Maybe they should put old Halo games on PS4. But only Switch would allow XBL and its not a direct competitor.

None of Sony's IPs are on PC as far as Im aware, they sold that stuff. But Sony is open to sharing exclusives with PC because they dont see it as a competitor, just simply pointing that out.

Okay, quantify it. Then quantify the exact number every exclusive sells. Then lets make assumptions of how much revenue selling BC content generated.

At least this gen I do think XBL wouldn't come to PS. But with Sony working with MS to improve their streaming service it is possible that XB and PS streaming services show on both platforms then XBL on PS could happen (if MS also allow PSN on Xbox probably).

They aren't exactly open to sharing exclusives with PC. Most of the exclusives also on PC Sony haven't paid anything to have the exclusive. And the very few they may have paid probably costed less when having on PC as well. And they aren't the flagship games of Playstation, so kinda moot.

Every exclusive you can check the bump week over week on the 2 or 3 weeks after a game release, this have been bread and butter of VGC during gen 7. BC itself we haven't seem any significative bump, this is the reason I'm telling you it's neglible. And during the first six months or so of the BC on Xb1 we did get figures on how much BC was used, and was like 15-30min per user on like a full year or something like that.

If Sony is open to having XBL on Playstation, I genuinely believe MS would increase support. I just dont think it would be major titles for competitive reasons.

The point is Sony is open to sharing with PC because its not a direct competitor like Xbox. I agree they save money by sharing with PC but its not relevant.

BC was a feature that was constantly getting better for years. So its benefit to sales could have been spread out. Again, cant quantify it.
