How’s that working out for them?

The reason it's not working out is because they had no exclusives, now they do and the people on the platform that always had exclusives are suddenly upset.

PlayStation doesn’t buy out IP that once was on all platforms and turn it exclusive you knob. They have ip that begin as exclusive.

These aren’t the same things.

If Microsoft want to exclusives, they should home grow it like Sony does. But they can’t. So they just buy it out.

They’re the Yankees of gaming, only they still can have a successful season.
