| starcraft said: Looking at Bioshock sales on the PS3, it is clear that if you buy a game's exclusivity for long enough, you essentially make that game your own. Given the miniscule sales of Bioshock on PS3, the feasability of Microsoft buying a window of exclusivity on the second title just massively increased. Mass Effect 2 is a different story. Whereas Bioshock 2 may not directly follow on from the original story-wise, the second Mass Effect almost certainly will. So EA has an incentive to accept an offer of payment from Microsoft in return for (at least a window of) exclusivity. What do you guys think? |
I think that 2k now understands how much they damaged the Bioshock franchise by letting MS buy timed exclusivity. The only reason they released the originial Bioshock on the PS3 is because they want to release the sequel on the PS3. I don't think the PS3 sequel is in any jeopardy.
The only reason why Mass Effect 2 would appear on the PS3 is to support EA's multiplatform policy.
Thanks for the input, Jeff.
