I hope a lot of XBONE owners decide to not purchase it.

Sony might be winning with the PS4, but they're losing in the games department. 

They have no big exclusive games coming out. Wii U has Captain Toad, Bayonetta 1 & 2, Hyrule Warriors and Super Smash Bros. 4. XBONE has that amazing Halo collection edition and Sunset Overdrive. Sony has a remake from a year old game. LBP3 is also on PS3. 

What an utterly pointless and off topic post is this? You sound extremely bitter.

Yes, buying exclusive content is very pathetic. Instead of buying exclusive content from third parties, Sony should focus on getting their own games released. It's very much on-topic. It's like Sony is trying to cover up their own lack of games with this. Invest in your own games, not in timed DLC or advertising rights.

You should also be bitter over such low standards.

i doubt sony put a dime into indies (that aren't ps+ titles).  jonathan blow said very openly that no money exchanged hands,.. that timed exclusivity to a  platform was unavoidable because of his team's small size couldn't support all platforms with launch parity.  the ps4 was the platform he choose to launch first for a lot of reasons including ease of development and sony's great working relationship with indies.

wrt destiny,.. that was obviously paid but MS has the same thing in CoD and evolve and fifa and dead rising 3 and titanfall and sunset overdrive.  if one side is going to be called-out there typically has to a disparity in behavior. 

 

OT - i'd have to got back to the E3 conference footage but i think the statment on stage was something like "destiny will always have more content on playstation".   i wouldn't be surprised if the content that launches this year on playstation comes to xbox the same day a fresh batch of content comes to playstation.  in that way, a year of exclusivity could make sense.

 

That would be hilarious. Wait an entire year to get the timed content and on the same day another year long timed content drops. The meltdown on the Bungie forums would be even more priceless.

nope, i was full of shit.  nothing of the such was said at E3. 



Anyone besides me thinks all this timed exclusive dlc is just dull. Both Sony and Microsoft can use that money for other things.



 

So pretty much once every one has moved on to other games then. Guess I'll just pretend that it doesn't exist then



I am pro-sony and all, but am I the only one that thinks all this "timed exclusive" stuff has to just stop? It does no good for the gamers. If some is going to buy destiny said person is either going to buy a PS4 or already has one. What good does this do selling less of a game to everyone else?

Ah well, guess we have MS to thank for this kinda nonsesne.

Yup, GTA, Elder Scrolls, COD, Sony waited patiently to strike back and what better way than using the company that gave micro their biggest franchise now making an even bigger franchise and leaving them out of stuff like this.



Thanks jlmurph!

Low standards? What fucking bullshit.

Making the right deals with the right third parties is not pathetic, it's just intelligent business, MS has been doing this very successfully with Cod for years now. Also who says they are not focussing on getting their games released? Just because they don't have that much for 2014 (cause we all know that Nintendo had no problem delivering their games last year, right? It's only because pathetic Sony doesn't focus enough on finishing their games)? They have 2 games scheduled for Q1 2015 already, so I'd wager that they are very much focussing on getting stuff done.

What was the wii U first year like? Xbox one and ps4 both have a crap holiday lineup, so what can we take from this? That just maybe you shouldn;t expect a super star lineup from a system's first year.

And people thought MS were bad for getting COD DLC 1 month early lol

No don't get it twisted. MS is bad. They started this nonsense. And just so you know they didnt start it with COD. They started it with GTA4.

I am not gonna lie, I hate MS idea of good business. We also have them to thank for why we pay for something called PS+ now too. At least sony had the decensy to not tie services that you were already paying for behind the paywall.

Time exclusives games, times exclusive dlc, timed exclusive betas..... all bad if you ask me. Just wrong, but its the kinda ring MS fights in so now we have to watch everyone else do it too. Sigh......



Awesome news for PS4 owners. I was expecting 30 days or at the most 6 months. But 1 year at least for this is great for PS4. Sony really got proactive this gen. To think that prior to the PS4 reveal everyone was running with the rumor that Destiny was X1/X360 exclusive. Boy was those insiders wrong. That white PS4/Destiny bundle will sell boat loads.
