Facts . Xbox one doesnt have any exclusives and all microsoft first party games will be on pc also. Sony has a lot of exclusive titles that are only on playstation. I shouldn't have to explain what an exclusive game is but there are a lot of fanat-X that says exclusive games are on xbox one but you can also play them on a pc. Exclusive means exclusive but not to some fanat-X

ShadowKnight3060d ago (Edited 3060d ago )

Yup I agree. Tbh I would also put PC exclusive games above the Xbox first party games as of right now when it comes to strategy (RTS), shooters, RPGs, and indies imo.

I have a opinion too:
1. Xbox/PC
2. Nintendo
3. PlayStation

@Xmanone

You are allowed to have your own opinion, just don't expect many people to agree with it.

Mr Pumblechook3060d ago (Edited 3059d ago )

Why you all hating on Xbox? It has tons of games. Let me list them ALL:

Phantom Dust HD
Halo Wars 2
Sea of Thieves
Cuphead
Crackdown

Is this a trick statement from him as isn't he usually wrong on the things he says? Or is that just his predictions and not general topics?

Patcher aside... yes playstation lineup has some impressive games that I am anxious to play. Then again so does the xbox and nintendo platforms as well.

Agreed. LOL! I like the * next to XBOX LOL!

I think many people don't get why PS was able to have SOOOOO many exclusives.

Nintendo for a LONG time has dueled platforms with handheld and console and today they pretty much confirmed they are still doing that with 3DS and Switch.....sad.

MS also did the same with XB, they started putting games on PC, with 360 they continued but slowed down mid gen, then later into 360 start putting games on PC again like with Alan Wake, Fable 3 etc. With the start of XONE, you saw some titles go to PC, then not too long ago they confirmed both PC and XONE will get the same titles.

Sony with the PSP is the only time they properly dueled exclusives to 2 platforms, they tried with PSVita and announced they would no longer make titles for it and then put 100% behind PS4.

What you are seeing from PS4 is Sony's smart choices they made 11 years ago to buy more teams and ironically the PS Vita failing. Gravity Rush 2 we all know would have been a PS Vita game if that platform didn't fail.

I feel that Nintendo can do better, has the money to do better, but they've made some bad, bad choices over the years. For themselves and for their fans.

My personal opinion of what Nintendo should have done following the Wii.

Buy the old Rare team when they left MS, buy Atlus, buy Creative Assembly, buy more teams in general. (they sold more then Sony last gen folks, no reason why they should be buying LESS teams)

Make Switch known that it is to replace BOTH Wii U and 3DS and it will receive 100% of the support. They can always make a smaller version, they need to let it be known that its BOTH a handheld and a home console and that they will have all their teams on 1 device.

By telling people 3DS is not replacing Switch and that its still going to be getting support, they've just made their own install base wait and see what will happen with 3DS as suppose to buy Switch. For all we know, the 3DS gamers might be waiting to support what they think will be THE NEXT handheld as suppose to the Switch.

Nintendo has basically hurt their own best interest by continue to fragment their install base. Even if this isn't Wii U vs 3DS, the perception by the community based on Nintendo OWN WORDS are leading many to believe it is in deed the same situation as Wii U vs 3DS.

Heed your own advice sir haha. This is a playstation article, no comments please.

Why o why3060d ago

Mr Pumblechook

Lol.... the devil is in the detail...

Keyword those who disagreed didn't take note of was 'all'. Well played

In regards to what most people know and others try their best to swerve around, sony is clearly the strongest player in regards to first party offerings.

candystop3060d ago (Edited 3058d ago )

As much as I love Xbox there literally are no more exclusives! MS is to blame not Xbox fans. Once people understand Xbox and PC are now one eco system, things will possibly be easier to digest.

No on ever said Sony's lineup wasn't impressive or the current best. Hopefully this comment was for MS because fans know we want exclusives. Maybe things change with Scorpio but will see.

