| ICStats said: Well, funding a new IP like Titanfall is fair game. If MS is paying to block an IP from a console on which that IP sells best, and is likely to sell 3 times more on PS4 than XB1 let alone PC sales, it's a betrayal to fans. If I was working at CD I'd probably be searching for another company to work right now. |
Betrayal to fans? Microsoft is looking out for their own fans, and this deal made it possible for them to give their fans a game completely omptomized for the Xbox One.
Microsoft is company, as is CD/SE. They aren't here to make sure every single gamer is happy. They are here to make money, and that's what Microsoft is giving them.
Sony did the exact same thing with Final Fantasy when they stole it from Nintendo, and Nintendo did the exact same thing with Bayonetta 2. Like I said before, the industry isn't a fantasy land where the companies all work together to make everyone happy. No. They look out for themselves and their fans, and getting exclusive rights to games is one of the ways of doing so.
If someone at CD heard this news, they would probably just be happy that Microsoft is paying for their salaries. They don't care if some people who only have a PS4 feel betrayed for whatever reason.
You're Gonna Carry That Weight.
