Yes. I know that, but it's not some crazy thing. Some of you guys act like this will be some technical wizardry or something.Yeah a PC with very specific hardware, os, and software.There is a reason why we don't have a PS4 emulator running full speed on PC.
It'll be very interesting to see this engine run on PC.
And on PlayStation 5.
PS Blog says the cover ART is subject to change but I don't know if the actual final cover art will say "Only on PlayStation" or not, probably won't IMO
How will the gamers decide between savior Kojima and hell beast EGS???
It'd be bad for everyone but imagine how crazy the internet would go if it was EGS exclusive
Is it really, though? Detroit, Heavy Rain, Journey, PlanetSide 2 and Beyond: Two Souls are all Sony IPs but are on PCThis is big since its a Sony ip. I wonder if we may start to see other Sony games heading over to PC in the future.

They aren't forgetting, they're in denial.
Yuuuuuup. Not surprising in the least although I'm not going to lie, I did have my doubts originally but putting 2+2 together, it was pretty obvious it'd be coming to PC eventually. Hell, the game was originally announced for PC and PS4 and suddenly they aren't talking about the PC version so there was definitely some sort of deal in place.
We can be sure Epic would pay a lot to have this exclusivity + Sony wanted that 88% cutso, will this be published by sony on PC? because sony owns the IP.
maybe EGS exclusivity?
yeah, it was originally announced to be coming to PC and they never explicitly changed that.Yuuuuuup. Not surprising in the least although I'm not going to lie, I did have my doubts originally but putting 2+2 together, it was pretty obvious it'd be coming to PC eventually.
They probably could have but bringing it to PC can be worth millions of dollar to them too. Both in terms of additional sales and Epic Games Store bribes. Keeping things exclusive in the long term means missing out on potential sales. Many of their first party games are already on PC via PS Now.You'd think that after giving Kojima a great engine from a 1st party studio, they'd be able to secure the exclusivity..
In fairness, PS4 is already at a place model ripping and data mining is already available and done. It's not as easy as PC, but it is far from impossible. If there's a year wait in-between, I actually expect the game will be datamined and the models ripped before it hits PC if that's a point of concern.I hope Kojima gets the most out of his friendships until then, because that shit's over once those character models are easily accessible.
I'd think Kojima. Wasn't the game already in development before Sony got involved? It would be weird if Kojima gave up ownership of the ip. Sony owns the engine though so a bit tricky
