#1 NGII was published by Microsoft, and that ended up on the PS3. This is what happens when the dev owns the IP, not MS, which brings me back to my second point, Bioware owns the IP. And have said they can do anything they want with it. 

So I don't see any exclusivity deal that would block a PS3 ME2. 

@perpride

They also put Dragon Age on the PC and 360.....and PS3. But don't try to bring the PC into this, because you're one of the people that when we talk about exclusives, you exclude the PC when PS3 fans say "it's not exclusive to Xbox, it on PC!". But hey, it seems like you're another "Keep the 360 exclusives exclusive, and multiplat all the PS3 exclusives" kind of person. If a company makes a former exclusive go to multiple platforms, it's a "damn good decision", but when you just said "mulitplatform is a good idea", you also respect a 3rd party devs choice to make a game, that for all intensive purposes should be multiplatform (given the status that it's from EA now, who multiplats everything, and Bioware have on multiple occassions said how they own the IP and can do whatever they want with it), exclusive. What kind of hypocrisy is that?

NOT AT ALL!!! Dude you must have me mistaken for CGI-Quality!!! I'm a HUGE fan of multiplatform games. I think it's an amazing idea for developers to open their game up to a wider audience, no matter what console.

If you check my post history, you will see that I'm a huge fan of:

Gears for PS3.

Mass Effect for PS3.

MGS4 for 360.

No More Heroes for HD.

No joke, I'm a huge fan of going multiplatform, especially in the current climate of the industry.

I think you should look up No More Heroes Paradise....Sadly Ubisoft isn't trying to publish it for North America.

Just to show my support, I'd buy it day one(assuming it's "budget priced"), even if it had lower review scores.

Also, for anyone in this thread still thinking Square made a stupid decision bringing the game to 360, you should look at what Brett posted in the news section today. If you are lazy, I will tell you. If we only count PS3 sales, FFXIII had less fw sales than FFXII. But when you add in the 360, FFXIII is on track to have a better sales openning week than FFXII was. According to the owner of this site, that is clearly because it is multiplatform: http://news.vgchartz.com/news.php?id=7369&mp=1

One thing though that we don't know is that how many of those who bought it on the 360 would have gotten a ps3 if the game were not available on the 360.  I haven't look myself but we do at least partialy have a way to compair and that's just how 13 did in Japan compaired to 12.  Although I agree with you that going multiplatform is a benefit to gamers and well as the publishers of those games.
