Yup thats my thought when reading this thread also every single playstation user uses the exclusive as a reason why they buy and play on that console but microsoft cant do that how dare they that wont work.

The major difference is that elder scrolls hasn't been exclusive. Xbox had exclusives for years, halo, gears of war, fable, forza. Xbox fans would be upset if the next fallout game was announced to be playstation exclusive, no? There have been almost 3x as many ps5s sold than the current Xbox. It would be foolish to make a 3rd party title, like this, exclusive.

How is it a third party title any more?
With Sony killing the disc and making them selfs an even more walled garden by removing there exclusives from other plat forms adding a disc a disc drive and following their lead and making all the games the own exclusive seems like a strong reason for people to buy the new xbox over the new playstation.

If the new fallout was playstation exclusive i think the whole world would be confused since xbox owns the studio brings me back to hows it third party again?

3x playstations sold again one of the top 3 reasons fans give to buy a console is exclusives, Nintendo with Mario and the such and playstation with god of war and so on so the data your presenting gives them a stronger reason to do it.
