If they are swining on the PS4 they will need more then the same rehash of Forza content each year and a 5 hour makes no story sense Halo campaign.   Next Gears better be best of the series cause Uncharted will swing like Holly holm to X1s Ronda.  

Iv been serverly dissapointed with the exclusives form both this gen, its been mostly 3rd parties carrying my gaming.  Differnce being xbox already fired their big guns while PS has all of their still locked and loarded readying to blast.  

Anyone with common sense knows that Sony appeals to the world. Even if they are losing they can use world sales to catch up to Microsoft. Microsoft does not have the British or American sales advantage. Microsoft cannot pull a Sony 180 in sales but they can in offerings. In terms of exclusives from gen to gen so far this has been Microsofts best showing of quality exclusives for sure. Microsoft has never had a better exclusive lineup than what they've been showing between 2015-2016. Again, Microsoft was never said to be a great developer. Sony is.

You overrate ms current offerings.  360 days felt more epic, x1 exclusives are boring same old same old to me to be honest.

When Geras hit and Mass Effect, those were something special and HAlo 3 and Bioshock.  360 was the place to game on,  MS has lacked that all this gen.  Nothing they have released till now on X1 can even sniff the greatness they had early last gen.

Plenty have said ms is a great developer many say they rival even Sony.  So please stop making it seem ms is the poor underdog that deserves brownie points for trying hard.   Signs also point to sony 2016 beating of anything MS has done with X1, their offerings if no delays wil bring in the best gaming year the 8th gen has seen.  

As i alluded to earlier X1 can be great but its not there yet.

And i dont cut slack to billion dollar corporate juggernauts.

The 360 era saw Microsoft scambling to beat Sony to the market, gaining some third party exclusives for being a year ahead and multiplat focused, but it gave you RROD because Microsoft knew they rushed the product. Microsoft didnt properly invest in their properties. Rares games still werent great. Killer Instinct by itself IMHO is of a higher quality than what Rare put out last gen. Microsoft didnt let Rare make that game.  Mass Effect was paid for to keep it away from Sony and Gears had an exclusivity deal. Microsoft ended up publishing everyone elses quality games and but today they are making these games first party. They were not interested in building up first party IP and this is why Phil Spencer is so great. He noticed what made Sony and Nintendo so great that the Xbox brand lacked even in the 360 era. 

MS is not a great developer, but they own great IP's. Theres a difference. Microsoft only two three great franchises Halo, Forza and Gears. Fable is lost (I mean come on...we can admit this already). They are following what Sony does which is focusing on amassing third party and building first party IP's internally and with third and second party as well as first party. Problem with Microsoft is they really suck at making new IP's so most of their good IP's are paid commissioned to outside devs. Its as simple as that. Sony does 1st, 2nd and 3rd party and they dont rest on one like Microsoft at a time. They are working on all fronts. This is just one of the reasons why Sony is naturally trusted more than Microsoft worldwide.
