Xbox Series X will launch without first-party exclusives

[loki1944]

Then 0 reason to buy one if you have a PC then; though as far as I know Madden is not coming back to pc? So that would be a console, if not MS, exclusive.

WHAT??? Is Microsoft actually paying attention to it's user base? Amazing!!!

There will be CONSOLE exclusives though and that's what MS thinks really matters and I think they are right.
Now they just need to sort out that awful dashboard and they may have a winner.

I was a PS4 owner before going entirely to PC gaming but Xbox Game Pass is an amazing "exclusive service" that Sony has no response to. Probably the best gaming service I've ever used. It's like Netflix for games.

I’m not sure why people are so upset about Microsoft not having exclusives. I personally don’t give a **** about exclusives and I don’t see why anyone should. It’s just a way to pull you into an ecosystem and keep you there. Not a consumer or gamer friendly practice. IMO, exclusives have been the bane of consoles for decades.

It’s 2020 and I want to play with my friends and it shouldn’t matter what system we all own. Between PS5, Xbox, and PC the systems are all so similar there should be no excuse for not having cross platform multiplayer. Exclusives schmooshives...

Raytracing a must have, lmao.

There are some examples out there showing a pretty big difference with it.
