But Microsoft is doing exactly the same thing, only instead of paying for exclusivity of one title, they're buying developers so not just their next title, but all future releases will be exclusive, up until MS decides they're not worth it and dumps them.
Sony absolutely participates in anti-consumer practices, but let's not pretend that MS is any better.
Day one releases on PC and Xbox, and coming later on PS5 is quite a bit different to day one on PS5, year later on PC and never on Xbox.
There's bad, and then there's "you'll never play this unless you buy our console"
