    I mean console exclusives are often criticized but ok. People hate that shit, but it's profitable so it keeps happening. Unfortunately people hate it but can't bring their dumb asses to keep from buying it. One single damn time an exclusive gets boycotted and poof no more problem, but nope, gotta get that game you'll probably barely ever even play.

    Well they own worldwide media companies so that helps with their image. They go so much pull in media is a reason why it's hard to find negative press in main stream.

    The Xbox is stupid, and it always has been. I might be being petty but I definitely feel like the Xbox is actually a pretty big reason why the game market is in the state it is in right now. Rational or not I blame them for the whole "single player games are dying out" and "games as a service" mentality that seems so prevalent with triple AAA developers. The only thing I might blame a little more is Facebook. I mean the writing was on the wall but still.
    Also the Xbox was a console, not a store. Imagine having a game you could only buy at Walmart or Gamestop or Best Buy. Now tell me that isn't stupid and potentially exploitative.
