@XBOX_VivaLaMayo@FuuTop1 Especially games they purchased rather than created. They could get scrutinized and demanded to break up. Keep the Bethesda & Activision games multi platform & the OG stuff “console exclusive”
@TimoTim19@Swurv__ I’ve been in agreement with you with the exception of the install base. I didn’t say Sony was right. I said they are in a position to do it in ways MS can’t afford. Why people don’t discuss it? Tribalism. It exists in everything
@SymbolOfKrypton Meh, it’s normal. We have two divided fans + the general Twitter flipping a year later
Do it with every CBM. Do it with every video game ( look at Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. You’d think it’s downright unplayable)
@TimoTim19@Swurv__ Cuz they’re idiots. Simple as that. And it’s causing them headaches now. Still, they have the install base to try something like that. Xbox doesn’t.
@MohamedRwanduzy@XboxTimdog never understood it cuz how does this benefit MS? Yes they release games on PC but theyd be helping Steam/EGS more than themselves. At that point, whats the point of the console? Unless its a PC PC with Xbox branding but still the same issue with game stores (Steam would benefit)
@Swurv__ Exclusives don’t benefit the consumers but they benefit the companies. That’s why the exist & will continue to exist ( even if they are unsustainable given the ballooning costs of game development)
@TimoTim19@Swurv__ Doesn’t refute what I said. Xbox is at 35 million. ps5 is at 95 million. Xbox bought a shit load of studios the past 4-5 years. That’s why they have no true exclusives. It’s unsustainable. Especially this late into this gen. Sony is also suffering the same way
@TimoTim19@Swurv__ And Soros is suffering for it. The reason Sony started selling games on PC is because they cost too much to lose that. The difference between them and MS is that they have the install base to potentially make things exclusive. Xbox doesn’t & it certainly won’t this gen
@GameOverThirty Putting COD on it was the biggest blunder. It’s the biggest selling point — whether you like COD or not— but they lost A SHIT TON OF MONEY on it.
@The24thFrame Game pass is great in theory but I couldn’t stay subscribed to it. The only times I felt like I wanted it was when Indiana Jones, and COD released on them. My sub is about to expire &. I wanna play Forza 6, but I’m thinking it’s smarter to just buy it outright
@Stormzy010@xYami21 If they could lower prices, they would. They can’t
more likely they do away with it like the One X. Still support those who have it, but not sell it
You need to have a cheap entry point. 800 is not cheap. 300 maybe cheap enough, but the Series S is showing signs of issues.
@Senninsage@Dalerius1 No they put games out on other platforms because games cost a shit load to make, and it’s not sustainable to leave your games on 1 platform with such a small install base. If they twice the install base, it could potentially make sense, but not right now
