Why do you want any more third-party exclusives? We had enough of this shit already.

Because just yesterday Sony got another 3rd party exclusive, it wasn't a big one but it was a game I was looking forward to (Naruto Storm 4). I want vengeance!!! Lol. But seriously though, I doubt Sony is going to stop getting 3rd party exclusives, some of them they're getting for free just because PS4 is selling exceptionally well, like Naruto Storm 4 yesterday, so MS is going to have to do things that sell more Xbox One's so that 3rd party developers will be less willing to skip Xbox One, and 3rd party exclsuives of their own is the best way to sell more Xbox One's. Yeah, this 3rd party exclusive war sucks, it's ultimately going to be consumers who have a tight budget like myself who lose because they'll be forced to buy 2 consoles instead of 1, but the war's not going anywhere apparently, so I'd rather MS fight that war than just let Sony win it, I am an Xbox One owner afterall.

That sucks then, I didn't even know about that game though lol. But I doubt Sony made it exclusive to their console, but rather it became exclusive due to XB1 having poor sales in Japan and PlayStation having a bigger Japanese game fanbase even in the west than Xbox, now more effective due to a larger install base in the west.

But that doesn't mean that either of them gets a free pass when buying multiplats. It sucks for ROTTR and it sucks for SF V as well as any other game in the future to be made console exclusive. But there is no doubt that MS started it with ROTTR, so if anything you should blame them.

Anyways good thing that I now own both, and I'm thoroughly enjoying Forza Horizon 2 right now. Its in my top 3 favourite games of the year already.

Do you guys actually think that in order to get a third party exclusive all a company needs to do is give the developer/publisher the money that they would have lost from not being able to sell the game on the competitors console?

I always hear this but it just doesn't make much sense to me. It just seems too easy, and if it was this easy then MS would be drowning in third party exclusives. I think it has to take much more than that. What about the fact that if you make a third party exclusive when you release your next game on the competitors console, people won't end up buying it because of what you did in the past.

I know from my perspective if lets say Fallout 4 becomes Xbox exclusives and then ESO 6 is not, I would not be buying ESO 6, or at least not close to full price/day one. The dev/publisher would have left a sour taste in my mouth. So my money wasn't good for you when you released your last game but it works now? IDK maybe I'm just weird like that.



I hope MS secures Saints Row 5, Read Dead 3, and/or Bully as an exclusive..... 

But for real,I think it's pretty obvious that MS will at least secure a 3rd party exclusive in 2015. They're willing to shell out billions on Minecraft and whatever much for Tomb Raider, I'm pretty sure they'll get another for next year (2016 release). 

Sony will do it as well. It's just the nature of this gen. And I honestly don't have that much of an issue with it. Do I think it sucks that I can't play Naruto Storm 4 on my Xbox One? Yes, but hey, I'll just play it on my PS4

You guys love Naruto? I don't get its appeal, its basically a DBZ clone without the awesomeness.

Bolded: Same with me, though the conditions are reversed

What about us poor people who only have money/time for one console.

Riders is sad. =(

Kapi & Slade's Lost Odyssey Bet 

Kapi bet me that he could complete (100% in achievements) Lost Odyssey. I say he cannot. 

  • Kapi must have all the achievements in the game unlocked; 1100 GS. 
  • Kapi has one month from today (January 12th) to complete the game 100%. 
  • Loser: Forfeits avy control to the winner for one month, and saying in the loser's sig how awesome the winner is. 
  • My Tip to Kapi....: Spell Collector is missable (have fun with that). Oh, and Treasure Trove will be the death of you. Good luck to you Sir!

Yep, I look forward to controlling your avatar Slade

Oh... and I've already got the 2 missable spells

Not going to lie.... I was counting on you missing them... FUCK. 

Welp. Treasure Trove is still a huge bitch.

Another pro tip: Underwater items count towards the cheevo
