All those games are also available on the PS4 but they can only be played between PC and PS4 users, locking out every other platforms at Sony's request. So I would take that original Squeenix quote with a grain of salt. Either way, that's 3 years old info, which somewhat classifies as outdated.
And what do all of those xbox cross platform games that require xbox live to play have? That's right, option for xbox exclusive servers so xbox players can play only with other xbox players if they want, which is one of the guarantees xbox promises for xbox live subscribers. Yoshi has said flat out that he will not support that since he doesn't want to split the community.
