SOE did put games on consoles. Some on PS2, PSP and PS3. Alright Why doesn't Sony tell SOE to stop putting games on Windows to help move more PS3 and PS4 consoles? Because that would be leaving money on the table. There is no guarantee a significant number of people will buy a console to play those games. Because SOE doesn't care about selling PS4s, they care about selling their games, Sony cares about selling PlayStation 4s and to that end they do not want to sell XB1s so they are going to override SOE's desire to sell more copies, and keep SOE from publishing on Xbox platforms MS likely saves money by allowing developers to put their games on PC. Doing that also helps them get exclusive deals. That's silly speculation. Why would MS be concerned with saving money on exclusives, especially in losing in their best region. Ultimately, Windows is neutral ground to Sony and MS. Which is why both allow console exclusives on it. If its on PC, its not exclusive period. Its multiplat. PC sales mean no console sales. Hell even if its on multiple consoles its not exclusive. Its Multiplat. |
Perhaps I should make a thread defining what an exclusive is because list wars seem to have confused a lot of people.
Once a game is on another platform, its no longer serves the purpose of an exclusive.
