Microsoft feels frisky after winning August, disses Sony over Fallout 4 user mods

Bethesda revealed this morning that the reason user mods are not in the PlayStation 4 version of Fallout 4 is because Sony is against the practice, and this has Microsoft on the attack

Xbox One has had mods for Fallout 4 since May, and Microsoft has come out this morning to reiterate that feature. The company is on something of an assault against Sony this week. Xbox One outsold PlayStation 4 in the U.S. over the last two months, and Microsoft is emphasizing features that its Xbox One S has that the newly revealed PlayStation 4 Pro does not. And now, in a tweet, the Xbox evangelist Larry “Major Nelson” Hryb is using his social-media presence to remind fans that Microsoft fully supports Bethesda’s modding program. Fallout 4 enables PC and Xbox One players to go to the Bethesda.net website to subscribe to modifications that remotely install into the game. Mods have appeared in PC games for decades, but Fallout 4 is the first time that players have had this option on consoles.
