Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Never thought I'd see the day. This is quite a valid strategy when both your console and your content are able to stand on their own - something that Microsoft forgot after the XBox 360.
I think it's just a temporary thing. Suits love nothing more than forcing people into their own wallet garden. Sony will notice less people pay for PS+ and then will turn back to exclusives. Maybe it's also only temporary, to hook people on Sony games and then reach again. I'd love to see it a permanent thing though.
... Microsoft has been doing Xbox stuff on PC since the 360 era.
