Sony is losing their shit over call of duty and making some real weird claims it's bizarre.
Also should I play through the Mass Effect trilogy? |

Sony spent a lot of money and effort to bring up studios and produce high quality 1st party titles. MS, on the other hand, doesn't have that and their strategy was just to go buy the biggest developers. Take over the development market for the biggest franchises (like Diablo, for example) and then keep them from Sony. This is (and should be) a huge concern, not just for Sony fans, because it's extremely anti-competitive. MS has a habit of approaching competition this way, going all the way back to the 80's. I don't want to get into a pissing match about because people will just say I'm a Sony fanboy but I have never liked MS. Have had to deal them way too much in my career and they've NEVER actually had me, as a customer, in mind. It was all about maximizing profits. |

Mass Effect is amazing, YES YES YES. One of the best experiences in gaming ever. The reason I love the Division so much is from Mass Effects cover shooter system, I really miss it since the 4th game was horrible.

Which sucks for the gamer. I get Sony doing it for the studios they developed, but Microsoft just buying up everyone to keep their content off of Playstation is petty. I will say that both would make so much more money by making games available on all platforms. I just can't see keeping them exclusive so that people buy a console moves the needle enough to justify exclusivity. Again, I don't know so perhaps I am way off on this.

I've been debating on this one. My son (24 years old) says he really enjoys it.

I'd say if you're a Harry Potter fan it's a must have. The world is as detailed and immersive as i've ever seen in a game. So i can only imagine the inner geek-out real fans must experience when they stroll through it.

MS is counting on their existing install base of Windows PC's. Sony doesn't have that embedded base so they have to sell physical machines just to get you into their ecosystem. |

Also they seem perfectly willing to allow the titles on Playstation, Sony just doesn't wanna have to pay them for it. |

Sure, they're willing to give Sony little games here and there, maybe an occasional AAA title. But if they're successful in getting what they want in the Zenimax acquisition, the shit is going to get real because titles like Elder Scrolls 6 (the next in line after Skyrim) are going to be Xbox-only. |
