they need the money to make more spiderman movies that no one will watch

[insertaghere]

I guess this means that planetside 2 might come to xbox one now.

It's funny the fanboys on this channel flip flop Before: ps4 fanboy "you xbots don't get h1z1". Now: "congratulations you xboners get h1z1 more trash for the lunchbox" you guys love riding your companies don't you?

[SeanFerrol]

Massive potential loss for Sony. SOE would make a killing on current gen that the last generation of consoles just wasn't ready for yet. The potential is definitely there.

[mikedude]

I doubt that many people were buying Playstations just for this company MMOs so it wont be that big of a deal as far as sales go

[JohnhTheGreat]

While sony is dying Microsoft is getting richer and richer
so you Sony ponies can say ps4 won all you want because Microsofts share prices are going up and windows 10 looks amazing so yeah

[PizzaCatSamurai]

What's gonna happen with the game accounts? Migrate, merge, splice??

[eltipobuho]

I hope those Columbus dudes fix the DCUO logging system: 30 minutes for free players to play and 15 for pay-to-play ones.

[Suburbanmonsterez]

Let's hope they don't scrap the free to play models.

I mean wow, Sony now doesn't have any means of bringing in people through exclusive games. It's a hardware battle now

[BLVDKillz]

Wasn't planetside on 360? Iv played the demo b4...

[haseo]

I love those tears you Sony Pony Queers. +34 tears collected and counting.

[jalenbryant]

So does this mean no more PS4 exclusives?

[andyminiman]

Well if that creates the possibility of games coming to the X1 I'm happy.

[CRAZY]

Sony will open a patreon account and the ponies will lovingly give $$$. Lol. It has begun, the end is near.

[maniaczotv]

There goes sony blowing more fuccing exclusives....

[MarcoSergevZ]

The ponies have been released from the stables are in outrage. Their salty tears are delicious :P 

[Anonymous-xx]

Not that many people play MMO's on consoles as far as I know.

[moltisanti]

I don't see this as bad. If they're smart they would invest the money that they had to put in SOE into their major products.

[imtimmy]

There is a huge amount of miscommunication in the comments on what will be leaving SCE (Sony Computer Entertainment)!
