“So are you going to do the Ludicrous Speed route and say "perhaps Sony didn`t say it but their fanbase used it and kept mocking MS"? He have done it whole gen regarding the power gap. Sony didn`t talk about X1 at all or said their console was the strongest ever. They put the specs of the console and that is just it. Fans of Sony used that to say it was stronger and bring on most of the multiplat comparison (as did MS fans on the previous gen), and the mockery only began when MS fans started to bring secret sauce into the conversation.

Could Jim have better communication and could Sony presentation have more information and all dates and consoles and duration of exclusivity? Sure it could. But it usually isn`t like that in console. I didn`t see any out of their way try to hide information or deceive, just that at the time they revealed the console the focus wasn`t the same as in the second show.”

@Don Social media is a thing in 2020. If you admit Sony fans ran with a narrative for months while Sony sat back and did nothing to clarify that’s on them. All it takes is a community manager to send a tweet or a update on a PS centric site. 

Their latest show was deceptive advertising at its finest. We didn’t know Spiderman MM or Horizon FW were cross gen until after the show.  And this is for people like us who stay informed. Regular people, if they even saw or heard about the show second hand, likely won’t get that information. And that’s the point.

Sony been doing smoke and mirrors this whole year. UE demo comes to mind where ironically the closest game we will get that looks like the demo will be Hellblade 2...a Xbox Series X exclusive. Just saying they were not at all transparent when a simple Tweet could have set the record straight.
