COD is an already established franchise on both eco systems that always sells like candy. Starfield is a new IP not a fair comparison.

Yeah it's really not confusing at all. Making COD an exclusive, especially during a console generation, would be a much larger controversy.

I'm more curious about Elder Scrolls VI. From the beginning they've been coy, even with articles "confirming" its exclusivity.

The console market as a whole is diseased, and as far as any self respecting gamer is concerned, ended with the ps360 era.

I definitely prefer the more open PC platform but the console market has open up a lot since the 360 era. Crossplay, crossbuy, crosssave we’re not at all prevalent back then.
