I never understood MS and Sony's fascination with making exclusive video content for game consoles.

People who buy game consoles want games.
People who just want streaming media have a ton of $99 options for streaming.

True. I think Sony will cut down their plans for TV shows as well since MS is doing it too.

Sony's been making TV shows for years now. Unless you just PS4 exclusive series because they've only announced one.

Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

I think QB was never imagined as a TV Show, more like a live action cutscene. (of sorts). I doubt anything will change there.

Predictable comments as usual.First praise MS vision than praise the change when it was obvious the original vision was bad.Game quality still won't improve as usual.

Hopefully this will disuade Sony from doing a PS4 only original programming and just continue with what they are doing.
