Sorry dude, but your post is almost unreadable, and what I did understand doesn't make much sense. Exclusives have always been a big deal.

I think it's good that most games aren't exclusive now since gamers won't have to buy different consoles to enjoy games that they like.

i like microsofts style. they throw money at eveything but at the same time they like poop out profits. besides the world works like that. devs don;t have "Loyalty" to a system they just go wherever they get paid the most. /world

this generation of consoles is ruined by Microsoft. it started an ugly war that i don't see a good ending to it. you know.. the war of exclusives.badform

huh? Are you serious?

Grabbing exclusives on consoles goes back at least as far as Coleco getting the rights to Donkey Kong.

Please think a little bit before you post....

this generation of consoles is ruined by Microsoft. it started an ugly war that i don't see a good ending to it. you know.. the war of exclusives. with last generation every body was happy his favorite exclusive or nonexclusive game. then 360 successfully got a lot of ps3 exclusives. DMC, silent hill, assassin creed... and to make it even worse the wii being ignored by developers "nintendo's fault'. this will never pass peacefully. by now those corp are trying to turn unecxlosive games into exclusive to their consoles. that is UNACCEPTABLE wt.. haze is done I also heard that fatal frame 4 will be exclusive to the wii. what is next this is terrible.

thanks god.i was afraid about prince of Persia at least it is on tow consoles.

All its going to do is make Sony and Nintendo to pay for exclusives. Most of us here knows that Sony doesnt pay for them, which is why when Mr GreenPaper comes to the party, they invite him to.

rushed out of the gate so they have chance in the console race but didn't mind giving away the most unreliable console ever made. yes much worse than the ps 2.

i hate the fact they are a software company but have almost no first party. instead they though money at third party dev's then they try to take all the credit for it. (gear of war ect.)

i hate the fact they have to tell the dev teams on what games they can make and not to make. (heavily sword team was going to be on 360 but microsoft told them to scrap it and make a fps. team ninja said it them selfs.

i mean come on now throughing 50 million dollars so they can have exclusive download for gta 4. it is not the fact they paid them to do it it the fact they can through away 50 million just for that without a blinking an eye.

So, I think you are saying that you are mad the PS3 is not living up to it's promises. So developers are going elsewhere. What does this have to do with MS starting a war.

P.S. The first word in sentences are capitalized.

Why would Team Ninja know about Heavily Sword? It is Ninja Theory who made Heavily Sword, also do you have a link to MS wanting them to make a FPS

2 games that have nothing to do with Microsoft. What exactly was the point of this thread then? You're talking about how Microsoft started a war and don't even name examples of how they did it.

sorry get those mixed up. the interview from the the guy from ninja theory. he said (i promise im not making this up at work right now and don't feel like searching for it) when they first was trying to find a publisher for heavily sword they seen microsoft first he said they loved the look of it but why does she have a sword. then he said use the same engine instaid to make a shooter maybe not a fps but a shooter. after that he said he was going to close the team down because they could not find a publisher until they sat down with sony at a showing that small dev teams go to to find a publisher.

Thats sony's fault for making a difficult console to design for.

With high costs, small userbase, and extremely high price tag

Devs had to go multiplat or focus more on 360.

It put the exclusive content into the right hands. 1st/2nd party developers.

lets see Microsoft and Sony spend there money to sell there systems.

Games exclusive to Wii are understandable because it is not at the same level or considered comparable. While the rest of your statment is very hard to understand but exclusives are good it adds to the compotition.

MS started an ugly war the war of exclusives? Listen up really good hear. Exclusives wars have always existed in video games. Hell don't you remember Street Fighter II? This is what companies do. You secure more good games for your platform so that they can't appear on other platforms. Because we all know the platform with the best games wins right?

So Wii being ignored by developers is Nintendo's fault. So why isn't Microsoft successfully getting a lot of PS3 exclusives Sony's fault?

I swear why is it that MS is blamed for everything these days. I mean sure they have done things to get the finger pointed at them but this thread is way off.
