You're going to be waiting a while for a new top notch IP from Microsoft.
|
Really? I thought the next one would be Codename:Kingdoms
|
Microsoft is only publishing the game. It isn't in-house and I havent seen gameplay. Pick another title. Its about as exclusive as the original Mass Effect.
|
what if they own the ip rights? Nobody knows that yet. In which case it would be just as exclusive as resistance or ratchet and clank.
|
Ok....you're comparing a title from Crytek (who generally make games for themselves) to Insomniac who has since the PS1 era been making titles exclusively for Sony? They are third party, but are almost seen by the industry as an unofficial first party. Microsoft has never had that type of respect since entering the console industry.
|
thats cool, so sony's unofficial first party studio's are going multiplatform with their next game? Thats some crazy logic man. Insomniac going multiplatform just goes to show that historic trends don't mean anything when it comes to new ip.
|
The question is which game you're talking about? Thats when I'll answer. Bungie is multiplatform, Ensemble is no more. They bought the rights to Ninja Blade....and nothing came from that. All they've got left is the top new IP of the gen they started with which is gears. Insomniac might be going multiplat, but they've always been faithful to Sony. I guess being third party they just want to make more money now. They've made console defining titles for Sony for three generations. Theres no crazy logic about that.
|
the crazy logic is where you say crytek can't be exclusive. Who is to say that microsoft can't own the ip to kingdoms (especially since it is being co-developed).
|
Since when did I even talk about Crytek being exclusive (Especially after all the crap with EA)? I never said Microsoft cannot own the IP to kingdoms. I stated it would be no more exclusive than the original Mass Effect. Good lord...lets hope PC doesn't get it either.
|
Microsoft doesn't own the Mass Effect IP . . .
You are very confusing. I thought the argument was that later Kingdoms games might come out for other consoles, since thats what happened after the original Mass Effect. If Microsoft owns the Kingdoms IP, then that would never happen in an eternity of time unless Microsoft sells it.
|
I know Microsoft doesnt own the IP to Mass Effect. They just published the first game. Thats what they do best...publish. They've been awesome at it since before they entered the gaming realm. Microsoft publishes better than Nintendo and Sony combined, but they couldn't create a first party force to save their life. This is where Nintendo and Sony are better.
