Not sure about the release date still and we dont know on what countries it will be available first, the problem with Playstation now is that it was only available in a few countries and xbox game pass is available almost anywhere so if Playstation infinite or project spartacus cannot deliver that then they will definitely lose to Gamepass again. Gamepass have already laid a strong basic concept and foundation in this respect, Playstation is definitely going to go extra mile to match up.

Well, they still have a very long way to go when it comes to matching what Xbox has been doing for years. It's not going to be an easy task.

Exactly, let them be sleeping, it will be a surprise too for them, seeing Microsoft's consoles being mostly in-demand, which is it's Xbox series.

Yeah, Microsoft is reaping the joy of their hard work and efforts. It's why they are so good at what they do now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, hard work pays off when you understand exactly what you're doing just as Microsoft exacted extra hard work with direction, that's why they're sound at the moment.

And they got it this time at the head. They're just good when it comes to business, they know how to invest and reap benefits in greater value. The brain behind Bill-gates ad Paul Allen is great, they've driven into video game and have taking centre stage too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sony relaxing because they feel they are untouchable is what almost got them crashing down hard with Microsoft going for their neck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kane99 Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 Lets face it. Every big time company that's making consoles, will eventually do a game pass style thing, where you can get a slew of games at a small cost each month. It makes sense, considering that video games are expensive and this would at least garauntee companies a decent share of money from doing this sort of thing.

I believe that it's mandatory they do it, or face the challenge of having their fans move to their rivals or competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
