20 Bethesda Games from the World’s Most Iconic Franchises Available in Xbox Game Pass Tomorrow

Xbox News Wire:

We’ve always been fans, but now we’re family As we shared earlier this week, we’ve officially welcomed ZeniMax Media and Bethesda to the Xbox family, adding even more incredible talent, creative diversity, and beloved gaming franchises to an already stacked Xbox lineup.

[Paytaa]

Phil Spencer confirms in the Bethesda roundtable that all future Bethesda titles that do not have pre-existing contractual obligations will only arrive to platforms fostering Xbox Game Pass.

https://www.youtube.com/wat... roughly 10min in.

[LOGICWINS]

Anyone who thought otherwise was living in denial. The “some” in that Xbox Wire article was a PR tactic. Outright announcing that all FUTURE Bethesda titles will be on Xbox, Xcloud, and PC only would have taken the steam out of future exclusivity announcements.

[AngelicIceDiamond]

Starfield confirmed exclusive if that's the case.

[LOGICWINS]

@AngelicIceDiamond Thing is, we don’t know which games are under contractual obligation. I would assume both Starfield and Indiana Jones are Xbox/PC exclusives, but we can’t say for sure. What we do know is that the days of new Bethesda games appearing on PlayStation are numbered.

[Orchard]

Yep... so if you bring gamepass to your platform, you get Zenimax games. Otherwise, they are Xbox/PC exclusive.

Exact timestamp: https://www.youtube.com/wat...

[Orchard]

@Deep_Space_One I wouldn't say most people are cheering it on - personally, I think exclusivity all-up is bad because:

1. I don't need to justify/self-validate my purchase of a game console that way, there's plenty of good content from 3rd parties.
2. It just means people miss out on good IP's - not everyone can afford to buy all 3 consoles + a gaming PC
3. It may even help kill off some IP's which could've had more success if they were on every platform

But there is a lot of interest in this topic, it's been an open question on peoples minds for 6+ months now - so people are happy to finally have somewhat of an answer.

[MadLad]

@deepspace

I don't even want to hear it after seeing the temper tantrum had on this site after Sony announced they're going to put more focus on the PC market.

[DaveZero]

Wow downvotes on actual fact, what a surprise.

[DJStotty]

@Deep_Space_One

"And of course all the unbiased xbox fanboys are cheering them on."

I thought all xbox games are available on PC? or did i miss something? Just get them on PC, everyone here prefers the PS5/PC combination, so this news affects no one right?

[Vits]

Good. Now we don't need to keep arguing over what the last statement meant.

Though I wouldn't read much into that "only for platforms with GP". As I don't see they actually creating version for PlayStation and Switch of the service. Other than the streaming version.

[--Onilink--]

I cant say I heard it the same way tbh, not only does he not say “only” on platforms with gamepass, but besides contractual obligations he mentions games with Legacy on other platforms, as the “exceptions”.

I think the best approach is to stop trying to read so much into simple statements and simply wait until those games are announced. There is nothing to gain by speculating

[Paytaa]

Legacy games meaning on-going GaaS games like FO76 and ESO and whatever potential DLC may drop for games that are already out.

The only game that may be an exception going forward is Indiana Jones since it's through Disney.

[--Onilink--]

@ Paytaa

He had already mentioned those games before and he didnt really said legacy games, he said games with legacy on other platforms. Its just as easy to interpret that how you said or as games with multiple entries on other platforms (like ES or Fallout).

Again, to me trying to come up with a definitive answer from such vague statements doesnt make much sense, its easier to wait. There is nothing to gain from speculating, otherwise people will just end up complaining again about what Phil Spencer said.

For me personally, since I have both consoles, I just dont care either way. And if someone only has a PS5, there isnt anything you can do anyway at this point. If ES comes to PS5, you play it, if it doesnt, you dont (or get a pc or xbox), simple as that

[Sciurus_vulgaris]

Sony and Nintendo will not allow Gamepass on their platforms, that I’m certain.

[FPS_D3TH]

Don’t be so certain. Willing to bet all services will be available on both the major console, Nintendo most definitely not but that’s a hardware issue more than anything. It’ll require a sub to both services and likely will cost a dollar or two more on the competitors side. Just wait... people said crossplay would never happen too

[DJStotty]

Sony definitely will not, allowing a direct competitor to PSNOW on their platform?

Got more chance platting water

[alb1899]

CataBOOOOMMMM!!!

