tbf, this should just be the case in general.

And I mean, everyone who wants to play Fallout 5 at release will still need to buy an Xbox anyways, so I guess it works for everyone.

Yeah this was already obvious. Nintendo is the real last holdout on exclusives but they won't budge.

they have "console exclusives"? I thought "XBOX" always meant "windows PC" in practice.

Sony still holds out as well. Still no Horizon/God of War/etc on Xbox.

And that probably won't happen since Sony has no problems moving consoles.

It'll happen if the Xbox sales justify it. Right now they obviously don't. They're porting to PC because the PC gamer market is like 3x the size of PlayStation.

I've been looking forward to Fable & South of Midnight, so if either one comes to PS5, that would be fine with me.

I might even cop Avowed if that happens.

Seems like they're going all in on the idea that Game Pass (and new first-party games dropping into the service day 1) makes the Xbox ecosystem the best value to play multiplatform games, so people who play a lot of those games will get an Xbox and Game Pass to save money. But if it doesn't pay off, then I could definitely see Microsoft leaving the console market and going 3rd party at some point.

If something is on both Xbox and PC, then by definition, it is not an "exclusive".

Sony was already headed this way, so it's no surprise Microsoft is doing this too. Nintendo is the only one with permanent exclusives now.

Just a ramble here.

This to me just feels like Microsoft may be done with competitive consoles. Phil mentioned a while ago that future hardware is viewed more like a pre built budgeted custom PC. Which I guess you can say that's what it's always been. But now with name brands being so widely accepted and massively populated around the world.

I think it comes down to live service model. And in some form or another a big single player game, or something of that fashion. with the demand in profits and marginal increases. Live service models will exist forever, and more single player oriented game could potential send a profit hike in-between. This is all ideal. But its a feeling I've sort of had recently. The only real concern for me is original IP's. While I think will still get them. I worry that they'll come far and few between.
