My next gen predictions, Microsoft, will exit the console Market, and Sega, will re-entry in the console market.

They are still X1 console exclusive. Most console gamers don't have gaming rigs, so the affect on sales is minimal at best. The average console gamer will see this as, "can't play this on PS4" and that is what will influence their decision should they favor these games.

The whole PC thing is nothing more than an excuse for a fanboy to use in list wars to discredit exclusives, even though they themselves do not have a rig powerful enough rig to actually run these games.

And that's the ps4 fanboy excuse to play it on of and not buy an Xbox. Once it's on pc its in any and territory who is willing to spend on a rig to stay clear of the Xbox. I have friends who use the ps4 purely for exclusives and of for multiplatform games. Sure quantum break isn't coming to ps4 but it's on multiple platforms making it multiplatform.

Until the PC fanbase is big enough that if every game was also on PC no one would buy consoles, console exclusively is still a big factor.  We all know people in the situation you describe, even more when you go online.  Fact is however most gamers do not go to the forums nor do we know them personally.

 

As of right now if all exclusives were only console exclusive and were also on PC, console sales would still be plenty healthy even with the loss to those who game on PC.  Also there is the friend factor.  I have all of the consoles and plenty of cash to drop into a PC today if I wanted to, but 99 percent of the people I know game on X1 or PS4 so I go console instead.  Already having a machine that can run just about any game out there, I see it a waste if money to invest in a PC for my single player games.  There is really no point at this time.

 

And that is why PC versions will have little affect on console exclusive games.  Sure it is technically "muliplat", but realisticly console exclusive is a much more relevant term in these cases.

That's great news. This means Microsoft is supporting both of their platforms. After all, when it says that its coming to PC, it means Windows.

Doesn't bother me. I can still play the games on the console I bought to play them on!

Good move for Microsoft. Regardless of where consumers buy the game, Microsoft will benefit. Even if they diminish the value of the XBO, they'll be increasing the value of Win 10 (which they value more internally).

I can see this happening more often in the future with their exclusive games.

M'y thought " just as planned, i should dig to find back all thés threads where they were insulting US for trying to open their eyes making them understand that 90% of X1 exclusive would come to PC . Scalebound is obviously next "

I thought you only used it for Mobas and low end games?. THose specs for QB require an actual upgrade to play it as it's shown.

I would buy it on console, and since the Xbone version comes with a free copy on PC, plus other perks like better controller and UI imho, Xbone would still be the no brainer.

 

LOL @ worst nightmare. Maybe you mean American Nightmare, the free game that comes with QB. What a stupid notion that people care if it comes to PC. Why has this never come up with SFV? Its funny.

Although "never" isn't the word I'd use, SFV isn't owned by Sony, nor is it part of an abundance of Sony owned IPs that are also coming to PC. 

How many IP's Sony has coming to PC, or who owns the SF IP is entirely irrelevant. You can throw Shenmue 3 and the FF7 remake in there, too. Or the loads of indies PS4 had over Xbine for awhile. It wasnt a bad thing that games were on PC as well. All that mattered is PS4 was the only console. Its a funny, petty double standard.

Eventually some people here will understand theres extremely little overlap between PC and console and thats why MicroSony makes these deals that allow PC releases. If it were anywhere close to the big deal people make it out to be in these threads, they wouldnt do those deals :)

Its not rocket science.
