Hm... Sony has ALWAYS been looking for their first person killer app since Goldeneye came out. Sony should've got this game as an exclusive! Of course, Sony didn't have the money them to do it.... wish they did. This game would've been an amazing exclusive.


Nobody has the money to make Destiny exclusive

Destiny apparently cost $200 million to make (not including marketing costs). You are very much right. Maybe Nintendo could've, though? Apparently they have billions in the bank. I don't know.

to make something exclusive you need yo pay more than just development cost,  the funds need to cover the loss of sales from the excluded platforms as well as advertising agressively to increase single playform sales. 

would take a hell of a lot more than 200mill.

 

as things are though,  with many xbox fans snubbing destiny because they see bungie as being traitors,  and the obvioud leaning towards playstation,  it may as well be a playstation excludive as far as success and sales go,  bungie just benefit from the sales of other platforms,  ensuring the game doesnt die off.
