>Negotiations with Microsoft began last year and were handled directly by Sony’s senior management in Tokyo, largely without the involvement of the PlayStation unit, according to people familiar with the matter. Staff at the gaming division were caught off-guard by the news. Managers had to calm workers and assure them that plans for the company’s next-generation console weren’t affected, said the people, asking not to be identified discussing private matters.
Based Japanese ceo showing those commieforniafags who's in charge.
Why is this a bad thing? Aren't leaders suppose to do the decisions? That's like whining why Trump suddenly signed the ban Huawei deal, without informing every single US citizen.

>Aren't leaders suppose to do the decisions? This is true. Itr's generally bad form to not inform employees of decisions that might affect them and their work however. Even if it does lead to amusing situations occasionally, like the time Sony tried to start a lawsuit against itself.
Asher Ross
How is this bad, again? Why are we supposed to be angry?
Jayden Stewart
>tfw we're heading into a dark future where microsoft and sony work together to ensure that every single game is streamed and consumers aren't allowed to own anything
Based Nintendo not having the network infrastructure to stream games even if they wanted to
Nathan Martinez
I agree. But do we really know who's the "playstation staff" that's surprised by the news? I doubt the higher ups of the playstation division don't know jack shit about it? Like Mark Cerny for example. If that's the case, that would be bloody terrible. If it's the peons who "surprised" by this. Sorry, but I don't really see an issue here.
Levi Lewis
lack the details. pretty much nonsense.
Anthony Harris
I don't think anyone has the infrastructure to support game streaming on the scale they expect to.

>Managers had to calm workers lol Just imagine those SJW libtards working at PlayStation California hq LITERALLY SHKAKING AT at the idea of losing their jobs.
The fact that they had to "calm workers" down is already cringe. Like who the fuck are these people are. Do these people really think that the company has a literal horizontal hierarchy structure where EVERYONE has a voice in EVERYTHING? Fucking hell, libtards are retarded. Just how out of touch these people are actually.
Jason Martin
I will pirate streamed games.
Ayden Murphy
this but unironically. let's cut the middlemen, those companies aren't worth it anymore.
Parker Allen
Good, hope the PlayStation division dies next gen.
Alexander White
It's obvious that they announced the deal very early and before anything was actually done to prevent leaks and speculation

cuckCloud will choke first then the Cucklett will be a massive failure.
