this game should have never been a 360 exclusive. obvious M$ paid for that since there 3rd party would have sold more on all together with a ps3 version. which is why i dont think the ps3 version of M2034 will sale as much as the 360/PC version, very dumb since it the original game got decent or average reviews. good way of spending ur money Microsoft.

Note: Only played a Demo of the original on Onlive but i would have bought it on ps3... makes me not want to even get 2034 cuz i wanna know a little back story, im sure even if playing the original is not needed theres probably some references to it which would suck not knowing.. No dice

From what I have read THQ at the time didn't want to fund a PS3 version as FPS games sold better on 360 and they didn't think it would sell well on any platform.
