Okay

But the actual exclusive content doesn't sell anything and just annoys most people

I don't know, it kind of worked on me... I think... 

When I was debating between buying a ps4  or xone first this gen, the exclusive content on destiny was actually a fairly big factor in my decision, as destiny was my most anticipated game.  Was it the only factor I considered, no, but it was a factor in my buying decision.  People can be annoyed that companies do this, but their research must show that it has some effect or they wouldn't bother doing it...

Why? Look at what you're getting. 1 map, 1 mission and a few weapons and skins.

How big is this game going to be? Huge! These little things are not going to make any difference at all

lol, yeah, I know.  However, this was WAY before they actually announced what the content was.  Just the idea of me missing out on anything destiny at the time was a factor for me.  



Around the Network

I don't like it when Microsoft does it, so I won't praise it when Sony is doing the same thing. Both companies are in the wrong because exclusive content like this really doesn't move consoles, it just gives gamers less content if they're the ones to have the version without that exclusive content.

I will say that there's a lot of bias in this thread though with words like apologist being thrown around towards people who point the finger at Microsoft starting it. Both are just as bad. Sony getting all the hate when they do something like this doesn't change the fact that Microsoft constantly did it last gen.

I just can't think of any time when there has actually been any worthwhile console exclusive content

"Destiny's PlayStation-Exclusive Content Detailed"




That's not what you said, you said "People cheered whenever sony announced exclusive content", not just destiny..MS conference weas the same..


You are completely missing the point. I only spoke about Sony's conference because this is a topic about exclusive content for Sony. Naturally that made me think about the Sony E3 press conference.

 My post has got nothing to do with MS. How do you even know if i watched the MS press conference?

Just because i was negative towards Sony DOES NOT MEAN i need to balance it out with "oh and MS does it too". By that logic everytime we criticize one company we need to also give a special mention of every other company that has done something similar...err no. That's completely illogical.
