      If they bought fromsoft they could make them exclusive but I doubt it. I love their games but they are niche, Elden Ring is the only one that blew up. Making a Dark Souls game (or souls like) and then excluding platforms is a bad idea for business.
      Xbox could easily bleed Sony dry way before Sony could do it to Xbox. Firstly, MS has way more money, secondly Xbox has way more studios, devs, IPs and they can take away so many big titles from PS. All ABK games (COD in 10Y), all Zenimax games and XGS. Not to mention they want more acquisitions.

    Do people really think that the Xbox's hardware sell rate is going to change with the snap of a finger? People have to become conditioned and accustomed to Xbox studio games releasing (Game Pass) over time. And this is the first year that meaningful games have actually released one after the other. COD will help sell consoles over the long term, but not the first time it's released on Game Pass. People want to see proof of Xbox's release strategy and this is the first time we are actually seeing it..... COD, Indiana Jones, Avowed. Momentum needs to build.
