| twintail said: Which would be true if what MS had to pay to secure these 3rd party exclusives was equal to what Sony would have to. But it is not. These 3rd party deals take into account how much money the 3rd party will lose by not having teh game on multiplat platforms. When you have a hardware descrepancy like the one that exists between X1 and PS4, you have a situation where going with MS with exclusivity deal (full game, dlc etc) means losing out a far larger potential market than you do doing the reverse with Sony. MS `might` have more money but that doesnt mean its easier to secure the deals. |
It would depend on the IP. If it's a western IP that sells mostly in the US, I don't think it would be hard to secure one because the Xbox One and PS4 are almost neck and neck.
And Japanese or EU IP though, like say MGS or FF/KH? No, that isn't going to happen lol
