Since some people here have legitimized the validity of marketing rights being relevant, let's measure the exclusivity of both 2014 titles and upcoming marketing rights of 2015 multiplatform games. We don't count console exclusives nor timed console exclusives / exclusives.

2014:

(I'm not sure about the status of Shadow of Mordor, Far Cry 4, Wolfenstein and The Evil Within; I'm pretty sure Alien: Isolation wasn't tied marketing-wise to any platform)

PS4

Watch_Dogs (???)

Destiny

Xbox One

Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare

FIFA 15

Assassin's Creed: Unity

Dragon Age: Inquisition

2015:

PS4

Battlefield: Hardline

Batman: Arkham Knight

Star Wars: Battlefront

MGS: Phantom Pain (I guess?)

Xbox One

Evolve

The Witcher 3

Tom Clancy's The Division

Presumably next FIFA, next Call of Duty and Assassin's Creed

If I missed anything, please do let me know, and you be the judge.

I wouldn't bet on the FIFA marketing rights going to XBox after this year.

We are over exclusives, marketing deals are where it is at.

My Answer: Sony

Marketing rights now? Is this system wars or stock traders discussing the profitability of companies?

I personally believe that Battlefront is all Sony needs and that alone makes them better in this category.

Sony of course.

Star Wars Battlefront is gonna be huge this year especially once the Star Wars movie hype machine starts rolling. No way MS can compete with that. Having MGS and Batman is just overkill at this point.

Finally, System Wars Marketing Rights!

*cracks knuckles*

----

THIS IS THE WORST! More marketing rights translates to less 1st party game development. Now let's all dance in a parade dedicated to Marketing Rights as the digital world crumbles around modern gamers.

PC, it gets the best product version of all those games...that in itself is the best marketing.

Wouldn't more marketing rights be more a result of a console doing well, rather than a cause? Either way I don't think it's all that important.

Its kind of funny people try to brag about this.

Anyways, Sony has done a better job tricking its fan base. I knew quite a bit of people that thought Destiny was exclusive. Wouldn't be surprised if that happens with Battlefront.

Well PlayStation is marketing games for the biggest names in pop culture, Batman and Star Wars. Then there's MGSV too. All Xbox has to market that isn't an annual release is The Witcher 3 it seems. CoD, Assassins Creed and FIFA are still big deals though. Huge in fact. I just think PlayStations is more interesting.
