Darn.
Was really hoping my PC would do for playing future Horizon (not Hunters Gathering) and GoW games.
Didn’t need a PS5, but I guess Sony doesn’t want my money anymore.
Too bad.
We have PS4 emulation already, thanks to Bloodborne fans. With enough patience you will be able to play it on pc
I don’t think the upcoming games are coming to PS4.
The Forbidden West DLC was already PS5/PC exclusive.
Went decades without them. Didn’t really play the ones that did become available… No loss as far as I’m concerned.
As someone who played them all voraciously on PS5 then downloaded their repacks once they became available to mod the fuck out of them to give them new life to me, this hurts a lot.
Don’t worry, this is not the first time they’ve done this. They’ll be back.
They released Lego Horizon on Nintendo Switch. Marathon will even come to Xbox.
So you paid for them on PS5 but pirated them on PC? Great job telling Sony you don’t want PC versions.
100%, he already paid for them
Yeah, I unlike the OP don’t like online games. I love story not just randomly shooting at things.
PS makes pretty much all my favorite PC games so that’s unfortunate for me.
The only ones I was remotely interested we’re Demons souls remake (which never came to PC) and Bloodborne remake (which never happened in the first place). For the rest of Sony games I gave most of them a fair shot but none of them made me think “wow, this was a must play”.

Returnal is very good. Otherwise, Meh
I’ve found that most of their games are overpriced and take years to lose their value, as well as being more demanding of hardware then their image quality suggests. Still, a shame to lose a publisher doing AAA single player games that aren’t live service slop.
I bought all of their consoles up to the PS4 but never got the use out of them that I did with my PC.
When they started releasing games on PC they (Sony) started getting money from me again because the games are great. But I guess they didn’t like that! And since I’m not buying a console, because they’re a scam, they won’t be getting my money.
Disappointing, though ultimately a small part of my PC library in the end. Enjoyed Horizon Zero Dawn and loved both parts of The Last of Us. Yet they never did bring over The Last Guardian, Bloodborne, or Bluepoint’s remakes (I played the original Shadow of the Colossus and Demon’s Souls).
Intergalactic is the only upcoming title I’m interested in, and that’s nowhere enough for me to spend on a PS5.
Too many companies try to make it feel like you should be beholden to them because they made one game you like. Nope, it’s the platform (PC) for me. If you’re not making games for it anymore, your loss. I’m gonna find something else to play, not follow you around where you want.
Seems like a bold move with the rising cost of components.
I read somewhere else that one of the suspected reasons for it was actually the rising cost of components. Microsoft and Sony are big companies, and have the swing to be able to acquire hardware way easier than the everyday consumer, so in a case of limited supply causing hardware prices to soar, they will get the parts first.
They don’t need to worry about prioritizing the PC market if the only new gamers around are going console due to affordability or availability.
Being said, I already have a 5, I got it a few years back and I lowkey regret it because as a sony fan all my life… it just had nothing for it. Everything I did on the 5 could have been done on the 4 and I don’t feel like the current releases are (or at this point are ever going to be) worth getting, which was likely a big reason for their push into the PC market in the first place.
With the supply and cost issues, that reason isn’t present anymore.
I was really sad when CTR and Ratchet & Clank stayed on PlayStation. Those were some of the best reboots in ages and I don’t really want to have to keep my PS4 setup just to play those.
My read on this is that they don’t think the price of consumer components is ever going to come down, and that they’re not going to waste resources on something they think is going to become a marginalized platform.
Side note: the AI bubble cannot pop soon enough. Fuck Ai.
Of course they leak that sort of information. They want people to buy PlayStation consoles which is a hard proposition, given the fact that after years on the market these consoles get more expensive instead of receiving price cuts (an outright ridiculous situation). Even more so with PS6 facing delays.
The benefit of controlled leaks is that Sony never made an official announcement. And when two years after a release on PlayStation they make a PC port, they never formally lied.
It won’t last.
Part of this lack of commercial success may be due the delay between console and PC launches
Yeah, no shit. And it’s really not even worth it since most aren’t going to buy a console because of this. It’s just bad business.
Okay, they will sell less games.
Shame to know I won’t be playing any more Sony games.
As much as I have enjoyed all the spider-man titles and Horizon, if I have to buy a ps to play future installments, that’s going to be a no from me
Thanks for sharing the latest news with us :>
