And with the unrelated rumours of Microsoft potentially leaving the console business and going multiplatform, it begs serious questions.

Do you really want Sony to have a monopoly on console gaming when they can't even respect ownership rights for digital goods?

Tbf I left the console market a decade ago and haven't really felt like going back. Computers do everything I need in the gaming sphere

Without extortionate extra fees either. I recently wanted to crossplay Overcooked on my PC with a couple friends on my PS4. "Buy PSPlus for only $100+ to play this game online!" Yeah, fuck off.

still think its crazy that online match making is a paid service on consoles.

remember when microsoft tried to do the same with PCs?
