The first couple years of a consoles life hinge on exclusives. As the years go by they become less important but the next Xbox will need Halo, Forza, Fable, and new IP as well as bring franchises back like Perfect Dark, Crimson Skies, Mechwarrior, etc. Microsoft also needs to invest in expending their first party developers. Nintendo and Sony have dozens of teams working on exclusives while MS likes to pay for publishing rights and timed exclusives. That's fine and it's worked so far, but will Gears of War be exclusive to the next Xbox? Epic owns it so who knows. Mass Effect went multiplatform and so did Bioshock. If Microsoft wants to stay on top they are going to need more AAA 1st party games pumped out by dedicated AAA 1st party developers. |
im not aruging that they need more exclusives because they do. But its kind of unfair to comapre the number to sony and nintendo since at one point it was only those two and thats probly when sony bought/got most of there compines.
I also think they should keep the paid xbox live just reduce the price back to were it originally was. And they need to sell for less then sony which will probly be through the roof just like this gen lol
