Sony is making new IPs more than MS that's for sure. What is MS going to do if one of these new IPs, (like LBP) become a major hit? Will they steal those too? MS has to resort to stealing more than creating.

Blackbond

You realize Gears of War is a new IP and is a huge hit too right? Bigger then any new IP that Sony has created so far this gen right?

Stealing/creating. It really doesn't matter. Look at the end result. It is what it is.

I'll bet you LBP becomes bigger than Gears of War. Then MS will do anything to get it.

Sony is making new IPs while MS is taking all the old IPs away from Sony.

epic_pets

everyone is making new IPs. everyone is making new verisons of old IPs. and yes, MS is taking Sony's best 3rd party IPs.

Their old tired Ips.How bout theyy steal an Ip that hasn't already have over 5 games in the franchise.

Name 3 meaningful 3rd party IPs that's NOT coming to the 360 or that has not been snatched from Sony by Microsoft.

I'll wait.

Well, first off, Tekken 6, FFXIII, among others, were PS3 exclusives until MS bribed (motivated) developers to put it on their console. Also Sony and other third parties are making new IPs exclusively to the PS3. About 11 games are going to be shown, hopefully tonight. If any of these IPs look like major hits, I have no doubt MS will want a piece of that. I'm surprised MS isn't fighting for LBP right now.

Someone's got his tinfoil hat on too tight...

Damn, you still get to play the game at the end of the day. Does losing Tekken 6 as an exclusive really hurt that badly?

Oh noes! I can't hold this over Xbox 360 owners any more! What ever will I do?" :roll:

Um, besides Uncharted and LBP (even tho it isn't out yet and might still flop) what new IP has the PS3 seen that was worth anything again?

So far PS3 has....

  1. Uncharted
  2. Heavenly Sword
  3. RFOM
  4. Afrika
  5. Pixel Junk Monster
  6. Blast Factor

    360 has....

    1. Kameo
    2. Viva Pinata
    3. Too Human
    4. Gears of War
    5. Saints Row
    6. Crackdown
    7. Dead Rising
    8. Lost Oddessey
    9. Infinite Undiscovery
    10. Blue Dragon.

      I don't know where this myth of Microsoft not securing new IP's is coming from. Present day they aren't exactly doing bad.

      No. I have a 360 and a PS3. The deals that MS are making are basically "under the table". Gaming used to be that developers chose what platform they wanted to make it on. Now it's turning into "I'll pay you this much to put this game on my console, and you have to delay it, and here's more money to motivate you." I could care less about Tekken 6 not being exclsive. I didn't like it that much to begin with. MS is turning into the new EA.

      Between the folks using the "MS stole it! *insert angry face here*" and "The PS3 will have the better version anyway for reasons I can't properly articulate in any way other than 'because I said so'" arguments, quite a few.

      Ok haven't commented here yet, completely saw this coming. Been hinted at a lot and looked inevitable after soul calibur. But now both consoles can enjoy!

      Yeah, of course. Backroom and under the table deals. Got it.

      These developers couldn't possibly have come to MS under their own free will and offered to develop the game for their console due to the Xbox 360's larger installed base and higher attach rate. Such blasphemy should never be spoken! I must punish myself for even thinking such impure thoughts!

      And Sony is the tooth fairy, Santa and Jesus..all in one package.

      No honestly..this is beyond pathetic. What kind of solid proof do you have that Microsoft simply opens their wallet as soon as they see a good 3rd party developed IP on the PS3? Perhaps the devs actually are free to choose, and simply choose the 360 due to the facts that games perform very well sales-wise on that platform, there's a much larger userbase, and the console simply is easier (i.e cheaper) to develop on...all in all making development and publishing on the Xbox 360 quite an economically favourable choice.

      But hey, don't let me stop you, let those mighty conspiracy theories flow...you go girl!

      Oh right, I forgot that Warhawk started on the PS1. OK, replace it with the Eye of Judgment.

