[QUOTE="Wii26"] [QUOTE="makingmusic476"]Check out this thread concerning Sony paying the big guns to keep their games exclusive. Basically, they're not, and they are aiming more for smaller, newer devs to create new IPs for the ps3.makingmusic476
Makes perfect sense that's what Microsoft has been doing. A perfect example is little big planet. That game looks awesome. They need to start securing some guys. Like look at Microsoft's game "Portal". Kind of like little big planet for the PS3. I think the future isn't in these on going rehashing series such as DMC, FF, GT, Tekken, etc. It's in new IPs. I mean yeah i'm excited for newer versions of previous series but what was everyones reactiosn to God of War or SoC when it first came out?
Portal is coming out for pc, ps3, and 360, and it is in no way Microsoft's. I'm sorry, but MS is doing the complete opposite of what Sony is doing. They're spending lots of cash to steal exclusives away from the ps3, and trying to get some former ps3 exclusives as timed exclusives fot the 360. There's even a quote from Bill saying that, "Timed Exclusive is considered exclusive to us." They aren't really focusing on new IPs aside from a few in an attempt to win over the Japanese market (as they are unable to win over actual Japanese devs, for the most part). Look at GTAIV. MS worked so hard to get that game to release sumultaneously for both systems, despites Rockstars love of Sony consoles.
Oh didn't know that. It's been mostly advertised for the 360 from what I've seen. I think Blue dragon and Lost Odysessy is pretty impressive from mistwalker. When I think about it now I guess you're right. But still Microsoft did find small companies that did make big hits for their company. But regardless, I prefer what Sony is doing. I'm glad to see new IPs. Microsoft can have many "version #" IPs.Â
