Meh on second son info.
EA deal was based on an estimation that XBO and PS4 would be similar in sells and X360 owns NA where FPS dominates. It was a safe risk to make and ask for $$$ cash to cover the assumed range of PS sales.
That's a risk every company makes with exclusives. Unfortunately EA drank the MS cool-aid and that shit had a bad aftertaste. Now PS4 is dominating world-wide and while Titanfall will surely do well and be profitable, EA realizes they could have made significantly more by making it non-exclusive.
All this will do in the long run is prevent anyone from really wanting to go exclusive, especially on MS hardware. However, if PS4 keeps selling at this near-Wii and PS2 pace while Wii U and XBO stagnate, expect to see 3rd parties overwhelmingly willing to go exclusive on PS4 over the next few years.
This coming holiday will likely seal that fate.
