Reposted by trap15 ・ A.MarshallTom, Legally Certified Date Simmelier @iiotenki.bsky.social · 22/09/202612 years ago, in the run-up to the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, people were wondering if mobile games were going to kill traditional console ones. But with hindsight, clearly Sony and Microsoft were capable of killing their own platforms, their own legacies without help from anybody else all along. 15611
Reposted by trap15 ・ A.MarshallTom, Legally Certified Date Simmelier @iiotenki.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Perhaps the biggest tragedy with the current state of both PlayStation and Xbox on a cultural level once you get past the bloodbaths—and you shouldn't, to be clear—is just the sheer disinterest they share in maintaining any sense of a cohesive, healthy ecosystem, both internally and externally. 112130
