MS needs its identity because many outside of the xbox camp just see their tactics as the 'me too' type. I hope it stays exclusives even though i prefer sony's platform. To be honest MS are lacking on true exclusives especially of the high calibre (dont shoot me as i still consider console exclusives as true exclusives because i personally dont have a pc capable of playing any of the games to the quality of the xbox but this may not be the case for others though). The lack of studios has really taken its toll for the 360 in 09 and only the most ardent of fanboys cant see that.

microsoft did nothing to sony. Sony wasnt publishing mgs or final fantasy in the first place, publishers thought it was viable to have those two series on the xbox 360 and didn't see much profit to be made on the wii for those particular games. Gears on ps3 is equivalent to Resistance on xbox 360, cant see either happening.

well according to sony fanboy logic

1. Final Fantasy stolen from Nintendo
2. Metal Gear stolen from Nintendo
3. Trophies/Achievements stolen from Microsoft
4. Dragon Quest stolen from Nintendo (but Nintendo got it back)
5. Rumble/Analog sticks stolen from Nintendo
6. Online play stolen from Sega (we are still talking fanboy logic)
7. Soul Calibur stolen from Sega
8. Resident Evil 4 stolen from Nintendo
9. Viewtiful Joe stolen from Nintendo
10.live arcade/ psn stolen from Microsoft

not hard, especially with fanboy goggles. Heck im a sony fan too, but stop making stupid excuses for them losing exclusives.

That Sony already took Bioshock, Ninja Gaiden, Tales of Vesperia, etc.

There's nothing wrong with FFXIII being on the 360. But seeing as how Square hasn't even released the PS3 version of The Last Remnant... -_-"

Anyways, the point is that 3rd parties want to make more money... unless they're Square Enix. S-E is only interested in one thing.

S-E Vice President: "We don't want the PlayStation 3 to be the overwhelming loser, so we want to support them. But we don't want them to be the overwhelming winner either, so we can't support them too much."

True Sega Dreamcast and Gamecube would of been pretty successful if $ony Corporate & Sony dollars hadn't stepped in!!!
At the time when it was Nintendo versus Sega,
Sony Muscled their way into the gaming industry via N64 dabacle,and everyone new Sony would win because of their large corporate presence, SOny was a Electronics giant at the time.Their entrance sent shockwaves into the community of game companies Sega and Nintendo.

Then Microsoft Fallowed suit And this was a huge Bombshell.MS is massive and has deep deep pockets!!!Thus Xbox1 was far superior in hardware than anything at the time!!!

These two Behemoth tech Corporation declared war on the little guys Sega and Nintendo and at the time. SOny and MS were giants.Still are well SOny is a little wobbly.But what Im saying is its funny how these Massive Publicly traded companies play this reeper game and step in with their money and knock out little companies.

But you say Nintendo is winning?? what they are winning is the toy market ,the, board game market.Wii is not a gaming system it is a board game system ,like a toy thats all it is..It in its own Genre.

My point also is Both companies are not Game specialist They basically bought their way into the gaming industry with Public money!!!
Sony Imagesoft anyone???(yuck) they went from that to Santa-monica studios!!!!!!
Cause Nentendo was trying to keep them out of gaming remember the N64 and SOny were supposed to be the same with CD rom????

Man Sony muscled its way in and MS did also.Money Money Money!!!!

I would wish that Sega And Nintendo and Apple joined together and built a Machine that ran off of Raid SSD and 50 Core CPU and 4 GB of Ram just to take back what was theirs but .It appears The money is always with MS and if Sony hits its stride it willbe them as well!!!
R.I.P Sega and Nintendo!!!

to above I agree with everything except the R.I.P. nintendo part. I dont think any company has to make any excuses for themselves, games are a business. If you dont like it dont buy them. I think nintendo has decided to keep the family friendly thing because parents will all ways think of that company first when deciding for their kids.

on topic:

Its hard to say but I would buy gears on ps3 if both versions were equal just because of the free online. With that said I dont think the ps3 needs it. It has a ton of really well made exclusives. The 360 has 3 good exclusive series these days. Halo, Gears, and fable. Ok forza too but im not a racer.

Umm...is that the only response you people have when this topic is brought up? "Oh, Sony did it then and it was immoral then, so we'll do it now and it'll be okay for us now". That's not only false because they didn't exactly do anything like that to anyone then, but also hypocritical because you're condemning the assumed actions of one company then, but condoning the exact same actions from another company now. Please tell me the logic in that.

