C'mon Sony, do us a solid and just release it on PC already.
- Monkey's Paw wish granted: The PS6 is a dedicated gaming PC that can only play Sony games.
  
  I mean that's kinda what it already is

Why would he get in trouble? Sony only owns 15% of From. And who the hell would fire him? That'd be like firing Kojima. And we see how that turned out for Konami.
- Sony execs: "well we were going to send Kratos after him, but he only said he 'wasn't opposed', so you can send Kratos home."
- Knowing how good companies are at taking decisions, they'd be capable.

I started playing this the other day on a standard PS4 and the frame rate can be really choppy at times. A PC port taking advantage of modern hardware would be amazing. The art direction's already perfect, it just needs to run at a frame rate that doesn't make it difficult to time combat maneuvers.
- With all the exclusives that Sony has ported to PC, it's so mind-boggling that this is the one they've kept on ice. Maybe they feel like a remaster is their ace-in-the-hole for PS6, a la Demon's Souls?
  
  I believe this is exactly what's happening. Why would they just patch this in or release a mid-console cycle remaster when they can release a system-selling remake.

It's bound to happen.
Sony has been breaking into the PC space for a bit now.

This is taking way too long.

Last I heard, there were some issues about who owns the IP and copyrights? I'm not overly familiar, but legal jungle combined with corporate politics may be scary enough to navigate that Miyazaki would rather be careful around making explicit statements
- Oh great. Can't wait for Sony or something to come in and completely ruin the IP with a movie or some shit.
