I don't know if Bungie could get away with a multiplat game on the PS3 and 360. I could more easily see a PC/360 game, perhaps even a PC exclusive game, but I can't really see Bungie doing a multiplat on the PS3.

and hardcore lemmings will either say :

Halo is still MS exclusive. A word to the wise though, I've notice somelemmings only like Halo as argument fodder and nothing more. In reality, some don't know crap about Halo.

He's talking about the devs. They make Halo games over and over. Sony Santa Monica is responsible for another lil gem called Twisted Metal, among other things. Not saying I agree with him about Bungie, but the GoW cheap shot was unnecessary.Hahadouken

no it isn't

And how was that a cheap shot? it's exactly the same logic

My bad, that's David Jaffe developing both, I forgot that Incognito was the tie between Warhawk and Twisted Metal and not Twisted Metal and God of War.

Point conceded.

[QUOTE="ZIMdoom"]

Hard to say. Honestly, I would be surprised if it did come out for PS3. But at the same time, I can't understand why they would go through the trouble of buying their freedom back from MS's ownership if they didn't want to develop for other consoles. I mean, if they were just going to be exclusive MS developers anyway, why breaking from them?

angelkimne

And besides that, MS still own a share in Bungie; I can't see them making any games on Ps3 right now. PC's a certain possibility though.

Why wouldn't they have creative freedom at MS? They've developed their single biggest game and possibly one of the biggest games ever. Why wouldn't they have creative freedom? That makes no sense.

As for MS owning a share in Bungie, that doesn't mean much unless it is a controlling share. Anything less and they are just looking for the company to make as much money as possible. Plus Sony owns a share in Square/Enix and they are developing games in other consoles.

Bungie's new IP close to having a publisher

Bungie is finally leaving the Halo franchise after Halo Reach. They have been committed to the series for many years now and ODST sort of blew up into something bigger than they ever expected if you take their word for it. So what's next from the studio that saved the Xbox and when will it get here? No one knows, but evidently the new IP is close to having a publsiher.

The game, which isnt' tied to any platform, has been in development for a while now, but very little is known about it. Speaking with Eurogame about the game having a publisher Lars Bakken of Bungie said, "I think internally we'll know sometime soon. I don't handle these things, but I'd imagine we're going to know way before we make the public announcement of who's handling that! But sure, I think those talks are, I guess, close."

That's some real firm confirmation there, huh? Talks to get a publisher may, kind of, be on the way at some point. I find it hard to believe that Bungie will have any trouble finding a publisher unless this new game is actually macaroni artwork, and even then I'm pretty sure someone would produce it as long as they could say "From the developers of Halo" on the box.

Then it's apperent the series is moving in a good direction.

So in other words they are making a PS3 game. Whenever developers/publishers don't outright deny something, it's usually a sign.

Insomniac were said to be making a multiplat horror game some time ago- how interesting it would be if both were confirmed at E3.

I'm absolutely certain it is not in development for PS3 & find the sheer thought of it insane. That said I'm also not the slightest bit excited about the game myself.

Had to fix that.

But yes, fanboys only hype up games because of this stupid console war. It's funny seeing kids list games like Gears of War 3, Resistance 3 and other exclusives, but then watching them posts in other topics how the series is overrated garbage.

[QUOTE="SecretPolice"]

[QUOTE="Hahadouken"] I have to agree. If devs say that something is "a blah blah/yadda yadda game", don't say "there are currently no plans for a", or outright deny it, they are probably hiding something. I dunno about the Bungie deal in particular, but this is historically true of developers. Kojima never said anything ambiguous, he just said that MGS4 was a PS3 exclusive, period. Other devs have avoided flat-out denying things because of the backlash from fans when they turn out to be "liars".Hahadouken

Ya sounded serious there for a minute but I must say I caught myself...after digesting what you said I must conclude no, no you not serious... Amrite ?

Ohh so much here and so little time to post. :P Let me just say yes indeed, MS retained the rights ( you look it up, me too busy ) and it truly says so much you would want a Bungie made game sooo bad on PS3 knowing that dopey MS passed it up for use as an Exc. on 360. :lol:

Ya sounded serious there for a minute but I must say I caught myself...after digesting what you said I must conclude no, no you not serious... Amrite ?

