PlayStation wanted to push there CDs. That's the only reasonMicrosoft has had day 1 PC releases for all their first party titles for years now. Sony is not doing this so far. They last said at least 1 year exclusivity and then a PC release and so far that's been the case(Horizon FW is launching more than 2 years later on PC.) MSFT is doing it out of necessity, not because it's the better thing to do.
Okay
Again, this was what I said before in that Xbox pioneered online gaming for consoles.
OK. I don't remember much on the OG Xbox besides loading up a game though.
Idk about that, the boomerang and dualshock 3 were unveiled as wireless controllers before the 360 released.
Dreamcast came with the DLC installs first. MSFT bettered it.
Now let's do a list of the things Sony pioneered:

Dual analog sticks in the first dualshock.
You can say N64 inspired it and they made it a hot song but then the same thing can be said for the online and DLC capabilities of the Dreamcast to Xbox.
- CD based gaming which allowed for much bigger games/audio compared to cartridges. Before that it was an add-on(like how the network adapter was an "add on" for the PS2.
- PS2 with the built in DVD player
- PS3 with the bluray player
Motion gaming has been around since the NES with the power glove, power pad and Sega with the activator.
- Eyetoy for motion gaming
I'll give them this
- Haptic feedback/adaptive triggers in the dualsense
The virtua boy says hello
- Console Virtual reality
- Touchpad on the Dual shock 4
The free games didn't start until they started charging for PS plus networkif I recall. It was basically hey sorry we have to charge for online maintenance also.
- Free games with online subs(PS Plus launched in 2010, XBL Games with Gold later
I'll give them this also.
- Streaming games online through other devices(Remote play, PS Now)
All the platforms have pioneered something. MSFT wasn't the end all be all of pioneering things/forward thinking that currently are the modern gaming experience.

It's not a narrative, it's what she said
We've been here before. Phil is going to say that Xbox is committed to it's gamers. It is committed to making new consoles and making the best games for Xbox. Then he will talk about making Xbox games playable on all screens, so gamers can play Xbox games on the platform of their choice. Code for: We are going to be a 3rd party distributor of games, and have a console for the suckers stuck on Xbox.
This was my initial prediction, and I stand on it. Phil stated "...These 4 games do not represent a change in our fundamental strategy for exclusives..." Dude will never tell you Xbox's fundamental strategy for exclusive titles. Nor did he do it on the podcast, which is the primary reason we all tuned in. He did say that games exclusive to a specific piece or hardware will decrease in the near future, and when Tom Warren of the Verge asked him if he will rule out ever porting Indiana Jones and Starfield to PS5, Phil said he wouldn't rule it out. We still don't know if COD will go on Gamepass day and date. I don't see how Xbox fans walked away from that podcast excited. Phil just turned up the water temp, and the X-frogs are none the wiser.
It’ll most definitely be more in the future but I don’t see it becoming a day and date thing. Which imo makes it a nothing burgerY’all still in here arguing .. it’s 4 games.. 2 of which are guaranteed trash![]()
What's funny about that tweet is they stated in the podcast that they have no plans to put Gamepass on Nintendo or Sony consoles. You can't trust anything Phil Spencer says.
