Funny stuff, I can't believe the Cows started hyping this as a exclusive (yes, even though it was timed a lot of cows still hyped it exclusive)

And lemmings said it was 6 month exclusive because the dev was afraid of Halo3. Lets not forget that.

but on the haze website it still shows only the PlayStation 3 logo, I guess this is Assassin's Creed all over again, lol.

7 day exclusivity, does that make sense, they should release it on the same date.

To be fair, Sony only paid Ubisoft $50 for exclusivity.

I don't often get excited about multiplatform/timed exclusive games and Haze isn't much of an exception. I'll probably still go out and buy it if I have the money at the time just to put my PS3 to use.

I'm surprised this thread isn't getting more attention. Maybe because the title doesn't give away the big surprise?

Ubisoft is king when it comes to lying about exclusivity. They've done it for practically every single game they've ever made.

I think the big suprise would have been if Ubisoft had made it exclusive. That is not there gig man, they make games for everyone and try to make as much mony as they can.

Heh, whatever the game still looks good. And since PS3 is the lead platform, it's sure to be a good game,

What's the point of a 7 day timed exclusive?

Sony must have given Ubi a 50 dollar check and a Double Whopper for this unbelievable deal.

My theory is this:
Developers have been having trouble porting games from 360/PC to PS3 right? So if you release the bad port first, then people wont know that there is a better version (360?, PC?), and they will buy it right away, without realising this.

So perhaps its exclusive for a week so it gets more hype then it would if released besides the 360 and PC versions?

Cuz you knew all along that it wasn't going to be exclusive right? C'mon man. No one saw this coming. I'm surprised they're putting the game out against Halo and think all you lems are too. It's not like this was only cows thinking this was timed. Ubisoft had everyone thinking this.

Like Assassins Creed? Its Ubisoft's way of drumming up some hype and keeping it in the news. This is hardly a first.

They need to capitalize on the PS3 user base needing a game that's "better" on the PS3 than the 360. Since this game is actually going to be better on 360, they delay the 360 version 1 week. Get all the PS3 fanboys to buy it...and then release the better version for the 360. And there goes the cows excuse of ubi-port. Especially when the lead platform PS3 is worse than the ported platform.
