I don't know if the leaked RE Village contract is real or tamper-free, but it is a reminder that the lawyers really run the place, don't they?

It also doesn't strike me as that big of a deal. Sony is paying money and the contract is a way of assuring it gets its money's worth. But it obviously feeds into a narrative about Sony's way of doing things, which seems more out of touch recently.

Remember when AC whatever came out early last gen and it was one of a few games to run better on Xbox than PS4 and it also had the Xbox marketing deal. I think that was always a lead-platform thing, but it was likely informed by a similar parity clause.
