I thought the main reason for this kind of move is to allow games that might have low player counts on individual platforms join the platforms together to gain a larger one overall. This won't change things like CoD or FIFA. I'd presume they will remain the same as ever. MS allowing such a thing is good PR for them in line with what Sony already wanted to do (right?).

I didn't realise it was a reason to make Sony out to be bad guys when they say 'no' to a game that doesn't need it when MS are pushing for it.

Like you say, it's up to the developers, not MS or Sony in the end.

Yeah, it will depend on developers mostly but there are one or two that are close to MS. Most notably EA, could make things uncomfortable for Sony. But that is just a hypothetical at this point....
