"As time goes on, exclusives are becoming less and less of a console-defining feature and more and more of a way for companies to monopolize on games and their fans." | Explosion.com

Everyone expected that the Order to defend 10 planets would fail. But, Helldivers 2 players did the impossible, surprising everyone.
A detailed guide that covers all the weapons in Helldivers 2, definitive tier list that details how effective they are.
Exclusives will never die
Some Brands like Nintendo for example run off of exclusive content. Exclusives "becoming less and less of a console defining feature" may be true for some, but false for the Nintendo product line. Seeing that from Nintendo home consoles down to handhelds are completely defined by AAA quality Nintendo exclusive content. So much in fact that 3rd party often has a hard time selling to expectations on Nintendo platforms.

Rated E For Everyone
Each platform all have great exclusives.
The only people wishing them death are bitter because 'x' exclusive is not on their console of choice.
Next gen, exclusives will matter even less. Gamers should prepare to see less games because of increased development cost. One publisher (Ubisoft) has already come out and said they will be publishing/developing less games because of it.
I think there won't be any more third-party-published exclusives because they won't take the risk anymore. So I think that Sony, MS and Nintendo will publish those titles to make them exclusive to their console. Just like Nintendo has done with Bayoneta 2.
This guy clearly doesnt realize Mario, Uncharted & Halo are flagship titles that are will never be mulitplat. Those are just some of the many few. Everyone has a reason they pick up a certain platform. Exclusives usually seal the deal for a consumer.
