| LudicrousSpeed said: 1. Most gamers here seem to be Nintendo and Sony guys. Nintendo guys are pretty irrelevant in this, their console doesn't get most of these 3rd party games. Sony guys lose out on some big games, so naturally that is the situation that creates the biggest stink here. 2. Continuing on that path, a lot of the people here who ARE Sony supporters, seem to be people who came in during the PS2 era, back when it was Sony doing the moneyhatting. They've bitched about it the last two gens because it's a new experience to them. The dominant era of PS1/2 created a sense of entitlement with some people. PS3 broke some of them of this, much like it broke Sony of most of its arrogance. PS4 is dominating, not quite to that level, and it still angers some that it still goes on. I guess some people see PS4 at 10,000,000 units and WiiU at 7 or whatever million and Xbone at 5 or whatever million and they think 3rd party companies due to the gap should be begging Sony to even allow them to be making PS4 games or something. I mean, that thread about Square potentially killing Tomb Raider with this move was hilarious and eye opening in terms of how out of touch people are in regards to Sony and the industry. 3. Rustled jimmies. Naturally there is always some of this going to be happening. It might make good business sense to many for a deal like the Tomb Raider one to happen, or for From Software to take Sony's money and make Bloodborne or whatever (I always get this confused with the Platinum Xbone game, hope I got the name right) or Bayonetta 2 to be Wii U exclusive, but a gamer on a competing console will hate that move. 4. When Sony does it, there are no words to describe how great it is. When MS does it, it's worse than cancer. This is extremely evident after Gamescom where suddenly MS is the devil for moneyhatting games but omg wow did you see these PS4 games? Bloodborne (moneyhat exclusive from 3rd party company) The Order 1886 (moneyhat exclusive from 3rd party company) The Tomorrow Children (moneyhat exclusive from 3rd party company) I heard Housemarque showed off another PS4 exclusive, throw that one in there too. There is simply a difference in reaction to what happens when company A does it versus company B. Even on NeoGAF right now there is a huge thread about Tomb Raider where they make sure to point out right in the thread title "timed exclusive" and yet for Ninja Theory's new game it's "first to console on PS4" LOL. Personally IDGAF either way. The only thing in this whole scenario that has ever rubbed me the wrong way is Destiny's timed exclusive DLC inside of paid DLC, and even that's not too big a deal because I am not buying the game. |
Wow...you do know that Bloodborne was made by Sony Japan Studios in collaboration with From Studios, funded by Sony using the Ice engine just like Demon souls was, right? The Ip is owned by Sony too.
The Order1886 is owned and funded by Sony by their SECOND party studio Ready at Dawn in COLLABORATION with their FIRST party studio Santa Monica studios. Just like Halo is for the Xbox....(so you can better understand)
Tomb Raider is an ALWAYS (since 1996) MULTIPLAT game which constently sells better on the PS brand (DV sold 450,000 for the PS4 and 117,000 xbox one) since 1996. There has never been a Tomb Raider game that never came out for the PS and PC. MS didnt buy the IP but pays SE to not release on other consoles. there is a difference...
At least get your freaking facts right before you come here spilling nonesense....
