That's how exclusives work. It's incentive to buy a system. I get that there may be people who can't afford both, but to those who are just loyal to one system for the sake of brand loyalty, you're doing yourselves a disservice by only dedicating yourself to one console. The frustration isn't that it's exclusive to Playstation, the frustration is you don't have the console to play it.
Exactly! If you want to play a certain game, buy what you need to play it! It's that simple. And if you don't have the money, well you have over a year to save.
Yup. Gamers play games, not consoles. Even if I don't like Sony's anti-consumer practices since Jim Ryan took over, I'm not missing out on Lost Legacy 2 or an Infamous Remake.
I thought it was already confirmed to be an exclusive. At the very least it was heavily eluded to. I’m mainly a PS player but if ES6 is exclusive, and I’m assuming it is, I’ll get an Xbox to play it. I don’t see why people bitch and complain about exclusives. Every console has always had them.
Pretty much what I said regarding Starfield, these kinds of articles are always one sided. Like jwillj2k4 said it will be presented as a positive when xbox does it but that's never the case when its Playstation.
Eh in my opinion we should get harsher articles if/when it is. There's a big difference between Sony having been asked by marvel to make games using characters of their choice and creating new series of games from scratch and them being exclusive. To buying a major publisher, deliberately lying and suggesting twitter do that and attacking exclusives as
The title is very telling. "Exciting for PS fans, frustrating for everyone else." It has been 5 generation of pure class and quality so if you're not a fan of playstation by now, you aren't a real gamer. Especially someone who's meant to be a journalist.
Lol, console purchases have consequences...just like elections do Ted! Now throw your support behind the $3.5 trillion infrastructure bill so those dads and moms can get better jobs to afford more than one console.
Gaming is a luxury and there are plenty of cheap options like the PS4. "Exclusivity is dumb" Weird, You were so happy for the Bethesda acquisition. And don't worry the industry is moving towards open hardware. I really feel bad for people don't get to play any Sony studios game since they're the best.
Exclusivity is not dumb its what sells consoles and gives value to those consoles, its just one does exclusivity and consoles better than the other so naturally cries of "they should just all publish" are being shouted from the roof tops.
"I like to see stuff like this happen to, one, humble people, and two, actually create honest competition between the only two console manufacturers actually going head to head with each other."
You were gleeful when MS bought Bethesda. You can't have it both ways, Ted.
You cheered on something 10 times worse for people who can't afford multiple platforms. Those games were going to be multiplatform. Wolverine never was.
That is the laziest way of looking at gaming. Alternatively how are car companies are going to build competitively if they share the same freaking engine brand. Competition is what drives innovation. PlayStation with their narrative games and improve controller. Xbox with their Game Pass offering and Nintendo with their cater to children and the mobility of their platform.
While I have all of the consoles and planning on getting wolverine, I know some people who really can only afford one console so I can understand the frustration especially for super hero’s who have mass appeal so it’s great it’s being made but wish more could experience it because I’m sure it will be great.
All anyone had to do was look at what Sony did with PS4 to know which one they should buy if they could only buy one, if they still chose xbox over PS at that point well that's on them.
And that’s exactly what Sony is banking on. What will sell systems more than an exclusive Marvel game? Nothing. SM2 and Wolverine are Sony’s two biggest PS5 games that are in development right now. People will definitely get a PS5 for those two games and neither will be released until PS5’s are easier to get.
Oh well. Anyone who really wants to play it can get a PS.
