WTF?

It is Multiplatform.

Yes, to the informed gamer. Even if people know its multiplat, they are convinced that one console is THE place to play it. Hence "pretend".

But why would you assume the default reaction to the uninformed gamer would be that its an exclusive?

they maybe uninformed about the particular game but based on their knowledge from massive multiplatform games which still only have 1 logo, they know an advert only having 1 logo does not mean it is only on that platform.

uninformed is not the same as stupid.

I said they would think exclusive or that it would be THE place to play the game above all else. I mentioned that the effect on a new IP like Destiny will affect the console advertised far greater then a very well known 3rd party blockbuster that is advertised one-sided.
