A couble of years can you define what this means?. As it seems like your saying it will take 3-5 years for Sony ports going forward when they have been launching their newer games quicker than before. Forbidden West launched in Feb 2022.. Its launching on PC early 24 So that could be Feb or March 24, 2 years after its original release and not long after its expension and the release will be complete including everything and launching the same time the complete edition launches on PS5..

Sony are going to be getting quicker with their releases since most Sony games sell the best within the first year, they dont need to really wait any longer than that to port.

That is exactly where my mind goes.  I think ports will start being faster.  Great time to migrate to PC.  Halo Infinite, last of us, forza, God of War....  and third party and free online and easy upgrades..

I am starting to think most of them company's like Ms and Sony are now doing this since they see consoles are going to go away at some point. and everything is going to be a Store service that you can access on any device. But the thing that cant go away is PC since all them devs are going to have to use something to dev the games on meaning having a local PC port wont be a problem. The Future imo is going to be MS Store, Vs PS Store, vs Nintendo Store, vs Valve, vs epic etc all on the one system just like it is with TV and shit today.

this was impossible in the past since the hardware was so different, but imo the reason why they are going more and more to standardized hardware (Other than Nintendo but they have too with the switch) Is they can make just as much if not more by having their own store on everything with their own exclusive games to that store and selling hardware is going to be a bonus since they lose money on the hardware but in the future they wont so they wont care about pricing their consoles at a loss.
