I dunno, it depends how much people actually love bungie. As opposed to the halo IP.

I think it could result in an extra boost, but I don't think one developer can other a console that much outside of nintendo. Because the PS3 can't get halo. So it would have to be a new IP.

I personally don't like bungie or halo either, but I know I'm not the majority in the USA.

Edit: I answered the topic and now. activision has no reason to go non-multiplatform. Because Bungie Fanatics most likely bought the xbox.  But then again, it is activision. And if anything if you compare it to MW2 that sold better on xbox. So sony would have to pay activision a ludicrous amount, for a game that may not even be bigger than killzone 2.

halo is out of the question as MS owns it.

 

Bungie could develop something else too besides FPS but i have no idea what bungie would do

 

i don't think it will be fully exclusive.if timed exclusive,sony would pay around $50-100m atleast for the first game.it could be more for the second if the first is a big hit.

 

it could be also that Activision acted quickly and brought in Bungie in to protect Activision image and Infinity Wards Substitute but not for the COD franchise.

Yeah, internet would instantly melt.

Even now, the 360 fans hate posts against Bungie going multi are insane on some websites.

I don't get the point of this theoretical - it has already been confirmed that Bungie will be working on multiplat games, and Activision doesn't really make exclusive games (yes, I'm sure if you trawl the games database you'll be able to find some insignificant games that are exclusive, and maybe a few Wii games that couldn't be made on the PS360, but nothing of note) We might as well ponder what would happen if MS, Nintendo and NASA all diverted 100% of their resources into making PS3 games - it just ain't gonna happen no matter how much you might wish it.

That's what makes Sony great; they make their own great games so they don't need exclusivity deals.

This is not happening, Activision will use Bungie's brandname as a cash cow by putting their game on as many systems as they can.....Activision won't let this opportunity go to waste.

I have only one thing to say to you OP..something you love saying to other people as we saw 1 week ago:

A little more time on this site will help you predict a lot better!

oh i didn't predict it.alot of difference between saying what Sony should do to improve their NA score and predicting Sony will do it.

And what are you  a protector of that other poster,did e bribe you and blackmail you or just a plea of please come fight for me Darth

so i would like to say it to you.

 

You would learn how to distinguish better after a little more time on this site

None of your post makes sense.



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

Couldn't be further from the truth (not denying that Sony makes good games)

 

The reason all of us old gamers know exactly how the PS3 vs 360 battle will play out is because we've seen it before. The PS1 destroyed the N64 despite Nintendo having a vastly superior first party due to Sony having the capital and the daring to moneyhat big games. I'm not sure if you've heard of it, but FFVII was purchased in such a fashion

 

Edit - :(

wasn't that, um FFVII?

:D

But Isn't Naughty Dog the same as that? Media Molecule isn't because it's part of sony, but when little big planet came out, media molecule wasn't first party either.

Shh - I had a few glasses of wine and am on VGChartz until I feel confident to get down to my physics assignment.

cod was exclusive to the PC at starting

 

i get your point after the recent success of Activision it looks alot less likely
