my guess is that there is a problem in their relationship. nothing will happen cause of legality, but you can bet the gears 3 will be on ps3 and 360 and pc. they might even include all 3 gears on a blu ray for ps3 owners, just to piss off ms. gears 1 coming to ps3, fat chance. a gears coming to ps3, bet on it.

 Why would they? They have no reason to since it's selling insanely well on 360.

Christ why do PS3 owners suddenly think they are getting Gears anyway? I mean, how random is that. "Hey Gears won game of the year... Sony is going to compel the the company to make the sequel go on the failing PS3!!" Right...

why do people on this website judge all ps3 owners off of 1 or 2 people...???? as a ps3 owner i dont believe GEARS will be on the ps3... but i do believe bioshock to be a timed exclusive


 A lot of PS3 owners think that way, and even you think it's a timed exclusive.  I mean, does everything have to be multiplatform nowadays?  Why is it impossible for a game to be just on 360 and PC?  They work hard on Bioshock, and perhaps it's just too difficult to port it.  I'm not trying to generalize PS3 owners though...if someone generalizes PS3 owners, it's probably because those kind of PS3 users generalize "kiddy Wii users" and "360 shooter guys" the same way.



LEFT4DEAD411.COM
Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

Really? I never thought about Gears coming to the Playstation 3. Why would Microsoft release their game onto the Playstation 3?

 Same way wii and 360 fans think its impossible for a 3rd party game to be PS3 only, aka MGS or FF13.

 Even if Kojima has freaking said that multiple times and FF13 being on a PS3 only engine.

You do recognize that Gears of War is a second party title, not third party, don't you? And that this makes a huge difference?

The truth is unless M$ owns EPIC, they dont own crap. Only time will tell what games they decide to release on what systems. At the time the 360 was there best bet because there install base was large and the others were not. By the time they release a Gears 3....if they do.....both the Wii and the PS3 will have a very large install base as well. Companies like EPIC are in this to make money. So if they can have the potentiol to sell another 20-30 million copies, why would they stick with one platform.........unless M$ pays a pretty penny to keep them....maybe...or they feel the hardware in the 360 is the only harware that can play there game.....very unlikley. That is the reason the 360 is getting previous PS "exclisives". Sony didnt want to pay them to keep them. M$ cant afford to buy everyone and neither can Sony. I think we will see a lot more multi plat games, but Nintendo and Sony will keep the most exclusive titles.

 what diffenrce does it make when the contract ends ? ms loses publishind rights when that happens.

Bioshock sure is not 2nd party.

 would you be happy with selling 4-5 million when you could get 6-7?  sellingmore is always the goal.

Right. That contract ends years from now, not in 6 months -- like your hypothesized MGS port -- but years. Basically what you're saying is this: "Years from now, any game for the 360 may be on a Sony platform." Which can be said in reverse, as well. Team Ico games may be on Microsoft platforms, years from now. Mario may be on the PS5 if things suddenly go way, way south for Nintendo. All of this is technically true, and from this angle you could argue that no game (even first party titles) is definitively and absolutely an exclusive. 

So take your pick. Would you like to argue this position? If so, will you admit that the new Team Ico games and Gran Turismo could quite possibly be on Microsoft platforms at some point in the future? Will you admit they aren't "exclusives?"

I really dont see Gears coming to PS3 but Bioshock seems timed since it was first announce it was for PS3,360 and PC but at X06 it was made timed. it doesnt matter for me IM A PROUD PSWII60 Owner.
