Not sure I understand any of the logic behind this.
MS this gen have more AAA exclusives than any gen before.
It doesn't matter if MS choose to spend their money on obtaining a studios Ip with their money, or obtaining there own studio with alot more money.

The reality is we have the best Xbox line up we have ever had exclusive wise. IMO MS have better AAA exclusive games than Sony this gen out or coming out in the following genres. FPS, TPS, Cinematic, RTS, sim racing, arcade racing, 2d platformer, Action adventure, Fighting.

Couple with the fact Sony have twice said they are concentrating less on AAA games on more on small indie titles and to be honest I'm far happier as an Xbox gamer than most of my friends that are PS4 gamers. Most of my PS4 friends aren't fans of indie titles either.

"best Xbox line up we have ever had exclusive wise"

You have to be joking or haven't played any Xbox other than the Xbone. Both the original Xbox and 360 had much more and much more diversity in their games lineup. OG Xbox had awesome Japanese support from Sega, Otogi franchise from Fromsoft, Rare despite out of many talent had freedom to make what they wanted, Halo was new, PGR was a thing, MS funded diverse 3rd party deals like Voodoo Vince. 360 continued that until the Kinect came out, it's been downhill since then. They've been mocking Xbox with it but the closure of Lionhead and other studios recently Xbox now really is reduced to the "Forza, Gears, Halo" brand, and it looks like it's starting to lose even those to the PC.

I've bought the previous Xboxes within 2 years of launch and they all amazing games by then but 2 and a half years of Xbone the only reason I come up with to buy one is Sunset Overdrive, all the others so far as I know (minus Halo and Forza Horizon) are on PC or coming to PC. Killer Instinct? Check. Dead Rising 3? Check. Tomb Raider? Check. Quantum Break? Check. Cuphead? Check. The only other game I'm interested on Xbox is Scalebound and that's delayed to next year.

There is a serious lack of exclusives on the console. At least on PS4 even if Sony doesn't make games there's still tons coming out, just in the last 2 months we got: Amplitude, Firewatch, Witness, Digimon Story, and SFV. What did Xb1 have so far? It's been dry since the holiday season until Quantum break and it will be dry until the next holiday season.

 am referring to its first 2 years. I have found more good exclusives in a wider variety of genres. I can understand there are some who have a gaming pc. And thats fine. I can only go off personal experience. I personally don't know anyone that has a Ps4 or Xbox one who has a gaming pc. Whereas on the internet I cannot possibly know if someone is just saying it for list wars reasons or not. Not to say your lying at all. Its just the reality of the world. I know a couple of PC gamers but they have just played wow for the last 10 years.
