Something tells me MS is going to buy up key third party titles exclusivity for next gen

I think it's a very real possibility. A few online retailers have listed Mirrors Edge 2 and Dragon Age 3 (both EA published games) for the X1 but not for the PS4.

There's no way DA3 is Xbone exclusive, it will be on PC guaranteed. MS might buy console exclusivity and EA might accept it since the DA series had disappointing sales on PS3. I'll be a tad miffed if it avoids PS4, but I'll play it on PC if it does.

Mirror's Edge isn't a big enough IP to really be any concern in terms of moneyhatted exclusivity.

I think PC would get nixed before the PS4 version would. They would pull what happened with Alan Wake and get timed exclusivity to consoles if you're right though and then it comes to PC like a year later. You're right about Mirrors Edge though.

Never. DA sold way better on PC than PS3. MS would have to pay EA far too much to remove it from PC. It probably sold better on PC than on 360 even. And there would be major meltdowns from the PC crowd (well the DA fans on PC at least).