      No. I have a 360 and a PS3. The deals that MS are making are basically "under the table". Gaming used to be that developers chose what platform they wanted to make it on. Now it's turning into "I'll pay you this much to put this game on my console, and you have to delay it, and here's more money to motivate you." I could care less about Tekken 6 not being exclsive. I didn't like it that much to begin with. MS is turning into the new EA.

      It's all a...

      Really??

      The announcement by Eidos to produce extended chapters exclusively for owners of Microsoft's Xbox 360 video-games console has been met with mixed reaction, especially from those planning to steer Lara Croft through her latest adventure on one of the additional five platforms being catered for. We checked in with Eidos who shed some light on the decision.

      "Microsoft asked us how we could extend the fantastic Tomb Raider: Underworld gameplay experience, exclusively, for their thriving Xbox Live community and these two new downloadable chapters were the result." says Eidos, who also confirm there are no plans for additional downloadable content for PS3.

      Beneath The Ashes, the first extended chapter, will be released late December in time for Christmas. Lara's Shadow, the second installment, will debut in early 2009. The downloadable chapters will only work in conjunction with the retail 360 Tomb Raider Underworld disc.

      On the decision to exclusive partner with Microsoft, Eidos says: "Microsoft asked us how we could extend the fantastic Tomb Raider: Underworld gameplay experience for their thriving Xbox Live community and this exclusive content was the result."

      "Both extended chapters feature individual storylines, based in different environments and with very different mission objectives and gameplay. They are linked to Underworld, they take place following events that occur during Underworld. "

      On the subject of a forthcoming Tomb Raider Underworld demo, Eidos confirms the demo - for both Xbox 360 and PC owners - is "based upon the first section of the second level, Thailand."

      Of course, there is no way in hell they chose to do that on their own, right? You said so yourself that gaming used to be about what platforms developers wanted to work on. Now you're saying that such a thing cannot exist today?

      I'm not saying it doesn't exist, but look at what the article states. MS approached them, not the other way around. Also the extra content is only going to the 360 and PC but not PS3. The evidence is there you just have to read a little to find it.

      Floppy_Jim

      Um, besides Uncharted and LBP (even tho it isn't out yet and might still flop) what new IP has the PS3 seen that was worth anything again?

      So far PS3 has....

      1. Uncharted
      2. Heavenly Sword
      3. RFOM
      4. Afrika
      5. Pixel Junk Monster
      6. Blast Factor

      360 has....

      1. Kameo
      2. Viva Pinata
      3. Too Human
      4. Gears of War
      5. Saints Row
      6. Crackdown
      7. Dead Rising
      8. Lost Oddessey
      9. Infinite Undiscovery
      10. Blue Dragon.

      I don't know where this myth of Microsoft not securing new IP's is coming from. Present day they aren't exactly doing bad.

      There's also Motorstorm, Folklore and Warhawk for the PS3 and Mass Effect for the 360.

      Since when is Warhawk a new ip?

      Oh right, I forgot that Warhawk started on the PS1. OK, replace it with the Eye of Judgment.

      Dead Rising and Saints Row aren't made by M$, why were they even posted...by Blackbond? That's just odd.

      The original statement : "Sony is making New IP's more than MS, that's for sure". Odd that people are just throwing up exclusives and claiming MS made them.

      Who is to say the devs didn't basically declare that they were open to deals? There's a difference between having to 'read a little' for evidence and seeing things that aren't there.

      Oh really? You sounded exceptionally convinced right about here..

      No. I have a 360 and a PS3. The deals that MS are making are basically "under the table". Gaming used to be that developers chose what platform they wanted to make it on. Now it's turning into "I'll pay you this much to put this game on my console, and you have to delay it, and here's more money to motivate you." I could care less about Tekken 6 not being exclsive. I didn't like it that much to begin with. MS is turning into the new EA.

      Someone's got his tinfoil hat on too tight...

      Damn, you still get to play the game at the end of the day. Does losing Tekken 6 as an exclusive really hurt that badly?

