Sony's PS4 exclusive Horizon: Zero Dawn is coming to PC this year, sources tell Kotaku.

lol this is turning into a thread for the ages, its gonna be as memorable as the ffXIII coming to xbox 360 thread from GAF
It's the natural progression of things. Sony will make more money from it too and be able to fund more games like that. People should be happy about this. If you like it on PlayStation then buy it on PlayStation. No one is taking that away.
"Every now and then I'll check out a thread on resetera, like this one about Horizon coming to PC."
Now I'm really hoping this extends to all PlayStation games. Bloodborne and God of War are the obvious candidates but also more obscure games like The Last Guardian and Gravity Rush 2 would benefit from being on PC. Games coming to PC at launch would be the dream.
I read all of your posts throughout the thread and to be honest I don't understand at all why you are so bummed out by this. If you want to play games on PS5 then nothing has changed for you, in fact higher sales might lead to bigger budgets and increased scope for the games you play. If you want to play games on PC then another great new option has just opened up for you. It seems like a win-win situation for everyone.
Playstation exclusives being available on PC doesn't necessarily mean that the PS platform has lost any value. It is still a turnkey gaming solution suitable for those who want such an experience.
Sony first party games will absolutely utilize the customized memory controller and I/O for SSD in PS5 and if those games eventually come to PC, minimum requirements will differ from 3rd party games.
I suppose there could be lower graphics options but those games will be utilizing customized tech for more complex and dynamic gameplay mechanics and scale of the world so turning down few settings won't help.

Depend on where you live I guess. Where I live, casuals play on mobile and PC.
Maybe you only read the first part. I hate when people say that kind of nonsense.
If you're legit worried about PlayStation because of this, you're a fanboy. You're getting worked up over a product; you're too emotionally invested. Stop being dumb.
"Our brand"
Some of y'all on these forums are just too far gone. Also, who said this by the by. Name and shame, name and shame, name and shame.

options:
Sell Spiderman PS4 to a PC player who bought PS4 only to play spiderman:
- 100% of spiderman's revenue for Sony.
Sell Spiderman on STEAM
- 30% of revenue for Valve
It seems to make more money from the software by giving 30% of the revenue to Valve and not earning 100% of the revenue by selling it on PS4 to a person who will buy PS4 just to play spiderman.
LOL
Push an unreal narrative.
From that twitter thread:
What the fuck. I must've missed this post ITT. Con someone link pls?

Yes because of volume. The amount of PC only gamers who will now buy Spider-Man on PC, is far greater than the PC gamers who will eventually buy a PS4 to play Spider-Man.
You forget sales from PC people who don't want to get PS4. People who will buy Spiderman PS4 on Steam >>> people who buy PS4 just to play Spiderman.
You can google it.
Again, I know but I find stupid the way he says it. I mean what are you implying here? That post is obviously embarrassing as most of this thread is, but you seem to care too much for someone who "has stopped reading that site"
Yeah, fuck that.
Let's frame it in a way that has a positive outcome for them: if this happens it will mean Sony has more money to plough into first party games!
They won't sadly, so look at it as amusement until the acceptance kicks in 😂
This is all some hardcore projection on your part and is frankly disturbing and embarrassing.
Guy checks Era from time to time, sees a hot topic threads goes in and sees a bad post.
The fact that this somehow makes you react like you are is cause enough for you to reconsider your life.
Reacting like this is probably the reason he barely visits Era.
It's nice that the PS5 SSD has allowed people to really hone in on a specific part for the "new-gen will be better than PC" narrative, rather than just nebulous talk of graphics or power. Cute.
Good for him, he can stay in Twitter making caps for their followers. I don't give a fuck.
people are seriously arguing that PC will hold back next gen games. hilarious stuff.
So seem to have a strange fixation with me, want to tell us something?
Clearly do, since you whined about it.
Pathetic 😂
With Sony releasing PC games you get all these benefits:
- Sony make more money and can pool it into making more games.
- Games are still exclusive console wise so it's not like it's going fully multiplat
- The games you buy are more future proof in the long term
- You don't have to buy a new Playstation if you don't need/want one
- If they do it like Xbox then you can get digital versions on both platforms for one price, which is super convenient with cross play/saves
- Multiplayer games get a bigger pool of players which can help support games over the longterm
He and that Shinobi guy stepped down at some point. Don't think Nibel. or whatever his name is, is part of the "staff" anymore either.
I think it's a good thing when both Sony and Microsoft have diverse, unique platforms that justify their own existences with wide slates of exclusive games. I have never been a fan of owning two super-similar consoles with similar prices, both of which have their own idiotic online subscription services, just because they each have one or two games that I might want to play at some point. But if that number is like 10 to 20 exclusives, that's a different story - there's a real reason to invest in a platform at that point. I'm sick to death of paying hundreds of dollars for a console and only using it like one or two times because there aren't enough exclusives for it to be worth turning on.
If both Sony and Microsoft are transitioning to a model where nothing is exclusive anymore, I think it would just be for the best if they stop doing distinct consoles in general and transition toward a general single-console model where you pay one price and have access to both of their slates of games. They can compete on the battleground of software instead of hardware, and it also helps customers because they have access to a wider array of games without being forced to clutter their houses with nearly-identical consoles or build an enthusiast-level PC for $1200 or more.
