fatslob-:O said: PS Now is relatively lukewarm in reception and streaming won't entirely supersede ownership of the dedicated system because it's nearly unfeasible for any company no matter how big they are to subsidize risk of the entire cost of allocating tens of millions of systems for their farms ... (PS Now literally has 'queues' so cloud gaming will hardly break the allure of personal ownership since the user has the even more freedom than before to access their own home console anywhere/anytime they desire with streaming) Explain how exactly are Sony somehow becoming more 'multiplatform' when they still own their cloud gaming platform ? (the only difference between the cloud and a dedicated system is that you're still paying Sony to rent the system for you) Did your previous posts just arise from a hint of envy or insecurity because of the fact that one platform holder is doing a better job at maintaining the appeal of their platforms compared the competitor ? |
You just keep contradicting yourself.
You just said in a post before "How does one escape Sony without buying their home console"
I answered PSNow.
Now you are making excuses to why PSNow will never take off. Umm PSNow is an alternative to owning a PS platform so your previous point is invalid. No difference to MS's strategy with Xbox on PC. You have accepted the fact PSNow exists so you know you don't require a PS platform to play PS games. (If PSNow is available)
This isn't about who makes the money or weather the quality is better, its about weather or not you need the hardware to play the games. Ask Netflix.
As much as you like to defend console gaming, Hardware doesn't make as much money as software so selling 100m+ consoles isn't as good as selling 100m+ software. The bigger the audience the better chance software can sell. That's business.
