So is LBP an exclusive or not?

who cares?

nhh18 and toast_burner, when you have the time -- I'd like you address my reply. :)

:lol: Well played>tagyhag

I got a good kick out of it as well. :P

With the PSP version coming out, with the same title and gameplay concept, will LBP remain exclusive? I mean we already don't count MLB exlusive so it only makes sense not the count LBP...

Mario2007

Since when do consoles and handhelds count for determining whether a game is exclusive or not? The two games have never in the history of gaming been close to each other.

And secondly, why would a game going from the Sony PS3 to Sony PSP somehow no longer be considered a SOny or PS exclusive? If you want to play the game, you have to buy a Sony system/handheld. Sony and the PS brand profit. That is one company and therefore one exclusive. It is nowhere close to the whole 360/PC exclusive debate because people can chose between a 360 and PC therefore they are competing platforms. ALso, while MS makes windows, not everybody has to buy windows...most PCs just come with it for free initially. AND, there are many PC makers out there who will profit if a certain 360 game like Halo shows up for PCs. So MS/360 isn't guaranteed to benefit if a 360 game is released on a PC.

Seriously, this thread is ridiculous. Whoever thought of this deservesa fail.

I wouldn't say that if I were you, MS exclusives destroy Sony exclusives in terms of quality/quantity (But we still don't count them, which we should keep it this way)

You're telling me that's a false statement?

ive got plenty of time :)toast_burner

Yes it is. For the same reason Mario Kart Wii is a Wii exclusive even though there is a DS version.

Just when system wars couldn't get any worse. You guys want to play this stupid petty game. Fine. I won't. Sad. It's so damn sad. Bread_or_Decide

The main differences between Halo3 and halo 1is that halo 3 has Better graphics, more content, new campaign with different levels and story and some slight tweaks to the gameplay.

LBP PSP has a new campaign with different levels and story, less content, plays slightly differently and has worse graphics then LBP. so it must bea spin off, not a port or remake but a different game.

There for LBP is still ps3 exclusive andLBP PSP is a PSP exclusive

It is exclusive to Sony brand and so is MLB saying its not is silly.

From what I've read, LBP on PSP is the same in title only. It's a whole different game, which makes sense, as the PSP and PS3 hardware are completely different.

Different Game, Different Levels, Different Features, Differnet Online Implementation, etc.

This wouldn't be an issue if Sony named the game LittleBigWorld for PSP!, but since it's the same name, people here are getting confused. I can see SONY is trying to create a Brand, so good for them.

I guess to know for sure, we will have to wait and play it.

Sony Exclusive...

Think about that for a second. "Sony Exclusive"...

The amount of hypocrisy on this forum is truly astounding sometimes. Just a few months ago mentioning "Microsoft Exclusive" would get you burned at the stake, and now, we're terming "Sony Exclusives". In the case of LBP, we don't really know how similar the versions are, so lets hold off on this argument for a bit, alright?

From what I've read, LBP on PSP is the same in title only. It's a whole different game, which makes sense, as the PSP and PS3 hardware are completely different.

This wouldn't be an issue if Sony named the game LBP:Funny face, but since it's the same name, people here are getting confused.

its the exclusive-less lemmings another attemp to grasp as straws because the 360 lineup is so weak.

this thread/posts gave me the same feeling as when Ps3 fanboys argue against 360 fanboys when they list the 360/PC titles when comparing games libraries..

Lets say LBP now is not a 'PS3' exclusive what does that change??? nothing.. if there are discussions comparing 360 vs PS3 games libraries LBP can still be used since its not available on 360..

Also as many pointed out the PSP version will be different in many ways but since it has the same name many will say LBP is not just available on PS3 now therefore not a PS3 exclusive..

[QUOTE="nhh18"]

[QUOTE="blue_hazy_basic"] Windows doesn't come free, its in the price. How are MS windows games in competition with 360 games? Both are endorsed on MS platforms. It isn't all PC games that are being talked about (at least by me) its just specifically "Games for Windows". I agree that a game that differs significantly from one platform to another ie PS3 to PSP is an exclusive, but for cows to say games with minimal differences are Sony exclusives, but games on MS only platforms aren't MS exclusives, well thats just SW hypocrisy at its finest. Its one or the other. Both are exclusives or neither, you can't have it both ways. Its simple, but nothing ever is in SW is it?blue_hazy_basic

YAY! Another day in SW in a popular thread full of people debating about stuff without proper facts. This is why I love SW. :roll:

GRAW on 360 and PC are different in lots of ways, if you played them like I have, you would prefer the 360 version over that PC version because of numerous differences. There is no way a sane person can say they're the same, or prefer the PC version to the 360 one. LMAO if you think those versions are the same. I agree with Warhawk, I played it.mitu123

LOL

If you are a true Ghost Recon fan there is no way you will prefer the the 360 version over the PC version. The same for GRAW 2. GRAW for consoles is basically the same game as R6 Vegas but in third person, and that game is a joke too for true R6 fans.

I think so. I would normally have 2 general categories. "Home games" (consoles + PC), and "Portable games" (gameboy/DS/PSP). If a game is cross-platform i.e. on a console and portable, I would still call it exclusive with respect to, for example, the "Home" market.
