If Sony is willing to pay tons of money then I’m glad MS isn’t snatching up stuff on par. It’s a waste of money. The only downside is Sony doesn’t just sign deals, they sign really shitty deals that last a year+. It’s not like some of the Xbox deals where it’s 30 days or a few months or half a year like Tetris.

The upside is the games are discounted and full of more content by the time they come to other platforms.

I don't think it is a case of being unable to beat Sony, it's a case of them thinking the money is better spent elsewhere, Sony has utterly dominated Microsoft in hardware sales this generation and that would reflect in any deals made with publishers, Microsoft would likely have to pay at minimum double what Sony is offering, at the end of the day these exclusives are only timed and Microsoft is better off investing that money into building their 1st party for Gamepass releases that will stay forever.

Given how much of a money sink Gamepass likely is right now, on-top of the 15 studios, it's clear there's a huge financial backing behind Xbox, but yeah they need to do more, they need more studios, as I've said we'll have to wait and see what happens with WBIE as they're currently looking into that, a deal that big could take a while but it will also be costly not just in acquisition price but use a large chunk of Xbox's budget too.

If the WBIE deal falls through and they acquire no more studios then yeah, I'll start wondering what the hell Xbox is doing but for now it's more of a wait and see.

This is what I think too. If MS wanted to moneyhat a big 3rd party publisher, they would have to recoup the losses from PS, so it theoretically could be double to what Sony has to pay, just because of their market share. 

Agreed with the last part as well. If MS is content with what they currently have and no intention of securing more studios after seeing Sony throw money around, then I would question them as well. 

Just wish we knew when any of this is going down. I'm guessing within the next 6 months? Idk.. Damn if Sony gets all these moneyhats, I really hope they get WB.

What game is even worth this amount, GTA6 maybe as a timed exclusive?

This is insider? Seems too low for GTA, yet too high for FF. COD? Some MP mode?

No way its CoD. The game already has an xbox port leaked from the MS store. I think it could possibly be GTAV because 750m might be enough to cover profit a GTA makes im lets say the first 6 months. Could see it being 1 year stanfield though too.

Looking through his tweets, just seems like a fanboy. What’s his credentials?

Foxy is a fanboy of the first order. He leaked that PS5 is 13TF and stuff.

750 million sounds insane for an exclusivity deal lol. That kind of money to shit on millions of gamers. Then again it's Sony so I wouldn't be surprised. Not buying their products even if The Witcher 4 was exclusive. F**k off.
