MS Exclusive Third Party Advertising No Longer Makes Sense.

Sony can't/doesn't pay for it, MS does. MS then gets exclusive third party advertising, by paying for it.

It makes a lot of sense. As a developer, you put things where the money is given. It doesn't matter if that one turns out to be the least-selling version, because at the end of the day you still profit from Xbox One, Ps4 and the exclusive advertising rights.

But if advertising on the PS4 means you are likely to sell far more copies, then that makes more sense. Yes, the money from MS helps ballance that out but at some point, and I think sooner rather than later, the same publishers will want to build an install base for future iterations of their franchise, not take money up front. One compensates, one invests.

Well because SONY knows even if Microsoft paying the deal, the games will be sold far better on their platform. SONY doesn't have to spend on this useless deal and it's better to put the budget on somewhere else (first party, real exclusive deal).

and also this will make game publisher drain money from Microsoft (do understand why minecratf is such waste for microsoft ) while also get money from the amount of sales from PS4. and i hope the game industry can still exist thanks to this kind of deal.