[CaptainHenry916]

The best part with the Bethesda exclusives is that Sony will most likely answer with their own versions of the games that used to be released by Bethesda on playstation. I would like to see naughty dog get out of their comfort zone and make a fantasy RPG just like Guerilla Game's got out of their comfort zone. More games is a good thing. Microsoft is keeping Sony on their toes

[Father__Merrin]

He also mentioned in the same sentence aBout releasing on other platforms in future due to legecy reasons. Unless stated by Bethesda there is no cancellation of ps5 development

[Jin_Sakai]

Great to see Bethesda joining Xbox and Gamepass. This just makes the service even more compelling. AAA games are getting expensive at $70+ tax. Now I can play more games I likely couldn’t afford.

Will definitely be subscribing to Gamepass if I get a Series X. Especially considering Bethesda games will be on the service.

[DJStotty]

All it takes is for them to release 2 games a year across all the studios, and then gamepass pays for itself.

[BattleCat]

Like always, Ms is stealing and destroying the Gaming industry.
Thx to small fat guys like spencer, like the german guy 1940. Bethesda games, was for everybody. Thx small guy Phil.

[DJStotty]

Sir Phil to you...

[Dno]

We

[Rocosaurus]

Well, it's finally time to try out Doom 64. Couldn't afford it the on the N64, a long time ago when i was a broke teenager.

[giovonni]

Hopefully it aged well. I played it at a friends house one time, and it was pretty damn good.

[franwex]

It’s $5 now regular and it’s always on sale for $2.50.

That’s less than a take out meal. You didn’t have to wait this long. LOL!

[franwex]

It’s only $5 regularly and frequently $2.50.

That’s less than a fast food meal. LOL!

[Risky_24]

Great! Like my backlog isn't big enough they go and add more to it.

[x_xavier_x]

That's literally the only problem that I find with GamePass. There are too many games that I won't get to play due to time constraints

[badz149]

they want you to keep subscribing. that's literally the plan and how they plan to move forward

[Risky_24]

@badz149 Well as long as there is value in it for me and beneficial to many others it's a good plan.

@x_xavier_x That's exactly it. They added enhancements to some previous gen games which I haven't played yet that I've wanted to play so this makes it even tougher. It's a double edge sword in some ways.

[Sayai jin]

Well, there it is folks. People can stop speculating on future Bethesda games being exclusives. If you want to play them you'll need Xbox, game pass, and/or PC...aka MS ecosystem.

[RazzerRedux]

Or just buy it on Steam (not part of the MS ecosystem). That's what I'll do. Same as always.

[AngelicIceDiamond]

True, but MS owns all their IP so they'll still see that money even if you get it on steam.

[RazzerRedux]

@AngelicIceDiamond

Yes. Game publishers/corporations get money when someone buys their game regardless what platform it is on. You are stating the obvious.

[thesoftware730]

Lol, there you go again.

Thanks for sharing, look at your post man, nothing but objection, undercover flaming..I dont evennknow why you come into MS related threads anymore. You are becoming like a broken record, you come into MS related thread to state you wont be buying/using or supporting an xbox system/eco system...so weird man.

We know already, all you need is your PS5 and PC.

[thesoftware730]

@Razzer

So you will get them on gamepass and then buy them on Steam? Read you comment below. You are full of it and now I know you say anything to attemp to prove you nonsensical flame inducing a points 😂

Razzer:
"And yeah, I'm definitely looking forward to using Game Pass to rent those Bethesda game. Hopefully I'll still be able to take advantage of that $1 trick over and over again. lol."

And now here you go saying whatever to try and low-key flame.

Razzer:
Or just buy it on Steam (not part of the MS ecosystem). That's what I'll do. Same as always.

Which is it? Gonna get them on GP and then buy them on Steam? Double dipping? Your exposed bro.

[RazzerRedux]

@thesoftware730

There you go again. Triggered because I pointed out a fact. Not once did I say I won't use MS ecosystems. I said I have no need for Xbox console. And I didn't come into this thread stating either so you can stop making shit up. That's hard for you, I know, but try.

"Which is it? Gonna get them on GP and then buy them on Steam? Double dipping? Your exposed bro."

Look at you. You being triggered has you trying to invent a controversy when there is none.

