Why are these games now on PC but not xbox?

[Faster With Feeling]

I mean an xbox is a stripped down PC so why are these games on PS and PC but not xbox?

Uncharted is one of Sony's flagships in the console war.

But it's old

The pc is still a competitor too. There are plenty of people who would rather play a game on pc for obvious reasons.(Better grafics, better fps,better modding,cheaper).

the xbox is the same as a play station or a pc if you want to say they are all computers but a xbox being "like a pc" is said because xbox fw and windows share some drivers, a game still needs to be made for an xbox for it to play and sony wont do that

A third party developer may make the game for all platforms.. ND is a first party studio of Sony and getting their port on PC is a big deal to broaden the player base in a way but definitely they are not going to stretch that to their biggest console rival.

Similarly its like asking an XBOX based first party studio franchise like say Halo or Gears to get made on PS.. that wont happen either.

Because Halo is from Microsoft, you will never see Halo on Playstation as you will never see Uncharted on Xbox. And all of that is because they're direct rivals in the same console market.

Because it's sony. They blocked their titles from coming to xbox. Nothing can be done about it.

I guess because we're not competition. Anyone who has stuck this long to PC probably never would get a PS5, and the existence of these ports means it's certain that they have research that proves this. By comparison, Xbox users are willing to buy consoles and are convertible.
