Who cares if a game is a "timed exclusive" or not. It means it's not really exclusive. Are there people out there that actually go, "hey, I can't wait the 6 months for this game to come out on the console that I own - I will have to fork over the several hundred additional dollars to buy the other console just so I can play it a little earlier"?

Coming out on PS3 6 months before 360 means it will increase the sales of this game on PS3. Also if it was the other way around and it came to 360 6 months before PS3 then that would decrease sales a lot (Elder Scrolls, Rainbow Six) so timed exclusives definitely matter. That's why MS got timed exclusives of Ace Combat and Eternal Sonata because that will boost its sales than if it was coming same time or later than on the PS3. |

also if you were choosing between a ps3 and a 360 a timed exclusive on a massive game like this might be a major factor
