Spider-Man is so exclusive that failed GaaS game Marvel's Avengers had Spider-Man playable exclusively on PlayStation.

That said, Spider-Man 1 and Miles Morales are on PC, and I presume Spider-Man 2 will show up eventually too.

Exclusives are weird because we went from the SNES and Sega generation being either one library or the other, and now exclusives are like, what, six games/series you can get on one and not the other? Like there's smaller exclusive third party titles but they aren't exactly gonna sway anybody.

I guess for some people one of those six games is, like, the game they really really want to play. If none are tho then the idea of exclusives becomes kind of pointless.

Anyway, just checking in to verify that Xbox died and Phil Spencer pissed on the logo representating the grave and when can I expect the bricking update

Edit: also exclusives seems like a weird term in general now because you have to ignore PC versions because they don't count I guess?

Game pass core sucks rear end. I assumed it would at least have all the first party titles but lol, it gives you garbage like halo 5 and a smattering of mid poo poo

Still find it weird Xbox went with Blade for a Marvel game rather than Hulk since he's huge and green

I think Spidey 2 for PC was part of the huge Insomniac leak a few weeks ago

Well it's kind of a given that Xbox games are on PC so I think they just mean console exclusive, even if they don't explicitly say so.

We should get rid of exclusives, but bring back games having weird differences between platforms, like one version with dog poo poo music or whatever, or one of them is just a 2D side scrolling version of the same game.

Do you guys read this as new hardware coming out this holiday or being announced this holiday. I know the rumored PS5 pro is supposed to be this holiday so it would be interesting if they have something ready to counter it. Really wasn't expecting something this soon.

It’s both. He said in the video that they would announce new hardware this winter and the new products/controllers is probably a slimmed down or all digital version of the X that will release this year.

It's almost certainly this from the accidentally posted court documents. From those docs we also know there shouldn't be a mid-gen Pro refresh.
