Splinter Cell: Conviction not exclusive?

[QUOTE="rybe1025"]I guess the answer is no to link showing any proof at all of Ubi considering a PS3 version.IronBass

so you are saying that the PC game Everquest developed and published by Sony is a Microsoft exclusive?MightyMuna

Because the past does not matter.rybe1025

Isn't this game timed exclusive? Also, I can't wait for it.

[QUOTE="rybe1025"][QUOTE="Animal-Mother"] Wait so you admit then that every splinter cell has been on PS3? http://www.joystiq.com/2009/06/03/just-how-exclusive-is-splinter-cell-conviction/ and there's your link.Animal-Mother

[QUOTE="rybe1025"]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"rybe1025

Forget Fanboys in a forum, just look at the post and reason if it's logical or not, not the source.

Have you ever heard of the phrase, "Don't Kill the Messenger?"

Even my 5 year old Niece suprises me with tidbits of wisdom and logic now and again, and I'm not going to blow it off just because she's 5.

Same goes for a crazy, rabid, fanboys on a forum. If they have a reasonable point, there is no reason I need to IGNORE it because I don't like the Source of the info, you dig? :)

Don't get me wrong, look at the source, and be sceptical, but don't just announce it as HOGWASH before listening.

[QUOTE="IronBass"][QUOTE="clembo1990"]What use is a "Microsoft exclusive" to anyone? MS doesn't own PC.SamiRDuran

emm that's bull****

games are designed for windows, that's why under requierments they (well most of them) list "windows XY" on the back of the case and won't work on other OS-es like mac without some fiddling around (actualy they won't work on a mac at all without instaling and running windows), they also use directX which is MS property and also listed on the back of the case, a modern game won't run without directX

so yeah, you can't baiscly run any game without using something by microsoft, if you can get over the windows thingy (and even that baiscly requires to mask the os to put the game into thinking it's running on windows), you still NEED directX for the game to run

but if you say games on the pc have nothing to do with windows, feel free to uninstall windows, put on a mac or linux OS and try to run a game without directX, just fyi OpenGL games are very very rare, to the point where they are baiscly dead today

great box art btw

[QUOTE="rybe1025"][QUOTE="Animal-Mother"] well now answer my question. What splinter cell hasn't been on a sony console?

Animal-Mother

[QUOTE="Animal-Mother"][QUOTE="rybe1025"]Because the past does not matter. Things change all the time. At one point FF was known as a nintendo game then known as a Playstation game now as a multiplat game. I just asked for a link with someone talking about that knows a little more then fanboys on a forum and he provided a link showing it.rybe1025

I guess all. No idea not worried about looking since things change. EA always makes multiplat games but look at MKass Effect. Valve is a pure PC developer now look at them. The list could go on.rybe1025

Okay, let's look at Mass Effect 2...that story is not nearly over.

The game isn't due till 2010,, and if it's anything like Splinter Cell, it's going to be a timed exclusive.

For all we know, Mass Effect 2, could be like Bioshock.

We do know that Dragonage, Bioware's game coming before ME2 is coming to PS3. It's EA, it's what they do.

EA has also taken money from M$ in the past for Timed Exclusivity, if the price is right. ROCKBAND 2 was exclusive to the 360 for like 30 days was it. EA will do timed exclusives for the right $$$.

Devs/Pubs don't look at PLACE, they look at the PS3 as it's INSTALL BASE.

Who wouldn't want to sell to over 22-24 Million+ gamers?

The place of the PS3 only matters to fanboys, I would LOVE to sell over 20 MILLION of anything in my life.

well it actually isn't, it'll be on pc as well from day 1 and I also think it'll get ported to the ps3 at some point or another(depends on what kind of deal ms has with ubisoft

It never was. Simultaneous X-Box 360/PC release and I'm guessing a PS3 port down the road. I mean, it's Ubisoft...I really doubt they are going to keep it off a system when it will make them more money. They'd port a game to a digital watch if they could.

I dont know, but if it plays like the E3 demo all the way through, it looks very good

[QUOTE="Floppy_Jim"]Those "Only on Xbox 360- for a while" logos don't mean anything.xsubtownerx

Yeah, true. Either way it looks great, it was one of the highlights of E3 :D

[QUOTE="SamiRDuran"][QUOTE="IronBass"] But it does own Windows. And those games are designed for Windows.Enosh88

emm that's bull****

but if you say games on the pc have nothing to do with windows, feel free to uninstall windows, put on a mac or linux OS and try to run a game without directX, just fyi OpenGL games are very very rare, to the point where they are baiscly dead today

And this makes it microsoft's game how? They profit from that game in what way?

By that poor rationale i can easily say that pretty much every game developed on any platform was using Windows and using Microsoft's Visual Studios to code in it, and since MS has a stake in every game's development, since they NEEDED Windows PCs, that every game on every platform is an MS game.

Is Michael Ironside still doing sam fishers voice? I heard he had a dispute over pay and wasnt doing the voice acting on this game.

Yeah, Conviction is as exclusive as FF14, which means it's also on PC.

Is it just me or does that box art look like crap?

They get money from adverts on GFWL but no one really uses that, other than probably that they don't get a thing from PC gaming.

ooops thought there was some proof or facts in this thread. nothing but endless speculation. im sorry but i see no reason to even care unless theres something besides conjecture and theory to go on. and in this case theres not even industry rumors or ex employee leaks, just some guy on SW wondering if it could happen. the debate is nice but at the moment theres not enough info to really even have an argument. if its coming to PS3 im sure Ubisoft will announce it within the next few months, or right after the 360 version releases.
