The thing is that PS and PC are totally different markets. No PC gamer will buy a PS5 for a random SP game apart from GTA VI maybe. Sony is simply saying no to an easy money because having a PC version as an option will only mean additional sales. Let them test the waters before upcoming XBOX and see what kind of profit they could’ve made.

I have a feeling next gen "consoles" going to be disaster, maybe save for next Switch as its going to be the only true "console" left.

With the next Generation rumoured to be 1200-1600USD i will certainly not buy a Console for the 2-3 truly great exclusive games per Generation.

I don't even get what the business strategy here is. Even if PS6 is "only" $1000, sales will be minimal. They are going to sell some, sure, but how many? Like maybe 5M a year or so? Where is the point in developing AAA-exclusives for such a small install base? There simply cannot be any PS6 exclusives for the first few years after launch because they could never even recover the costs. PS5 was already struggling with exclusives, PS6 will be even worse.
Which makes a new console even more pointless. So anybody who owns a PS5 (Pro) will get all Sony 1st-party games for the forseeable future as well.
No PC is a bummer, but buying a PS6 will only be for those who actually want to play on the latest hardware.

There are no real rumors on prices. PS6 is not going to cost 1000$. With Assa Shawarma as head of Microsoft, probably even the Xbox Whatever won't be 1000$. They will be subsidized.

That's nonsense, and it has been proven nonsense. People had PCs and bought PS4s. They didn't buy Xboxes because the games were shit and most came to PC anyway. Later, people had PCs and bought PS5s. Whereas, if you look at sales of Sony games on PC, most are a blimp on sales charts compared to PS5, and those are certainly not "easy money". Hard to justify a 1-2 year old game coming in at 60-70$, when PS5 version is already on sale and you own a PS5, which was the majority of cases anyway.

You might not buy a PS5, but a very large part pf PC gamers, especially those that buy expensive games, do.

That's because they have had almost no good single player games this generation. Sony mismanaged their games, commissioned studios to work on retarded gay as a service failures, and each single player "experience" took them 4-6 years to finish. Most of their PS5 "hits" are upgraded PS4 games or rebootmade PS3 games.

Would you pay 70$ for it, one or two years after the console version?

This might push developers that aren't directly under sony's grip to slip off to publish their games everywhere like we've seen with Stellar blade devs.

Either way I don't think this decision will be a permanent one, Sony's been flip flopping with PC releases since forever and leaving money on the table like this IN THIS ECONOMY? Good luck Laughing

I don't know if its the best comprasion, but I guess most of us remember M$ tried to push in early 360s area its service and some of it's exclusive games and "pulled back" in a matter similar to Sony cuz it failed early on, even more so than Sony, now basically every xBoney game coming to PC.

Different is, PC is still somewhat M$ "platform" to some extent while Sony as its own, sole console to push.
