Good for Sony for making this decision. All gen long, people like to dunk on them for no exclusives and said they are ruining the value of their console.

Now that Sony made this decision, it should help create more console value for them. Then when they launch the handheld at some point they will get the portable player back as well in their ecosystem.

The data is in, people just are not buying enough of Sony's PC games. Time for a strategy shift.

Zero Dawn 4,500,000
God of War 4,200,000
Days Gone 3,400,000
Spiderman  2,700,000
Spiderman 2 10,000,000
Ragnarok 1,200,000
Rift Apart 2,700,000
Forbidden West 8,400,000
Stellar Blade 3,000,000
1,203,000,000

At $30 a sale, which is a low ball, I am coming up with Sony making 1.2 billion from Steam...  not sure why that is consider "not buying."  Seems like some good money to me.  

Edit

Steam takes 30%, which I didnt factor in, given $30 per game is a highly conservative estimate.
