The will of the gamers should have been the reason Sony got on board since the beginning.

I dont understand why coli brehs (mainly Sony stans) are so against cross platform play. That shyt would take console wars to the next level.

Can you imagine talking shyt to xbots and telling them to pull up and prove who the real gamers are and who's really just filthy casuals. Take the console wars to the games where they belong.

Next level shyt, but the coli is the only forum on the internet where nikkas dont wanna see this happen.

shyts baffling.

they were for it, but microsoft and nintendo were in a better position at the time. if the wii u were a success like the wii was, or the one was in the 360s position, there would be no unity between those brands

Sony stans on this site have been vocal about not wanting cross platform play.

Unless you're talking about Sony themselves. Sony was never for it either, that is a lie that coli nikkas made up cause Microsoft was directly asked about crossplay last gen and said no. The part that's always left out is that Sony never said they were for it, they just chose not to comment on it when asked. Show me where Sony said they wanted crossplay last gen, I'll wait.

I really dont care about the situation that led up to Nintendo and Microsoft allowing crossplay, when the gamers pushed for it THIS generation Sony were the only ones being difficult. When developers were talking about allowing crossplay they said Sony was the hold up.

I dont work for any of these companies and I dont give a damn about how they felt about it LAST generation, it's been one of the most requested features THIS generation and everyone is on board but sony.

They claim they are "4 the gamers" so they need to stop bullshytting and do it "4 the gamers"

Plenty of games wanted cross play, and the fact that fortnite "mistakenly" left it on and sony was like WTF NO! And they had to turn it off tells you all you need to know.

Literally everyone could be playing with everyone but sony is like :scust:


But they :mjgrin: at working on the cloud together with the comp


:mjlol:



Sony pretty much smothered it out which is super super lame because cross is a big deal for multiplayer games, having a big pool of players to play with>>>>>>>> what console you buying it on.


But I hope going forward microsoft and nintendo really are buddy buddy in that lane and force sony's hand.

Negro shut up.

All the ridicule so called Sony gamers gave Microsoft for developing the cloud. Sony developing blu ray while M$ was developing the cloud tech. Fast foward 5 years later and blu ray damn near irrelevant.


Thank god M$ is run by geniuses that don't read online forums. Investors like me are now eating lovely.

Sony is about to fund R&D on the next Xbox Console...:laff:

But they see the writing on the wall, so this is actually a good move for sony.

Shut ya fraudulent militant ass up.

Sony knew it had a bigger base at the time so of course they were hard up about merging there user base. But now since next gen is a fresh start it only makes sense for them to play nice. Atleast in the beginning

Dude doesn't get that this isn't about the Xbox division but the Azure division expanding their business against Amazon's and Google's cloud technology. This goes far further than the gaming divisions other corporation

Now you're just flat out lying.

Microsoft and Nintendo didnt link up until crossplay was already being talked about heavily in the gaming community.

Developers say Sony is ‘playing favorites’ with PS4 cross-play support

This was a big deal last year, If you dont recall this happening then you weren't paying attention. If the coli is the only place you visit for gaming news then I understand why you didnt hear about it cause this has been the only place on the net where people were downplaying or flat out against crossplay.

We shyt on Microsoft for their blatant exaggeration of how the cloud would affect the games (crackdown physics?) and Xbots propping up the cloud itself instead of answering "where are the games?"

No one was shytting on the concept of the cloud itself. But ya'll know that, you just want to argue about brand names as grown men.

is that article supposed to disprove my claim?

when before the microsoft/nintendo announcement were people demanding for crossplay? it was a cool thing to have, but it wasnt clamored for getting constant articles until then.

Not reading but is it simply that Sony is just going to use Azure? OR are they coming out with an actual platform together? Two very different things.

Sony stans about to commit that. :umad:



That is literally NOT what this is at all. The recent moves from M$ have done nothing but prove that they are probably moving OUT of the hardware space in the next decade or so. This next console is more than likely their last.

Sony has all the industry cache, the library AND the install base. Nintendo has install base and perhaps the most revolutionary system of the gen.
M$ can't compete with that on either front...but where they CAN compete is infrastructure.

This is a move for ALL THREE of the console makers to compete with Google and Amazon. Cloud-based development is going to be the single most important innovation in gaming for the next gen and beyond. This way M$ builds the infrastructure and makes money without having to truly spend any on console development. Sony wins by getting access to cloud-based development on their games and continued console dominance. Nintendo wins by getting a truly top-tier online membership experience and a larger library through Xbox Live.

This ain't Sony vs. M$ no more...this is the gaming industry vs. tech titans.

Literally NO OTHER form of media has grown more in profit and investment than video games.

When Sony started locking down epic accounts for people trying to log onto their accounts on other systems is when the issue came up. This was before the Microsoft Nintendo deal.

They didnt just announce the shyt for no reason, it was a response to the backlash. Like I said, you obviously weren't paying attention.

Look the shyt up, crossplay has been a feature that was constantly requested since 2016 with minecraft. The fortnite debacle is when the issue came to a head and Microsoft announced the partnership with Nintendo while this was happening.
