It isn't exclusive to PS4 though. So it isn't exclusive. Soooooo does LBP3 cease to exist now? Sounds like to me your are open to progressive lists that are "multiplats on one console but not the other, as well as exclusives". Good on you :) |
It's not a PS4 exclusive, but it is a PlayStation exclusive. Same way FH2 isn't an X1 exclusive, but it is an Xbox exclusive. If someone wants to play either of those games they're going to have to enter MS/Sony's gaming ecosystem. That's a win for them either way (and why they've opted to do it).
TitanFall on the other hand is on PC, a platform outside MS's gaming ecosystem. They may own Windows, but they don't get royalties from games sales, they don't gain any potential sales from a new Xbox owner and don't have the opportunity to sell them XBL. Unlike the purchase of FH2 or LBP3, no console maker profits from a sale on PC. In-fact that PC sale is a lost potential console sale.
Brand exclusives pose less value to an individual platform than a "true" exclusive, but a lot more than something on PC.
