In reply to Old Skool. How can "manipulating matchmaking" be possible when you need skill above all else to win?

In reply to Mr Xrat.

The last of Us, Game changing advantage Microtransaction’s.
Uncharted 4 Microtransaction’s etc etc.

So what next ? Ah yes a new way of sneaking in more charges, let’s charge £10 MORE for PS+ than Xbox Live in the UK and Europe and give NOTHING back.

“With Kodera controlling the PlayStation division, Sony hopes there will be appropriate exploration and decisions taken in the future when it comes to microtransactions, seeing as how first-party games right now don’t offer much in the way of in-game purchases compared to titles from third-party publishers.”

looks like kodera will make micro-transactions part of every sony game from now on… this sucks for gamers.

Xgimps will be salivating at the thought of finally having something to spend money on at the cost of being an industry cancer.

Hopefully this goes nowhere and Sony “exploring the possibilities” ends there and Xgimps pretend to act shocked that they remain the lepers of this hobby.

You pathetic fanboys can argue amongst each other over who’s console company is more loyal to their fans but fact of the matter is NO platform will be safe from this disgusting uprise of Microtransactions, and manipulating matchmaking to further micro revenue invading our favorite games regardless the platform.

This is very troubling and it could be stopped if every gamer put their foot down and wallet away but instead you guys want to waste energy on whos plastic is better while the true villians destroy the quality of the gaming industry.
