Playstation and Xbox - Cross-platform? - Oni - 03-19-2016

Sony responded (somewhat positively) to Microsoft’s invitation to let Xbox And PlayStation gamers play together. Cross-platform multiplayer would be extremely awesome. Some games (like GTA V or Warframe) would be vastly improved if multiplayer was cross-platform.

Yeah, this a million times.

I've always wanted some sort of cross-platform playability, and I think some games could really benefit from it. Being able to play a few games with friends who own the opposing system would be cool for those who don't want to/have the ability to shell out money for both, too. Overall, I don't see how companies could lose on having cross-platform in their games. Now I don't know if this is easy or not for the devs to be able to program in, but if the systems are open and someone does it, that would be exciting.

That would be stunning.

It's kinda like if Apple said, "Our new phone will run Windows." xD

Imagine how many good old games will be playable because more people now.

This, if true, could be a great thing. Especially since I can dominate the filthy console peasants who use controllers in FPS games. XD

This is pretty exciting to hear. If this happen this will improve multiplayer tremendously.
