Sony? Ghostbusters? That never happened, nope...never.
Though then again, once in a while is more acceptable than a dime a dozen...yay or nay?

The Ghostbusters franchise is owned by Sony. They didn't have to let it go multiplat by licensing it out but they did and its nothing like what microsoft has been doing. But hey if Microsoft want to keep throwing money at 3rd party developers instead of building there own first and second party studios then thats there stupid moves.

The truth of the matter is Sony has no right to call out Microsoft on a strategy that Sony did at every opprotunity in the ps1/2 days........its like someone telling you not to drink when you have multiple videos of them getting hammered in the past and sometimes drink to this day.....its hypocrisy at its finest.

But Sony now, is not Sony 5 years ago. Its also not the same Sony that well have in 5 years. Employees change, time change and companies evolve. Its not hypocrisy as long as they dont do it now. Im not being hypocrit if I suggest to someone to stop smoking even if I was smoking 5 years ago. The fact is that today, I dont smoke, and ive learned that its really bad habit. Sincerely I dont know if they do it or not, but if they do, then yes the company as a whole is being hypocrit. But you cannot base your judgment on a practice they were doing 5 years ago if they dont do it anymore.

Its something they did to become successful , its something that made sony what it is today and to rip on companies who are trying to do the same thing you did to be successful is not only hypocritical but also spiteful.
