The financial report also stated that fellow Take-Two title LA Noire is due out in fiscal 2008. The spokesperson suggested that both Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 releases are likely, stating, "LA Noire is being developed for next-generation systems." http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/rockstar-confirms-episodic-gta-content-360-only
Even though it's being funded by Sony, we know how long exclusives last. Since then, the title has been bumped till 2009, but nothing has been denied about what was said to shareholders during the financial briefing. Concerns were experssed about potential software sales, and this titles multiplatform release was stated as "likely" to calm fears. It's getting harder and harder to get developers to commit to exclusivity, especially when the 360 software sells so well in America. FFXIII, Tekken, This. Exclusivity is a now, conviniently, always "timed." I hope this doesn't make PS3 owners less excited about the game, like it has about other games. Apparently now, Tekken sucks, Virtual Fighter is awesome, FFVersesXIII pwns FFXIII, and I bet now MAG pwns L.A. Noire, right?

One can only afford to make such comments when one sees Halo or Gears of War go to Sony consoles. For now I feel the grieving they maybe experiencing but also laugh at Sony wondering how they will counter such low blows from MS. Will they stand and fight or will they fail miserably.
