PC gamers won't buy a PS5 to play its exclusive games because their PCs are "superior" but they have no issue buying a Switch to play its exclusive games?

Yall this 1080p High Quality mode on PlayStation Portal is just insane.

@AnchormanV2 I'm loving the game personally and I literally had no interest in it prior. They're in for the long haul with Bungie. Bungie has a history of highs and lows with these games and they're also always prepared with a massive roadmap so its gonna be a slow burn for sure.

I don't see then going free to play outright. They want you to pay to play to get some cashflow This isn't going to be the quick burnout like with Concord or Highguard, but Bungie has to do something drastic to change things. Either alienate early adopters or die

My guess at Playstation gameplan >Wait to see if word of mouth and positive reviews can make any traffic >June-ish, Marathon hits PS+ and they monetize the fuck out of it. Summer Game Fest time announcement. >feel out if that worked, if not shutdown announcement by EOY

@JamiesAct At some point you gotta stop the denial. How can you doubt Mark Cerny? The man knows his shit. He's the real MVP at PlayStation.

PlayStation backing off pc ports. 🥲

@GetFitWithJared @SlimyMucous @HiimSteve20 @pushsquare @grok There's inconsistency no doubt. If you check the official PlayStation page that features Wolverine they still kept the verbiage there.

Well, if the rumor about the PlayStation PC store turns out to be a thing I could see day 1 releases there as it keeps players in the PlayStation ecosystem. I guess we'll see but if you check out the tweets announcing the Fall release for Wolverine and then the actual release date, the actual release date tweet dropped the "only on PlayStation 5" verbiage. Those tweets are usually approved before release and I don't know why marketing would drop a line about exclusivity if it's one of their prime selling points

PS5 Players Will Definitely Want to Tune into Xbox's Partner Preview Later This Week. pushsquare.com/news/2026/03/p…

@matt_gerken @Sumtynnaztee1 @oliver_drk You mean the "console" that just so happens to play PC games?

@IAmToastMan @Sumtynnaztee1 @oliver_drk Yeah, that's why they're releasing another one next year.

🚨 NEW: Digital Foundry responds to criticism why they don't cover "Xbox vs PlayStation" comparisons like they used to. They cite several reasons: lack of review codes, time, PS5 Pro is usually the best version, low viewership for Xbox content. (Source: youtu.be/9hf4yx7lK6Q?is…)

@matt_gerken @Sumtynnaztee1 @oliver_drk Productive studios was inevitable. They bought up everyone so I would expect no less. Xbox as a console brand is dead like it or not.

@IAmToastMan @Sumtynnaztee1 @oliver_drk It's an odd situation when something that's dead has more productive studios though. I guess that's what happens when you blindly cheer for something for so long without being critical about it. They have no reason to offer you anything better.

@GetFitWithJared @SlimyMucous @HiimSteve20 @pushsquare @grok The interesting thing is Sony will not commit to day 1 single player on PC because they are in the business of selling PS5 consoles first and foremost. So yeah it wouldn't make sense to stop PC releases but they will not commit to day 1 on PC either. Its fascinating.

@IAmToastMan @SlimyMucous @HiimSteve20 @pushsquare @grok Fair. I was impressed I put together such a well tailored question while holding a baby. @grok can you look at my previous question to you and tailor it to Sony Single Player games

@GetFitWithJared @SlimyMucous @HiimSteve20 @pushsquare @grok To be fair you did ask Grok if it makes sense for PlayStation to "stop publishing games on PC" and I'm just correcting that they aren't stopping entirely.

@IAmToastMan @SlimyMucous @HiimSteve20 @pushsquare @grok Right, I'm not talking about those.

@matt_gerken @Sumtynnaztee1 @oliver_drk People talk about dead things all the time. Doesn't change the fact that they are dead.

@Sumtynnaztee1 @oliver_drk @IAmToastMan If it's dead, why do you keep talking about it?

Bungie's excellent audio design and gunplay, paired with increasingly complicated level design borrowing from over a decade of expertise designing Destiny raids coalesce into something special. Marathon is proof Bungie is still at the top of its game. Our review: gameinformer.com/review/maratho…

If any good comes from these recent closures it's that the GAAS bubble has burst and Sony looks to be back on track for their single player games. They're even stopping mobile games, and of course no more PC ports.

@sameolbusdriver My question exactly. I’m not celebrating ppl losing jobs but all of this shows me Sony is course correcting and putting all efforts and focus on single player content exclusively on PS5/PS6.

Yall really don't see what's happening?

@GetFitWithJared @SlimyMucous @HiimSteve20 @pushsquare @grok No one said PlayStation would drop PC support entirely. Live service will still be there day 1 on PC.

😂 OK PlayStation isn't publishing single player PC games anymore. Except this one. That doesn't make sense dude Hey @grok does it make financial sense for PlayStation to stop publishing on PC? Could they potentially convince enough PC players this late in the generation to buy new hardware? Would shareholders approve of leaving potential revenue on the table, revenue with relatively low production costs compared to a new game that could be used to fund new sequels?

@IAmToastMan @SlimyMucous @HiimSteve20 @pushsquare It's published by PlayStation, not Kojima

@TheEggman64 I think this is all the aftermath of Jim Ryan’s live service gamble. They are realizing how badly they messed up with the pivot and unfortunately all these studios are getting the axe as a result.

My take? Sony bought or founded a bunch of studios a few years ago to try and combat Microsoft buying ABK and ZeniMax. But now Microsoft’s gone whole slate, Sony don’t want the risk/cost of lots of studios and so are consolidating on their core hitmakers.

@GetFitWithJared @SlimyMucous @HiimSteve20 @pushsquare Except that Death Stranding 2 was always coming to PC. The ip has been under Kojimas control for years now hence why everyone should expect even an Xbox port at some point. Sony is not going to publicly announce dropped PC support lol it’s just going to happen

That article was meaningless. His quoted source was referred to as someone that was not allowed to speak on PlayStation's business plans, PlayStation refused to comment and he even left an out by saying plans could change. The next day we were given a release date for Death Stranding 2 on PC.
