EA is buying Take Two. You can pretty much assume that PS3 exclusives are gone in a snip.

No, they are not. http://www.reuters.com/article/marketsNews/idUKN249193920080225?rpc=44


 Yes they are! Read the article, they bid. And they will get it :)

Mike, seriously, do you believe that a game that started developing 3 years ago is pushing 360 to its limits? Then, what the advanced Unreal Engine is doing? Exploding it? Nope, Mike, I think that there is no point for EVERY big developer to dumb a console considering the current situation in the market (Unless it is Valve of course who dump PS3 for their own ...unidentified reasons). Long Term Perspectives mean NOTHING nowadays. Cash, sure does.



Stupid business move by Rockstar making only PS3 exclusives. Wii and X360 ports would generate alot more money to the company.



@ epinefridis

Even a launch game like Kameo was said to use up up to 83% of potential CPU cycles on the 360. With some optimisation and pushing more horse power out the 360 you can still achieve quite a bit more, but current exclusive games like Mass Effect and the high profile Halo 3 aren't technically challenged for no apparent reason. The 360 is hitting its bottlenecks, not caused by still immature game engines.

Gears of War isn't easily compared to GTA IV, GTA povides a huge open world and Gears provides a linear gaming experience. Of course Gears looks good, but it's also a slow moving game and I really had a feeling of being trapped moving around in a glass box environment right from the start on the 360.



Naughty Dog: "At Naughty Dog, we're pretty sure we should be able to see leaps between games on the PS3 that are even bigger than they were on the PS2."

PS3 vs 360 sales

@ epinefridis

And looking at the long term perspective is crucial to any business. Sometimes huge investments need to be made for much larger gains in the future.

Sony and Rockstar announced some exclusives were coming .Take Two publishes Rockstar but not sure if they own them.



larger gains in the future= dumping 360 and going PS3 exclusive?

Sorry mate, doesn,t make sense...



Well what will Rockstar do if XBox 360 version of GTA IV smashes the PS3 version of GTA IV in sales?

I'm buying 3 coppies of GTA4 in that case.
