Spiderman and Wolverine, being Marvel games, make the most sense. I mean they should be on Switch already especially Spiderman since that character appeals to, and always has appealed to children.

What has hurt Xbox more than anything is their big boy tent pole IPs falling flat and being underwhelming

Spider-Man and Batman will always be the best superheros because they are the easiest to identify with and thus the easiest self insert.

Man it's been a rough ten years on that front. Remember Crackdown and the power of the cloud?

This wouldn't kill the Sony platform you still get to play your games on your box. Are you trying to say Sony releasing their games day 1 on xbox would somehow make Xbox market share x4? I don't see it at all. The same reason I've never had any issue if Sony fans got Xbox exclusives. The same way Sony going third party (they are) on PC hasn't impacted their ability to sell consoles.
I would rather a pool of another 50 million people available to play great games like Halo & Forza. The master chief collection dropping tomorrow on Sony would be great for online community of people who love games.

I would love the next Forza Horizon hit PS day one, get all the players in there

That would actually be hilarious, since it's basically a videogame about PlayStation, itself.
But, I would be upset. It would be terrible for PlayStation as a whole to put its games on the other consoles. It would tell me the brand was in serious trouble.
So, yes, I would be upset to see Sony first-party games having to go to its main competitors platform.

Jez doesn't even have accurate information about xbox, never mind playstation. He can't even understand that mlb and death stranding were not sonys decision. Sony didn't even publish the games for xbox. They had nothing to do with the xbox ports.

Missed opportunity for who? I played it on Series X and can confidently say it isn't much of a missed opportunity for PS gamers.

That started to happen precisely when Microsoft stopped focusing on the console as a console.
The downward trend started with Kinect. Then it carried forward into the "living room entertainment box" charge with the Xbox One. Then, it was PC ports. Then it was Gamepass. Now, it's porting to other consoles.
Simply by virtue of having to port them game to more than one machine, you're spending time, resources and energy trying to make the game applicable "everywhere". It's inherently watered down. We understood this once.
Similarly, I don't think that it's an accident that PC ports for 1st party PS games coincided with the VR distraction, the live service push that Sony had sworn off last gen as 3rd parties dove in, and a never before seen extended cross-gen period for 1st party releases? The results? An undeniably less exciting lineup, a messed up game pipeline where studios have wasted years, and games that no longer hit the cutting edge as they did just last gen.
The new NAUGHTY DOG game looks like a cross-gen game, and has almost no one enthusiastically excited for it. That would not happen if there was a top-down mandate that demanded their premiere studio make games that WILL hit, and WILL push the medium, graphics included. There isn't one, because Sony leadership does not feel compelled to make their console as attractive as possible.

's points, that's what I'm talking about here. I think that it is undeniable that the exclusivity or lack thereof of these games has and will change the nature and quality of them. Gamers are generally not poor to the point of not being able to buy more than one device. I do not believe that people who own Series X's or high end PCs "can't" play PS exclusives in the first place. They just don't want to buy a PS. We survived 8 gens understanding that not every device was going to get every game, and apparently still understand it with Nintendo.

Except he doesn't say that. So yes, he is wrong.But those were playstation console exclusive games until recently, he's not wrong.
Yes, it had a 2 year console exclusivity period. The issue is that the studio that made it has been dissolved, so not sure if anyone of the team is left to do the port, not that anyone really wants it in the first place.
He's huffing the copium.

Not sure I follow the argument.
Your quoted part specifically mentions (third party) in there itself too, clearly he's not talking about first party content, but paid third party exclusives.

He doesn't say console exclusive, he says PlayStation exclusive. Neither of those games are PlayStation exclusives.

Yes, as always some 3rd party timed console exclusives will end on Xbox as usual. Mostly indies."...sources suggest to me that even more unannounced and previously PlayStation-exclusive games are slated for Xbox in 2025 as well,"
More PlayStation exclusives are coming to Xbox in 2025, it's claimed

In the same way, some timed console exclusives from Switch, PC and Xbox will also get released on PS.

Precisely.
For the most part, its hard for these projects to not be profitable at launch; the MS deals were very, very lucrative, and they had to be in order to get some of these pubs remotely interested. In many cases, it wasn't just coming out of 3rd party GP budget, but also including marketing budget and exposure for the title, with specific digital ad campaigns being spun up for them that they wouldn't otherwise have.
However, we're nearing the end of this particular back catalog. Microsoft was still making moves very early this year, but so much drastically changed in a quarter-by-quarter cadence.

if you have 2 consoles, & one of them goes multiplat, which of the 2 consoles will then, by default, have the fewest games? &, understanding this, why would you buy that console?...
if you're in the console-selling business, this matters...

Ok, i get that.
But it's kind of an oxymoron statement, when talking about PS exclusives coming to Xbox, PC is kinda not part of the equation.

Xbox won't get 1st party but PS is getting Xbox's 1st Party lol.
It's PC & PS as the platforms to play in 2025 and moving forward.
I don't think Xbox will stop making a console because it's another way to play Gamepass, but I don't think they will directly compete with PlayStation next gen. That ship has sailed!

He should've said what you did then, console exclusive, but he didn't. He knows there's a difference.
I did have a chuckle at this quote
"according to reliable Xbox insider Jez Corden." -- Altchar.com
He's been anything but reliable. I don't doubt what he says in the article though, that third party owned stuff might be coming late in 2025. Maybe Wukong finally hits xbox as well.
He understood it during the court proceedings then conveniently forgot again.

The whole article is about the state of Xbox, the console. Kind of splitting hairs to focus on the lack of mentioning PC, as that's not relevant to the article.
We know what he means when he's talking about third party PS exclusives coming to Xbox.

PlayStation with Xbox's 1st party is the logical console to buy. Xbox knows they are out of the console competition and focused on alternative revenue streams. PS4 era was the rise of digital libraries and people stayed invested into that ecosystem going into PS5, there is no jumping ship back to Xbox. Unless PlayStation does something absolutely retarded, that's it for the Xbox console.

It's obvious what he is doing. he is spreading FUD. which is ironic because he cries about people spreading FUD about Xbox going multiplat and GP not being a sustainable business model.

It wouldve sold a couple mil easily. They're obviously going to do it regardless, so better to get the Christmas sales.

3rd party moneyhats are precisely what he's talking about. Things like Rise of the Ronin or some Final Fantasy titles. Silent Hill 2 Remake. Things of that nature.Did I miss something? Sony announced a previous exclusive as goingo to xbox recently?
If he's talking about 3rd party moneyhats, well duh, those have a time limit before going multi, how's that any news?
Not sure why anyone in here is entertaining the idea that an SIE published/owned title will be coming to Xbox. As of now, it isn't going to happen. That includes things like Spider-Man and Wolverine.

I hate people that gaslight others by saying 'exclusives are bad for the industry and you're not a real gamer for wanting games exclusive to your platform'. Exclusives are what make consoles unique and i love it personally because it gives you an incentive to buy a certain console. Exclusives have been around since gamings been around and they should never go away no matter how butthurt the people who miss out on them are. Buy a ps5 or switch if you want there exclusives because otherwise be quiet.

Exclusives are great because it takes advantage on the power of the specific console as the development and resources are focus on one platform. And it is a selling point for console to have great exclusives on business stand point.

Agree 100%. Exclusives drive console sales and exclusives do unique things with the hardware that multiplatform games simply don't do.
