As a multiplatform owner it sucks for me, all those multiplatform deals adds nothing for me and is money that could have been used for something else...

If the deal doesn't benefit the company (end result, earn them more money), then they simply wouldn't do it. They aren't burning their money away.

Spencer said TR was to fill the Uncharted-like games void they had.

"Causing MS to respond by getting TR console exclusive for a year" LOL.

Wonder what was causing MS to respond with their 360 timed deals last gen...

It indeed makes one smile

MS had a massive lead and the deals started coming when they slowed down on first party content and when Sony started putting out a massive list of first party, AAA, exclusives.  It's more of the opposite now but 2016 seems okay for Sony in terms of first party.  Taking their sweet time.  

But MS has deals for Fallout and the only console getting The Division multiplayer next month, Dark Souls 3 and many more lined up.  They are also getting parity in graphics for many of the big games. 

Sony is a little late to the DLC party with CoD as those numbers have  been on a massive decline for awhile now.  Though Treyarch is the only CoD developer that is good. 

Just stop already, you've already changed you argument a few time and now you say Sony are taking their time with exclusives? Do a little research, count the XB1 first party exclusives and the PS4 first party exclusives. When you get numbers come back!

For the big AAA exclusives, what consoles are known for.   PC gets way more exclusives than consoles.   Zero flagship games so far.  I'll be getting one for Uncharted.   You are telling me Sony is pumping out first party content as rapidly as they were in the final years of the PS3's life???!! LOL. 

What should I stop?   Change what argument?  I have said nothing but facts about why this is a slippery slope in response to two guys that are happy that Sony is doing this to get back at MS.

You have to be trolling or baiting, you have to be. Nobody can write so much dumb stuff and twist and turn their own arguments this much and actually mean it.

Accusing someone of trolling when they obviously are not is trolling... What am I baiting?  My point was how third party deals are going to get worse and two people replied to me saying they are happy Sony is getting back at MS.  You don't think Sony has slowed down on first party content?  How?  The more third party deals = the fewer first party content.  What is so difficult for you to understand about that?  How am I trolling?

Playstation always has been and will always be the best place for third party games!

Nope last gen the 360 was the best platform for multiplatform games.


Almost all of my third party multi-platform games were better on the PS3 in some form or another.

You just keep moving the goal posts. You started out by saying MS got Tomb Raider exclusivity because of Sony, that argument soon changed. You you started bringing in stuff about PC. Not even sure what that tries to prove. Anyway please provide facts and explain why third party deals slows down first party developement. I would like to know how you link the 2.

I say go for it! With them pumping up the exclusive output and adding this in makes the platform even more appealing!

1. Consoles are known for big AAA games.  The PS4 is lacking in that area right now.
2.  When you bring up the non AAA games and how the PS4 has had a lot I direct you to PC where they outnumber the consoles vastly. Meaning I don't see why that is a pro to you as PC destroys consoles when it comes to games that are not AAA.
3. Ofc I believe MS did the Tomb Raider deal because Sony was getting exclusive content for stuff like Watch Dogs and Black Flag as well as year long DLC for Destiny.  Of course I cannot confirm this but it makes a lot of sense.  Sony is simply going to one up MS when it comes to third party and MS will try to do the same. 

The proof of less first party content is the final two years of PS3 exclusives vs the exclusives of the PS4's life thus far.  Sure it takes time but if sales were reversed I believe Sony would have had a lot more out by now. 
but opinions and stuff.
