Some exclusives have been timed, but lets not pretend every Xbox exclusive comes to Playstation. Your examples are like 7 years old.


Dude, during the 360's launch MS kept quite a few games from Sony for a year or more past Sonys launch, which is why everyone said Sony had "no games". Even I was chanting it when I was here in 2008 joining in on the whole wii60 party for the price of a PS3 deal. MS always pays a boatload to get the edge of perception on Sony and manipulate the audiences into believing they have a product when its really only for a limited time. I mean even I got it after the halfway point of last gen, but it seems to be taking people three gens to notice Microsofts obvious pattern.

You will say my examples are seven years old and I wll say "exactly". Why? There is no greater teacher than the past. Microsoft is the most predictable company of the big three.

I repeat... Some exclusives have been timed, but lets not pretend every Xbox exclusive comes to Playstation. Your examples are like 7 years old.

If you somebody bought a Xbox because they thought a game was going to stay exclusive on that platform forever... too bad. That's not a valid complaint in my eyes.

Maybe these patterns will repeat, who cares? It just doesn't matter. This is useless thing to get worked up about.

I know that not every Xbox exclusive that Microsoft pays to keep away from Playstation comes to Playstation. Quite frankly it doesnt matter with Sony's output. Even I was criitcal of Sony back when I first came and they came out with their first and second party swinging. They proved that they can pump out great exclusives on their own while Microsoft has resort to tactics to hold them down. After I finally got the PS3 in 2009 ( a year after I joined this site), It was like a complete paradigm shift.

Why do I care about repeating patterns? It shows Microsofts weakness where it counts. You figure out what that is.
