What games do they have?
I'm a fan of xbox franchises like Halo, fable, kotor, forza etc and also the xbox and xbox 360 and I think they're doing some cool things now like the backwards compatibility stuff and pushing for cross play gaming but regardless of all that I'm still confused how they're so inconsistent in the last decade with exclusive releases. Not only are exclusive games very sparse but there are basically no AAA 3rd party exclusives on xbox one/series (when og xbox and 360 had tons) but also the few that have released have been a complete mixed bag. You get brilliant games like horizon 5 but then completely broken and unfinished games like Halo infinite. Just doesn't make sense to me when pretty much every other major publisher in the industry from Nintendo to EA have more consistency.

>there are basically no AAA 3rd party exclusives on xbox one/series
nigga they made the best exclusive game that has come out in the past 10 years
>available on PC
>exclusive
Since Sony’s fucking up royally with the PS5, I’m thinking about getting an Series X for this gen, but there are still too few exclusives for me. What happened to the dozens of studios MS bought? They should be drowning in exclusives by now.
>Just buy a PC hurr durr
I’d love to, but I have sex :(
That's not a 3rd party exclusives that's a MS IP. I'm talking about exclusives like xbox used to have from 3rd parties like kotor, mass effect, gears of war (before MS bought the IP), jet set radio future, shenmue 2, ninja gaiden games, lost Odyssey etc. Sony has a bunch of these like Nioh and persona
>could easily just hold Rare at gunpoint and force them to make a proper sequel to Banjo
>don't because fuck it
Just because they bought a studio it doesn't mean it can make a good game right away. The main problem is that Microsoft botched the Xbox One reveal so much they stopped making games for a whole generation. Xbox One was set up with more exclusives than the PS4 for a long time. But when the console crashed the company didn't know what to do. The little studio capacity they had either left or was closed down. Third parties were afraid to invest into Xbox when PS4 beat it to a pulp by every metric. It may pay off in the long run but Phil definitely took his sweet time to rebuild the brand. Xbox gave up the One and has serious troubles integrating the new studios into their company structure. Compared to this Sony and Nintendo became extremely proficient in making the few games they concentrate on for decades.
