| BMaker11 said: Let's be consistent from now on. When PS4 gets a bunch of titles that are PS4/PC, we happily say "console exclusive" and that since it's not on XBOne, it doesn't mean anything that the games are on PC. So, when XBOne games go PC, but not PS4, it's not "losing exclusives". Not on PS4, so it doesn't matter that they're on PC. With that said, the fact that it's first party games is interesting. The point of first party games is that they're only on your console. You'll never see Mario or Uncharted on PC. Granted, it's Microsoft, and games like Halo have been on PC so it's not unprecedented. But also, on the onset of this gen, they were pretty stern about 1st party games not coming to PC and it's happening anyway |
You answer to your "consistency" comment yourself ^^.
If third party games are PS4/PC and Sony games are PS4, then it makes the Xbox one irrelevant and help the PS4.
If MS games are Xbox One and PC, then it also makes the Xbox One irrelevant. And it also matches with the "Let the Xbox die and come back to PC" usual strategy ideas, which is not really possible or relevant for Sony. I still think personally that they will make a big Xbox app and port their games on it to push W10 gaming and focus more and more on that (give us AoE 4, MS!) .
MS chooses to not favor the Xbox One, when Sony and the third party publishers choose to deprive the Xbox One of some games. It's all good for PC gamers, pretty good for PS4 gamers (more and more games are inclined to take the PS4/PC way instead of just PC), but nothing good for Xbox One gamers seems to come out of these deals.
There is consistency here, but the issues and strategies of each company are different.
