| Soundwave said: I really do wonder if Nadella is forcing the XBox to division to have to go without. Nadella was appointed CEO in Feb 2014, so it's quite possible even the Rise of Tomb Raider and certainly the Titanfall exclusivity deals were negotiating before Nadella took the reigns of the company. Since then, MS hasn't scored any real type of third party exclusive. And like I can understand Sony having more at their show, but to literally get shut out of Batman, Star Wars Battlefront, Assassin's Creed, Destiny, Hitman, and Call of Duty ... I mean all of them? It's mind boggling and I have to wonder if Phil Spencer really had a choice here or not.. Like how could you not even get one of those at your conference? |
Dont blame nadela.
Early on One survived of deals signed based on the previous gen, Once PS4 started its sales bonanza things quickly changed.
Nobody would pay what it takes now given the user base, im sure they all are willing since they know PS4 version will still sale more while hopeing MS pay out the booty for commercials and stuff thats mostly irrelevent to the game as a whole.
If dev X tells you to cover their loses expected to be in the 2/3 million (ps4 version) in sales for timed exclusivity on the X1, would you ?
