    Console exclusives are anti consumer and it should be illegal for console makers to offer any incentive to developers – including studios they own – to make a game exclusive.

    Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk

        I think developers could still make exclusives, but consoles couldn’t buy up exclusive rights like that. At least that’s how I interpreted the other comment.

      Every time we ship a game on PlayStation… Sony captures 30 percent of the revenue that we do on their platform and then they use that money among other revenue that they have to do things to try to reduce Xbox’s survival on the market.

      I dunno how to feel about agreeing with Phil Spencer about something but this seems like a pretty good point
