And these aren't even exclusives, but multiplats that MS turns into an exclusive...for a period of time. Paying millions to give me the first class treatment while punishing the other guys who purchased the wrong console.... as a Xbox gamer I got no complaints and MS has my thanks. |
The bolded is exactly my point. It doesn't benefit you as the value offered by the Xbox doesn't increase in real terms. Microsoft isn't investing in improving their product, they are investing in degrading the other guy's product. That is not a practice that gamers should champion.
Corporate cheerleaders and people who want to see other people punished for "buying the wrong console", on the other hand... yeah.
