The Spider-Man Exclusivity Problem - Episode 58

Join the Bonus Accessory crew every Friday as they dive head first into  all things Xbox, Xbox Game Pass, and PC gaming. With the announcement of  Spider-Man coming to Marvel’s Avengers exclusively on PlayStation  platforms, it raises the time old question: where should the exclusivity  line be drawn when it comes to gaming? So this week, we examine what  kind of reverberations this deal could send across its forthcoming  player base and why content gated exclusivity could potentially even  hurt the players it’s supposedly helping. Plus, it’s official: Halo  Infinite’s multiplayer is going free to play and will support up to 120  FPS on Xbox Series X. Will this be the shot in the arm that the  franchise needs to be a contender in the ever growing pool of esports  titles? Also, Microsoft has begun to remove the Xbox Live and Live Gold  naming from their branding. Does this mean the long rumored removal of  Xbox Live is upon us, and if so, does the inclusion of xCloud still make  Game Pass Ultimate the valuable package it has been? All of this, and  much more, on the newest episode of the Game Pass Gamecast! Be sure to  subscribe and turn on notifications to be the first to  listen to new  episodes as soon as they drop every Friday!
