Just one more little squeak from me:
When MS has payed for exclusives like GTAIV DLC, paid for FFXIII, or even pretend they paid for a Bioshock timed exclusive, there's a large difference.
In the case of FFXIII, they are bringing the game to more people, that is a good thing.
In the case of GTAIV DLC or Bioshock, they aren't actually taking anything away from anyone since it was never promised to anyone.
In the Ghostbusters case, the game is actually being taken away from people, or at least delayed for some amount of time. The game was promised to these people, people bought systems for it (and yes, say what you want, people actually have), and people were hyped for the game, but now they don't get the game they've been waiting for.
That's why this is actually different.
Now I'm not condemning Sony, saying everyone should want Ghostbusters: the Video Game, or even upset with people that just yell OMG it's just Ghostbusters, why 15 pages!?!?!?, just pointing out that above little tidbit. |
Although I agree with your larger point, didn't Microsoft do the exact same thing with The Last Remnant as Sony is doing with Ghostbusters?
I may be wrong, I brought it up earlier and no one refuted it, so I'm guessing it is, at the very least, similar.
