Wow, guys. Sony have obviously paid for this exclusive content, I don't think there's anything to argue about it. Ubisoft certainly aren't doing it out of the goodness of their hearts...
... and it's crap.
Honestly, it's one thing making an exclusive - I mean, paying for it all the way through development, internal studio or external studio contracted. I encourage the big 3 to do that.
Then it's another thing 'buying' exclusivity. Unsure how I feel about this. Depends how much they assisted development either practically or financially (i.e. Demon's Souls; Journey - thumbs up) or not (Metal Gear Solid 4, questionable).
And then there's buying exclusive DLC or timed exclusivity. Honestly, a plague on the industry, I'm looking at you Call of Duty, Skyrim and now apparently AC3. Sony are responsible for it way back since last gen, but Microsoft are the biggest offenders at the moment.
Generally it doesn't bother me since I don't particularly buy any of these big-name games anyway and if I do, it's certainly not at launch (or new, ha) It's just the principle of the thing. Throwing money at the developers not to make extra content, but simply to keep extra content from the other side. Uff.
