| Sarkar said: Of course there's money involved. That doesn't diminish the fact that a publisher would much rather have the deal with Playstation than Xbox, that's why as we've seen time and again, Sony get's the marketing deals for the biggest, most hyped games, and MS has been making do with the leftovers. It was the opposite last generation where Xbox got their pick and Sony had to make do with the leftovers. There's also the facet that the cost for MS to get exclusivity is much higher than it is for Sony due to their installbase difference and money for Xbox division is tight. Anyone who thinks MS is not doing these deals out of some sense of morality needs to get a reality check. This is the company responsible for the disturbing state of the gaming industry today. |
Money > Userbase.
EGS gets games over who ever is the most popular and they will continue to get games no matter how big there competition is. That's business.
I cringe every time I read someone say "Well Xbox did it before so its okay if Sony do it now"
We use to burn woman alive at the stake if we believed they were witches, they did it back than so I guess its okay now. That's the logic on anyone who believes that is the correct way of thinking. Utter Nonsense. What is wrong to do is always wrong to do no matter who did it first and who does it last.
