It's honestly incredible that Sea of Thieves is at the top of the list this long after launch with no discount on price at all... while also being on GamePass.  MS also keeping MCC consistent with the rollout over time.  Still ODST and Halo 4 to go too.

Sharing their games with PC was the right move, it only serves to benefit them and allow more money to be reinvested. 

Undoubtedly.  I mean, Windows is their platform... it was stupid that they focused on solely console for so long in the first place.  Back in the day it made sense to push the "box in every livingroom" strategy, but MS has always had an advantage that they never really took advantage of.. and unfortunately it had to wait until they stumbled on the console side to really see it... but now it's crystal clear that the goal should be to have multiple platforms where they can now reach literally every type of gamer out there with their products (console, PC, and mobile) 

 

They fucked up with the Windows store, but recognizing that they can reach a huge audience with Steam and accepting that fact is a great call on Phil's leadership.  And honestly a lot of the different kinds of games MS has been making generally do well on PC to begin with.  Games like State of Decay, while I'm not saying it's been a hit on PC, is the type of game that can create a decent community on PC and they will play those games for YEARS.  I think we're seeing that with Sea of Thieves... there's a BIG dedicated player-base that will play that game for years to come.

 

It's always far more important that a publisher can be successful and those funds generated can be redirected back into funding more games and new IP, than it is to keep some "exclusivity" to a certain box or whatever.

That list is actually pretty sad when you look at it. PC gamers are so starved for games that they have no choice but to look forward to console ports.
