Microsoft and Sony Announce Partnership for Gaming and Cloud Services - GS News Update

Eh, smells like Asure desperation to me and Sith Spencer is mighty proud to have the big S bow down to him. MS has the resources to put out the games that they should have from the beginning, should be interesting how this plays out in the oncoming months. If streaming is the future, then I am outta here & will just play the old games from here on end. I would have been more shocked & happy to hear a combo SwitchX Box combo, where the 2 join forces & provide all the games under one store & one online gameplay. The switch screen can be connected to the XDock and we can all play Mario & Halo together. Sony's single player games are coming to XB someday anyways, if not the PC at the very least.

It's a good idea. Sony would not have to invest in their own cloud platform and Microsoft would benefit from Sony's additional creativity and talent. If this leads into more cross-play between both platforms, both would benefit from that as well.

This sounds promising!

The only reason we are getting partially cross play is because otherwise how would Sony stay in the business, Microsoft is rich, but Sony isn't. The only reason why were able to stay here long was because of the success the ps4 had, but sharing just enough for cloud because of google's new competition, is enough... answer me this: "if have a pc, would you even use or buy a console if you had the chance to play their exclusives on pc?" or "would you play games from epic store if they weren't exclusives?"

Looks like this cloud stuff is really coming into the forefront.

If cloud gaming becomes mainstream, I don’t know how I truly feel about that.

I call it, one console to rule them all, the X5.

I know it's petty, but this mispronunciation of azure was weird.

Lol looks like MS won the next Gen! Sony would have never done this unless they had to face a hard truth. I'm not sure what it is but for them to publicly announce this means they needed something MS had and MS didn't have to partner with them. Lord knows Sony and Sony fans throw shade at MS with Every given opportunity. This is a win for the gamers but this comment section sure is thin ?! Where are all the MS haters today?

Expected: Crossplatform gaming;

Reality: You will be able to receive notifications on MS Windows and upload your save files to MS cloud as well.

I bet PS5 or Sony starts offering a service based on this partnership and PS fans shit on Microsoft for "losing"

Is this as “holy sh*t” as it feels or what?

It's hard to tell what this really means right now, but I'm guessing it's the area where Sony have struggled.

It could be groundbreaking for the future or just around platform support, either way it looks good for both parties, and potentially gamers too.

Nice. The beginning of the end, has finally arrived. Was good while it lasted.

So long, "gaming". It was fun.

We can thank Google Stadia for this development

What is Nintendo doing ?...They should hop aboard this cloud train before its too late...
