They have a COD bundle with the new systems which looks like it's going to be MSRP game included. This is actually going to be a drop in price because up until the Slim, all bundles have been price increases.
They don't need Game Pass. They'll slowly build out like they have been. "Buys up all the content" is hyperbole. For a host of reasons, given the landscape, but not least of which, is because when M&A happens, talent strikes out on their own. New studios form all the time. Sony is sitting pretty.
They're definitely not complacent, they're still going through their biggest expansion ever - if they were complacent they would simply be resting on their laurels
I think people are looking at some of these things the wrong way. Microsoft knows that there is going to be a future where not everything is determined by the boxes that they sell, and Sony knows that too.
Music to my ears. Playstation's finest years where when they went big on 2nd party partnerships.
That's fair, just a personal opinion.
But you will see some here and just around the web in general dismiss or downplay this...when this has been a thing for PlayStation and platform holders for decades.
Switch done 11.57 Million oct~dec 2021. 18 Million oct~mar for PS5 seems a bit high.
This is always the case, but calls for nuance,or looking at the companies outside of winners and losers is often seen as fanboyism. Two things are clear, nobody is struggling right now and Sony has this gen on lock already as the console sales leader.
Don't these sort of things take alot of time and work behind the scenes?
