The frustrating thing is they're both being shitty for consumers. It's terrible that they're acquiring these previously cross platform publishers and making them exclusives, but at the same time, this is what Sony has been doing for a while (at best, they very recently have started doing PC releases but with a multi year delay, which I don't really count as truly cross platform).
