'Fortnite' blocking results in rivals' criticism of Sony
Sony is on fire after discovering that 'Fortnite' players are not able to sync their game account on PlayStation 4 with other platforms. Among all the criticisms, other consoles manufacturers - Microsoft and Nintendo - have already made public their views on the case."If you bought your son an Xbox and I bought his son a PlayStation for them to play 'Fortnite' and you come home and realize that they can not play both ... it does not seem to help the consumers. If it does not help the producers and does not help the consumer, then it does not seem to help the growth of video games, "said Xbox controller Phil Spencer in conversation with GiantBomb.Nintendo, in this case the person responsible for North America, Reggie Fils-Aime, also did not avoid the subject. "In all fairness, there are three points. You have companies like me that have encouraged cross-platform games and allow them. You have a producer and the content holder who want cross-platform games and that's what they do. And then you have the other consoles manufacturers that, by much influence that you have in them, I do not have. And it's a decision that each one of them is making and some are allowing cross-platform matches and not one, "Fils-Aime said.
All this comes after a response from Sony to the controversy that has been seen by many as insufficient, in that it does not allow to devise a position on the subject.
