This silliness really needs to stop. People acting as if they're so personally offended by Bungie's slight shift towards the PS4 for one damn game. If something like that pisses you off so much then don't you dare buy Sunset Overdrive by Insomniac considering the many, many years and title after title that PlayStation fans spent supporting them only to watch an exclusive be made for the X1 after they ended the Resistance franchise and kept giving them now half-assed Ratchet & Clank games. How about boycotting Titanfall since millions upon millions of PlayStation fans supported EA and the original Infinity Ward team just to watch a console exclusive deal get made? How about the Metal Gear franchise going completely multiplatform now? Will you refuse to buy Final Fantasy after the ridiculously long and successful history it had with Sony? Stop acting like brats. At least you're still getting the damn game which is more than can be said for the first two examples. If you loved Bungie so much then shouldn't your loyalty be more for them than Microsoft? Afterall, Bungie is probably the only reason Microsoft is even still in the game.

Those are all poor analogies because none of the developers of those games were ever 1st party Sony studios. Bungie was 1st party Microsoft, and they purposefully seperated from Microsoft and are now snubbing all of their Xbox fans, who they owe much of their success and popularity to.

Bungie was 1st party??? I thought they were alwas 2nd party??
OH LORD!
So it really does seem like Bungie coudn't wait to get away from MS and Halo
also, doesn't MS owe much of their success and popularity to Bungie?

Yeah, Bungie was first party. Bungie was making Halo for the Mac to prove it could be considered a capable gaming computer but Steve Jobs didn't want to buy them. Microsoft came up and took them and Halo ended up being their ace in the hole to survive in the gaming industry.
