I doubt uncharted 4 has that much of an effect, but I see the reason behind it, I still think it's a bit too early to say the Xone is already doomed and a new Gears and QB can still do wonders for the Xone. Besides Sony surely will screw something up, but MS got to have a wonderful E3 to assure gamers the Xone is still a good console and worth owning for various reasons, bringing exclusives to PC just isn't, but if I look at Splatoon one might say everything is possible.

So Quark, what are your thoughts now that Microsoft have pretty much made it official that the Xbox One will NOT have any true exclusives? That, it seems to me, they are focusing on PC and allowing the Xbox One to disappear in sales. 

Also worth noting that In February sales again showed PS4 outselling Xbox One 3:1. You still convinced this will change? QB to the rescue??

 

That was a bit of an akward move from MS, but still the ship isn't sunk yet. As I looked to the sales of MS troughout february and march it baseline is still around 100k, which means around 8-10 million sales a year including holiday effect. It will never best the PS4 but it still should be able to get a userbase around 50 million. They must ficus in third party deals to make that number, possible bailouts include a deal for the next rockstar game (GTA6), exclusive DLC for COD, plenty of good games which don't release on PS4 and it will get there. No way it's going to be dead this or next year already it isn't the Wii U.
