This is so funny. You guys can complain all you want, but remember parity goes both ways. When PS3 fans were screaming for parity in multiplatform games Sony instituted a rule that PS3 and Xbox 360 versions must be the same. I would pick Microsoft did the same and for the rest of the generation - a good 4 years away there will be no advantage in Blu Ray for 85% of games released. |
At least what Sony did didn't result in games being gimped......are you really trying to side with M$ on this one?

Multiplatform games will be released on the Xbox 360 and PS3 which are equal. It doesn't mean jack if the PS3 has Blu ray because the Xbox 360 does not. Game developers will seek to bring equality and Sony and Microsoft will implement rules that are to their best advantage.If Sony was all roses in this why did they make a rule which states that no game will be certified on their console if it is not equal with the Xbox 360 version and if it is released later it must have extra content?

ahh but it does. Think of it like this; if this rule is so, where multiplat games must be equal, the developers are going to start blasting on MS. It won't make a difference for 3rd party games, but when Sony starts dropping amazing 1st party games or simply 1st party games with tons more content than any multiplat or 1st/2nd party MS game, developers are going to start complaining. Eventually these Sony in-house games are going to show why theres a difference in the systems..and when the consumers start to notice and ask developers why, are they gonna lie? Nah..they're going to say it's because of these royalties that Microsoft is so greedy about..
Of course this is speculation..I know if the scenario played out like that and I was a 360 owner and not a PS3 owner, and I saw the amount of content the 'others' were getting, I'd start to get a little upset.
