it wasn't exactly that.Atari didn't have a publisher and wasn't keen on doing it themselves cause they feared they could get into finanacial trouble so sony did it and got a timed exclusive |
Who cares that Atari didn't want the liability? Those sweet angels at Sony have done in the past what they're accusing others of doing now, it is no different.
A quick google search even pulls up a quote that contradicts their strategy - “We’re committed to bringing the PlayStation family the biggest and best gaming experiences first,” Mark Hardy, European Product Marketing director at SCEE, says.
Well it appears that their committment, unlike their hypocrisy, only goes so far.
In the end, 'Joe Gamer' not on the Internet forums i.e. the majority doesn't care - they only care about an image perceived that Sony gets games later than Microsoft. Yes it's cock blocking and it sucks but they're following the same strategy that Sony used to get them to the top in the first place.
