Yet Dark Souls does so well,

Here’s my review: This game is fucking awesome. I have played 30 hours, and love it. It’s pone of the most beautiful games I’ve ever played, and some of that 30 hours has been spent just wandering around and looking at things. It;s the first game I’ve played where I have seen images of vegetation and vistas that were…

I very much doubt any different personnel wouldn’t matter if it was outselling ps4 3 to 1 instead of the other way around. And Sony is still for the gamers. That’s never included playing with Xbox players

You realize that Sony’s customers are the ones with a PS4, right?

Yeah while Microsoft isn’t exactly wrong, they ooze hypocrisy since it was their policy last gen when 360 was ahead in sales to ignore ps3 and Sony. And it’s beyond obnoxious. The single exception was FF11 being cross play with ps2. Sony, meanwhile, was at the forefront of cross play with pc. All this posturing isn’t…

Ooh now this is an interesting tidbit. So it’s not the quality of the service or the system that truly makes a difference. By your measure the two are equal in that regard. Careful around these parts, those are dangerous words liable to start a massive battle.

This again? How about they allow mouse/keyboard support like they do on PS4 first?

Microsoft ist on board because if people can play with xbox players regardless of which system they have then suddenly having an Xbox sounds quite a lot better since you can play with anyone most of the time. The larger the cross-platform library gets, the better for MS.

Of course Microsoft is all on board. A person deciding which console to buy for multiplayer is far more likely to buy the console their friends are playing on, which statistically is Playstation. Cross Platform play takes that factor out.

The unfortunate thing about them is that they don’t recharge and eat up AA batteries like a motherfucker.

Very true, as the last generation showed when MS was in the lead and didn’t want Sony players playing with Xbox folks. Unfortunately, it’s not likely to change, since only the guy in second place has incentive to make the change.

Of course they are. Why would the best selling console allow one with less then half the sales cross play with it? What would they have to gain? Their whole selling point at this juncture is that they are the ones with the games and the players. Helping Microsofts players find other people to play against by adding…

I agree, everyone wants to jump on the “They don’t wanna play with us” blame game before understanding how business actually runs when it is followed by passionate devotees in our customers. I doubt this has anything with winning or losing, because it will take a LONG way for MS to get to winning in this generation.

As the dominant platform of this cycle, it’s in Sony’s best interest to not have cross platform play. If Microsoft were in Sony’s position, they wouldn’t either. It’s one of the main reasons Microsoft will hammer on as this gets rolled out.

Shields are nice, but not if they engender passivity.

Been doing my part and keeping my resonant bell online to help out wary hunters. My biggest hope is that this event shows From just how much the community cares about this game.

This game if any of the From Software games deserves a sequel. I love the world and it’s lore. And I’d love to see what else is in the world of Bloodborne.

So you think Sony threw money at EPIC to keep Fortnight cross-play of of XBOX??? Dude, think about it. Fortnight is a free to play game. Sony stand to make ZERO dollars from a deal like that. They would only lose money. They do not get a profit of every copy it brings to their platform because there is no sales.

It is…

There is ZERO proof that Sony threw money at Epic for Fortnight. Its a partnership. Epic could have came to them. Your comment screams of bias. Microsoft has PubG at the moment anyways.

Also nowhere in the above article does it say that its exclusive to Sony and that Epic will not reach some deal with Microsoft at…

This wasnt paid off by Sony, Microsoft only allows Cross play if you use there servers and there accounts, Epic isnt backing down on this I am guessing because they already have there own system.
