Ed Fries recently sat down with IGN to discuss Xbox and revealed a lot of interesting details. We covered many of these before but there was one request the co-creator wanted Sony to acquiesce to. He said that Sony should follow Microsoft’s lead and make their online services cross-compatible so that all online gamers could play with each other irrespective of their console of choice. This seems like a tall order and one Sony probably can’t do but nevertheless it’s great that someone so well-regarded in the industry thinks it’s a great idea. We’ll see how this plays out in the future but I also think cross-play is a great idea.
