Platimun Games seems to be in Nintendo's pocket already.

Yeah. It might just be the back to back Wii U game announcements, but it does kind of feel that way. And I don't think their appearance on the PS4 Wall of Third Party Support necessarily means that Platinum is working on a PS4 game right now since those lists generally just show people who are registered developers, but I sure hope they are!


Just realized I misspelled "Platimun" haha. Sounds like a Pokemon.

Anyway, it will be nice to see what Platinum can do with the new hardware if they do go the PS4 route. I imagine their next title won't be releasing for some time, though. They've probably been stretched pretty thin between developing Bayonetta 2, Revengeance, and W101.

Soooo Sony taking a page from MS playbook regarding timed exclusivity. Im sure MS can play this game much better though.


No money involved. Which part you dont understand?

I understood after the first person quoted me.....maybe if you scrolled down past my origional post ud see that



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

lol the Microsoft fans are so funny. They can't imagine why a game would be exclusive to a platform without the developer having received money for such a move.

Its just me who said it. I appreciate you thinking my opinion = several opinions, but alas I am but one person :P

Oh but you won't be the only one. Wait a little for other 360 fans 'honest' comments to pour in ;)

Yeah, I think so, too. From their history they seem capable of doing about three games at once, so it will probably be a while before they're ready to show anything new.

I appreciate your flip sid eof the coin bias. But for me anyways, I wait for about 3 people to say something similar before I play the "generalize" card.

I'm curious how this will run on the Wii U since it is initially being designed for the PS4 (well I assume based on his comment).



 

Playstation = The Beast from the East

Sony + Nintendo = WIN! PS3 + PSV + PS4 + Wii U + 3DS

I'm glad it is a timed exclusivity. Seriously, I'm jealous. I loved Braid. And I am really looking forward this new project!

i am sure if you look at the last 5 years you will also find playstaion fans who said the same just about xbox exclusive arcade games or nintendo fans who said that about playstation or xbox exclusive games.

there is no difference between those "fans", you find them for every console. 

it's like i would say now "sony fans and their generalizations" just because you do it. if i would say that it would be also only a generalization.

do you think sony fans are another kind of human as microsoft fans or what?

So.... he prefers PS4's design direction better than a leaked spec console he admits to pretty much know nothing about, cool story bro.
