1. I'm not arguing about preference here. I'm saying that if you're interested in multiplayer games then third party publishers have you pretty well covered. Beyond that I'm saying that there's no inherent benefit to a game being multiplayer focused.

2. That's a really bad argument. The version of these games gamers are actually playing is the worst version. Saying they have the best version because they may be able to play them on a different system years down the line is silly.

1. A game being multiplayer focused and if it's great will make you a lot of money in the long run. That's why Microsoft, EA, Blizzard and Activision are focusing more on it than ever before. Hell, I wouldn't be surprise if Sony focuses on MP games in the future. That's one benefit for the company. For gamers,  If you look at log hours, you will see people spend hundreds if not thousands of hours on these online games. More than they will get on a sp game by almost ten folds at times.

2. PC users have the best and worst version always. Xbox will have the best and worse version always regarding consoles because the BC will extend for a very long time. Also, it's not just consoles itself, but many factors come to play. Someone on PS4 playing on SD t.v. or a sub par hd tv will play the worse version than someone playing on xbox one with hd tv. A lot of variables than just consoles, however right now the best possible way is still xbox one version of games because you can play it on xbox one x with a 4k t.v. And whose to say they won't upgrade their console in the future? The xbox one x will only get cheaper. Hell, I already seen a deal where you can get an xbox one x with a couple games for $450. The sales will only increase especially with price drops and more support. 

Im hoping that after last year with the tremendous backlash these games got with horrible microtransactions, that we see a new direction in big third party games.
