That's because the PS3 wasn't on the top of its generation. The PS4's doing notably better than the Xbone, so Sony doesn't feel the need to appeal to anyone that doesn't have a PS4. That said, the whole thing with Fortnite where using your account on a PS4 would permanently lock you out of ever using it on another console was bullshit.

adjl 09/26/18 12:38:37 PM #17:	It's nothing to do with family-friendliness. It's purely a matter of the PS4 being successful enough that they don't feel the need to bolster their online populations, and they feel confident saying "just buy a PS4 if you want to play with your friends." Sony has a history of getting arrogant when they're ahead (see: charging $600 for the PS3 at launch); the whole cross-play thing is just another example of that. --- This is my signature.

ParanoidObsessive 09/26/18 12:51:46 PM #18:	I still see this as a loss. I've seen the differences in various communities in some games (most specifically, GTA:O) across multiple consoles and on PC. And I can safely say that I never want to play an online multiplayer game where those communities interact on a regular and unavoidable basis. Even aside from other considerations, hacking tends to be so bad on PC that it makes GTA:O almost unplayable. I don't want a single one of those chucklefucks within 1000 yards of my game. adjl posted... Sony has a history of getting arrogant when they're ahead All the major companies do. Sony's arrogance from the PS2 dominance is what gave us the PS3's weaker showing and allowed the Xbox 360 to become as dominant a console as it did. Microsoft's arrogance from being on top with the 360 is what gave us the clusterfuck of the Xbone. Nintendo's arrogance after the success of the NES and SNES is what basically led to the creation of the PS1 in the first place, when they pissed off Sony. And so on. This isn't even a new thing - Atari's arrogance after the success of the 2600 is a large part of what helped pave the way for the Great Crash of 1983. It seems like an unwritten rule of the game industry that the better you do in any given generation, the worse you'll fuck up in the next. We have yet to see a major company that seems to learn from the mistakes of the past. adjl posted... see: charging $600 for the PS3 at launch To be fair, they lost that battle, but won the war. Sony barely gave a shit whether or not the higher cost would cut into console sales for the PS3. The real goal was forcing Blu-Ray tech into the box to force it into the marketplace, to outpace adoption of the HD-DVD format. They basically wanted to leverage their most successful brand to artificially stimulate their other brand, to bank off the potential future earnings of Blu-Ray for years (or decades) to come (and they were STILL pissed off about losing in the Betamax/VHS fight long before, especially since Betamax was technically the better format). The fact that the PS3 didn't sell as well as the PS2 is immaterial - the real victory is that Blu-Ray won and HD-DVD died. Of course, in the end they kind of got screwed over anyway, as the rise of streaming media and a large segment of the audience being unwilling to give up vanilla DVD at all means they're not selling as many Blu-Rays as they hoped they would... but at the time they saw it as a win. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family <cite>ParanoidObsessive posted [p:909483159] in Sony is fi...

Not true if it comes to having to make extra accounts or if it has anything to do with the childish toxic community on XB and Sony being unable to 'protect' people from abuse and harassment.

At least anyone w/ a PS4. crossplay benefits everyone with absolutely no drawbacks. there should be literally no one that doesn't want to see it happen. I almost never do multiplayer, and there are many like me, so saying it benefits everyone is already pretty hilarious. For those who do, now they'll have to deal with the Xbone community. Which, while most of normal and decent people I'm sure, seems to have an overabundance of trash. How many death threats and swattings have originated from Xbox online players now? PS4 didn't need a larger player base for game, they already have like 80 million players. It's not horrifying that Sony relented to MS's public pressure or anything, this won't make much difference at all ultimately, for PS4 users. But it was hella unnecessary and the amount of whining for this feature has been ridiculous. <cite>streamofthesky posted [p:909512875] in Sony is fi...

Lol, no. The overwhelming majority of awful activity comes from XB+CoD. It would have been best to include crossplay with everyone except XB. Leave the cesspool be. Ok, seriously? Who buys XB for games? WHAT games? Who lets a friend buy XB? If anything this is a pity move by Sony to earn bonus points with the gaming market. If things were flipped this never would happen. <cite>DPsx7 posted [p:909515074] in Sony is fi...

This is from 2012: https://www.engadget.com/2012/05/31/defiance-could-link-up-an-xbox-360-with-a-ps3-but-cant/ "Trion Global Brand Director Alex Rodberg said that while this cross-platform mingling can be done, it's extremely unlikely that such a thing would ever reach live servers: "Microsoft won't let Sony players play against them." A Microsoft spokesperson agreed with that sentiment: "We have a high level of expectation for our game developers to ensure that all Live experiences remain top notch. Because we can't guarantee this level of quality, or control the player experience on other consoles or gaming networks, we currently do not open our network to games that allow this cross-over capability." Now they do the whole "Hey gamers! Look at Sony being a mean company and not cross-playing! Don't they suck?" and it's just a ploy to make Sony share some of its larger user base with Microsoft and if they don't they look like douche bags.

Veedrock- 09/27/18 1:45:15 AM #42:	Call of Duty and sports titles not only sell better on Playstation, they're the best selling titles on Playstation. How oblivious does one need to be to pretend JRPGs define Playstation when it's the dudebro hivemind console of this generation. It's just a CoD or FIFA box to a lot of Playstation users. The pretending that Xbox is all "kiddies" and toxicity while sanctifying Playstation's community is also hilarious. Of course these falsified community reports come from users that admit to not playing multiplayer, but they still somehow know what they're talking about dammit. Again Playstation is the majority console, statistically there's more kids and toxicity on Playstation. Unironically it's two ponies and self-proclaimed upper echelons of society that are being unpleasant and inciting conflict. --- My friends call me Vee.
