"Streaming is not the same thing as playing locally."
Never said it was, but your right, they are not, streaming games results in a worse experience, bottom line is the game is playable on PC, the method is not the issue, the fact is both manufacturers games are playable on PC. Which method they prefer to use is up to them.

"Locking people away from being able to experience a game is exactly what an exclusive is. Forcing someone to buy my specific device on the day that I want them to buy it is what timed exclusives are designed to do. So we can dance around the context but his statements still fundamentally goes against the practices he and Microsoft engage in on a regular basis."
I think you have the companies mixed up, Microsoft are putting their exclusi...
@spudwhale
I never implied he cannot play the games on his PC, i stated :-
1) His PC may not be capable of playing the newest games.
2) He sounds like primarily a console gamer.
You know it's not as cut and dry as to state "because all games can be played on PC, he MUST buy a PS5!!!!"
or something along those lines.
Sony games can also be played on the PC, they are both in the same boat...
@potatoseal
"His gaming PC can play 100% of the Series X games, therfore he's getting a PS5."
Maybe he has another family member that wants to enjoy Microsoft's exclusives? In that case he would get a Series X. Your argument about "all games are on PC" is moot. There could be loads of reasons why he is torn between the consoles.
Maybe he wants the ease of just playing the xbox exclusives on the console in the...
@Sully
The only winners are CDPR, they are still getting your money lol.
If you think there is a price drop once this game is fixed, i emplore you to think again. The price is not dropping with the game being broken, so why would they drop it once it is fixed?
What is Microsoft pulling it from the store going to achieve?
As far as reviews go, the game is more stable on xbox platforms. Sony pulled it as it is crashing Playstation consoles.
@InUrFoxHole
That's like saying a Mclaren P1 car is "trash" because you can't drive it.
The same applies here, a game is not "trash" just because some people have issue with the content.
That is the day and age of films/gaming, if someone gets offended they strive to get the film/game banned or discredit it.
I'm just glad i'm a guy where absolutely nothing offends me, and on topic, can not wait to play this game.
They could but they didn't.
Just glad they are fixing the game quickly.
Oh look, the game is getting fixed, and quite quickly as well.
All those that got refunds will end up buying the game again in a few short weeks lol.
Yeah because i spend my time in most games, zooming into the distance to pick out the small details.
Chances are you can find things like this in nearly all games, distance objects are not fully designed or rendered, they are created to "look" real from far away, not close up.
You ever zoomed into a wall on a game and seen the pixelated wall? Same thing.
Article is a joke

"If you already knew this, then why this game of acting like Razzer quoted Phil out of context to misrepresent his position on 3rd party deals?"
Why the need to quote Phil Spencer at all in the 1st place? What was the intended purpose?
It was quite obvious an attempt to quote Phil out of context, which is exactly what Razzer did in the original comment. Phil and xbox want exclusivity (zenimax deal) Phil's per...
@RazzerRedux
"You don't say something is "completely counter to what gaming is about" on his "soapbox" when talking about exclusives and timed exclusives in such an emphatic way"
Razzer, he is not talking about exclusives timed or otherwise, read the articles, he is talking about GENERATIONAL EXCLUSIVITY, (i put this in bold because it is the most relevant words).
He is discussing games for instance, wh...
@sinspirit
Please read the entire article, he is only talking about generational exclusives, not 3rd party, not 1st party, any game where you have to buy a new console to play, that is what he is saying he is not a fan off.
That is why xbox's strategy and main focus is allowing XBOX gamers the freedom to play wherever they want to play, absolutely nothing to do with Playstation or Xbox exclusives, timed/paid/full/part or otherwise.
...
That is the funniest thing i have seen all day. lmao.
Really well put together, could even pass as a legitimate trailer lol.
I see pedestrians in gameplay, i also see AI.
Microsoft still get the sub money from gamepass, and a lot more gamers who would not have otherwise played/purchased flight simulator, now have the chance to do so.
Gamepass is a great moneymaker for Microsoft and other dev's, that is why 3rd party are starting to jump in.
Won't stop me preordering games. (But to be honest i rarely preorder anymore unless it is a must have franchise).
Sigh
Razzer razzer, we are talking PAID exclusive deals, not a developers choice to only release their project on one platform.
Microsoft have not paid for those games you listed, you my friend, are clearly the one who is blind and misinformed.
Scorn - developer choice

It's ok to own a PC and an xbox you know.
I have a PC, xbox 360, One X, Series X, PS4.
Shall i just sell all my consoles and just use my PC with gamepass and PSnow?
