Truly exclusive games are out of the question, of course. There is no way Microsoft is going to given EA enough money to cover revenue lost from not releasing PS4 versions.


They could just buy EA?!?

 

Exclusives aren't out of the question if they're new IP's. Games like FIFA are way out of the question though. I'm not sure why people are surprised, it's a typical M$ move and they've done it before and will do it again. EA aren't stupid, they'd have some form of compensation in the deal. Not to mention if it is timed exclusive for next gen only they really wouldn't lose money because no body owns a ps4! If they could sell %70 of the games and get a massive amount of compensation, they'd come out in front. It is a business after all.Microsoft sells more consoles, they sell the same amount of games (eventually) and get a massive amount of money too?

Stupid move if you, yourself are in fact stupid.

Hold on a moment.  What's with that last line?  Is that a personal insult over a videogame discussion?  Never mind that it doesn't actually make any sense, but was it really called for?

Go ahead, though, and believe that EA is going to invest millions into a new IP and half it's value by making it an exclusive.
