    Regardless this is a dumb decision. I guarantee they were raking in free cash from the ports. If this is a move to try to move more hardware, they’re sorely mistaken if they think I’m just gonna go buy a PS5 or even the upcoming PS6 over this

      It wasn’t free cash, since the ports cost money to make … but they are throwing money away, especially with all the money down the hole on Ghost of Yōtei.

        It’s like having a machine where you put a $5 bill in and a $50 bill comes out, but these chucklefucks are going “I dunno, five whole dollars? Seems expensive.”

        Ghost of Yotei would’ve been a day one purchase for me and I am heartbroken.

          Same. I will not, however, be buying a console for it.

          I got my pc for gaming, it even lets me tweak accessibility through various controller types, trainers (for single player games), and input mapping when my hand is acting up, allowing me to enjoy games when I would otherwise be unable to.

          Shame, I would have loved to play it.

      It’s because the next Xbox is basically a PC and they’d rather turn away money than see PlayStation games on an Xbox.
