Exactly Sony tried to content starve the series x going to every 3rd party studio for timed exclusives. Microsoft had to fight back can't time exclusive a Microsoft studio lol.
Absolutely. Sony is so cutthroat, there is NO reason for Xbox to put their games on Sony boxes. With Xcloud, Xbox and PC they have plenty of gamers to sell their games and/or Game Pass. I could see them maybe putting some games on Nintendo though.
Good for Microsoft. I wonder if any of those games will go exclusive?
I'm a big Elder Scrolls fan, and I am looking forward to Starfield (although I don't know much about it yet). If those games turn out to be exclusive, I'll buy an Xbox to play them in a few years, when Starfield comes out. By then, maybe Xbox will have Fable and something else I'd like, too.
I don't think that quote rules out exclusivity. "A belief we should bring that to everyone - regardless of who you are, where you live, or what you play on. Regardless of the screen size, the controller, or your ability to even use one."
It sounds more like a feel-good statement that echoes MS's "Play Anywhere" motto. He may just be talking about PC, smartphones, tablets, etc. -- all the devices MS wants to get GP on. It doesn't necessarily mean being able to play the game on PS4/5.

............ correct
Idk when MS does it, it somehow feels less grimes? Like there's a chance you can play thier content in the future, or on switch. I can never expect to play Spiderman without a dual shock
Since you're not refuting anything that I've said, I hope you're at least planning to get a game pass subscription. Starfield looks like it will be good.Phils' power plays aren't an excuse to act retarded now my boy
yeah but not being on PS is a console seller with those games
Looks like Sony was trying to moneyhat timed exclusivity again.
And if they had gotten it, it would have impacted Xbox gamers much less than a buyout.Looks like Sony was trying to moneyhat timed exclusivity again.
Don't people scream about Microsoft should get some exclusives?
Elder scrolls 6 seems like a really great exclusive.
Hey I'm cool with gears on PS5 if I get to play The Ghost of Tsushima 60FPS on GamepassExclusives are anti-consumer and should die already. All games should by LAW be multi-plat and the console makers can compete on hardware features.
They are both publicly traded companies. Even if the management didn't want the company to be bought, enough shareholders might.You’re assuming two of the biggest game companies were willing to be bought.
wow if those franchises go exclusive
How is it less shady to lose a small portion of a game than entire games?
I be what happened was Bethesda was openly playing the field on deals. This happens all the time in manufacturer/store exclusive product deals.Well they got their wish, looks like it's going to be exclusive after all.
Some games will be exclusive on a case by case basis.Seriously, if not already announced games are still coming to Playstation 5, Jim Ryan is laughing his ASS off. MS spent $7.5 billion and they're still giving us the crown jewels, HAHAHAHAHAHAH.

Well, that's some bad news. If Sony buys Capcom too I'll quit videogames.
It's competition, Sony have bought developers before, just the way it goes.
Idk, its a big deal but then it also isn't. MS bought Mojang but Minecraft still appears on Playstation. I doubt all those franchises go exclusive, but instead, MS would earn money for every game sold on Playstation. Its sort of how Sony earns money for every physical Xbox game sold because it uses Blu-ray discs (which Sony helped create).
I'm sure MS will label it as having exclusive content on Xbox, etc., but I doubt every franchise goes Xbox only. Eh, its fine. I honestly haven't played/enjoyed a Bethesda game since I put 20 hours in Skyrim 9 years ago. I tried to like Fallout, Dishonored, and Wolfenstein, but those games are just not for me. I cancelled gamepass last week because I haven't played a game from that service in 4 months. I tend to play what I want and seek it out, rather than playing what's available. It's the same reason I hate Netflix and Hulu. They inundate users with a lot of stuff and hope there's one thing people will like. But I prefer quality over quantity, and would rather not waste my time and settle for something I don't really want to play/watch.
Good get for Xbox; I think most Xbox players enjoy those games. I hope with the cash influx they can finally develop a new engine. That old morrowind engine needs to die a quick death.
I wonder if Sony comes back with buying Capcom or Square Enix. That would make this arms race really interesting.
Future Bethesda games will be on Xbox, PC, and "other consoles on a case by case basis".
Since you're not refuting anything that I've said, I hope you're at least planning to get a game pass subscription. Starfield looks like it will be good.
I hope not cause Bethesduh is still a giant pile of shit no matter who wasted money on acquiring it.Maybe, just maybe MS are investing in their own product hoping that players will buy that product as a result of said investment. You know? Like they've done with Playground games, Ninja Theory, etc.
If Sony had bought out Bethesda this place would be pissing itself with laughter and declaring it a masterstroke investment.
Phil Spencer:If ES 6 is still going to be released on Playstation 5, I'd fire Phil Spencer. That's not a CHAD move, that's an INCEL move.
So, more than likely, Fallout and Elder Scrolls will remain on Playstation for the big bucks, while smaller games like Wolfenstein, Prey, Doom etc. go MS exclusive.
Didn't know how to embed the tweet.Were you posting this in some old vbulletin based forum?
That's not what you guys were saying a few weeks ago when Spiderman comes to the new Avengers game as an exclusive. I wonder why there's a change now?
