That presumption has existed for a long time, regardless of what company is doing the pressuring.
PC multiplatform games are often released to a feat of technical and performance issues, its fair to say they are the last thing on devs mind when making games. Its been like this for nearly a decade.

On consoles maybe. I mean square advertised the current gen versions of tomb raider as definitive as well and they are doing the same thing for sleeping dogs even though it was on PC. |
Yeah but in this case, it's Sony that is suspected of holding back the PC version. Sony, eager to describe their PS4 as a 'supercharged' PC, had a content exclusivity deal with Ubisoft. Watch_Dogs was also bundled with PS3 and PS4 in Europe, and a Watch_Dogs movie is coming out in collaboration with, among other companies, Sony. Sony and Ubisoft are very much in bed.
So there you have it: because of the aforementioned, some people suspect there was pressure from Sony to gimp the PC version. Whether it's true or not, I have no clue. I don't know what happens behind closed doors but you asked if they've ever been accused, yes and that listed above is the reason why.
| S.T.A.G.E. said: Underlined part said MS not Sony. He did say console manufacturers, but that could be just keeping things annonymous. We don't know for sure. But MS has been accused multiple times this gen of trying to hold PS4 games back. Wouldn't doubt they were the culprits with this whole situation that has been going on. |
Like my post said, the other underlined part. The one that says "console makers" are pressuring for gimped PC games. "Are" pressuring meaning present tense. Meaning there's literally no reason for Nintendo to care, as they don't get Ubisoft titles. Meaning 3-1=2. Who are those 2 remaining? Lets see if you can guess.
It's funny you mention the PS4 stuff because really, you look at the amount of games that have released on both platforms and there is yet to be even any parity. Even the games that match resolution, the PS4 boasts better frame rates or textures or "vegatation".
Who knows if this is true or not, but no need to go down with the ship. It's ok to admit your favorite company makes a mistake from time to time. Clearly Ubisoft is getting pressure from Sony on this, otherwise they wouldn't have said it.

"no reason for nintendo to care, as they don't get Ubisoft titles"
Why are you lying?
microsony = microsoft + sony
micorsoft - sony = microsoft
microsoft = pc......
pc + sony = pcsony
pcsony = microsony....
Shocking? Not really....
So Sony pressured for parity on WD against PC but accepted that poor excuse of optimization for their version and being marginally better than X1 version while both looking far worse than Ubisoft ads or infamous? Actually gta5 on ps360 look about the same as WD on Ps4X1