SecretPolice

No...

Bungie if your reading this you need to stay on 360 and I"ll tell you why. First your games are really good, Halo 2 online still is my favorite online game of all time, I think it was set and done better than anything at the time and has been a example for other online FPS's. Part of the reason why Halo sells so well is because it is exclusive to 360 and people did buy it just because of that. There are lots of 360 fans that are loyal to the devs that develop exclusively for the system and they"ll buy any game they dev because of that.

The sony guys, they dont care about bungie. Sure some will buy the game and like it, but they ill never have the loyalty like they will towards naughty dog. You guys will waste money putting the resources in to dev for the ps3, and it return the 360 will take a hit in its quality because you have to take time away from it to learn the ps3. Don"t mess with what you have a goldmine on. HALO FANS WILL BUY ANYTHINING YOU GUYS MAKE.

Lord I hope not. They can keep their dirty, talentless, uncreative, unimaginitive, cheap, has-been hands away from my system.

Master_ShakeXXX

Yes, because Halo: CE didn't practically invent the modern console FPS control scheme.

Hahadouken

K, K thers that now... to just wrap it up tightly in as few of word needed ( the more words used is least impressive to me ) lets just say for matter of argument, the best proof that can be offered and I subjest you agree is past experience.. Bungie and MS partnered, recently seperated, Halo on MS Xbox made Bungie millions and it continues, never have Bungie made a PS game, never has Bungie planned and announced a PS game, No concrete news what so ever on Bungie dev'ing a PS game etc. etc. etc.

If I had more time ( maybe someone here will do it ) I woild nab the Official statement when the MS, Bungie split happened that quoted MS/Bungie argeeing on first refusal right for MS on the Bungie made games after the split.

Oh and sorry again if your offended by some friendly :) banter though that goes on in SW and what makes it a bit more fun then some other places.

Again, Hope .. no harm, no foul and all is well.

The reason Bungie left Microsoft is because Microsoft is pretty lousy when it comes to nurturing and fostering creative and artistic talent.

Bungie figured this out only after being with Microsoft for a few years and nearly getting their own culture irrepairably damaged beyond all return.

Now that Bungie has bought their freedom, why would it be surprising to anyone that they'd want to develop for as many platforms as possible....that's what most developers do anyways.

Modern_Unit

Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't Microsoft own a stake in Bungie still?

In fact Bungie is actually named Bungie LLC (Limited Liability Company)

According to Wiki that means:

A Limited Liability Company or a company with limited liability (abbreviated L.L.C. or LLC or W.L.L) is a flexible form of business enterprise that blends elements of partnership and corporate structures. It is a legal form of business company, in the law of the vast majority of United States jurisdictions, that provides limited liability to its owners. Often incorrectly called a "limited liability corporation" (instead of company), it is a hybrid business entity having certain characteristics of both a corporation and a partnership or sole proprietorship (depending on how many owners there are). An LLC, although a business entity, is a type of unincorporated association and is not a corporation. The primary characteristic an LLC shares with a corporation is limited liability, and the primary characteristic it shares with a partnership is the availability of pass-throughincome taxation. It is often more flexible than a corporation and it is well-suited for companies with a single owner.

Something tells me that Microsoft isn't about to let Bungie start developing for any platform but the 360 and maybe the PC....

Modern_Unit

Fundamental and huge difference,

Naughty Dog is owned by Sony. Bungie is owned by no one.

In fact, Bungie couldn't wait to get away from Microsoft. Obviously, they were unhappy.

All of the 21 or so developers seem quite happy with Sony, on the other hand.

See, Sony is good with nurturing their artists and have many years of practice with this. Remember, Sony has dozens of music Artists and TV and movie studio's and personnel. In other words, Sony's creates artistry.....Microsoft destroys artistry.

Microsoft destroyed FASA

Microsoft gets first dibs, so unless one of their projects looks so bad microsoft won't take it, then theres no way there will be a Bungie game on PS3.
