COD games have a month timed exclusive map pack. Not an issue at all. Homefront has an exclusive map for the 360 and DLC which is probably just a month but it could be more. If it's just a month it's not a big issue but this isn't COD. It's a new IP. COD games are worth the wait but who really cares for Homefront. It might be a good game but with the bullshit exclusive map to the 360 and waiting for map packs, fuck it. It's not worth the wait. This is going to be as worth it as the COD games are so it's not worth waiting for time exclusive DLC. Later on, I might potentially get this but it's not worth waiting for DLC for THIS game and it's messing a map.


Its a map dude, probably a multiplayer map, i doubt your gaming experience will differ that much, and with the dlc, most likely for after you finish the game so yeah not really going to ruin the game experience. No reason not to get the game imo.

Josh does not approve, I say Microsoft starts making new IPs. Until then I  by by multiplats for the company that makes more new IPs that I enjoy.

Pass on this one. Not going to support a non fully featured PS3 game. If I ever get this it will be used so I don't support these developers who are shitting on the PS3.

Yes because having a timed DLC absolutely shits all over PS3 version of the game.

You should avoid CODs too then. And Valve, although they're buddyng up with Sony now, so it's all good there.

Do you even read the shit you spout? You saying it like they took away half the story line and made it 360 exclusive, get out of the nutshell and realize how vain your argument is. It's like you're stuck in the reel in 2008, when developers DID shit on the PS3, well those days are past.

Why would I get a game that isn't fully featured? With the combination of an exclusive map and timed exclusive DLC, it's a deal breaker for me at the moment unless this ends up being amazing which I doubt........ If It's great, I'll end up getting it down the line but this is the worst way to introduce a new multi-platform IP. Not to mention, the ridiculous line up of games for the PS3 this year. So it's a combination of all of those things. If you have a 360 or you're very interested in Homefront regardless and it's one of your most anticipated games then I would understand why you want this game. imo though, this is a deal breaker through "exclusivity" features and there are far better games to get this year.

Oh my god. Reread that paragraph and realise how vain you are. The f'ing difference is like a month, a month of exclusivity does NOT mean that the game is "not fully featured". Not fully featured would imply that there is a part of the single player campaign missing, or there is a major difference between the different versions. Your point is invalid in this, if you want to be vain in this case, fair enough. I struggle to think of anyone that will share your somewhat rubbish view on things. 

I am actually riled in disbelief over how stupid your argument is, I'd understand it if there was a question of a whole map PACK being exclusive to X360 without any chance of it coming to PS3.

Did you not read my whole post? Why would I care about this when there are much better games to buy this year? Okay so yes my comment of it not being fully featured is incorrect, I admit. But it's the exclusivity that is bullshit and like I previously mentioned, there are much better games coming out this year.

Yeah there are exclusive games coming out, but there is not always a guarantee that this game isn't much better than anything else on the market, you can't judge it before it's even finished. The only factor that you're judging it on is the fact that MS managed to get there first and secure some somewhat exclusive DLC, that has no relevance to the game whatsoever, I mean COD BO on X360 gets the DLC a month earlier, have the PS3 sales slowed down at all? No. No one does care.

ZOMG.

So 360 game and word exclusive can be used until gears 3 comes out?!?


Castlevania HD is still exclusive to the 360 and getting more exclusive maps and characters!



It's just that simple.
