How do you get a general audience to miss the actual truth of what's being offered? You overwhelm them. Only people who pay attention will notice. Microsoft dropped 90% games that will be on both platforms (even if Its not at launch). When timed exclusive is not a true exclusive. It only means its launching earlier. When someone says 22 exclusives that's misinformation. Microsoft has a handful of exclusive split up between two years. We would be wise to add halo to next years list too.

I agree that it's misinformation for people who don't pay attention, but that's beyond the point. I know MS didn't need to push that because those timed exclusives won't sell consoles.

My point is that timed exclusives are exclusives until they get released on another console. Exclusivity isn't defined as something that's unavailable forever, except if you want to force that standpoint. But then what term would you want to use for timed exclusives if not "exclusive"? Just invent a new term just like MS did?

Fair point. Understood. MS even closed the show with a multiplat. ThAt shows you what they think of the quality of their first party (sorry this is being written on a cellphone). Outside of forza they had nothing to show that could show the power of the Scorpio.
