"Like get timed exclusive release for MGS new game, or exclusive content? Or an exclusive spin-off from MGS? Or a new IP?"

First line, bro.

That's an example, we're not dealing exclusively with MGS...

Honestly, I think Konami is sour over Kojima leaving 'em and will more than likely approach MS about making a game or two exclusive. I don't think MS really needs to respond in any way and shouldn't do any deal with Konami.

I think MS might sell more if they spit on Konami's face, especially if Phil Spencer or Major Nelson does it...

If MS is gonna make an exclusive deal, why would hey do it with Konami? They don't exactly make games Xbox fans are looking for.

New IP that does? I just now noticed old IPs don't seem to be suffering from poor sales on the XONE. They are suffering poor sales across the board. The new IPs seem to be racketing up the numbers left by the old series. If anything, now's the generation to create new IPs and kill old ones.

What you're saying is inaccurate. There are long running IPs (10 years or older) doing fine on Xbox One.

Just a few new IPs did exceptionally well on X1, which happen to be shooters that feel like old IPs.

I was referring to the exclusives...
