    1. You mean like they denied that Spider-Man will come to PC? 😂

      It’s obviously not their “say.” It’s about what Sony wants.

    2. “but if the next xbox is a PC we’ll have Spidey in Steam”

      yeah, but that won’t be an Xbox

    3. Once the new consoles come out and the next Xbox has steam support, Sony will have to make a choice…

    4. Sony and Nintendo compete to see who can be the most anti-consumer video game brand in the market.

      Microsoft will soon give Sony no choice.

    5. It was never going to come out for PC, lol. They even deleted it because Sony probably gave them a piece of their minds; you never know what tomorrow will bring. Anyway, this Sony garbage will be available via Steam on the next Xbox, so who cares?

    6. Xbox users can buy it on Steam and play it on the next Xbox

      If I was PlayStation this is all you have to do, there is no reason to port it to Xbox consoles.

      Cut Xbox out of the revenue entirely

    7. NotAChanceBucko on

      That’s fine with me personally. The only exclusive I’ve ever really wanted was ff7 remake , and now we got that . But I also want to see exclusives become a thing of the past

    8. They said not likely. One factor is Disney wanting more money upfront, which they can ask, and I don’t think the Spidey games sold all that well on PC, as they were old by that point, and Nixxes is very busy porting games to PC they now have a 6 month window which they kind of broke with DS2 but getting there.

      As in SP games being ported to this console, very likely for Sony’s own IP and Death Stranding 2.

    9. Absolutely idiotic from a business standpoint. Shareholders should be furious because they’re leaving dollars on the table.

      All any of these studios have to do is create a six month dedicated release on their console of choice and then roll out to the rest because gamer population after six months are a fraction of launch week. It allows them to extend a high velocity sell-through for the majority of the first full year as opposed to having a revenue crash by the third quarter of sales.

      Absolutely stupid. Penny studio who says they’re focused on giving gamers what they want, but aren’t doing this are absolutely full of shit.

    10. “Not likely” is not a no.

      They said “no” in 2018 and 2020 about a PC port and it’s on Steam right now.

      The truth is nobody knows what will happen. If Sony or Disney wants it on Xbox, it will come.

      If not, Xbox Magnus will have it anyway thanks to Steam

      The fact they didn’t outright say no says a lot about how the industry is at the moment..

      I personally believe it will come natively to Xbox When? Only time will tell

    11. Spider-Man was on Xbox once upon a time right? I remember playing it a lot as a kid and I only ever had Super Nintendo, N64, then the original xbox
