Sony Releases “PlayStation PC”

[Plazorn]

Sony’s PlayStation Mobile, has now been cornered by its successor. PlayStation PC is now Sony’s version of Steam, or Epic Games, the newly announced God Of War PC version is going to be available there, also including others like Horizon Zero Dawn, and Uncharted 4. Many more are sure to come. Maybe even a PC version of the Final Fantasy VII Remake? Time will tell…

Uhhh, isn't PlayStation PC just the new label they're using for the publisher name of the PC ports? I haven't seen anything to say they're making a storefront. If this is the case, a source would be handy.

EOF?

 

[KiiWii]

Why, why no “crossbuy”?

 

[Goku1992A]

Sorry I'm confused but isn't PS Now playable on the PC? Also you can remote play on a PC ???

Doesn't make sense to me for them to do this.

If GOW 2018 isn’t on PS NOW, or you don’t own a PS4/5 to remote play from: then there is no other way to play GOW 2018 on PC.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Sorry about that, but after reading more sources, your explanation is correct

Yes I know but wasn't it was Sony fanboys was saying Sony was better than Microsoft "blah blah blah" because of "exclusives" but if they are porting their exclusives to PC what makes them any different ?

I think this is a bad move to be porting to PC.

No it's not a bad move. More people getting to play games is never a bad move. The only people that should care about these moves are companies not consumers.

Well I do agree with you partially but Microsoft got alot of hate because they made their games on PC and Sony fanboys bashed them for it and praised Sony for their "exclusives" keep in mind I have both Playstation and Xbox.

It's good for PC owners to play Uncharted , GOW and etc..etc.. but that's what made Sony who they are their exclusives if you take that away from them then it's no compelling reason to buy Sony anymore if you have a decent gaming PC...

I hope that makes sense.

 

[DarkCoffe64]

I mean, aren't consoles basically sup-bar PCs now, lol?

What fanboys do is irrelevant to me. All I care about is the game itself. Not people trying to defend their purchases to make themselves feel better.


It's not compelling to buy Sony hardware. But you will still buy Sony games.


If Sony wants my money then they should give compelling hardware. An Ideal situation would be beople buying hardware for the hardware and not because of exclusivity of games.


There are still reasons to own a PS5. Games come out first on it if you are impatient. And some games may never come to PC. And PS5 is a good value budget build. People will flock to good value. There will always be budget buyers. While PC is for High End. PS5 is more plug and play then PC, alot more simple to use.

This is exactly what needs to happen now. It's no longer the 90s. Gaming is more accessible now, and Sony should port their titles to the PC. I can't justify buying multiple plastic boxes to swap between em everytime a new game comes out. At least this way, the Playstation console will get the games exclusively first. Yet it still comes out to millions of other gamers.

It'll be money saved for people that buy both.

 

[MushGuy]

Remember when Sega used to port games for PC back in the 90s?

 

[Goku1992A]

People always gives flack to PC because it's too expensive. But if Sony releases games on PC then you no longer have to buy two boxes. The money saved can be used towards a PC for people that buy both.

That's what I did I had bought a gaming laptop with a GTX 3060 6gb so that will cover me for the Series-X (although) the laptop costed twice as much but in the long run I can play all my retro stuff (PS2/Gamecube/Wii U/Wii) off my newer laptop my older gaming laptop (which I do have) was doing the job but the GTA 1050T couldn't run RE8 and Biomutant.

If you can play everything on one device that would be idealistic. Nintendo games will be excluded since I would never see Nintendo moving to PC anytime soon.

Nintendo always comes to PC whether Nintendo likes it or not.

I think you're forgetting about a little something named Mario Teaches Typing

PlayStation releasing more games on PC makes total sense when you consider aspects like PS5's severe supply shortages. Good on them, publishers making their games more accessible is cool. Arguably one of the better things Xbox has been doing last generation.
