          Horizon on PC saw a 250% return on investment for Sony so belated PC ports look likely to be a permanent fixture if that continues

              It'll be interesting to see what numbers Days Gone does and any other title they bring across but thats a healthy enough return.

              I know Sony is known for its exclusives but it still needs extra revenue sources... It's a no brainer really.

                  Eventually,... Yes.

                    I think this will become more common now the box is open, however it’ll never be day and date, you’ll be waiting a gen to play them, or like 5 years. The console business is just worth too much for them to sacrifice the loss of console sales, plus all the associated royalty’s etc etc.

                      I think for those big hitter exclusives you're looking at a 2-3 year wait minimum... I would imagine once the games RRP has dropped a good 70% it's going to be a prime candidate for this.

                        I think in part it's a recognition that there is a difference between the PC market and the console market. There are plenty of console players who would never bother investing in a PC and aren't interested in that experience. The uplift in entry fee is substantial, the boxes are usually bigger, and it's just generally a bit more fiddly too. So the danger of losing a lot of those people's hardware purchases is probably fairly limited.

                        Likewise there are plenty of PC master race die hards who will never lower themselves to a PeasantStation5 or a MehBox X. So you might as well sell them stuff on the platform they will buy it on.

                          It's a bit like what Rockstar does, wait at least a year and then pull in the extra sales and double dippers

                            ...is that a good thing or a bad thing?
                            Do we have the update to let you use internal SD drives yet?

                              Who knows... Though running hotter and the fans kicking in to cool the extra SSD will probably not help it over time, it just depends on how hard the fan has to work to cool it all.

                              Honestly besides noise I doubt it'll be an issue, I was just joking about it's potential to put a few units out of action.
