Alright, explain to me why a third party publisher would forego giving the PS3 version of a multiplatform game a more or less worthless bonus that would net them a benefit when it comes to royalty fees. It's more reasonable to assume that Sony says that they won't be offering benefits and that's why third parties (in this case THQ) make the 360 and PS3 version equal. |
If Sony (A ) can't or won't offer benefits , Who then came up with the extra content idea and why was it announced in the first place ,it seems to me that MS policy in regards to on disc content in the case of Battlefield 1943 saw that derailed , and in Saint Rows reversal , more along the lines of we are your biggest market, in both cases what was being offered wasn't a big enough deal or had any real gains to offset damaging relations with MS , The problem seems to stem from the companys involved thinking that this was small potatos and they didn't expect a backlash.
Research shows Video games help make you smarter, so why am I an idiot

Why hurt the loyal users who've bought the series since day 1 or cut content for the biggest userbase in their biggest market? I'm glad they broke their promise but it would have been better if they didn't make promises they couldn't keep. |
I'd figure the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection would keep you busy enough.

Yeah, you'd think that......but like Galactus, my hunger is nigh insatiable. I've already got Smackdown lined up for next Tuesday and Zelda on the 20th....and Mario Kart in December. Then, and only then, will I be satisfied.
Until Mass Effect, Tomb Rader, Devil May Cry, Kid Icarus, blah, blah, blah, blah.........

It could be a simple measure of "We don't want to alienate either side of our fanbase".
Business wise, that makes great sense....does it not? For THQ, Why potentially piss off and antagonize people whom you depend on to pay your bills and keep you in business?
| PearlJam said: If Sony hadn't spent so many millions and millions of dollars in the 90's moneyhatting Nintendo and Sega into the ground, they wouldn't be broke and could buy their way to the top again. This is karma for all the shit they used to get away with when they had $40 Billion+ and Nintendo had about $1 Billion, Sega had even less money. Sony brought all this dirty shit into the console business and now there's a bigger asshole in town with deeper pockets. Serves them right. |

What Microsoft can do, is threaten to not allow said title on their console. That threat in and of itself can, and likely will, inspire removal of exclusive content. |
did you guys forget assassin's creed revelations
