Completely agree with you, but MS is doing this for money too, they just think it’s a strategy that works better for them, specially because they are selling least amount of consoles.
Dude, MS has been dumping and killing the value of games so much, the entire industry is shifting to free to play live service. MS single-handedly ruined the past 10y of the games industry with their push to remove physical ownership and move everything to the cloud so they can double dip with Azure and Xbox. Furthermore they are responsible for the introduction of pay to play online and on Xbox you had to pay to play F2P games online until recently. Sony are greedy cunts but MS is not even on the same level of evil, they are pure distilled cancer and thanks to them the 2nd hand industry for game copies is struggling, everyone went live service because full price game sales went to shit thanks to gamepass (which is still not profitable) and now they have orchestrated a coup to kill Ubi so they can buy it the same way they did with Nokia. FWIW, the whole PSN debacle started with the sanctions on Russia.
With huge delay where it should be discounted by release but they treat it like brand new, maybe a mediocre texture enhancment fans could have done better and calling it remasteted, then with the forced useless psn log in…
At least a year after releasing it on console, in an attempt to get players to buy the console for the sequels. I think there’s at least a small chance they might start releasing them sooner but we’ll have to see.
To be fair, it IS more than Sony or Nintendo are doing.
Because their market share is so bad that they can’t make their money back on their own hardware.
Not entirely. Sony has been releasing games to PC.
*with PSN requirements. Don’t confuse money grabs with altruism.

Some. Some games. The very minimum amount of games that are typically not highly requested games.
TLOU2 Remaster really be coming to PC before Bloodborne or Demons Souls Remake.
