Xbox boss Phil Spencer says any Xbox game could come to PlayStation
"I do not see sort of red lines in our portfolio that say ‘thou must not'"
#Halo may be an option — but it's 'too early [to tell]'

They’re all coming eventually, the writing is on the wall, MS is a software company first and foremost and this fits the bill now that Satya cracked the whip after all the 3rd place hardware finishes.
Gotta swing for the fences sometimes.

This man does not know anything about video games!
Nintendo has the right idea with making a competitive advantage in a console that can't just be out-spec'd
It's an extremely efficient SoC, but the build quality is very poor. 3DS / Vita have a much better build.
Switch is just popular because of the exclusives and cheap.
I will always advocate for pirating and emulating Nintendo games.
Xbox and Sony keep trying to make better supercomputers and are effectively outpricing their customer base despite having pretty impressive specs.
And as such, they have to often sell the consoles at break even or a loss.
Smash on EVO was a staple and so much fun, until Nintendo banned with threat of lawsuits any and all tournaments not sponsored only by them with the versions they wanted ... to boost sales? nah, it's xenophobia disguised as IP protection.
also PS5 Pro = 700$
Full Price Game = 60$ (without steam cut taking from their revenue)
so you would need 11,5x more people buying your game than your console (without taking steam cut into account) to make your money back
it'd be sick to be able to see Halo or Destiny on both consoles.
exceptions being limited-time exclusives or if a developer for some reason wants their game on only one platform (for example, PC exclusives).
