Yeah this surprises me

Expected a Microsoft store exclusive

[That-_one_Sora 4]

Thank god I have a week of spring break

[MeowWow 14]

Oh yeah

This is my last week before spring break

[GoldenDrummer730 12]

wonder if companies are giving up trying to use their own stores

[MeowWow 14]

hopefully this blizzard extends break a bit

[Novayon 192]

It's weird. Microsoft is making some strange moves

Epic games store is causing all sorts of controversy though

[ConnahDC 5]

i know MS gets alot of hate

for no reason

but i think theyre making big moves

[Novayon 192]

They are

Like the game pass on switch

They're going in a new direction it seems

[ConnahDC 5]

like... theyre being very consumer friendly then the PS fanboys come out the woodworks and attack them for.... being consumer friendly

[Otti#8624 26]

Most of the hate they get is because of the exclusives

At least, from what I have noticed

[ConnahDC 5]

they deserved hate for keeping tomb raider esclusive for a year

[Otti#8624 26]

No, I mean lack of exclusives

[ConnahDC 5]

there isnt a lack though is there lol

good or bad, theyre still making exclusives

[Novayon 192]

This seems to be their way of dealing with the exclusive thing, by trying to become a platform for games rather than just a console with lame exclusive games

Rather than fight Sony through exclusives, a fight they can't win. They are doing something else

[ConnahDC 5]

ive never agreed with exclusiveity anyway

[Otti#8624 26]

Well, it is a lack of exclusives if they can't make them memorable

Halo and Forza I think it was aside, there haven't been many that have come out that people still talk about

[ConnahDC 5]

sunset overdrive

[Otti#8624 26]

Crackdown ended up bad, the time travel one didn't get much talk

Sunset is so dope

[ConnahDC 5]

sea of thieves getting attention lately

[Otti#8624 26]

Love that one

[Novayon 192]

Still, sony seems to hold the cards when it comes to exclusives

[Otti#8624 26]

Microsoft is definitely focusing on exclusives now tho

[Icecl Keyheart 13]

maybe its a bais or something but to me xbox lacks rpgs of the kind i care about which is why idc for it

[Otti#8624 26]

They have bought a few new studios, including the folks who made Hellblade

[ConnahDC 5]

also people need to sto sayig "Xbox exclyusive"

its "microsoft exclusive" now
