So this is still a win-win situation for Playstation and a gamble for MS.

This means that PS is getting all the indies while MS will miss out on some of them because developers will only develop first for Xbox if they plan on releasing the games on PS4 as well while some developers will be put off by this practice.

if MS can bully indies into launching on xbox first i would say that is a win/loose for xbox/playstation.     yeah, i'll still get them eventually but the delay time with indies can be greater than a year in a lot of cases.   that's not a win for playstation or for me.

If they plan on releasing multiplat anyway they could work parallelly on both consoles. Also I think porting from X1 to PS4 is much less work than it was last gen especially for smaller indie games which don't have to be as optimized as more hardware taxing bigger titles.
