Same. Can’t imagine the logic behind denying a product to a console that outsells yours 2:1. It’s fucking dumb.
Of course they do, games are bloodline of a console and you think M$ gonna give a game made by it to a direct competitor? It's like Apple allow other phone OEMs to use iOS
I think it’s dumb to deny themselves the fuckton of money that PlayStation users would have paid to buy the game, and that I would guarantee you that they didn’t sell even close to enough consoles to make up for it considering it’s a pretty shit game to begin with.
They could have recouped some of their money from it, but no- it’s a flop now.
Most of the "sale" of this game comes from xbox pass and that's enough for M$. Xbox is already being outsold so giving Sony more advantage for a little recoup is stupid strategy.