By the way, about this article...Metal Gear wasn't exactly TAKEN because we kind of knew and accepting that Konami was going to put A MG game onto the 360. The whole thing about "stealing something" would've been if it was Metal Gear Solid 4, which the game WASN'T. Not sure why people keep confusing what the whole issue was. 360 owners GOT a MG game, but it wasn't the game they were all hyping up the rumors about.

When someone 'steals ' something... it's without any payments and something is removed from somewhere.

Which stolen video game doesn't the PS3 have - that the Xbox 360 now has exclusively?

Also - FF XIII is also going to be on the PC... so according to a certain fanbase's definition of an exclusive - FF XIII was never one.

Ace Combat
The Last Remnant
Star Ocean 4

Gained access to is more like it for
FFXIII
MG:R
Tekken 6

I don't expect any 3rd party studio to have loyalty since it is and should be about the money for such companies. I also think sony should have made the good ones, that 360 supporters consider victories for getting, into 1st party if it was within their financial means.

I'm sure there's a deal in place that keeps the Gears of War franchise exclusive so don't get your hopes up. I don't think Sony needs it so it be a waste of their money to buy that over giving us the great quality games they've been releasing.

So keeping a game exclusive is fine, but having it on multiple platforms is dirty tactics to steal exclusives and not a smart business decision that any moron would do.

Furthermore, why is it so freaken important that a game is exclusive other than to feed your immature elitist ego?

MS paid for 2 game exclusivity this is a FACT as they didn't know how popular it would be. So the first 2 games would probably never his the PS3 unless that was a timed exclusive deal. We all know though the UT team prefer working with PS3 over the 360 as they had a lot more support from Sony. As we all remember them trying to release the free map pack and MS not letting them. GOW on PS3 means free maps for the game. What more could you want?

MS will not allow Gears 3 to go on the PS3, even if their contract ended, and even if the game did make it to the PS3 there will be very less buyers. Reason being PS3 gamers haven't played Gears 1&2. I'm not saying about consumers who have multiple consoles and can play gears on 360. Gears is a triple A title for MS which they aren't willing to slip from their hands. Same as Sony losing any third party triple A title. (Sorry couldn't think of any PS3 exclusive third party title released exclusively)

Epic seems comfortable enough developing for the PS3, they were some of the first with petty even ports so I think M$ WILL (and have) need pay for the series to stay exclusive. The only thing that COULD stop them is M$ offering the cash as they COMPLETELY own the Gears name. Parts 1 and might not have a chance to go PS3-side but until M$ signs a new exclusivity deal the third Gears is completely possible.

teraclusterx - 134 days 17 hours ago

Sony got in because of CD-Rom technology then they pushed DVD's and now BLuray!! They saw MONEY to be made with their tech,
And they WON!!! PS2 is number 1 selling of all time.

But MS got in because of Fear OF Sony being another hardware contender beside Apple in the realm of Home Computers.

IF Sony had dominated for 3 Generations,Whos to say they couldn't drop an OS into their console and market it against Apple or MS as a Computer???PS3 is close but limited ram is the weakness.
But WHO???

MS had to shut them down!!

Apple Recently did the same Dirty Tactic against the Super phone known as the PALM PRE as they match the specs for specs on their latest IPHONE 3GS and even trumped it in many areas, they crushed the PRE.

These companies are Viscious don't make any mistakes about that.
And we end up paying hundreds and are at their mercy.
I want Shenmue I want Gears, I want Alot of things on my PS3 but not until we have a good company and solid Platform.
I believe SEGA and Apple and Nintendo should join forces to take these Guys out of it NOW!!!

I still don't believe MS 'stole' Metal Gear. Metal Gear Rising is a completely new game and it's a completely different genre. Hideo even basically said it's not a proper metal gear game and he won't be as heavily involved like the others. Until Metal gear 5 or a Metal Gear Solid game comes to the 360, I won't consider it stolen.

Having said that I'm sure Rising is going to be an awesome game

Thats a quote from the site. But yea, I don't get why people hate games going multi-plat.

I can say from my perspective of an 360-only owner, It seems to me that the people 'who own both' get more bent out of shape than the 1 system owners.
