Xbox to PS? Yeah I can see that

PS to Xbox?... Yeah...okay uh no. They don't have to negotiate their brands as that is what gives them power. Something Microsoft is significantly lacking

As of now, it’s unclear if Corden is referring to first-party or third-party games making their way to Microsoft’s consoles.

This is news only when either: a 1st party strategy is confirmed, or 3rd party titles are named.

That 3rd party timed exclusives go multiplatform eventually is just business as usual.

Holy shit gaming outlets are really desperate for clicks. How, just how are these people better paid than garbage collection crews or entry level nurses. We need to make it impossible to make a living wage creating click and ragebait. Just mandate adblocking by default in all browsers, ffs.

Well, this is misleading. My mind goes to the likes of Sony first party titles in reading this headline, but the examples that the article uses as a metric for "PlayStation exclusive" are more like the games that either were paid to not go to Xbox or didn't see the fiscal sense in doing so. It doesn't rule out first party titles, but that's far from the most likely. Of Sony's first party games, the ones most likely to come to Xbox, if at all, are the live service games, and that's looking increasingly like a strategy that Sony regrets anyway, so why even bother with Xbox when it's not going to move the needle?

Log into Xbox to log into PSN. Just a few more layers and we'll have Inception.
