This is just wild. PlayStation wanted to end their partnership with Hideo Kojima. So Xbox was like: "Your loss."

This year is really starting to feel like an inverse of 2014 when Xbox ruined their public image with some insane Always Online DRM requirements and PlayStation capitalized on that.

Sony has always been like this. Always. They're somehow still around, because occasionally they do revolutionary shit and release truly halo products.

The casette walkman, CD Players, The Discman (portable personal cd players with super long anti-skip), Vaio Laptops, Minidiscs and the associated players, Playstation 1, 2, 3... a few pretty legendary over-ear headphones.

I used to be a major fan, but there's only so long you can watch someone you like stab themselves in the foot with a rusty nail.
