This is tooo funny with all these 360 owners whining. Get over it and get a PS3.

Some of you people are just heartless. Just STFU man. I have a PS3 and it is still wrong.

I've always wondered why you hate Sony fanboys the most. I think I know why now. Indeed, that comment from whatever is just uncalled for.

Did you even read his comment? It's like you're all blind to arrogance. His comment was wildly inconsiderate whatever a persons position might be. What if some of those 360 owners cannot afford PS3's even at its $299 price point and are stuck with the "beta-like" 360 versions of Namco and Tecmo titles? Why do I dislike Sony fanboys the most? Well, because they are the least empathetic to people who don't have PS3's (mainly 360 owners, but sometimes even Wii owners) and get screwed. How many 360 owners did you see telling PS3 owners to buy 360's when the 360 got the superior version of Fallout 3 and got DLC before PS3 owners? Seriously man.

On a side note, I have probably seen at least 1 360 owner for every multiplat released try to push people to get the multiplat on the 360 because it it the "definitive" version.

I have too, but after I shut that one up I overlook them these days. The PS3 and the 360 tend to have toss ups on which is the "superior" version. Really and truly its about additions like DLC and basically your subjective taste.

The more I think about this I less I care.

Seriously, by the time it reachs North American shores for the PS3 it will be a year and a half later or possibly more, two years if It's released in the summer?

The 360 owners got one of the best RPGs of this gen years early, and the PS3 will get extras since they had to wait as long.

It's a good time to be a PS3 owner.

My only wish is they would make the extras DLC for the 360 even if it costs something, that way all sides could be even.

Magna Carta 2 for PS3 is confirmed by just watching what Namco just did.

This is what it's all about. You could already have played and finished the 360 ToV, or wait a pretty long time for the PS3 ToV with a few extras thrown in. Even if you waited a bit you can pick up the 360 version for dirt cheap now, or still wait more for a full priced PS3 version. It all depends on what's important to you.

I don't have a PS3 (and I have no plans to buy one), so I bought the 360 version a long time ago (last year). Am I pissed off at BN? maybe a little. Do I regret buying the game? No, I don't. Especially after I just watched the ToV movie. Really good movie, BTW!

you should totally buy a PS3 now that it's cheaper =P Uncharted 2 is quiet amazing lol.

Hehe, well I was thinking about maybe picking up a used phat PS3, especially since I've seen them for pretty cheap.(though I would like a BC PS3 if I could find one for cheap) A used 40gb phat PS3 for 19,800 yen and used 80gb phats for just a little more than that. (For reference, the new slim is 29,800 yen) Even if I did buy a PS3 though, I would probably only re-buy ToV if I could find it dirt cheap.

Wonder why the Japanese market doesn't take to X360...this won't make it any easier when developers treat Xbox users as beta testers. Why couldn't they at least make a patch for some features sets in the X360 version? (is that possible?) Anyway, this is just insult to injury now. To every MENTION Xbox 360 in a PS3 booklet of the game shows they used the X360 version as a beta. Now i'm not interested in the game at all, and they've lost alot of my respect as a developer.

All this could have been avoided had they made it MULTIPLATFORM the way it should have been.

It would be interesting to know if the "exclusive content" Sony requires when releasing late ports has to be exclusive forever (which is doubtful. That kind of thing would probably be illegal under contract law) or only for a certain period of time. Because I know that with the PS3 to 360 port of Unreal Tournament III the 360 port got exclusive content but that content was then brought over to the PS3 as DLC later on. If it's perfectly within the terms of the contract to port the exclusive content to 360 at a later date (say a year from the PS3 release), then yes Namco are lazy for not making the content available as DLC. Though who knows. Did they ever port over the PS3 exclusive content from Oblivion and Bioshock to 360? I wouldn't know because I don't have those games.
