????? For you the biggest meltdown is a new IP from a new Studio being exclusive?? Is it because it was the second come of christ and GOTG at the same time? Maybe PS fans were afraid that TF would make X1 outsell PS4 immediatelly.

I agree with you... I just said nobody answered it because most don't remember... I put the crash on the Atari leaving bussiness idea. But could have put it iin a direct way.

People are like that, they would rather see a franchise from a competing platform coming to theirs as a meltdown, or something similar, as being the biggest than things that really matter.

How a game becoming multi platform is considered anything other than great news is beyond me.

For me is bad just when a franchise change exclusivity, other than that is just flaming war ammunition. If at the time FF XIII had been X1 exclusive I would be pissed.

And would be pissed if Soul Reaver 2 was exclusive on Gamecube because if was loving SR1 on PS1 and there was no end, just a "continue on PS2". And were one of the great reasons for me to buy PS2, besides my PS1 dying and GT4 releasing.

It is more like I don't understand what you were trying to imply, because I certainly didn't saw a meltdown, mostly I saw an overgloat (even more from people that said that the game was exclusive because it would be so graphically intensive that the cloud was the only way to run it).

I think you just can't stand that Xbox gamers are/were static about an IP that is/was very hyped.

You think wrong, because I don't like FPS or multiplayer and was happy that my friend that have a X1 could get a game he likes... so I don't see a reason to your comment or even to think it was a meltdown... It's more your dreamyfull wish to make you feel better that other may be jealous of what you have.
