CGI-Quality said: I think it's pretty sad that some of the same folks who defended Microsoft for actually BUYING exclusives so it would NEVER come to a Playstation (or Nintendo format for that matter), are pissed off about a T_I_M_E_D exclusive in ONE region.
Well, as mentioned, boohoo, Sony & Nintendo fans have been dealing with this kind of stuff the whole gen. It's Micrsosoft who entered a race to "kill off" the competition, THAT'S trying to screw over gamers. At least Ghostbusters is coming to the 360.
Sorry about the rant, I just think this complaining is quite pathetic. |
Buying exclusives? To the best of my knowledge the things MS has purchased are timed exclusives and exclusive content to make their versions better. Sony was and still is the king of Moneyhatting, so I don't get your point here bro.

Because we know how great the DLC for Fallout 3 really is. x.o
Another thing, Sony are doing it so they can release the movie and game together on 1 blu-ray disc. They have been talking about the idea for months. It's just they didn't mention Ghostbusters, probably because it was supposed to be a surprise. Hense the reason for them gaining the publishing rights. I understand that you think there was no real reason for it but Sony seemed to have a decent idea and tried to go with it. If Sony didn't have the publishing rights, there might have been a possibility the release date would be approaching and they wouldn't have a game to put on the blu-ray. It's not nearly as big of a deal as the 1 year wait that the Sony fans had to do for Eternal Sonata or Bioshock or the few months timed exclusivity of Lost Planet and The Orange Box..I don't think there will be that massive of a change of the release dates of the games.

I understand the movie thing, but that doesn't change the fact that the game will still sell crap. Fallout 3 was found to be, overall superior on the 360 when compared to the PS3 version, by the reviews. This movie is complete proof that Sony is using the videogame industry to bring relevance to their dwindling electronics brand.

I was referring to the DLC from Fallout 3. I've heard not so many great things about it since it came out. If we're going by reviews, I'm not sure how well justified the 360 exclusive DLC is.
I was referring to the actual game.
As for the movie thing, dwindling electronics brand? It might be but putting a movie and game on the same blu-ray will be cheaper then producing 2 seperate blu-ray discs or products that may or may not sell.
Sony without the gaming division would've been a dwindling brand. Their marketshare is a hell of a thing. Putting a movie and game on Blu Ray isn't cheap at all. Sony wanted to make the Blu Ray version of the Ghosbusters movie relevant.
Where are you getting the idea that it will sell like crap? I really don't think you know how this game will sell because this is one of those games that's popularity is actually up in the air.Nobody actually knows if the Ghostbuster series is dead, dying or waiting to be revitalized...We have no current Ghostbusters trends to compare it to. All we have is a hyped game, and a blu-ray release of the series. Just because you don't care about the game doesn't mean that nobody else does.
If you doubt what i'm saying, show me the demographic in which Ghostbusters is focused on.
