What's 90% of 100% ... 90%... Its better to make 90% over 0 do the math. If MS makes 1 million Sony makes 9 million... How do you not understand basic math and percentages, do we need to register you again for 6th grade to relearn "mean averages"?

Understand that clearly you don’t understand that they are making their competition money when Microsoft has no money into the game. It’s not a smart move to make a rival money. I’m asking if going on Xbox means more money for PlayStation and if Microsoft doesn’t see Sony as competition then why are they with holding their games from PlayStation. So clearly Sony should be handing all their games over to Microsoft while Microsoft doesn’t do the same. As far as the Bethesda that are exclusive to PlayStation Microsoft has to honor those contracts cause they was in place before they bought them. It’s not like Microsoft is doing it out of the kindness of their hearts they have to do it. 0% is better then getting 90% when Sony is the one fitting the bill for everything.

So back to elementary school for you.

Also Sony corporate is not footing any bill for The Show, San Diego Studios a subsidiary of Sony interactive entertainment, which is not a direct subsidiary of Sony Corporate is footing said bill.

This really is not hard to understand and after 2 years I just dont get how you dont understand this when everyone else on the forums has explained it 17x to you in 3 threads.

Does this mean more money for Sony Interactive Entertainment yes it does about 400 million more in profit per year. Does it get reinvested yes it does which in turn invests in PlayStation. Does MS view Sony as a rival and vice versa yes somewhat but not in Hardware sales 2 separate strategies. MS strategy is in subscriptions Sony is in Hardware and software sales. They are no longer rivals in the old sense you think of it as.

Sony owns San Diego Studios smart guy so yeah it is their money that’s being spent. Only dummies make their competitor money.

You have no idea how corporations work and frankly im tired of beating a dead horse for someone who cannot understand that 1+1 = 2. When you graduate basic math we can continue this conversation.

I only play on Sony, but I guess it’s good for the game of baseball to expand - even via video game.

Yeah I do know how corporations work. But it’s not smart business to give a rival company your product that you are financially backing yourself. If it’s smart business you may as well give them a piece of everything you make.

Dude. Yet again, your weird takes make no sense. San Diego Studios will make more money. Sony will make more money. MLB will make more money. It’s not a loss for anyone.

Minecraft is on every console. MS owns it.

It’s not a AAA title like The Show is Gears of War isn’t on PlayStation.

Minecraft’s sales figures would disagree with you.

Just when I thought my expectations of the nonsense he posts couldn't get any lower he goes and says the best selling game of all time is smaller than a ****ing baseball game.

You cant fix stupid or ignorant. Dunno why we all tried by engaging.

I said it in the old thread. MLB isn't a system seller. It's not made to be a system seller. It's an annual sports game.

Sure, there might be some people who would buy a PS4/5 because it had the Show, but that's like saying someone bought a system for Madden.

Mark my words. This will be the best selling MLB game in a very long time. And since the developers don't make money on the system sales, this is the best thing for the Show.

According to VG chartz, the best selling Show on PS4 is 17, and sold less than a million in NA (1.16 world...which would rank it...138th for PS4 games)...not really what you want to see from a AAA game that should sell systems

Like I said before, this really is a win-win

Really excited to jump back to mlb the show, haven't played this one in 4k yet.

That's a huge deal! Was gonna wait on a sale. Sony must love this. The player base will now be the most...

..and the way sports games are, they make more money on MTX than they do on the game, so might as well just launch on Gamepass.
