Sony is on a gaming studio acquisition spree. After welcoming Housemarque in its family, the company has announced that it has acquired Dutch studio Nixxes which joins PlayStation Studios group. Nixxes is described as "a company specializing in video game design, development and porting"; and more specifically, it has worked on PC ports and optimizations for titles like the recent Tomb Raider trilogy, Marvel’s Avengers and Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. So with this acquisition, Sony might be planning to expand its PC ports library.

Sony should bring their Hot Shots Golf franchise to the PC, so I can stop emulating Hot Shots Golf: Out of Bounds in a PS3 emulator...

Wonder if this could do with PS now cloud gaming

PS now is a game stream service like Google Stadia, there's always be INPUT delay.

But M$ game pass however offers a better game service tho.

That's why Sony needs to compete

wow, I did not even know about this one

 

[kevin corms]

Makes sense since they are having success porting games to pc so far, I expect many more to come. Oh wait, when sony ports a game its a "remaster".

Gotta love how the PC slowly becomes an exclusivity demolisher.

It makes me happy to know these games will likely be playable forever when they are on pc, consoles don't last forever and I dont always want to use emulators. I would rather a legit version of an older game, like gog offers.

Guess they weren't kidding when they said they wanted to expand to PC (There is NOTHING wrong with PS exclusives coming to PC, nearly all Xbox "exclusives" are on PC too! More people playing the games the better!)

Definitely helps reinforce the argument that PC is best when every game is playable on it. Even the latest Nintendo games can be emulated on PC. I was never one of those PC Master Race people, but it isn't hard to see why they argue what they do.

The anti-aliasing in the PC port of Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is so godawful

Poor small studios they been eaten like sardines by big sharks due to COVID-19

Except. No. There will not always be input delay. Why? Not every title on PS Now is streaming. There are options to download to console.

Secondly, Game Pass being better is certainly subjective. I have both services and PS Now is the better service imo, because of the huge number of titles in comparison. What is it, like 100+ titles Game Pass and 700+ on PS Now?

Least but not least. Sony does not need to compete, although I can see them restructuring/rebranding PS Now to make it more appealing to Game Pass only fans.

Covid is the excuse, but between Trump and even worse Biden... small business didn't stand a chance. All that dark money Biden got was for a reason.

I used to be anti-PCMR until I actual got a somewhat decent gaming PC. You can do so much more on gaming PCs than consoles. So convenient too!
