Since Xbox is going 3rd party....

Do we archive the term Lemming? Don't see Sega and Atari having faction names around here. Seems system wars will be between Cows, Sheep, and Hermits in the future.

I mean, Sony went 3rd party too. Just not to the extent of MS.

Not a bad idea. I always cannot wait for the likes of dabear and Last_Lap to officially announce that they're getting ps5s.

Sony went PC and switch.

System wars has never been more fragmented and pointless

maybe you just need to update your understanding of how the industry works..

the traditional ideal of System Wars is dead..

Xbox is console, PC, cloud, and mobile.. PlayStation is console, PC, cloud, and mobile.. Nintendo is hybrid handheld (with Xbox and PlayStation rumored to be joining that market next-gen).. PC is everything..

to try and keep track of "factions" when games are simply going to be available everywhere is asinine..

EDIT: and why would the factions be cows, PC, and sheep?.. PlayStation is a full 3rd party on PC so if TC really wants to follow this line of logic, System Wars is only for Hermits and Sheep.. 🤷‍♂️

We can certainly retire the term "one system Cows" as sony saps dropped their "PS games will never go to other platforms" narrative when Sony said "f%€k you fanboys were a 3rd party publisher now...obviously sony saps quickly moved goalposts so they could continue to eat Sony's ass...unfortunately they went down the bu bu but extra revenue route..in doing so they endorsed Ms decision to do the same with certain games.

Now its just funny to watch clowns flip flop every which way they can to either shill or criticise xbox.

Being last and having no games has them all emotional n shit 🤣😂

Xbox has been third party for a long time, just like playstation.

@tdkmillsy: Sony isn't releasing big games on competing consoles.. Like it or not, there's a difference from their strategies. Xbox needs Playstation to sell software because Gamepass backfired on them. All it did was condition their fanbase not to purchase software...

They are barely on the Switch. Just mainly via two licenses (MLB, LEGO). That's it. No Uncharted or Last of Us, and any other "PlayStation" games on there (MGS, FF VII, Tomb Raider, Klonoa) are owned by third parties.

Bu..bu..but

i suppose PlayStation consoles aren't enough and Sony needs PC because releasing mostly big-budget "one and done" singleplayer games has backfired on them..

@Sagemode87: Sony released all their big games on Microsoft windows Xbox pc. How does that make you feel? 😢

Microsoft has been conditioning its customers to pay subscription for everything.

It's worked very well for them.

Sony and Microsoft are selling their products on other platforms due to rising costs of production.

Microsoft already had their games on windows and Xbox no where else to go but Sony.

Sony had xbox or PC and chose the lesser of 2 evils and went with pc.

It's Nintendo vs the world.

Poo cow. lol :P

@Sagemode87: Sony is 3rd party, too.

I thought as much. Nintendo doing its own thing and gaming PC is in its own realm of possibilities.

TC’s “concern” has been duly noted. 😅

Stop repeating this in your head to make you feel better. The only ones going third party is Microsoft because their games are too weak to carry gp and console sales. Never forget that.

I think so. Also time for lemmings to leave or switch to hermits

This thread exists because some gamers are clinging to the past. Only Nintendo has exclusive and hasn't gone third party...as yet.

As a hermit, this is beneath me as we have always been the master race and victor of the System War.

But it is fun to watch you squabble over the very distant second place position.

• 80% of PS5 games are on PC.
• Horizon Lego is on Switch (and don't sit there and say Lego pushes around Sony).
• MLB The Show is on Game Pass.

This is only gonna grow, buddy boy.

Just stop. You're as wrong with this one as you're by saying that PoE2 isn't gonna devour D4 alive.

Makes sense to me. Same with cows. Now that Sony is third party we need to focus on sheep and hermits.
