UPDATE
Okay this was a thread backfire
I have done some further research
Apparently it's nothing to do with Microsoft and something related to the Tetris license, the timing of both events made it look like a Microsoft moneyhat
ORIGINAL OP
Thought this needs it's own thread. Remember consumer friendly Phil Spencer says he doesn't like timed exclusives or exclusive DLC. Yet the Microsoft showcase had a ton of timed exclusives. Well Microsoft went for a low blow and had a Tetris Patch delayed for a launch console Tetris exclusive. But the killer low blow is what needs it's own thread. Microsoft got remote play removed from PS4 version. This is the first time I have heard a moneyhat removes features from a competitor. This is the ultimate form of moneyhatting. What's next Microsoft will send a moneyhat to a developer to cause games to crash on PS4.
