Were not talking about last gen, we are talking about this gen. Last Gen the PS3 was in a completely different positiion compared to the PS4. Like i said, why arent Sony coming out saying that they will support it with other platforms too? Why is it just PC? Why are they stalling on the MS crossplay? I thought Sony would be the first to jump out of there chair and be happy as hell. Doesnt seem like it to me. Instead they feed there supporters stupid responses like "we been doing this with PC long ago in a galaxy far far away"

Im not gaming in last gen, i am gaming today, i want to play on a cross platform networks. The ball is in Sonys court and it doesnt seem like they want to give it back. Ill be waiting for there response.. if they ever response to it.

Oh so you're trying to pretend that last gen didn't happen or doesn't count? That's so like you. Didn't you bother to read my post, though? FFXIV ARR can be cross-played between PC, PS3 and PS4. Is that last gen or this gen? So confusing.  Sony has supported cross-play to this day from last gen. Wasn't much of a wait, huh?

As I said before, sony doesn't need to answer a PR stunt since sony asked MS years ago about supporting cross-play between them and pc.  MS finally answered with that stunt of theirs.  MS tried to make it seem like it's their idea. The spinning is not fooling a soul, though.

Why are you still talking about stuff generations ago? Last Gen Nintendo also had the bestselling console, doesn’t mean the WiiU is as well. Things change and in this case, we are waiting on Sony to respond to MS’s NEW claims.

MS isn’t stopping cross-play this gen so let’s see if Sony allow this, not sure why there so quiet on the matter. When it comes to attacking PR tweets, Sony are very good at it. Not sure why this one has been on the low down after a damaged controlled response without giving a yes or no answer.

For the record, FF14 is a last gen game.

How's your reading comprehension?

He added: "The only thing we have to do now is sort of find out where we stand politically with everyone, and then it's full steam ahead to finish the solution that we've already started."

Microsoft has extended an open invitation to "other networks" (Sony), while Sony is "happy to have the conversation" about allowing the service (with Microsoft). It seems like something of a stand-off at this point, with Psyonix looking like a mediator for the two.

How on earth does that translate to your conclusion?
Perhaps MS should put their money where their mouth is and send a team to Japan to discuss and get things going, instead of using it as PR to promote UWP.

Lets see Sony put there money where there mouth is and allow Rocket League cross play since MS has giving the go ahead and Psyonix has found a way to do it.

Erm, they're both saying the exact same thing. Open invitation = happy to have the conversation. Hence it's upto Psyonix to mediate. MS didn't hand sony the XBL access keys, nor is Sony going to simply give MS full PSN access.

There are lots of things to consider, different eulas, moderating online behaviour, etc. It would be quite the PR disaster when XBL and PSN users start swatting eachother or any milder form of online harassment. What about all those user names made to troll the other userbase. We're not exactly dealing with a mature userbase on either side...

The technical side is the easy part, eulas, online policies, all that boring legal mumbo jumbo is the real work. It's easy with PC as you're not subscribed to a paid for walled garden and eulas are all on a game by game basis. Quite different when two walled gardens start to interact.
