I am not talking about "real" platform exclusives: games produced by game studios owned by the respective companies.
It is about grabbing an existing product, that would otherwise be available on all platform, and bribing it into not appearing on other platforms for some time.
So that kind of exclusives is fine for Sony, even though it forces many gamers to either spend money to buy that other console or wait for exclusiveness to expire.
Also OK for Microsoft, obviously.
But when that "evil" company, that routinely gives out games for free (and it used to be indies/superoldies but is now stuff like GTA V), gets only 12% of the price (vs standard 30%) does it, forcing gamers, god forbid, into choosing between installing some free software or waiting for exclusivity to expire, it is diabolic kind of sinister?
Comrades, don't you think something is not quite fair in this picture?
