Forums - Microsoft - Why you should want a 360.

The only thing that would make me buy my own 360 is if Star Ocean 4 was 360 exclusive. And maybe another FF7 spinoff.

Your serious?

Here is a post from Dodoce explaining why there is a reasonable chance Star Ocean could come to the 360.

Dodoce:

Thelack of confirmation actually bodes ill for this being an exclusive PS3 title. Sony has been trading on potential for so long that it would be contrary to their interest to have a title undisclosed. They need big confirmations now and more of them to avoid the PS3 enjoying the same horrific sales it saw last summer. Were this title PS3 exclusive we would know now, and Sony would be advertising the hell out of it.

The contrary view for 360 exclusivity is that Microsoft would actually not want the titles platform disclosed and neither would the developer. Microsoft doesn't need JRPG confirmations they will have ten before the year is out. However if they get consumers excited and then drop the bomb that makes it harder for consumers in Japan to dismiss the title. Better to get consumers in the frame of mind that they really want the title before telling them they have to make a deal with the devil.

What is most interesting to me is how Microsoft has played this generation in Japan they haven't just gotten developers on their side for one title it is two or three. Which to me says that Microsoft probably bought game packages in bulk before this generation even began.

Mistwalker is obvious, but then look at Bandai Namco, and now here we have Tri-Ace Square. That would most definitely fit the existing pattern. Just a thought but if Microsoft did purchase package exclusivities before this generation then Star Ocean would most definitely fit that mold.

Wait...lol what?

Starcraft's sig:

Console exclusive AAA (90%+) games (metacritic):

Wii: 6

Xbox 360: 6

PS3: 0

 

DmeisterJ's sig:

Exclusive AAA (90%+) games (metacritic):  Wii - 4    XBOX 360 - 1   PS3 - 0

....

And from the very same site too...

One of you seriously failed math class.

 



 

Dmeister isn't counting games that are also on last gen consoles or PC's. Starcraft is.

 Starcraft is doing console exclusive games that means that games that appeared on PC are counted, and ports from last-gen consoles count too.

Wii has two titles over 90 that are ports from the sixth-gen.  Resident Evil 4 and Zelda:TP

And XBOX 360 has five titles also on PC, Gears, Bioshock, Mass Effect, and two more I forgot about.

Then I'm going to have to go with DmeisterJ's sig.

*frowns at starcraft*

Mass Effect is NOT on the PC.  I have already told DMeisterJ this but he refuses to change his signature.

And Dallinor, stop frowning, my signature is for those that are exclusively console gamers, or cannot afford a gaming PC (I fit the first category, I just can't find the gaming time to justify a gaming PC's expense, especially as it isn't a platform for most of the RPG's I like).

Mass Effect is NOT on the PC yet.  I have already told DMeisterJ this but he refuses to change his signature.

 Mass Effect will be on PC in a month or so, right?
