Forgetting everything Spencer has said about timed exclusivity, the actions speak for themselves. Timed exclusivity pisses me off whenever anybody does it, but Microsoft makes it more egregious because of either what they've said in the past, or what the property is that they're moneyhatting.
That being said, not trying to lock down extra-long exclusivity for PUBG at this point would be idiocy. You have to see that. Why would you step away from trying to negotiate that kind of deal for your company when you're trying to bring people into your ecosystem and new console? So I can't fault Microsoft for doing it this time.
Still think it's shitty from a consumer point of view though.
