Man, the amount of bullshit posts around here is starting to hurt my head.

If Sony pays every company for every goddamned game, then they wouldn't be making profits! Not when you consider the number of games that are either semi-exclusives or only shared with Xbox and PC (Because apparently, if the game isn't on Switch, but is available on PC and X1, then that still wouldn't stop the question of whether Sony moneyhatted! Not even "Okami HD" is exception )

We also have those laughable conspiracy theories about Sony paying Capcom for Monster Hunter World. Not that I'm denying that possibility but.. who was the source of this rumor again? The butthurt leaker who claimed it isn't a mainline game? Who said Monster Hunter 5 is in development for Switch, and that World is dumbed-down and westernized?.. Who said Sony was "getting desperate" and paid to specifically keep the game off Switch without telling you development actually began 4 years ago? Is that the reliable source we're supposed to believe?

Did Sony also pay Square Enix to make Dragon Quest Heroes 1&2 run like shit on the Switch?! Haven't you considered the possibility that it could take some time and resources to get a clearly ambitious Monster Hunter game running on a much weaker system? Do you think Capcom could release it simultaneously with PS4/X1 versions without massive compromises? What about the PC version... did Sony also pay Capcom to delay that?

What's more ridiculous is that those whiny haters that keep bitching about double standards can't see that the criticism is primarily directed at Phil Spencer's hypocrisy, and not necessarily the practice of securing exclusive content.

Lol this is a bullshit post.  Number one, no one ever said Sony pays for every godamn game, just for some Capcom games.  Dragon Quest builders is a square Enix games. They are also making project octopath traveller for switch. Sony paid for an ambitious monster hunter, since Capcom itself doesn't have AAA funds. Look at the production quality of Street fighter V and MvCi. Street fighter V presentation is better because Sony funded the game, and MvCi looks cheap as hell because it was Capcom themselves. 

phil condones exclusive content locked for a single console, I don't know why people keep twisting that into condoning timed exclusives. It's like some of you guys haven't even read the tweet.

MH world is still available for Xbox One and PC because Sony knows that the game being on those consoles will affect the PS4 version not a single bit cause they don't have big mh fan base,so they didn't need to pay extra to remove it from there. Only the Nintendo version will deduct sales, wether it be 3DS, switch, or even Wii U, cause in Japan Wii U was ahead of PS4 in sales for a long time. They only paid enough to get it off Nintendo consoles.

So Sony paid for the development of the game (MHW) but should let Nintendo benefit from the expenditure they made? And for some odd reason they already allowed X1 and PC to benefit from it?

Funny reading some of these posts. As if Sony has never done this same shit. lol

Because the critic is to Phill not MS. Funny is reading your post and the ones defending Phill.
