I wonder how hard of a time MS is going to have getting timed exclusives after this. This was a huge bomb pretty much every franchise puts themselves at risk now signing any sort of exclusivity with MS. MS better hope this game turns around and does amazing on the rest of the systems that way devs  will feel like it's less of a risk.

 

I have to imagine people will be less willing to sign on for a timed exclusive. At the very least, it'll cost microsoft more.

 

It's really just asshole behavior... I rather doubt the knowledge that one console is getting a game a bit earlier than another has been the deciding factor in anyone's choice of system. All it serves to do is piss off a bunch of people and strain the relations between the fans and the devs.

I can't say I really care either way cause I'm almost never in a rush to play games and often I have a long list of games I need to beat. With that said your right timed exlucsives have never ever even made me think twice about which console to choose. The only game I can think of that could get me to do that is a new Mass Effect game.
