It took just a day for some clear patterns to emerge in the Xbox Player Voice feedback forum, with the clear-cut leading request being bringing back Xbox console exclusives. A player named Carlos Hernandez shared a request to bring them back, claiming that Xbox isn’t selling enough consoles because there’s no reason to buy them when the games can be bought and played on competing systems. Within a day, that request has received nearly 10,000 upvotes, and over a thousand comments.
back in the day, it meant that the game would actually be developed and optimized for the platform. Not necessarily just so it would be hard to purchase.
With all the platforms being nearly identical in power, there is no real optimizing to do… unless you are going to somehow get HD rumble or center touchpad as your core gameplay.
