Thats Bullsh*t lol.

Its because they are the lead platform, and they know friends buy consoles to play with other friends.
If most people are getting a PS4.... not supporting crossplay, is incentive for others that get a new system to also get a PS4.

Real reason? it's better (for them) if they dont, they sell more PS4s that way.

This reminds me of the no mods of external assets with Fallout 4 and Skyrim.

That was a cost thingy.... apparently badly made (coded) mods broke quite a few Xbox360 and PS3's.

It was just work for little payoff, and a added cost of more break downs.

Such a selfish attitude.

I thought the exclusives were a good enough reason to keep people away from buying the competition...



 

 

We reap what we sow

and both ms and nintendo will do the same if they were in the top
and sony will beg them for cross playing
history always repeats itself

But it works.... MS would have done the same if the shoe was on the other foot.

Yep. Its just how bussiness is done.

MS isnt some good guy looking out for the little guy.

If they where on top they would be doing the same.



This is totally a statement I would expect to becoming from Nintendo, not Sony lol.



Are we sure this isn't Sebastian Kramer?

Exclsuives + ecosystems. If a bunch of people are playing on something, chances are, other people will want in on the action. There's no way a market leader would give that up if when they're trying to swell their userbase even more. Especially Sony, whose PS brand is one of their more profitable divisions right now.



Because they don't need it, that's all.Expect a lot of crying babies in this thread. If you want good online, play on ps4, it's simple
