Never said that and that wasn't the point at all. I commend MS for securing the 1st game, and 3rd party exclusives in general like Ryse and Dead Rising 3. The point I was making was that Sony isn't on that level of 3rd party commitment and MS's effort deserves credit.

Keep your blind faith in MS. No ones advocating it or putting it down but rather talking about Microsoft as a corporation and their practices which ARE detrimental to the industry (which can affect consumers). Once the paid exclusives dry up just like the 360 and MS is expected to have creativity of their own just like the last three years when confronted by the media on a drought of exclusives they'll say... "We're focused on quality over quantity" when really...they mean, "We dont know how to finish the top notch game outside of that which has already been made for us. Microsoft, much like AT&T, Comcast and more are bad examples of what large American mega corporations represent in a capitalist society. Doesn't stop me from getting and Xbox One eventually, but my point stands about Microsoft. My feelings about them and being a gamer are two separate things.

And I am sure you just condem Sony for their controversal practices of securing exclusive content for many multiplats like Destiny 3, Diablo 3, Assassins Creed and Watchdogs. This ain't timed exclusive DLC, this is permanent content exclusivity.

But I suppose it is ok because only PS gamers deserve the best over others....
