They don't need to do anything. Let me repeat it again. The fact that they are not putting their first party games on PS Now is by choice. They consistently sell 10+ million copies of them (half of them at full price). Till they keep doing that, they don't ''need'' to do anything.

And maybe first parties after couple of years. I'd be happy if they do that tbh. It's so expensive otherwise. I guess they would focus more no PS Now going forward. If nothing else, they should combine both PS Plus and Now and jack up total price to like 80 per year or something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hsk_colossus Posted September 30, 2020 Report Share Posted September 30, 2020 Ultimately you get what you pay for. You're happy with lol exclusives of xbox. Personally, I'm not. The best gaming experiences of this gen for me have been Sony and Ninty exclusives and I'm fine with paying for them. Sony doesn't have the capacity nor the appetite to eat losses that come in the initial years of a subscription service and I'm willing to fund their habit of making some of the best games in the business. Ya had fun with Sony for last 2 gen but now it’s time for gamepass and xbox exclusives for next 3 years..not worth spending 5k on new games anymore Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AAA games Why Sony should not is beyond me let Amazon,Google,M$ atleast match those quality of games on their Subscription services before expecting Sony or anyone else to give same quality on Subs Ultimately, its business and companies would do what work for them. Just because Netflix releases all its movies on its subscription service doesn't mean Disney or Warner Brothers would do the same with their tentpole blockbuster movies. I mean, even EA don't release their new AAA games at launch on EA Play. Edited September 30, 2020 by Sach4life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not my fault sony isnt promoting it ,launched 5 year before gamepass and still stuck at a million users while the competition is growing a million each month and here we are shamelessly putting it in the same sentence . Ya go ahead and keep comparing psn and xbl no . Also while you are at it dont forget to compare the consoles sales also . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hsk_colossus Posted September 30, 2020 Report Share Posted September 30, 2020 Lolz you keep talking like you own the company...I look at what offers me the best option, weather it’s Sony or Microsoft.. Sony exclusives are not worth the 5k price anymore.. many people would come to this same conclusion soon...Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hsk_colossus Posted September 30, 2020 Report Share Posted September 30, 2020 Microsoft barely had any First Party in house content for the whole of GamesPass’s tenure (until recent acquisitions) that was my whole point for asking what all games were Day1 on GP Once M$ has enough steam rolling in their engines & have 10-12 AAA high budget titles releasing in a year you’ll obviously see them Jacking up their payment methods in some form or the other they are just making fool to create marketshare right now OuterWorlds was part of that game No company is in it for social service that’s why keep saying to ppl interested in XboxSeriesX atleast let the steam engine rolling first Lols everybody knows that they gonna jack up the prices ... till than gamepass is a pretty good deal.. better than what Sony is offering...Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walker Posted September 30, 2020 Report Share Posted September 30, 2020 (edited) And then Sony would either lower the price of their exclusives OR dilute the experiences with a day one free release on a GP like service.

Dream on ... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk You're correct in part but you're discounting the fact that Sony's first party offerings are top notch for the most part and generally well regarded or at least perceived to be better than what's on offer on the other platform over the years. Like I said before you look at what a company has done in the past, when in the lead and when they're playing second fiddle. In the PS3 days the general perception was the X360 was a better platform with great games and that was mostly correct, but Sony kept plugging away and carried the Ps3 on the strength of their first party ips alone, while MS began to snooze towards the latter half of the gen. It would be easy for Sony to enter the PS4 gen and rest on its laurels but it still kept the FP ip's mostly high quality barring a few. And here's the crux. MS was on the back foot from the start of this gen and yet with all the gains during the 360 days, their FP has been rather lack luster barring a few. The difference in how Sony handled a "loss" is vastly different to how MS handled a "loss". Free is nothing.
