Just yes, MS 1st party is better. And again, Sony and MS excel in some genres where the other does not.

Sony can't really afford to money hat anymore, I bet they would if they could and they did in the past. Nintendo can afford to moneyhat and have, I think they regret the deal they made with Sega at the moment.

Saying Titanfall is half a game like saying The Order 1886 is half a game for just being single player. Also, I'd argue great multiplayer has more value than a single player campaign. I've spent more time with Titanfall than most single player experiences.

If MS moneyhatted PES maybe the hardcore PES fans would go to Xbox! It was just an idea. Tomb Raider Definitive Edition sold a lot better on Playstation but MS somehow got the timed exclusivity. Hence, MS just has to pay to make up the difference, right? PES is a cheaper game to moneyhat than Tomb Raider.


How is MS first party better when they have no major exclusives for like 8 months next year? What do they have competing with bloodbourne and the order? Half their games "exclusives" come out on PC anyway. 

And I reckon Sony wouldn't moneyhat like MS do even if they could given how dominant the PS4 is WW. All they need is exclusive advertising and the game will dominate on Playstation. If MS get the advertising the game still sells more on Playstation and sometimes a lot more examples being Dragon, Age, Advanced Warfare and Fifa. So they are happy out. 

No it;s not because Titanfall is half a game for an online game. God that really was barebones stuff and it's no wonder the game has  been going for 5$ on BF and the xbox complete version going for 12$. There are very few people left playing the game at least before the firesale. And that's confirmed by countless owners on here. 

Yeah MS got the exclusisivity for Tomb Raider but it's not going to sway PS owners in big numbers. Obviously not now that we know it's only timed but it doesn't take a genius to know MS can only get most of their exclusives timed to begin with. Their true exclusive line up (games made by them) is very weak. 

And no PES going exclusive would be suicide for the franchise. It would just die. It sells well in Japan so there goes a lot of people that would never switch. And in the EU and ROW people would all switch to FIFA. That is a terrible idea and MS nor Konami would never do it because they would be signing the death  of it. But if they went with Sony only it could work out well for the franchise and that's without Sony moneyhatting. Their dominat platform is just a receipe for success.


I kind of zoned out in your post but 2 things did catch my eye that i wanted to correct you on:

1. Idk why you'd make disparaging comments about one companies 1st party offering or tendency to buy titles, and then ask what that company has to compete against Bloodborne and The Order. You realize neither of these are 1st party, and both are moneyhatted?

2. Regarding Titanfall, i play the game virtually every day. I play LTS almost exclusively. Its probably not even top 3 in the games most popular playlists, and yet i always find games quick and get full games. Just got to the very top of the ranked play rank list too. Its great. Maybe try things for yourself so you know whats going on as opposed to parroting the words of "countless" users on a message board.
