This has the same vibe as a billionaire with all of his money hidden if tax havens saying that he'd love to contribute more to society, if only the government would tax him more.

Are Sony and Microsoft just trying to shift the blame back and forth between themselves lately?

"If it was up to me I would love to get rid of the entire exclusives on consoles, but that's not for me to define especially as a low-share player in the console market. The dominant player there [Sony] has defined market competition using exclusives, so that's the world we live in. I have no love for that world."

I'm not sure I believe him on that. Exclusives on console have been a thing pretty much the entire time. Him trying to blame on that Sony is a little weird considering that.

Why would Sony want to give their best games to Microsoft while all the exclusives from MS are shit tier ?
