Forums - Microsoft - Why Isnt The Latest Tom Clancy Game Not On PS3?

Both teams that make the Splinter Cell series have done poorly designed ports of every game on a Sony platform in comparison to it's Microsoft counterpart. They haven't gotten it right four times already, sales have suffered on the inferior ports, SC is quite possibly the only multiplat of last gen that sold better every time on the Xbox than on the PS2, and just about every SC has had timed exclusivity for MS platforms anyways. Frankly, if they can't get it right, why bother trying any longer? Do any PS3 owners want another buggy shitfest like your port of Double Agent? I think not.

oh your talking about Double Agent, i had that one on PS2, why did they bother porting it on PS3? xD

btw another reason , or atleast i think is better is Competition, which game is closely compared to Splinter Cell? MGS!

Like Forza Vs GT

it would be nice to have competition :]



as long as they get the series back on path chaos theory is still the high point right now. DA sucked

This tells you why its a 360 exclusive.

Ah haha. Nice one. Corporate double speak. Companies have one motive and one motive only: to make a profit. Ubisoft's sole reason for going 360 exclusive is because they believe they will make more profit by doing so, and they probably will judging by sales on Sony platforms relative to porting costs. That is perfectly OK, don't get me wrong, there is no reason for a company to feel obligated to gamers to deliver a product on any particular console. But even if they can't be honest about it for PR reasons at least we inject a bit of honesty into these matters.

The only link of the heart [between corporations] is a love for money.

Edit: Though I should give a nod to the creative folks behind games and acknowledge that being able to optimise for a particular platform and squeeze as much performance as possible out of it really helps the creative juices and probably leads to a better product. So in that respect I'm happy for the people who will actually make the game.

I mean Rainbow 6 is multi as is plenty of others so why not the latest one?

Conviction I think it is called.

Are you talking about HAWX it's out now and it's ON the PS3 also silly goose.



Well SC sells a lot better on 360, and ps3 can't have all the ps3 exclusives.
