So other than Sea of Thieves, which one of those is a GaaS game?
he said two smaller games, and two service games.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
It's amazing that they let a snowball grow so much when only for this.
Taking so long has only unnecessarily damaged the brand's image and created insecurity among its users.
In the end it ended up being what was expected, no bomb, certainly not the announcement of its disappearance
Will more XBOX games besides those 4 come out on PS and Switch? That's for sure, since with Bethesda and Activision many Studios will release games that will only be profitable if they are released on multiple platforms. In fact that already happens.
But it is clear that the day when everything is launched on PS is not close and nor is it that it will be launched on day one.
The disappearance of XBOX consoles is not close either. There is going to be another generation of XBOX and in fact it sounds like it is going to be "traditional"(It's up to them if they think it's the best decision)
He has also left clues that new hardware will be announced at the end of the year (Xbox Handlead?, XSX slim?, XSPro?) and that in June there will be a Conference with big game announcements.....
In short, all this did not require waiting a week and letting Troy burn.

Grounded. I believe he mentioned something about "community-driven" and that game was an Early Access multiplayer survival game which was updated for several years

I'm warming up to it. I think the fistfights will be much more strategic and involved in first person much like this game:
The former Starbreeze devs at Machine Games have had years to think about how to improve on this.

The first 4 of many.
Hellblade 2 on PS5. Maybe PS6.

First person exploration, puzzle solving and platforming ought to be pretty good. I don't expect them to go crazy like Doom Eternal but still.

They open Pandora's box and think they can get away tricking the faithful other games wont be ported.

Not saying which games was a mistake. People will keep speculating.

Ah yes…the soft break in period like Xbox is just beginning to groom Xbots. I’m telling you this is a lead in to softening the blow of full scale multi platform for Microsoft. Screenshot and/or bookmark it or you want. But I guarantee you by the end of 2024, that’s exactly where we will be going. Next will be Starfield by the end of spring.

Maybe state of decay? Makes sense as it’s a GAAS game by nature.

Anyone thinking they will just stop at these 4 is insane lol.

This quote right here is business talk and I can’t believe people are legitimately not seeing what he is saying right here

Exactly as expected.how was the show today?
I take it you completely missed the part where they said more games will come, but in different words?

This is just the first rub on the nipple. Can’t be smooth entry without foreplay first.

Imagine thinking you're winning while your brand deities are porting games to the rival brand you hate.how was the show today?
Could've at least rounded it up to 5 and done a PS5 native port of Psychonauts 2.

But I don't want to create a false expectation on those other platforms that this is somehow the first four to get over the dam and then the dam's going to open and that everything else is coming. that's not the plan today.
The least convincing thing I’ve ever heard come out of Phil’s mouth.

He was smoking that copium during the event…there’s gonna be a lot of people picking parts that they wanted to hear without listening to everything.

Now they be like:how was the show today?
They won’t be getting any of the big hitters, and that makes sense. Those are for selling Xboxes and game pass subs.
That said. I welcome PS gamers too, sea of theives…. Join in. You can finally stop hating on the game. Personally I’ll sink the lot of you at sea, with my crew. Looking forward to that.

I have no horse in this race, I just look at who the majority of fanboys are somewhere and call them out.

So laughable that people here really believe this isn’t the beginning of the end for Xbox exclusives. I wish I could turn on blinders like that.

Same. Much more people will also get to experience it now thanks to Microsoft. Either day 1 on xbox and PC or wait a year for PS. Everyone is happy!

Microsoft: four Xbox-exclusive games are coming to PS5 and Nintendo Switch
Microsoft is starting out small but has big ambitions.www.theverge.com
https://twitter.com/tomwarren
Xbox chief Phil Spencer doesn't rule out Starfield and Indiana Jones coming to PS5. "I don't think we should as an industry ever rule out a game going to any other platform.
Please Tom dont lie i have seen the podcast they refused to tell what does four games are..you are just making things up....and between the lines they will be more games coming to Playstation but talked about 4 to soften the blow. It was standard PR fluf...Phil and Booty i dont believe you guys....

That The Verge interview after what Phil said in podcast is all you need to know about the science of doublespeak.
Everything will be on other platforms. eventually.

Might be possible too. I can also see that both were created on Unreal Engine 4 so porting them probably wouldn't be that challenging

I mean Phil himself is basically saying that, but you wouldn’t know it from the fanboys on here crowing like it’s confirmed they’ll stay exclusive and everyone who believes otherwise should be ashamed of their thoughts & deeds

"That's not the plan today"
"Today" is key here. He basically says that they might do it if things get even worse.
Which will happen.

They were speaking the truth. Grounded is game of the year 3 years in a row.
Indiana Jones, Starfield etc. Literally had one moments after the podcast aired: "I understand that Microsoft has also previously been weighing up the idea of bringing Gears of War, Microsoft Flight Simulator, and even the next Doom game to rival platforms"
"But it might come one day so it's not made up!"
Then I'd like to leak that Blinx: The Time Sweeper is coming to Sonys platform (you heard it here first)

I’m about to start watching it. Just gauging the comment in here for a bit first, while my lasagne bakes.
