Did Xbox lose every advantage it had?

I believe Epic retained the rights to the Gears of War IP though.  After Judgment struggled for sales I think it's a good time for a break for the series.  I wonder if Microsoft will buy the IP and develop a new game or whether Epic will create a new multi-platform title?

Judging from Respawn's twitter reaction to Titanfall being a lifetime exclusive for Xbox One, it doesn't seem they have as much control over their IP as they would like.

Respawn owns the IP, so all the sequels. ea just own the first one . That's the deal.

 

So yes, even if that disapoint some people, Titanfall 2 will be on PS4.