Rent vs Buy

I rent on Game Pass. I buy on Steam. How is that hard to understand? So yeah, I very well may do both. Pay $1 to rent on Game Pass and determine if I want to buy it on Steam. If you dig through my post history a little more you'll find I've explicitly stated that I will only stay on a subscription for a month at a time. I pointed that out last fall when I subscribed to Ubisoft+. I played two games: Watch Dogs Legion and Assassin's Creed: Valhalla. Guess what? I ended up buying AC:V. Somehow that is shocking to you? lol

So is that it? That's your big "gotcha" that you got so excited about after digging through my post history that you just had to come back and post again? So disappointing.

You almost had me believing all your bullshit about not taking this stuff seriously and never being triggered. If anyone has been exposed, it is you. I am parked in your head, dude.

[DJStotty]

Ohhhh, this one will be mad today, and let everyone know this changed nothing for him and he will play on PC lmao.

Me personally thought it was great news and will be downloading doom 3 and doom 64 when i get home to run through the games again.

Greatness has arrived

[thesoftware730]

HAHA, your full of it.

like I said, nothing to share just undercover flaming. That whole post you wrote didn't fix any of your BS nonsense. You are caught man, change the narrative all you want, look at old post blah blah...your caught man...

Rent and Buy lmao, its all Bethesda games, they will all be there and you probably wont be able to carry over progress...once again you can fool your fellow, all we need is PC and PS5 buddies..but your exposed bro.

You can keep up the triggered narrative, I'm just not gonna let your broken record BS go unchecked in every Xbox article, nothing ever positive.

DJstotty sees your nonsense as well...you are a one trick pony.

Go ahead and keep posting, nobody believes you.

[RazzerRedux]

@DJStotty

"let everyone know this changed nothing for him and he will play on PC"

It is a factual statement. Probably the best news from MS the past couple of years, for me, was that all their games are coming to Steam. Music to my ears. Almost as much as the Sony games coming to Steam. So no, nothing has changed for me and others who game primarily on PC. In fact, things just keep getting better and better.

@chefricco

Oh I know quite a few people who are "tired" of me. Several of them are right here. But you are being absurd pretending you speak for "everyone". And if pointing out silly statements like that make me come off as a "know it all" then I guess you'll have to get over it.

"You come off as a know it all and pretend to be non biased when you clearly are not."

I am very biased. I've never said otherwise. So is everyone.

@thesoftware730

"HAHA, your full of it."

I see you came in triggered again.

There was nothing for me to fix. I was attempting to educate you in the dynamics of how renting and buying games work in tandem. But you are too triggered to think clearly. Yes, please scream it out to the world that you exposed me for saying that I will rent games from Game Pass and buy games from Steam. lol.....brilliant.

"You can keep up the triggered narrative, I'm just not gonna let your broken record BS go unchecked in every Xbox article, nothing ever positive."

Every article about a game from Xbox Game Studios or Zenimax is just as much a PC article as it is an Xbox article. So you can 'check' me all you want. You'll just keep making yourself look silly especially considering I trigger you so easily.

[Sayai jin]

Still the same and if you are using Windows it is part of their ecosystem. MS ip will profit MS no matter where you buy it.

What's your OS?

I will buy a good amount on Steam for my rigs, but I will use game pass.

@Angelic, many know this, but will make the same statement. Many will now have PCs that can or will run these games.

[RazzerRedux]

"Still the same and if you are using Windows it is part of their ecosystem."

An ecosystem has its own transactions. Steam transactions do not go through the Microsoft ecosystem. That is fact. Microsoft on Steam is the same as Sony or Ubisoft or any other publisher on Steam. None of those ecosystems are present in Steam. That is also fact.

"MS ip will profit MS no matter where you buy it."

Obviously. I never said otherwise.

"What's your OS?"

Windows 10 and yet every single Steam transaction entirely bypasses Windows and Microsoft unless it is a MS game and then they pay Steam 30%. Let that sink in. How are we still in Microsoft's ecosystem when they are paying a third party to sell their game? That's a new one in the world of ecosystems.

[Jericho1337]

What a lineup of games. Not played Prey before so might give that a go.

[MadLad]

Was easily my favorite game of 2017. When of the best immersive sims released in a long time.

[x_xavier_x]

I only played a few hours of Prey. I wasn't really feeling it. Do you think it's worth my time to revisit the game?

[ScootaKuH]

I preferred the original Prey. The newer reboot didn't feel like Prey at all. I didn't mind it but I found it lacked something, I just can't quite put my finger on what that was

[Sephiroushin]

Its one of the few selected games I like from Bathesda or even fps, try it!

