In Response To: Cross-Platform Play Being Held Back by Sony? *OT* (MacGyver10)

: So what do you guys think? Players have been pushing for it for a long time,
: and now with Microsoft saying 'go ahead', it seems developers are
: beginning to be outspoken on true cross-platform play. I think I saw
: Blizzard was even up for it for Overwatch! Do you think we'll see it
: sometime soon (this yea maybe)? Will Destiny 3 be XboxTwo-PS5(-PC?)
: cross-platform, or it will it just be small 'party games' and not your
: major FPS, racing or strategy games?

: - MacGyver10

I doubt competitive games, like Overwatch, will be due to balancing issues between controller and keyboard. However, I think certain games like Destiny could really benefit from it. Also, we shouldn't be surprised the Microsoft is ok with this considering they seem to already be planning on making crossplatform with Windows 10 a thing. I bet as we speak a ton of Sony execs and analysts are crunching the numbers on whether crossplatform will help or hinder their lead, so hopefully they take the risk and change console gaming for the better.
