Forums - Sony - Mirror's Edge - PS3 Timed exclusive?

http://www.heise.de/newsticker/Erster-Blick-auf-die-PSP-3000--/meldung/114603

Auch die PS3 soll künftig kontinuierlich mit exklusiven Spielen versorgt werden: "Wir werden kontinuierlich, Monat für Monat neue Titel veröffentlichen, die etwas einzigartiges mitbringen und unterschiedliche Zielgruppen ansprechen. In einem Monat ist es Gran Turismo, im nächsten Singstar, aber auch Third-Party-Titel wie Mirrors Edge von Electronic Arts gehören zu dieser Strategie." Laut Reeves werde Mirrors Edge zunächst exklusiv für die PS3 in diesem Jahr erscheinen. Die PC- und Xbox-360-Versionen würden deutlich später folgen. Die Entwickler von DICE bei Elektronic Arts konnten diese Aussage jedoch nicht bestätigen: "Davon wissen wir bislang nichts. Es ist aber möglich, dass es hier Absprachen auf höchster Ebene gibt, von denen man uns noch nicht unterrichtet hat." Bislang gehen die Entwickler davon aus, dass Mirrors Edge zum Jahresende auf PS3, Xbox 360 und PC gleichzeitig erscheint. (hag/c't)

 

It's been some years since I took German, but I'm sure (and Google traductor confirms it) that there Reeves said that Mirror's Edge would release this year only for PS3, 360 and PC versions will come in 2009. True story? It's possible, given that the game was always showcased in PS3 hardware, that Sony may have secured a timed-exclusivity. Of course, this woudln't be the game I choose for that, as I don't think it'd sell that well, but whatever

I took the whole paragraph to Google, and it's strange, DICE should know wether it's or not timed-exclusive. Though Sony could have worked a deal with EA

The PS3 will be continuously supplied with exclusive games: "We are continuously, month after month publish new titles that bring something unique and different target groups. In a month, it is Gran Turismo, in the next SingStar, as well as Third-Party Title as mirrors Edge by Electronic Arts are part of this strategy. " According to Reeves Mirrors Edge will initially exclusively for the PS3 this year. The PC and Xbox 360 versions would follow much later. The developers of DICE for Electronic Arts this statement could not confirm, however: "That we know so far nothing. But it is possible that there is collusion at the highest level, of which we are still not informed." So far, the developers assume that mirrors Edge at year-end PS3, Xbox 360 and PC simultaneously.




I think if your interpretation is correct that such a statement would be clarified by noon tomorrow. This is not typical of Electronic Arts, and more to the point the bare bones presentation of the game does not strike me as technically limiting. What would be more limiting is the overabundance of titles this holiday season. I honestly do not expect to see this title this year at all.



Very cool if true. This game looks really good!

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

Fixed. Rolling and jumping in first person view, I'm pretty sure there are people that will get sick from that, hell my friend gets a little dizzy from FPS and this is waaay more movement involved. Anyways, this game looks OK, doesn't seem like a MAJOR game so I think that Sony possibly buying Time exclusivity for this game is a dumb move. Now Fallout 3, that'd be a big game or Rock Band 2...oh wait MS beat sony to it.