      Oh noes! I can't hold this over Xbox 360 owners any more! What ever will I do?" :roll:

      I would be pretty pissed if I bought a more expensive console for exclusive heavy hitters going multiplat to the cheaper console most humans would

      I'm a bit late to the party. So how many cows have we had saying "Tekken wasn't that big a title anyway" ?AdobeArtist
      Not really but I have :P

      I've said (twice with no response!) Tekken 5 only sold 1.67 million copies for the PS2 (VGChartz) so how is it that big of a franchise anymore?

      Of course I did. But nobody can confirm or deny these things. But how can you say such a huge profile game like FFXIII would just all of a sudden become a multiplaform game when Square Enix was saying it was exclusive for the PS3 for over a year? Nobody can deny that it sounds a little odd.

      Read above.

      Seeing as how well the 360 and games on said console have performed, I have a hard time seeing a logical reason as to why a studio would choose not to even consider developing games for it; no matter what has been said in the past.

      I fail to see the odditiy of a business attempting to branch out to further expand its business so I can't say that I wholeheartedly agree. Trust no one:o

      Note also, they've been saying the things "momentarily"...rather than saying "Game X will stay exclusive to platform Y for all eternity", it goes "Game X is exclusive to platform Y"....and somehow people don't see through this! Now that's odd:lol:

      Because it doesn't matter who is making them. MS is securing them. This false allusion that 360 has no new IP's is ridiclous. MS has had their fair share. An exclusive 3rd Party on your system is still an exclusive even if its not in house. You just have to put your effort out there to secure it. MS has done their part to secure a number of new IP's this gen.

      Whether Sony makes more then MS or not. The end result is the end result no matter who makes the game.

      Sony is making new IPs more than MS that's for sure. What is MS going to do if one of these new IPs, (like LBP) become a major hit? Will they steal those too? MS has to resort to stealing more than creating.

      Damn, you still get to play the game at the end of the day. Does losing Tekken 6 as an exclusive really hurt that badly?

      Oh noes! I can't hold this over Xbox 360 owners any more! What ever will I do?" :roll:

      I would be pretty pissed if I bought a more expensive console for exclusive heavy hitters going multiplat to the cheaper console most humans would

      How does that saying go again? Oh right.

      Them's the breaks.

      What really pains me to see is how Sony is lost it all and they didn't even try.

      I mean the game is not like it has a massive budget to develop on like MGS4, Gears, GTA4, FFXIII or some other genres like RPGs or action games for example, it is a freaking fighter after all, they couldn't even secure a fighter, this is a sad day to see Sony going this route of not even caring for what made them the number one preferred console in the past, "only first party exclusives matters" my ass, who did enjoy your first party games in the past? there were handful of games and they are making amazing games this gen, but what made you better is the third party exclusives sony.

      who would have thought of MS securing more third party exclusives than Sony?

      How the mighty have fallen.

      Another PS3 exclusive bites the dust.

      WOW, what is going on with SONY??? Im still getting it for my PS3 (xbox 360 D-pad sucks!!!:P) but im starting to worry about Sony:(

      Will my VF 5 Hori stick work well with Tekken? Or is there a better stick I can buy my 360?

      I didn't expect this. It's seem no 3rd party PS3 exclusive is safe.

      What MS is doing is almost exactly what Sony did with the PS1, except they bought exclusive rights to a lot of the games therefore elbowing out the opposition. Shoe seesms to be on the other foot now.

      Dead Rising and Saints Row aren't made by M$, why were they even posted...by Blackbond? That's just odd.

      The original statement : "Sony is making New IP's more than MS, that's for sure". Odd that people are just throwing up exclusives and claiming MS made them.

      Well, lets take those two out then. MS would still have more.

      Well the game was their exclusive for a decade and they simply ignored the deal.

      I think Namco were the guys who tried to secure it but not Sony, I don't think the offer is the equivalent of say a game like FFXIII, but Sony just said to Namco "go ahead, thats too much for us" when in reality it is not too much.

      that's not hard you can make those "achievements" yourself.

      I fail to see how MS stole Tekken though. I think it was more Namco's decission.

      The game won't be out till Fall 2009 which is just BS and inexcusable. Its taking way to long to release the game I hope this same BS doesn't happen with SF4.
