So, just to be sure, Sony is still Doomed and Microsoft still have the upper hand right??

 Nah Sony fine. A current PR imbalance is nothing in the grand scheme

It's not like the bird flu. This Chinese flu has taken 80k victims and i wouldn't be surprised if it hits 100k. This is the worse virus in terms of numbers since the Spanish flu.

In Switzerland, all events with more than 1000 attendants have been banned by the gov.

All efforts no matter how small should be done to avoid this almost pandemic situation to get even worse. Sony was right and responsible since the begining.



God bless You.

My Total Sales prediction for PS4 by the end of 2021: 110m+

When PS4 will hit 100m consoles sold: Before Christmas 2019

Now that MS also cancelled can we declare gaming is doomed?

Logic dictates I blame corona now. If one backed out and the other didn’t I could argue one was being overly cautious. But now that’s not the case. 

Considering your argument amounted to a conspiracy theorist viewpoint, I'm gonna go with nah on that.

You're more than willing to adjust the narrative to support what appears like really clear as day bias, but let's be honest, you basically went from Sony is hiding/ having problems to MS is out and a virus is to blame without even acknowledging that maybe Sony was right.

I “adjust” the narrative when new news comes out. That’s kinda the point of adapting to developing stories. If one backed out and the other stayed I am entitled to make a judgement call. Especially when this isn’t the first event Sony skipped out on. Ya got me sheriff, I’m bias.

You’re certainly free to jump to those hasty conclusions of yours, however wrong and skewed they are.

Just don’t expect your comments to ever hold any credibility.

You're back, and as purposely dense as ever. 

And btw when someone recognizes me from my YT days 10 years ago I’m always flattered :)

I don't know what you're talking about...... all I remember is you're someone who's smart enough to make quality posts until he/she comments on SONY-related news, only then your logical thinking is thrown out of the window and you intoxicate the forums with useless back and forth because you keep insisting the earth is flat even if proven otherwise. 

I don't hold against the mods for banning me but at least I don't hide behind an artificial veneer of irrationality, which is the veneer you selectively apply over your SONY-related commentary.

If you are referring to the cross gen thread? Several others are on the same page as me and we’re all generally debating one persistent person.

Attack the argument, not the person. That’s why you were banned.

Well i do respect you for not sticking to your guns,you were very eager to make negative assumptions about sony but atleast you are not stubborn enough to keep with them.
