| Enemy said: It is sad. Phil Spencer seems to lie frequently. His response seemed like damage control because Ryan's statement was purely about software but if you read Phil Spencer's response you could tell he was trying to change attention towards hardware and services. Microsoft's problem is mainly greed. They want to make multiplayer games to boost Xbox Live subscriptions. They want to make service base games games with microtransactions to make more money with less effort (Sea of Thieves). We all know Microsoft wants to go all digital. Greed motivates Microsoft to lazily mimic the success of others instead of creating original ideas or experiences. Forza was supposed to be a GT clone. Tomb Raider timed exclusivity was a temporary band aid against Uncharted. The developers of Ryse stated they took ideas from God of War. Now job listings show Microsoft wants to work on their own Horizon type game. Halo is one of Microsoft's more original IPs but the series hasn't evolved much. There wasn't much of a visual improvement between Halo 4 on the 360 and Halo 5 on the Xbone. The visual improvement between Uncharted 3 and Uncharted 4 was very noticeable. God of War Ascension and God of War PS4 is another example. Sony seems to give there devs more time to improve quality. In comparison Microsoft seemed to rush Halo 5 and Gears 4. Microsoft also has a less diverse library. Halo and Gears are both sci fi shooters and multiplayer focused. Forza is a GT clone. To be fair Microsoft did fund Sunset Overdrive and Quantum Break but they were not the success Microsoft was hoping. In comparison Sony is more diverse. Anyone who says Sony doesn't have multiplayer is full of it. GT Sport, Uncharted, Last of Us and other games have popular multiplayer functionality. Sony has multiplayer but the difference from Microsoft is they have highly popular unique single player experiences you can't find in multiplayer type games. They have racers, shooters, hack n slasher, action adventure, platformers, cinematic butterfly effect type games and an exclusive sport like MLB. Sony is successful |
Agree,there are a lot of truth form your post, but people will not like it or accept it.
Well actually SONY also exist to make money or gain profit but the difference is SONY build their plan for longer terms , and Microsoft for short terms.
