Which was the bigger culture shock and impossible crossover you would’ve never expected? Sonic on Nintendo or Halo on PlayStation?
Halo on PlayStation, definitely.
Halo on PlayStation was pretty inevitable after Sea of Thieves, Forza, Gears of War, etc went to PlayStation
Halo on PlayStation
Gaylo on GayStation

sonic on nintendo made complete sense at the time, sega was already in its death throes. I remember going to FYE with my dad and they had had stacks of dreamcasts at the entrance on the windows because no one was buying themHalo on playstation isn't as much of a shock right now either considering the circumstances, but if you went back to 2005 and told someone halo would be on playstation they would never have believed you back then. I mean sonic went on nintendo almost immediately after sega ended their console business.
>>724282764Halo on PlayStation. Sonic was only Sega-exclusive for ten years, not counting PC ports and NGPC game.
>>724282764If this was during Halomania (3 and Reach) then I think that would have been massive. But Halo has been irrelevant for over 13 years now. And with Gears and Forza going multiplat, Xbox going off of shelves, and the price hikes, I think everyone already saw it coming.
Sonic on the cover of Nintendo Power was crazy att, but this is almost as back then Halo on anything other than Xbox was unthinkable but look where we are now.
>>724282764Sonic on Nintendo. Because I'm not a zoomer
Sonic. Halo is Gaylo
>>724282764 >still trying to force this as some earth-shaking eventNobody cares about Halo anymore. The developers shot it, killed it, and have been violating its corpse for years.
>>724282764Rare being bought by Microsoft was a bigger unexpected gut-punch than either of these.
Sonic coming to Nintendo takes the cake for me
>>724282764Sonic because even though the Sega problems were obvious, the move was basically unheard of at the time. People have been taking bets on Halo since the Master Chief Collection and barely anyone seems to care about the remake outside of the 'fuck you' factor.
>>724282764Sonic kind of feels at home with Nintendo. Halo on Playstation feels all manners of wrong.
Honestly think Nintendo would do Self Immolation before doing this
I think it's fair to say PS won, in the end>The PS1 beat the N64 and Saturn>The PS2 is the highest-selling console ever>The PS3 turned it around and outsold the Xbox360, when it started behind>The PS4 killed the Xbox One and Wii-U with ease>The PS5 is now the only surviving high-end console in the marketNintendo went with a low-end hybrid handheld strategy...so PlayStation remains the LAST STANDING viable traditional console in the market.Sega, Nintendo, and Xbox all had to change strategies to remain active in gaming....except PlayStation.

>>724282764Sega had hardcore fans, who was the fan of corpobox in the last decade?
>>724285696Give it time Sea of Thieves 2 will probably be on the Switch 2
