Top dollar consoles yet not definitive dates for gsme release. They buggin' with that shit. I'm not waiting till 2018 with a brand new console for shit while it collects dust because of lack of games. Foh. 
E3 2017 | Electronic Entertainment Expo
- Thread starter Gemini
- Start date
That shit makes zero sense especially with the fact that the Xbox one X and PS pro have the power to do 60 frames.
I'm going to have to agree with you... this could have been there shot. If they threw up Star Fox, Kirby and Donkey Kong in either 2017 or 2018 and had more third party support... I'd be all in on this. It is impressive when you think of the graphical power that's being pushed through such a tiny cartridge.
You not missing much here on the show floor.. still mad there no Cyberpunk 2077 myself
I do...switch is hooked up to the XB1 so it automatically gets more burn than the PS4...breath of the wild is an amazing game...best quote I heard re: it "this is the reason why we play video games"
the switch potentially has more space than the other game systems on the market simply cuz of the sd card. a blu-ray can hold up to 50gb but their cards can probably go up to a minimum of 256gb. even though nintendo rarely make their games that huge the potential is there if they needed it instead of all that dlc that takes up hard drive space.
Sony defends decision to block PS4 cross-play with Xbox One and Nintendo Switch
"We've got to be mindful of our responsibility to our install base."
"We've got to be mindful of our responsibility to our install base."
Sony has defended its decision to block cross-play between PS4 and Xbox One after coming under fire from gamers this week.
During its E3 2017 media briefing, Microsoft announced that cross-platform play is coming to Minecraft, one of the biggest games in the world. It means Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, PC, mobile and VR Minecraft players can all play together.
And today, Nintendo announced Rocket League, another of the world's biggest games, is coming to Nintendo Switch, and developer Psyonix confirmed cross-platform play between Xbox One, Switch and Steam.
In both cases, PS4 was absent from the list of consoles available for cross-play. So what's up?
Microsoft previously talked about the possibility of cross-network play, and said the ball was in Sony's court to allow it. And, certainly, going by this tweet from Minecraft spokesperson Aubrey Norris, the desire was there to get PlayStation on board:
Today I put this issue to PlayStation global sales and marketing head Jim Ryan to get an answer. The upshot is Sony's not keen on cross-play, and it doesn't look like it will change its mind any time soon.
The exchange is below.
Minecraft works cross-platform between Switch, Xbox and PC. Today, Rocket League was announced as working cross-platform between Switch, Xbox and PC. Both don't work cross-platform with PlayStation. Now, is this Sony not playing ball? What is actually going on here?
Jim Ryan: It's certainly not a profound philosophical stance we have against this. We've done it in the past. We're always open to conversations with any developer or publisher who wants to talk about it. Unfortunately it's a commercial discussion between ourselves and other stakeholders, and I'm not going to get into the detail of that on this particular instance. And I can see your eyes rolling.
Well, you must see that PlayStation owners are upset. They want to play with Switch owners, PC owners and Xbox One owners for these two big and important games, and they don't have an explanation for why. That's what I'm getting at, really.
Jim Ryan: Yeah. We've got to be mindful of our responsibility to our install base. Minecraft - the demographic playing that, you know as well as I do, it's all ages but it's also very young. We have a contract with the people who go online with us, that we look after them and they are within the PlayStation curated universe. Exposing what in many cases are children to external influences we have no ability to manage or look after, it's something we have to think about very carefully.
It doesn't seem to be a problem for Nintendo, perhaps the most mindful video game company of the protection of children.
Jim Ryan: Yeah, that's true. Everybody has to take their own decisions. We'll do that. Like I say, we have no philosophical stance against cross-play at all.
Is this a done deal? Or are you leaving the door open, perhaps?
Jim Ryan: I don't think anything is ever a done deal. Anybody who is dogmatic in that manner is typically a fool. That said, to my knowledge, there is no live conversation ongoing at the moment.
So there you have it. If you're playing Minecraft or Rocket League or any other game on PS4, don't expect to play with Nintendo Switch or Xbox One owners.
