PC gaming is better anyways. Use the savings to upgrade your rig.

Should this be MS approach? Because it seems like that's the case.
I don't think they deserve praise. Now if there were some shared games between Xbox One and PC, that would be one thing. Instead, almost every major first party game is coming to Windows in addition to Xbox One. I have no reason right now to get an Xbox One. I'd rather just save up the money for a PS4, or better yet a gaming PC.
Sure people buy consoles because they are easier to figure out than a gaming PC, but it's also largely for exclusives.
Lifetime Sales Predictions
Switch: 161 million (was 73 million, then 96 million, then 113 million, then 125 million, then 144 million, then 151 million, then 156 million)
PS5: 122 million (was 105 million, then 115 million) Xbox Series X/S: 38 million (was 60 million, then 67 million, then 57 million. then 48 million. then 40 million)
Switch 2: 120 million (was 116 million)
PS4: 120 mil (was 100 then 130 million, then 122 million) Xbox One: 51 mil (was 50 then 55 mil)
3DS: 75.5 mil (was 73, then 77 million)

I think so. PC gaming is THE place to play in my opinion.

Not if you want the 3rd game of your favorite franchise.

To me it's not about saitisfaction it's about having more good games. The PS4 exclusives aren't great to me because no one else has them they're great because they are good games and I have the only console that can play that game. I also have the ability to play the other great multiplat games.
I agree with TS that multiplats is the best solution everyone should get the chance to play these games. We don't though so if I have to choose I'll choose PS4. TS is basicalyl saying MS should be praised for having less good games avaliable to their consumers. |
What would be the point of competing if all exclusives became multiplat? Eventually only one brand would matter and you would force the mass population to think based on specs rather than what the company makes that or provides which makes them happy. There's a point where pro consumer wholly becomes anti business.

I don't think I was discussing Play Anywhere in my opening post...
"Having exclusives just for the sake of having them doesn't count for much with gamers." So what's so wrong with what would have been an exclusive X1 title being ported to PC? "pc gamers won't touch the games on win 10 because they can't be modded?" Just because a game can't be modded on Win 10 (which doesn't seem to be true according to https://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/3itpdt/so_ive_heard_you_cant_mod_games_on_windows_10/ ) doesn't mean pc players won't give it some play time. "Who really cares if X1 games are playable on win 10 or not." Win 10 gamers. |

It devalues the xbox console. Pretty basic stuff.
Just because a game can't be modded on Win 10 (which doesn't seem to be true according to https://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/3itpdt/so_ive_heard_you_cant_mod_games_on_windows_10/ ) doesn't mean pc players won't give it some play time.
i doubt that the majority of or even some pc gamers will bother with it. There's no point in investing in something that doesn't have as many features as a service compared to an overall better service that's the established method for pc gamers to play (steam).
Win 10 gamers.
Don't you mean steam/pc gamers? Also they wouldn't care about a redundant inferior service that's more anti-consumer than what they use already.

Indeed. God forbid brand loyalty towards Microsoft becomes a thing...

I mean, the satisfaction of having amazing games exclusive to that platform is what i was hinting at, but yes. And it would be interesting if all games were multiplat. I'd imagine then the big 3 would then have to concentrate on their hardware and their user-interface perhaps to differentiate themselves from their competitors, as doing so with the games would of course be impossible. It would be interesting to see what each company would come up with. |
I meant to say it has nothing to do with the satisfaction of me having an amazing game and everyone else not having it. Yes you're correct though there is great satisfaction in having the ability to play an amazing game.
If that ever happened it would be the little things that made people deicde. What do my friends have? Better network? Better interface? Better controller? Etc. I imagine what your friends play would be the biggest deciding factor at that point. As it's already a pretty big factor these days.
