I know. Which is why I provided a list with multiple purchases by Sony. A lot of them not small. A lot of them multiplatform developers, including Insomniac.

I'm just trying to figure out, in the end, after all purchases up until this point... Is it really that different? 

There are a few of games that were made for Xbox from Bethesda which didn't appear on Playstation consoles either, not to mention Windows... Morrowind being the most obvious one. I was trying to steer it away from "mostly exclusive" talk rabbit hole. A multiplatform developer is a multiplatform developer.

I was talking about Insomniac. The only good game they made on Xbox was Sunset Overdrive. Considering the gap between that release and when Sony bought them, there was apparently little interest in making a sequel. MS fans hardly lost anything. Aside from a miniscule chance of a sequel.  

Meanwhile, PS fans who played Skyrim, Oblivion, Fallout, Doom, Evil Within, Rage, etc.  are probably not going to be playing any of the future titles.  

TBH, I'm not so sure about that. I'm one of the few Xbox fans that think they'll keep the bigger titles multiplatform.

Ori shadow released on the Switch not a week ago, the second of the series on the Switch. Cuphead is also multiplatform.

Minecraft is still available. Minecraft dungeons has released.

Based on the info we have, it doesn't seem to be the case that, at least the larger titles, will be omitted.

This is a tangent to the point I'm actually trying to make and neither of us have crystal balls though.