[KillaJamm]

Honestly I found it to be a hidden gem if you stick with it. I tried it when it first came out and only put in a few hours and got bored. Then like a year or 2 later I got it with all the DLC for like £8 because all the positive reviews for the Moon crash expansion. For some reason it just clicked this time as I kept getting further into it, plus the ending was dope imo.

[thesoftware730]

I will definitely play the dishonored games and I never fully played The Evil Within, gonna check it out again.

Why no Evil Within 2?

[Tedakin]

That's the main game I wanted.... Maybe someday..............

[MadLad]

Yeah. Already own the original Evil Within and DLC. Was hoping for the sequel, but hey. Might get added a little down the line.

[MadLad]

I own most of these already, but never got to play the Old Blood expansion for Wolfenstein, nor Dishonored 2, so those are definitely getting installed.

[Battlestar23]

Awesome lineup. We Xbox gamers get all this and Sony gamers get a glorified overpriced DLC and a 13 year old remake for the players right.

[Dude Dutch]

Just pathetic. Grow up

[anubusgold]

On this site really? See all the attacks on the xbox area at all times by the sony fanboys.

[badz149]

@Battlestar

maybe I missed the announcement of MS giving these games for free??

if not, what are you talking about? you're still paying for the service. good for you if you enjoy old ass games on next-gen consoles. with MS, you're gonna feel right at home.

[CYALTR]

Ah, come on...take the high road brother!!

[Charlieboy333]

Still doesn't make a dent in Playstation's armour. Any single one of the upcoming ( and beyond ) PS exclusives will wipe the floor with the whole of Xbox's catalogue ( Bethesda games included ) both audio visually and as an amazing polished gameplay experience. So you're wetting your pants about Elder Scrolls 6 not coming to Playstation ? Well I wouldn't celebrate if I were you....because that just means that Sony will create a PS only exclusive title to compete from one of their god tier award winning studios and you better believe it will wipe the floor with the Old Scrolls and send Bethesda back to RPG school.

[Tacoboto]

Ratchet and Clank is so gonna make me forget Starfield and Elder Scrolls. Mhmmm

[MadLad]

I'd chill out on the salt.
Too much is bad for your health :^)

[King_Noctis]

“ Any single one of the upcoming ( and beyond ) PS exclusives will wipe the floor with the whole of Xbox's catalogue”

You’re forgetting that MS now owns devs like Playgroud Games, Ninja Theory, Obsidian, and the entire Bethesda studios.

“ it will wipe the floor with the Old Scrolls and send Bethesda back to RPG school.”

Which award-winning RPG have Sony created recently?

[badz149]

@King_Noctis

"You’re forgetting that MS now owns devs like Playgroud Games, Ninja Theory, Obsidian, and the entire Bethesda studios."

and they have nothing to show as of now aside from their old games which are now playable on the SS and SX. yay!? these games are playable on PS5 too, you know. these games being on GP don't change the fact that they are still the same game on both platforms.

can we please move on and talk about next-gen games, already? these talk about old games are pathetic and getting very boring tbh! never before has a new gen of consoles being marketed using old games like this one! never before has a new gen marketed as "playing your old games better"! never before has a new gen marketing being dominated by old games instead of next-gen games! and never before has a new gen marketed using a subscription service like GP! and the new low for MS, no new next-gen games launched with their next-gen consoles!

can we please move on from last gens? no?

[King_Noctis]

“ and they have nothing to show as of now aside from their old games which are now playable on the SS and SX. yay!?”

Aren’t Playground Games developing Forza Horizon 5 and Fable, Ninja Theory developing Hellblade 2 and Project Mira, Obsidian developing Awoved and Outer World DLCs, and Bethesda developing games like Starfield and Elder Scroll 6? Not to mention The Initiative which is developing Perfect Dark, World’s Edge developing AoE 4, Turn10 developing new Forza, and Undead Lab developing State of Decay 3. Those aren’t new games or contents? Lol what?

“ can we please move on and talk about next-gen games, already?”

Aren’t those game that I had listed above either cross-gen or available only on next gen? And if you strictly want next-gen only game, isn’t The Medium had only just launched?

[Lenrulesdaworld]

Bitter I see

[franwex]

I have not read a single comment above you about anyone celebrating elder scrolls 6 NOT coming to PS5.

It’s mostly people going-oh cool. I guess I’ll try out this game I never got around trying on Game Pass.

Microsoft is trying to get more subs. That’s it.

