There's a lot of blame going towards Activision right now about how they're devaluing the Xbox and PC versions of the game while PS4 gets more value per dollar with the exclusive mode, but why is no one blaming Sony? - Colton Nesler 00:37:12 Best Friend Q. - Does the PlayStation community need to re-calibrate their expectations of what a "State of Play" actually is? Mostly indie titles with the rare showing of a AAA game we already know about.
