M$, really? *sigh* Well, of course there are more games to come but perhaps then the console is also cheaper. And I know about a console, thanks for trying to teach me. And then the "paying" argument... Man, I thought we could have a normal discussion... And I also said I have zero interest in Knack, at all. A look at the pre-orders tells me only a few people have any interest in it. |
MS can be lots of things, M$ is only one thing.
I wouldn't expect the console to get a price cut for the first year. They already have a price advantage and demand seems good. Even if the One gets cheaper (see how much more silly that sounds than the Xbone), I think Sony would still leave the PS4 where it is as they can't take as a big a financial hit.
It's not an arguement, M$ paid Capcom and Crytek to make Xbox exclusives, there is no arguement over it. My point is that they employed a similar strategy at the start of the last generation and it means that you aren't going to get a consistent flow of exclusives, since they won't keep buying 3rd party exclusives. They have invested in a few first party studios, mainly 343 and Black Tusk, but it's still not many. 1 bought about 1 new Xbox 360 game over the last year. When I got my Xbox 360, I bought it with 4 games; Gears of War, Lost Odyssey, Mass Effect and Ace Combat 6. Gears continued as an exclusive, but LO got no follow up despite its brilliance and the other 2 stopped being exclusive. That's why them paying for exclusives can be a bad thing, I would prefer they spent the money on new studios, or ideally Halo Wars 2
Knack was a joke...
