Re: Xbox Boss Believes Sony's Strategy of Console Exclusives Is 'Antiquated'

Antiquated?? What a strange and interesting choice of words from the marketing department.

I think the real message is that Xbox exclusives are now irrelevant and MS are simply crying because their strategy of buying exclusives (for Gamepass) has failed, the big chequebook spending of Bethesda and Activistion (for Gamepass exclusives) has also failed.
Now they have to resort to multiplatform to have any form of relevance and so for them the strategy of console exclusives is 'antiquated'.

Both SONY and Nintendo's strategy of console exclusives however is anything but, you can see how games like Astrobot and Ghost of Yotei push the envelope on what can be created (in PS5 examples) or any Mario game on what new ideas can be brought to the table.
