Considering how big multiplayer games are and how fast PC and mobile are growing both in popularity and power, I don't see Sony's strategy lasting that long. Why would you want to get into a machine to play the latest MP game, when most of your friends are going to play elsewhere, and your console doesn't allow you to play with them? Considering how important is this kind of casual market for the Playstation brand now, I really doubt Sony's choices here will last further than this gen. Otherwise, they're going to start losing potential sales to other platforms.

If most of your friends are on PS4 though... then why would you want to get a non-PS4 so you can't play with them?
It works both ways, and as long as Sony have the largest install base they've got more to lose by allowing cross-platform play than they have to gain.

Fair enough, but still, it only works when they have the userbase to force their way, if they don't, they'd get squatted. Which is probably the reason the other two aren't applying similar methodes, to be honest.
