Because S-E loses little to nothing for going Multi-Plat since Sony doesn’t bother to fight for Exclusives anymore.

At first while the trailer was playing and they were showing off Naruto, Luffy and Goku I was like “oh, they’re making D.O.N Battle 2” but then I was like “but that game never came out in America so a sequel would be weird.” Then I realized it was just another shonen jump arena fighter and was like “hard pass” and then the name; jump force? Gross.
Disappointed that there was no hint of anything VR related, MS aren’t going to back this horse (for gaming)
Also, I lost my shit at the funko pop gears of war game, like I legit belly laughed for a good 30 seconds. as soon as people saw the gears logo people popped but as soon as they saw the funkos it immediately sucked all the hype out of the room. Lol. I mean they made up for it by officially announcing gears 5 but man…the crowd was not happy.
Yep…all this did was get me excited for the games l can get for the PC and/or PS4.
Still no reason for me to buy an Xbone.

Yeah that kind fuckin killed me. I’m pretty sure they did it on purpose to get the first 2 announcements out of the way. But seriously though…why a Gears pop game? lol Are pop games going to be the new Lego?
At least it’s a mobile game (likely f2p) and not a console release.
People need to realize that Console Wars are no longer about Exclusives. It’s pointless to consider at this juncture. One of the reasons Sony jumped out to their lead in this Generation is because they realized that almost immediately.

Disagree. You have to give people a reason to own your console over the others and the biggest pull is what games does one console have that the other does not? 2nd is console features.
One of the biggest reasons Sony is in the lead apart from M$ shitting the bed is their consoles. Did we forget the massive shit storm from Xbox fans pissed about God of War?

Hard disagree as well. I care about exclusivity a lot when it comes to consoles. It’s the sole reason I’ve never bought an xbone. Nothing exclusive to it worth buying.

I’m excited about DMC5, don’t get me wrong, I’m also really glad they didn’t can Nero, but WHAT THE FUCK IS UP WITH THE CHARACTER FACES!? They all look so FUCKING ugly.

And the amount of exclusive PS4 games are minimal as well.
Maybe I should reword what I meant. Exclusives would matter…if the amount of money developers get for doing so would offset the money lost from being restricted behind one console. Previously it was quite easy to buy Exclusives and make up that difference. Now, not NEARLY as much. Now the amount of money required to make up the difference makes buying Exclusives almost completely unwieldy.
There’s a reason why a majority of Exclusives in this Console Generation are either from in-house studios, extreme brand loyalty, or from developers who need the Exclusivity money to actually make their game. If you don’t meet the above three requirements, it’s completely pointless as a developer to go the route of Exclusivity.
When I meant Sony realized that immediately, it means they knew off the bat that it would be tough for them to manage much in the way of previous Exclusives. Instead they focused on picking up Studios who need the financial help, and then went smaller on Console costs knowing that the game disparity would be minimal out of the gate.

…realism.
Yeah, I was thinking the gameplay 3D did not look very good…
The amount of ps4 exclusives are not minimal. I own almost 40 ps4 games and maybe 4-6 of them are multi-platform. And that’s just disc games and the ones I myself own. There are dozens of more ps4 exclusives out there that I don’t own. I’m not even going to count how many digital exclusive games I own or even try to.
Exclusivity still matters a lot in the gaming market. Like, a lot.
So again, disagree.

Not only that. Any “exclusives” MS has are on PC as well. Also God forbid you want to play something not called Gears, Halo, or Forza.
