What is the financial benefit of letting your trademark series release on another console?
More people will buy it.
>>724276772More buyers. Same as every Sony "exclusive" ending up on PC (ie. Xbox).
Not like keeping halo on Xbox has done them any good for the last 15 years.
>>724276772When your company has spent billions of dollars on studios and products and has yet to see a return, and your console is dead, and your Netflix of gaming is a failure, the financial benefit is that you might actually make a little bit of money.
>>724276772can't be any different to sega dying and allowing sonic games on nintendo consoles
only chance of xbox selling a 343 game is to market it to those who don't know better
>>724276772ask sony lmao since they love giving their games to pcCHADS
>>724276772pity bucks
>>724276772msoft already triples sonys annual revenue without having any exclusivesthey could retire the xbox franchise entirely and still outsell sony as a company and even buy them if they felt like it
>>724276772
It's funny how all these memes stay rent free in snoy's heads for years and years and they can't pull them out fast enough when it can apply to another game company
>>724276772FPS games belong on PC or in VR. Or on a console with a mouse plugged in.
MS is run by a bunch of dumb jeets and don't understand they would make more money if 50% of every Xbox owner bought the games instead on l of 1% of PS5 owners. There's no point in making a console if you're not going to do exclusives
Why restrict a good game. Why not be good enough to be portable. Why limit sales. The list continues.
>>724277583There's some poetic justice in Xbox dudebros learning to be better men.
>>724276772consoles fags are officially cuck, lmao
>>724276772Tick tock console fags.https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/28/video-game-exclusives-dying-playstation-plans-new-xbox-switch-ports-23766383/https://www.tomsguide.com/gaming/playstation/sony-wants-to-bring-playstation-exclusives-to-xbox-according-to-new-job-listing
>>724277385>pc cucks using their sloppy seconds
>>724278164Did anyone even play that Lego Horizons game? I didn't
Why is /v/ pro-exclusives? How does it benefit you if your friend with a playstation can't play a game while you can?>muh cuckyour game is not your wife
>>724278364I paid for the platform (hypothetical scenario since I don't waste money on consoleslop), I should be the one receiving the benefits, no my friend I paid for me not for him you dumbo
>>724276772White man has been here
>>724278164exclusives were always anti consumer cancer
>>724278497Denying someone else still doesn't help you in any way
>>724278364Multiplat shit is slopware that doesn't maximise each console's unique hardware specifications
>>724278497but you get no benefit. everyone else is penalised instead. plus you don't get to play the exclusives of other platforms
The funny part is this remake will be the introduction to Halo for a lot of people, and it seems awful so far.
>>724278364who needs consoles? just release poorfagplasticbox 69 and dumb every game on it at low graphics settings
>>724278828There's no unique hardware anymore you're stuck in the past
>>724276772>what is the financial benefit of selling more things to more peoplegee i wonder
>>724278164i wanna play astrobot but thats italso PORT BLOODBORNE TO PC FAGGOTS
>>724278820Having a competitive platform is usually desirable. As is staying in business. How can you say that when we’re watching an industry giant die in real time for that exact reason?
>>724277583someone please replace this with classic kratosplease please please
>>724278364I am highly anti-exclusive and I think every modern game should be compatible on every current platform for people to enjoy>B-but muh performance! M-muh technical specs!Music and Movies had one standard format that can be played on any DVD/CD player. Now anything with an internet connection and a decent screen can stream audio and video, or both, there is absolutely no excuse for this.
>>724276772Dunno, what is the benefit of releasing all your games on PC?
>>724279081You will barely recoup dev costs, let alone marketing if you only sell on one platform. You forgot what year we're in
>>724278364ye olde vidya industry:>console owner wants to attract people to their box>sells console at a loss to increase hardware value>pays devs big bux to make exclusives that'll attract people to their console>very important that the games are good, has to stand up to what your competitor is putting outmodern vidya industry:>console owner wants to attract people to their premium subscription service>sells console for profit>big projects take 10 years and 10 gorilion dollars to make>get devs to pump out remasters so they have SOME form of exclusive>nobody is directly competing anywaysthe old way was better because a lot of the good exclusives eventually stopped being exclusives anyways, and the ones that stayed exclusive would get competitors.