[ZombieGamerMan]

Fuck that means if I want The Evil Within 3 & future Doom games I have to buy it on steam, fuck you MS you god damn buttholes

[AngelicIceDiamond]

Hey man the spider man games were on every platform for the past 30 years now Sony bought the IP and insomniac. Those games will never appear on Xbox or Nintendo platforms. Yeah MS bought out a bunch ip's while sony bought one but Spider-Man has more name value than most of bethesda games anyway so it's all in the same vein. It's so fierce Sony paid to keep Spiderman off Xbox. Sony doesn't have the financial muscle to pull off a bethesda so MS swooped in and grabbed them up. We can't control what these businesses its more fierce than ever. That's why it's best to buy both period.

It's just best to try and get both that's what it comes down to.

[P_Bomb]

“ Hey man the spider man games were on every platform for the past 30 years”

Some games were exclusive to PS1, GBA, 32X, Nintendo hardware, Sega hardware, Arcade. Others were timed. It happens.

[PraxxtorCruel]

Sony does not own the IP. They own the movie rights and that's how far it goes. Disney owns Spiderman and it's on loan to Sony.

[Flewid638]

If only I was actually interested in Bethesda games.

I have a PC too but...nothing for me sadly.

[Monkeysmarts]

Not gonna lie, MS picking up Zenimax/Bethesda is the move that finally motivated me to get a proper gaming PC like I have wanted for a long time now. PS5 and a RTX 3070, best of both worlds. This is the way.

[QSPR]

I think personally GP is good business for all platforms and PC for Microsoft and other company's. they can call it exclusive on GP but, in all platforms. I don't do GP because I don't have much time to play all those games in 1 or 2 months and make my money worth it.

[mcstorm]

The funny thing is Microsoft have done things like this before. Zune pass was one of if not the 1st music subscription service that offered most gores of music and bads, let you keep 10 songs a month and also share songs with other people.

As usual with Microsoft they did not shout about it and others came along and grew bigger and were more popular to.

That said gamepass seems to be something they are shouting about and giving everyone a reason to get it.

Xbox, pc and cloud. Of xcloud comes to tvs, tables and more and is shown off in the right way it could be massive especially with gamepass.

[cheetah]

In all honesty, I don’t think I really loved any of those games.

[Father__Merrin]

All of the 20 are old games possibly Prey is a little newer with Doom and Rage which was free on EGS

[YourMommySpoils]

Wow, so all those billions just to put 20 games onto Game Pass. Nice hahaha

[Orchard]

Fixed that for you: "so all those billions for some of the largest IP's in the industry as exclusives"

Pretty sure they bought them for future games, not just past games... and I believe Bethesda will make more games in the future...

[YourMommySpoils]

lol! You sure came down quite a bit to read this comment. XD

[Orchard]

I have it sorted by most recent :)

[MadLad]

Back catalogue, and then the new titles they'll develop because, you know, they're development studios. That's kind of what they do.

Stay salty and defensive though, buddy :^)

[Pickledpepper]

Pocket change for MS LOL

[JayRyu]

It's official, ID Tech in Halo infinite!

[AuraAbjure]

dooood 😇 Now we just gotta get 343 i. back in the office! COMUSAV is close to obtaining clinical evidence about a simple ass cure for all viral infections.

[AuraAbjure]

Just bought Rage 2. Will take a closer look at game pass for PC.

[Azraeia]

All these and future Bethesda games (excluding any with a pre-existing contract) being added to the pass is massive, if the addition of EA titles didn't interest you then this has to. Unbelievable value for 10.99 a month including Gold.

[EasilyTheBest]

This reminds me of when Sega was bringing out the Sega Saturn up against the much bigger Sony with the PlayStation. Sony did really well to win & Sega then brought out their last console the Dream cast. It couldn't complete against the hype for the PlayStation 2. Sega didn't have the money Sony had. Sony could use the money from all their other divisions to get exclusive games & get the PlayStation 1 & 2 to become really successful.
Microsoft vs Sony is similar in quite a few ways its just this time its Microsoft thats the 10 ton gorilla

[DaveZero]

Sony would now be wise to allow Gamepass the service in its console, so that playstation Owners can continue to enjoy Zenimax/Bethesda games.

It would be the best move for Sony to support the people who have invested in a ps5 and not make them feel they have to sell a console to just play those games. Sure there will be alot that never touch those games but there will also be an heck of a player base who won't be amused by this news and some may even think about selling a playstation console down the line for an Xbox. Unless your an Owner of both an Xbox and playstation your going to be at a point of decision making if enjoy those games.

