The whole Microsoft play on cross platform is the usual dishonest some and mirrors from MS.
My point is Sony allows crossplay between PC and PS4 only while Microsoft allows crossplay between PC, XB1, and PS4. And who can blame them about being worried about security? We all should and can. FFXIV is literally a 3rd party network that hooks directly into PSN. Epic's Paragon uses it's own network as well. The only thing PSN does, and I may be using the wrong terminology here, is make the initial handshake that allows PS4s to connect to said networks.

How is smoke and mirrors? Psyonix literally said they were ready to roll out cross-platform play between every platform as soon as Sony gave them the greenlight. They weren't waiting on big, bad Microsoft. It was Sony who couldn't get their act together. Other developers feel the same way too.

I'm not trying to defend Microsoft or hate on Sony. I'm just saying, if you're going to praise one and dismiss the other, at least do it for the right reasons. Because they're both great and dumb in their own, unique ways.
