PS3 stealing exclusives from Xbox now

[GavinMannion]

So after Microsoft went on a spree of stealing exclusives from under Sony's nose it seems like Sony is doing some payback.

Eternal Sonata, Kane & Lynch and Crossfire all taken from the XBox 360 in one day.

The Xbox is still getting them but they have lost their exclusivity now...

So is the tide turning or have developers just decided to stop handing out exclusives?

I think developers have just realised how ****ing expensive it is to develop games for Next gen consoles

 

[GavinMannion]

I think you may be right, what's the chance of Sony and M$ swapping Halo and Metal Gear before the end of the year?

I doubt it

hahaha... well i guess two can play at the"dirty, sneaky baster game" quite ironic

 

[scotty777]

but it's still possible, sony and Microsoft have no power of what the game producers do with there games (unless there first party, like GT and FF)

Thanks for the info guys.. its very interesting times

Scotty - minor technical note, FF, isn't first Party, it's pub'ed by Square Enix.

and it gives us ps3 users some hope, have any of you read the article in T3? well they tested to see which was the better console, and the ps3 one,

Halo will never move, M$ owns the franchise if I remember correctly.

MGS however is not owned by Sony....

Scotty link please?

Been through this argument hundreds of times before, let's not start it up again - they both have their strengths and weaknesses.

One did it? Sorry I had to.

On-topic: Sony had to start making moves in this area (taking away exclusives). M$ was taking them to the cleaners. I wonder how many exclusives each console will have at the end of the year? Few I think.

 

[GavinMannion]

Don't want to argue it at all I just want to see it. I know T3 rated the PS3 as the most important invention since the television but that is just a stupid statement lambasted by everyone. I was wondering if they had actually done a proper review now.

Exclusivity only fuels fanboys from both sides. As a PC game it bugs the crap out of me that there are alot of titles there that will either never grace my box or only arrive 6 months down the line.

 

[GavinMannion]

Your a PC game

MDK, man that was an awesome game in it's time... or have they made a new one that I don't know about?
