So, FF7R2 is looking like a strong GOTY contender with a 93 on Opencritic, I'm not seeing much else on the release schedule for the year that could top it. A real shame that Xbox just stood by and let Sony moneyhat all of these Final Fantasy games.

Maybe we will still get it this year since Sony reportedly only has a 3 month deal this time, but that could just mean 3 months before PC and an Infinity of waiting for an Xbox port, since FF7R1 still isn't on Xbox after nearly 4 years.

I can't imagine what the price figure would look like lol. It was reported early on that Sony was hellbent on ensuring FF was PS exclusive this gen. So not only would have had to Sony offer an insane amount of money for the exclusivity of already 3 FF games, but they even offered direct support to help develop the games. 

Whatever Sony offered, Microsoft would've had to have paid at least triple that amount. Why spend that much on games they wouldn't even be able to get on GP, when they could've gone on a spending spree to have ownership of over 50x the IP and ensure each of those IP go on GP?
