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. 

That is not consistent. Including strategies from the companies sounds like twisting and turning, and overcomplicating things trying to find a way to justify PS4 ''losing'' exclusives as a good thing for PS4. At the end of the day, it's not a full exclusive to PS4/Xbox/Wii U if it is on PC, its only a console exclusive, period.  To most with a good PC, whether the game is from a third party or first-party, it doesnt matter.

When I was deciding which console to buy, the fact that some of the PS4 games I wanted to play were also on PC (SOMA, Firewatch) were points against the PS4, not for it. I prefer playing on console, but if the games do not come to Xbox, at the very least Ill play them on my PC.



 

Thinking about strategies from the companies sounds like twisting and turning ? Really ? It's just obvious to put things in perspectives and to think "Why did they do that? What is their objective?". In one case, it's "They convinced a third party publisher to keep his game away from the direct competition, while keeping their own exclusives", in the other case it's "They put their own exclusives to another platform". Not the same thing here, but yeah, it's only if you're interested in what will happen in the future .

 

The fact that most Vita exclusive games are coming to PS4 is a great sign of the awesome ambitions Sony has for the Vita 2...

Technically, this move can hint that things will go the other way around as well...