I think Sony drew the battle lines last Gen and they woke a sleeping Dragon in MS who has now answered back.

[ScootaKuH]

I own a PS5 and PC. No need for Xbox at all.

Plus, as good as some Bethesda games are, they're not good enough for me to buy a system just to play them, so if I didn't already have a PC I wouldn't rush out and buy an Xbox just for Bethesda games. I can take or leave them.

[2moda5gamer]

This is a massive boost to Xbox, and should level the playfield a fair bit. If Playstation can manage to hold on to even close of an advantage as last gen I still see these games potentially moving over - but only if those number stay as abysmal as they were - which is really hard to see happening now.

[PraxxtorCruel]

The only way you'll see these upcoming MS exclusives coming to Playstation is if Sony accepts Game Pass. But i do agree that now both companies will be fierce competition for one another. Not like last generation where Sony sailed to victory. Sony have been dominating for the last 10 years while Xbox made mistakes one after another. Even with this acquisition Sony still leads the market but will they have the lead they had with the XB1 vs PS4 generation? No way.

[Father__Merrin]

The weekly sales are 2.1 in favour of ps5 that's including the series s once this launch rush is over it will go 3.1 or mabey even 4.1

[MadLad]

You honestly believe there's going to be a larger disparity in sales between this gen and last gen?
With MS addressing all the issues Xbox One faced like weak hardware and lack of 1st party content? Now being home to the most popular games subscription service had, offering players 1st party releases day one, from many award winning studios?

.... okay then. Get back to me at the end of the generation and let me know how that worked out lol.

[Father__Merrin]

@Tedcruz...deal 🤝

[waverider]

No it wont. Anyone that thinks that, will have a sad surprise. No Bethesda game is top of any chart. Only games like COD, FIFA or GTA can have those kind of impact. Those are the games most pllayed by console gamers and none of Bethesda fall into that category. Only those kind of games could make somebody chose Microosfoft and even those. Just look at nintendo... The number will keep growing even more. The amount of hype worldwide for the PS5 is much higher then Xbox. The PS5 is selling more then the PS4 with Covid...

[Aussiesummer]

This is why I bought both.

[Pickledpepper]

Me to, I'm getting my ps5 next week. Been trying for ages. So glad I pre ordered the xbox series x, just wish I did the same for the ps5

[sourOG]

People in the comments talking about anti-trust stuff. Governments just gave the “ok”, that’s what this whole thing was about lol. It sucks Bethesda games won’t be on non Microsoft platforms but acting like Sony can’t compete without Bethesda is just silly. There is nothing anti-competitive about it. They paid a ridiculous amount of money for that privilege. You can be salty but it is what it is. Let’s not pretend they aren’t playing by the rules with the anti-trust talk.

[anubusgold]

Microsoft took a 1 mill a day fine from the US government for a whole year and still made billions and didnt even feel it lol.

[jjb1981]

I've already played or own all these games. Welp, nothing for me to see here.

[franwex]

That’s cool.

Now when does Starfield come out?

[ARESWARLORD]

Awesome 👍

[philm87]

As a PS5 owner I think Doom would be the one I'd miss the most if it went exclusive to Xbox/PC. Also really intrigued to see what Starfield will be like.

[DJStotty]

Some great info from the stream, Phil reaffirmed that they will honour existing contracts, 20 Bethesda games on gamepass today, future and unnanounced games on gamepass Day 1.

And the most important of all, allowing all of Zenimax studios to collaborate across the board with the coalition/343 etc, whilst allowing the studios the freedom to develop whatever games they want.

Great news all around, for xbox and other platforms alike.

[Bender6502]

For ages now all we've heard is bickering about will they or won't they be exclusive to Xbox eco system -Bethesda games that is. Now that's decided, it's will we or won't we be buying them. Firstly, let me say outright I'm not in favour of exclusives.Having said that, I find it slightly hypocritical that certain gamer's of a certain persuasion are now claiming that they will NEVER play anything that has MS connections. Yet for an eternity, all they have babbled about is the exclusives on their platform of choice! In my country there's a saying that goes
' your'e cutting off your nose to spite your face '. In the end not buying great games because of the platform really only hurts you as a gamer, not MS. If you can get a great deal on game pass then play the damn games!

[Imortus_san]

Nice, now go and double those frame rates for next gen.

[Wrex369]

Phil turning it around folks
