And how many of the games so far are exclusive to XB ONE?  Fewer than five.

 

Well they gotta (MS) support the PC more or Windows Store is never going to move from DOA.

There hasn't been one yet.

No Crackdown (yet) That's a little disappointing.

 

Edit - I'm now taking that list as gospel

MS have their Lair exclusive

It doesn't really matter, I thought everyone didn't like the idea of exclusives?   Hey, cross-buy and cross-play are both a bonus.

Seems it's less XB1 exclusives and more Xbox One / Windows 10 cross play exclusives. That's fine by me though.

Buying previously multiplatform games and locking them to one console is frowned upon.

 

Exclusives are essential to sell consoles.

If you're going to buy it on a console you'll buy it on a console, it's the same for multiplatform games to, I don't buy everything on the PC even if it's out for the PC as well.

This means Scorpio is going to get a nod at least.

My point exactly, George P.

 

Where you play (and on what) is going to be experience-driven - NOT platform-driven.

Crackdown and Halo Wars will be last, then Scorpio.

That's how i'm seeing it, and i'm sure Sony will be bringing this two. Consoles have just become one the ways you can access a game.

I'll take that bet!

By the way they didn't say Xbox and Windows exclusive for Dead Rising 4. Wonder if it's multiplatform?

Almost certainly. 3 came to PC.

State of Decay 2!

Nope, something else.

ah, my bad. It'll probably stay PC and X1 for the generation.

They didn't say "exclusive to Xbox and Windows 10" just "coming to Xbox and Windows 10".

[George P Global Moderator]

Halo Wars 2 now.

Looks like Crackdown is going to be MIA from E3
