^This. I believe their contracts with the various sports leagues forbids them from releasing the games as exclusives. Hypothetically though, if EA could release all of their games as exclusived for their own console it likely would sell very well. They'd have the EA Sports games, as well as all of the series from Bioware, DICE, Criterion, and MAXIS as exclusives, and those are some pretty big series: Mass Effect, Dragon Age, Battlefield, The Sims, SIM City, Burnout, Need for Speed, etc. |
Not really true. Maybe for NFL since they're the only ones that can make an NFL game, but for boxing, soccer, etc, they're allowed exclusivity. They pay to be able to create the game using that license. Doesn't matter if they use the license on a single console or multiple consoles. Sony pays for the MLB license to release MLB The Show exclusive on Playstation consoles.
