That is just bad faith and you know it. Do you honestly believe that god of war and uncharted are from the same genre ?
Driveclub little big planet too ? Gran turismo is 3rd person camera ? Dreams too ? Resogun ? You either miss all the games that don't fit your narrative or twist so hard that it is basically lying. How about VR ?

Honestly, exclusives give a consumer an incentive to buy a console. But once you own a console, they provide no tangible benefit. Just the psychological benefit of affirming you made the right choice. Launching games into Game Pass, however, provides tangible benefits. So what I'm saying is, I'm more excited for Back 4 Blood, Hades, Darktide, and D&D Dark Alliance launching into Game Pass then I would be if they were exclusives but not launching into Game Pass.
Game Pass > Exclusives
Game Pass > Exclusives

It's so far away at this point we are going to be hitting the next gen of consoles it seems like before it even hits. Not really going to be a factor for awhile.
Exclusives don't give you a tangible benefit? How about the experience of playing the game? That's the benefit.
There is so much bizarre language and promoting of GP around here, it feels like straight up astroturfing at times. Now we have people saying actual exclusive games don't confer any benefits to console owners, but a game sub does. Yeah that makes tons of sense.

I've no doubt I'll own a PS5 and XSX this gen...but I'm not gonna lie,seeing Arkane's first game under MS be an open world 4 player co-op game has knocked my confidence a bit.I do need a good amount of games on a system if I am gonna invest in it so I hope they don't lean too hard into multiplayer/co-op with their new studios or it will make an investment in Xbox something I'll have to give a bit more thought about.....they do have a lot of rpg's lined up though so if they deliver with those I'm sure I'll get a lot of use out of an XSX overall this gen.

Yeah... but what about this year. I see a lot of 2023/2024/2025 games.

So your definition of "diversity" is ....
1st person?
Those games are all very different BTW.
I've also never in my life heard the term 3rdPersonStation.
I hope Xbox can get back to it's glory days, sure. It really felt like something amazing and new when the OG Xbox hit. And I'm sure most around here remember the Wii60 duo.
...you probably fell asleep in the last 12 months ... Xbox has twice the size of Sony's first party studios. and many of these are highly acclaimed studios. Sony is at a distinct disadvantage when it comes to first party studios. in addition ... unfortunately they are fixated on third person action games .... leaving out practically any other genre

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
And this year's E3 conference was absolutely littered with this kind of stuff, most of it coming to Xbox.

You're right. Don't worry, I'm sure we will soon have a single thread for all positive Xbox news.

My personal predictions of which of these games I may have a nascent interest in. Bold for genuine interest.
PC Only... AoE4 could do SO MUCH WRONG to the world, or it could gift so much right to new generations..
Your psychonauts fenagling leaves a sour taste
I'm not sure what '360 era' means, I guess you mean them leading the ill-judged and hard-to-develop-for Playstation 3 for the first, like, 70% of the generation... I don't see that happening here

I'll take that bet. It's interesting to see how so many DONT see what's taking place. Microsoft is going to be a huge disruptor this gen. The drought is officially over. It's only going to get bigger and better from here. Sony won't be the same after this gen. The beast is finally out of it's cage. Even Satya came out to confirm. That's a much bigger deal than many want to admit. Plus they aren't finished acquiring studios. There are more coming. Sony is going to do well. I'll give them that. But Microsoft will be right there with them. No doubt this will be one of the most interesting generations in recent memory. You can quote me on that.

Does someone pay you to say hammy lines like that?
Where can I find this Ministry of Drought Measurement?

Not even close. Doesn't have any exclusive or many Japanese rpgs, fighters, or action games. When I see a lost odyssey 2 I'll believe I'll agree.

Better than the Xbone doesn't mean its better than the Xbox 360.
The 360 had God-tier exclusives early on: Oblivion, Halo 3, Mass Effect, DOA4. The Series X is dramatically better hardware than the Xbone ever was, but Microsoft still needs to deliver the goods. Gears Tactics has been my favourite exclusive of theirs, and that launched Day 1 with the console. Gamepass has kept me glued to my Series X, but I'd be lying if I said I felt like Microsoft had delivered real next-gen games. Say what you will about Jim Ryan, but PlayStation made sure they had exclusive games that showed people where their AUD$750.00 went.
I have no doubt Microsoft is building up to their great games... but we're rapidly closing in on the console's 12 month anniversary. In terms of first years... they're not doing great. Flight Simulator at 4k on a Series X is going to be astounding, Horizon 5 looks incredible, Halo Infinite may actually not be complete shit. But... I'm not going to count those chickens until they've hatched. Microsoft will be back to the Xbox 360 days when I look at my Series X games collection and think "These are some of the best games I've ever played, what a console!". And they've got a ways to go to get there.

Bro not eveyone likes JRPG's I myself Likes WRPG's more im a mans man and enjoy some mature RPG not kiddy stuff.
First person shooter is a genre.
3rd person action games are a genre.
Nice try, PS fan boy, but first person shooters play very different from those 3rd person action games and they are different genres.

You can pay me if you want.
That being said, it's pretty clear if you can read the tea leaves. It's hilarious how everyone is a shill when they speak on Sony not being the dominant force in the industry. You don't have to believe it. That's cool. Just remember I said so. I'll remind you, broski, if you don't

You aren't thinking clearly. Being able to play a game is not a benefit of exclusivity. Non-exclusive games play just as well. The tangible benefit of being able to play a game for free is far, far greater than the psychological benefit of knowing PlayStation players can't play a game. Maybe because I've always owned both consoles.
If Phil Spencer made me choose between Xbox putting all their 1st party games on PlayStation but continuing to launch them on Game Pass, or keeping them exclusive but discontinuing Game Pass, it would be a really easy choice.
