Ubisoft just released the boxart, and I noticed it did not have the "Only on Xbox 360" logo. or is it because it is also on PC?

Those "Only on Xbox 360- for a while" logos don't mean anything.

Forget Boxart, didn't BIOSHOCK say ONLY ON XBOX? I know LOST PLANET and GEARS OF WAR say ONLY ON XBOX...but that's obviously wrong.

That's the problem with not owning a property, the company can pack up and move on. M$ knows this, how do you think they got GTA4, DMC4, and so many other PS games?

Most likely, if you look at UBISOFT's History, and look at SPLINTER CELL's history, this will most likely be a 6 month, or even a year timed exclusive. It's not a big deal, I will be getting it on 360, but that's just what I know.

I remember these boards back when SC 1 came out, and how it was touted exclusive, and eventually ported.

UBISOFT is like any company, they will say yes to timed exclusivity for a check, but how long depends on that Check Amount.

[QUOTE="SolidTy"]Forget Boxart, didn't BIOSHOCK say ONLY ON XBOX?IronBass
My copy of Bioshock says "Only on Xbox 360 and Windows".


Well, I'm glad I asked...my point is that BIOSHOCK came to PS3 eventually (Which as we know isn't 360 or Windows), so even if SC saied ONLY on Xbox, it wouldn't matter.

However, to further prove my point :

Gear of War 1 says ONLY ON XBOX

Lost Planet says ONLY ON XBOX

and that's two games I own and checked just now. So, ONLY ON XBOX, really doesn't mean to much.

I did check my copy of BIOSHOCK, and you are right, it does say that on my limited edition, but it got ported away all the same. Could Catch though, IronBass! :) (I'm really glad I asked, something in my memory wasn't quite sure. )

Lost Planet and Gears of War are better examples of the PHRASE "Only on XBOX" not meaning anything.

BIOSHOCKs a great example of the phrase "Only on Xbox 360 and Windows" not meaning anything. :)

No, I'm not saying you did, at all, man. I'm talking to all of SW with my post.

Thanks for your answer, I was just making a point about that Phrase "ONLY ON XBOX" not meaning anything, originally.

I didn't want my point to get lost whilst you gave me an answer, so thank you kind sir.

It's not an exclusive. I understand MS calling it exclusive even if its not, but sites like GS and GameTrailers should not do the same.

No one will have that link, that's part of a NDA between M$ and UBI. We are not supposed to speculate or even wonder, the whole point is this is an exclusive 360 game for 360, and that's that...if you are M$.

As gamers, we can look at the big picture and see what M$ been up too, but right now, that game is 100% only on 360, fo sho.

Any breaking of the NDA would cost UBI Lots of money, and they arne't about to do that! No way.

They go by the logic that they are "Microsoft exclusives". Just because in System Wars we don't accept that term it does not mean the rest of the world shouldn't.

Bah I hate this argument Microsoft owns windows yes but they do not own PC. This spirals into the if it's on two different platforms it's exclusive argument

It's funny me and casey were in an arguement a few weeks ago with people who apparently made this company wars, Completely disregarded the pc as something that played games. I mean I cant beieve people call games console exclusive. Wait and see if SC doesnt come to PS3 it will be console exclusive to 360

One things for Sure...

Bioshock being a PC and 360 exclusive didn't stop Bioshock from appearing on PS3.

M$ exclusive's existing or not.

I guess the answer is no to link showing any proof at all of Ubi considering a PS3 version.

No I completely agree. These devs want one thing in the end a return profit and to break even i dont think they care much about loyalty.

So there is a slim chance then. Thx for the link. I was not going to play the guess work of a bunch of people on a forum about the game. Same thing was said about EA and Mass Effect and we see where that is going. That is why I wanted a link. and the Ubi guy said "that may change in the future"

Do you honestly believe that? Looking at Ubi's record, it's pretty evident that the chance of a PS3 version is big.
