  • Welcome back to Next-Gen Console Watch. This week Daemon is joined by Max Scoville, host of IGN's PlayStation show, Podcast Beyond, and Stella Chung, from Unlocked, IGN's Xbox podcast. The topic: what is the future of console-exclusive games? Ex-PlayStation exec Shawn Leydon seems to be against console exclusives if their production budgets get too high, and former Xbox exec Peter Moore thinks Microsoft is already discussing bringing their AAA titles like Halo to competing platforms. Plus, we have last week's poll and another poll for you to vote on at IGN.com.

      If everything was just a two year timed exclusive then you'd still have incentive to buy one console over another or buy all three consoles, but if you can't afford it you can also wait two years to buy the game on your preferred platform. It's a win-win for both consumers and platform holders, as they need to sell more software

    Nintendo's secret to success is they sell their hardware for profit, or at least, not a loss like Sony, or Xbox. This is why most of their hardware is under powered: It's cheaper to produce. So, any sales of their consoles, or handhelds (their primary market share where they dominate) is additional profit on top of game sales where the traditional money is made.

    What’s the point of having multiple platforms if there’s no insensitive to have exclusives? Like this sounds so braindead. So y’all want different consoles to play the same games? Makes sense…. it’s not even about being superior and if that’s the case PC users always feel superior because of a graphics card and processor. So many bias comments in this video is hilarious.

      There would still be incentive of buying one console over another if everything was just a two year timed exclusive. As a business who's looking to sell software first and foremost, what's the point of never releasing a game on another platform and missing out on further sales?

      It’s profitable already. They broke even at 7.2m copies as per the leak and it sold more than 10m already.
      Also people seem to forget how these platform holders make money. Think steam, they have no exclusives yet they make money because they collect 30 percent from every third party sale including mtx/dlc. Ps collects way more from that than they do first party sales and that’s without any dev risk.
      GTA5 is coming out next year for consoles only. By having a few exclusives you essentially have the dominant platform for that game’s sale. Ps will collect double the sales of gta5 vs Xbox based on install base. Let’s say it sells to half the base on each console. That’s 30m vs 15m in copies sold on ps vs Xbox. For ps that’s 30% x $70 x 30 = 630m in profit off one title. And that’s all profit, no risk of development or anything.
      Why would you give that up to sell a few more million copies of 1-2 first party games (that’s all ps can release based on studios it has).
      Ragnarok sold 15m on ps alone in a year. The best selling game every where was hogwarts at 22m. So essentially to get 7m more sales (343m) you risk your entire platform, where the fifa’s, cods, Fortnite’s, Roblox just give you free money.

    Exclusives never made sense to me especially from a business standpoint. Releasing games on multiple platforms gives gamers more choices and increases sales and in return they make more money for future IP's. Not to mention you got grown men in their 40 & 50's acting like children getting mad because a game is now available on other platforms. So your mad now because more people can play the game🤷‍♂? They saying things like, "Its PlayStation over here, all day, everyday" like they gang banging reppin their set for their favorite console its kind of sad actually. They act like if game gets released on another platform it somehow gets erased from theirs and they cant play it. You can still play your game bro just chill 😂😂

    Every game should just come on PC. Nintendo might take another decade or two given their famous stubbornness, but eventually all games should be made available on PC platforms. PC is just the objectively best platform. You can upgrade it to be as strong as you want, or go for something cheaper. You can play games anywhere with Steam Deck or other handheld PCs. You can mod the games however you want. PlayStation Studios and Square Enix can make great games, I'd just much, much rather play them on PC rather than be forced to buy a console for a small handful of games.
