I mean am I the only one to notice? They help all these little indie studios because sooner or later they will be big AAA studios and will always remember that Sony gave them their first big break into the industry which means more exclusives for Sony. And if the talent is too good to pass up they can just buy them for cheap before they get too big and expensive. I even heard Sony acquired ND when it was still indie and now they make some of the best games in gaming.

lol

"Sony gave them their first big break into the industry which means more exclusives for Sony. And if the talent is too good to pass up they can just buy them for cheap before they get too big and expensive"

 

what happened to all the studios and games that sony gave a chance with on the PS1? theres not one game that stayed on PS FF, GTA, RE, sielent hill, tomb raider even MGS

 

this indie focus is just that right now were having a indie boom these games are also available on PC and more and more are also coming on XB1

Squaresoft (back then), Capcom, Konami... Those were both developers and publishers during the PS era. Not indie devs. Nice try though.
