I really don't know how you can compare a game going multiplatform (meaning more people can play it, and no harm done except perhaps to fanboy egos) to Sony suddenly preventing people from playing a game on non-Sony systems when it's only one month from launch. |
Maybe hes referring to square having to delay the PS3 release in PAL and NA to port the 360 version....they can say in on ebreath its not causing delays and in the next say the PS3 version is going to be finished before work begins on the 360 so you cant trust anything square says.
Just like i said when it was announced (FF) i have no problem as a gamer with games going multi, it just makes sense financially imo....but at the same time i hardly think any game, an di mean ANY game that goes for GTA, madden, COD if its announced "hey, its coming out on x system now and then x system later" any gamer or person willing to spend 400 dollars on a system is going to say theyll pay upwards of $400 to enjoy a game for an extra 6 months and not wait to buy it on the latter system.
The thing is people argueing how sony are the devil are only argueing based on some strange world where they arent taking into considerations anything other than some barebones conviction. The fact of the matter is its ghostbusters, people already know its coming to their system of choice later be it wii or 360 and in the real world its just PR bullshit so sony can say teh word exclusive and think theyre giving people boners or something, yet people want to fight a crusade for gamers? Please.
Like i said before....want to start a crusade include all real variables, the previous DLC deals that stopped me from playing through fallout or GTA, the deals that made PS3 bioshock dead in the water on arrival, pun intended...if someone or any poster here wants to write a blog or thesis on the topic im all for it....but this gen its going to be 95% about MSFT and include everything as a whole, dont bitch about this and not include anything MSFT has done regardless of the thread topic and even so the thread topic is sony screwing gamers and its completely ignoring all of the other examples of other companies thus making it on topic imo to also include MSFT doing more with even bigger frachises.
