    Xbox boss Phil Spencer said in an interview that he's a big fan of the Uncharted series and he acknowledges that the Xbox One doesn't have that kind of game right now. He says that there are games similar to Uncharted lined up but the quality does not catch up to Sony's famed action adventure game. But guess what Xbox and Microsoft did?

    They made Rise of the Tomb Raider an exclusive in order to match up well with Uncharted 4.

    Well, it's not a full fledged exclusive. It's just a timed exclusive, meaning, the game could come out on the other consoles after a certain period of time.

    What do you think of Microsoft's strategy?