@GtR35olution
Well the difference is that Sony has ps exclusive(that only appear on ps like uncharted 4) as well as console exclusive(games that appear on PC but not on other console like nier) but xbox has only console exclusive.
Although I too consider exclusives when it is exclusive to only one platform but nowadays it looks like a new marketting term "console exclusive" has mixed up the defition of exclusive among gamers.

bouzebbal3059d ago (Edited 3059d ago )

PlayStation
Nintendo

first xbox console not a single exclusive is interesting.
i bought OG xbox for Panzer Dragoon, DOA3, Ninja Gaiden, Crazy Taxi 3 and Jet Set Radio Future.
i have xbox 360 for Lost Odyssey, The Last Remnant, Blue Dragon and DOA4.

Sony is really the absolute king of exclusives. The variety means so much to me.

Why o why3059d ago

Woh bro............Zero spin...good on ya

Lets hope MS are slyly holding back for the scorpio. Slight kick in the teeth for x1og owners but something has to change somewhere especially when the competition are using a more conventional model in regards to exclusives. Time will tell but their studio acquisitions and studio management needs massive improvements if they want to compete.

@Why oh Why. Thank you. I think you were one of the few to notice!

Hasn't this always been the case??? PlayStation does not mess around in the exclusives department!!

Bathyj3060d ago (Edited 3060d ago )

Well there you have it. Even a stopped clock is right twice a day. Hes either stating the obvious or way off the mark.

Congratulations Pachter , thats one in a row for you.

medman3060d ago (Edited 3060d ago )

@bathyj
Twice a day? You're giving him too much credit.

XanderZane3059d ago

Patcher loves to state the obviously. It's the only way he can be right.

starchild3059d ago

I feel like the only time Pachter is right is when he is saying something that is blatantly obvious to almost everyone. Otherwise he usually gets it wrong.

Bathyj3059d ago

Ha Starchild, I know this will mean nothing to you but I got that line "thats one in a row for you" from the show Deadwood and what you said reminded me of another quote.

SWEARENGEN -Do not repeat back to me what I just said in different f-----g words.

Not having a go at you, just enjoying the coincidence. :) And really like Deadwood

trooper_3059d ago

Way to state the obvious Pachter. In other news, water is wet!

IamTylerDurden13059d ago

Especially with these games all getting good reviews thus far. Gravity Rush 2, KH 2.8, Yakuza 0, Tales of Berseria, and now Nioh is getting the best reviews out of any of them. PlayStation is dominating in games and content, not hype.

Deadpooled3059d ago

probably the clown saw his reputation in tatters after all the wild predictions over the years and now he's stating the bleeding obvious, thinking it would get him the reputation back. Fortunately, the 'predictions' are way too obvious and he still has that well deserved tattered reputation.

True, they have pretty different audiences..and some People just have both at home or a PS and a PC that emulates more or less everything from Nintendo.

Knightofelemia11h ago

Xbox hasn't been a competitor since the XB360. Last generation and this generation Sony has been running circles around Xbox. As for Sony vs Nintendo Sony runs circles yes but I don't really see Nintendo as competition. Nintendo does their own thing and it works.

Details are important. Console sales yes. Overall games Xbox seems to be doing fairly well in that department.

Console wars are over.

Eventually, everyone else will catch up to this fact.

attilayavuzer9h ago(Edited 9h ago)

I think it's all PS fans have left at this point. Console wars were always a competition for fourth place behind Nintendo, PC and mobile. If Xbox evaporates into a hybrid virtual platform, then PS will be perennially left in last place.

Christopher9h ago

Strange, I recall all those FCC documents and witness testimonies saying the exact opposite... Guess Microsoft doesn't know what it's talking about?

Destiny108010h ago

microsoft wanted to crush sony into dust and they had the money to do it, but with such weak leadership it was always going to fail

Reaper22_9h ago

Had the money? They still have the money but the industry has changed since xbox 360. Microsoft is the number one publisher in gaming. I'd hardly call that failing.

IRetrouk8h ago(Edited 8h ago)

The industry hasn't changed though, just ms, Microsoft was the no1 publisher for a month in december 2024, the actual no1 for fy2024 was tencent if game sales are all that's being counted.

Profchaos8h ago

Money doesn't mean you'll be successful large corporations have entered and failed before like Nec

The score for the first Plants Vs Zombies is such great, iconic music that it has a timeless quality. Not quite the level of Minecraft, but wonderful in its own right.
