| SaviorX said: Timed-exclusivity is a trend I have started to see happening the end of last-gen. It sucks now for the company getting later because the old news factor does affect sales. However, I don't think hardware sales are affected by timed exclusivity. One game doesn't usually sell a system (except for a few) but those are usually always exclusive. |
I agree. One timed exclusive will not move hardware, but on the whole they will effect peopls decision when they want to purchase a console.
Average person would love to have both ps3 and x360, and a wii for that matter, but they cost money. If one console is getting timed exclusives, combined with the fact that x360 has great exclusives by itself, people are gonna go buy an x360 first. I would and most gamers which don't care which name is on the front of the box will.
