After the Street Fighter V "announcement" I've seen a lot of forum chatter here and elsewhere disappointed that it is a PS4 exclusive. Obviously, this is fine if you only own an Xbox One but I keep seeing this sentiment that it being a PS4 exclusive is somehow, "wrong".
I've always been of the opinion that if a game is on a console you don't own and you really want it the best option is to just buy that console, not complain that you want it on something you don't own. It feels like this weird entitlement that gamers have.
Was it wrong when Chrono Trigger only came out for the SNES? Was it wrong when Twisted Metal wasn't on N64? Console exclusives make generations what they are.The PS2 wouldn't have been the PS2 if GTA III wasn't originally exclusive to Sony's platform.
We are all lucky to be gamers, lucky to own TV's and have the internet...sometimes games are exclusive to one console and that's OK. If it bothers someone so much I think they should go and buy the other console and I know that that is an expensive solution but gaming is an expensive hobby and there are lots of people out there who could never afford a beat up Atari let alone an Xbox One or PS4.
