Sony og Microsoft er, på trods af en række undtagelser, ganske ordentlige overfor hinanden, og undgår for det meste faktisk at nævne hinanden når de udtaler sig offentligt.
Nu har Microsofts Director of Xbox Live Programming, Larry Hryb, også kendt som Major Nelson, dog udtalt sig ganske kritisk om Sony ved PAX Australia-messen.
Hovedsageligt går kritikken på, at Sony i stigende grad har sikret sig eksklusivt indhold fra tredjepartsudviklere.
"They [Sony] just decided to write a lot of cheques from what I understand; we certainly had the options, and we would look at it, but it's like, is that the best way to spend money or should we work on creating maybe an Elite controller?",
"There's no right answer: we look at every single opportunity, and go, 'Is this the best for the community and the best use of our money, or would it be better somewhere else, like working on Xbox One S or something like that?'"
Er du enig? Bør Sony bruge pengene anderledes?
