I played RE2 almost at the same time as FF7 I believe. both games will always be icons in the gaming industry.

Back on this... so NFTs have to be digital, right? Cuz at a mall here, they had a physical NFT art gallery and I was so confused.
The metadata about the NFT is on the blockchain so that's digital.
The picture, photo or art, is stored outside the blockchain, usually on a cloud server because of file size so the metadata will point to a URL where the image is stored.
Something like this:
Physical NFT art galleries are just displaying the image either in a digital frame or could even be a print but all the info about the NFT itself like who owns it and other attributes are on the blockchain and since a blockchain is basically a ledger that can't be altered by bad actors. You're able to verify ownership of the NFT and no one can change that unless you lose access to your wallet or got phished.
That's why the NFTs that all the famous celebs are buying acts like an ID for some sort of country club because they can verify that they own it and get whatever perks they're entitled to from owning it. Anyone can right click and save the picture but only one person can verify that they own it.
There are even restautants opening up where you can only book a table if you own the restaurants NFT

There's no single benefit of M$ leaving COD off of Playstation consoles. they stand to win the CONTENT war (which is far more important than the console war) by allowing more people to play their IPs. Money is money. COD will stay multiplatform.

Honor all existing agreements = going to make COD that are contractually obligated to make.
Desire to keep COD on Playstation = after the contracts are over, "Though we desired to keep COD on playstation, ultimately we couldn't reach a new agreement. All future COD's will be exclusive to xbox/pc/ gamepass"
At best, Warzone will continue until there are enough gamepass subs to cut it loose.

Why is Starfield exlcusive?
Why not put halo, gears, and forza on Playstation? It's more people playing their IP's afterall.

Starfield isn't a subscription based massive multiplayer online game with a prebuilt fan base in the 100s of millions. It's an RPG.
Halo, doesn't have nearly the fan span of COD nor the customer base to make it make sense. Putting Halo on PS wouldn't increase those numbers nearly enough to justify it not being a console exclusive.
Gears died after 4 and it was ALWAYS a niche game. Trust me I know I used to be the #2 rated player in the world.
Call of Duty is an already established IP (more so on Playstation than anything) that makes financial sense to continue to let it thrive in it's community. Think Minecraft.

Whoa, whoa, whoa! What's that supposed to mean?

That's Warzone. Warzone for PS players, mainline COD to drive gamepass subs. Gamepass subs are more important to MS than COD playstation sales in the long run.

What are the odds we ever see Gamepass on Playstation?
I know its not realistic, but it cant be 0.

Leaving COD off PS could mean a lot of players migrating to Xbox as their first or only console of choice.
That will mean higher console sales, more gamepass subs and more third party titles sold on XB so more revenue from games and DLC which can offset some of the cost of gamepass.
Once they've captured enough market share then...
Same playbook as Office 365
Like I said before though, there's multiple directions they can take this. They will eventually have 32 studios making games under a $15/month sub and just dropped 70 billion in cash so it won't surprise me if games stay on PlayStation because waiting for the effects of buying Activision and Bethesda to kick in is going to take a long time. It will be like turning an oil tanker around.
It can be a mix and blend of the two. Keep some games exclusive and leave some multiplatform but if I had to pick, I would say they're going for the jugular.

That's definitely Microsoft's endgame and I think it's realistic because they're going to own all the 3rd party content,
The Spartacus reveal should just be Sony announcing that Gamepass will now be on PS5, because w/e plans they had for it are most likely going to be trash compared to what Gamepass offers.

I say not likely because it would only function as a streaming service. There won't be native PS versions of MS 1st party games.
Gamepass will be a TV app or firestick type device. It runs on web browsers and mobile already, so a PS app seems unnecessary.

Spartacus value will be from old games. Sony are never doing day 1 releases so its the back catalogue that would add value to the service.
Combine PS+ and PS Now and get more PS1 and PS2 games onto the service.
I can't see Sony making Spider-Man 2 free on a sub and then have to pay Marvel their cut as well.

We’ll see Gamepass on PlayStation the day we see Spider-Man on Xbox.

Gotta have some exclusive IP to make extra money by having the consumer buy your console.
If not MS would've never done the Xbox and just been a game publisher that mainly focused on PC.
MS is not as strict as say Nintendo. Them dudes actually care and are proud about their legacy. Mad territorial.
Or a PC.

I think gamepass will be on PlayStation one day Microsoft doesn’t see PlayStation as competition their competitors are Amazons Luna and googles stadia …didn’t they say something like that?
