

Stop it! Cross-gen games are holding the industry back | GamesRadar+

Anyway, stop talking about Playstation this isn't even a Sony thread :dahell:

Huge fukking L for Microsoft, these nikkas just can't get right

shyt is crazy it's like they not even trying to fight....:mindblown: How you have a fresh new console but no hard hitting exclusives?!?!:wtf: Then what was the point of creating this system!!!???

nikkas really thought Halo Infinite was gonna be XSX only????? :mjlol:

Absolutely pathetic.

Trying to make this too much of a PC.

They gonna learn... again.

I'm preordering the PS5 as soon as preorders open.

stop making excuses for Microsoft. I guess every console launch had been anti consumer. It's anti consumer to have games for a new platform? When does anti consumer stops? A few years after launch? I want Halo Infinite for my 360!

What about us?!
Now the shyt is “normal” and “expected” and i’m the one changing defenitions.

nikkas crazy :mjlol:
