Armored core 4 PS3 Exclusive?

The Xbox 360 version of Armored core 4 has according to PS3focus.nl been cancelled. The series producer and From Software CEO Naotoshi Zin stated that this decision was due to a recent contract with Sony entertainment to keep the Armored Core series PlayStation 3 exclusive.

[Asuka]

"IF" this is true, its no surprise. All of the past AC games have been Playstation exclusive

[achira]

lol, now the xbox360 starts to looose its exclusive. you can be sure that when the ps3 launches, noone will talk about this crap console !!! at least i hope so.

[TheMART]

Hey stupid: an exclusive can only be lost if it's an exclusive! Dumb ars. This is a cross platform game

[xrobbanx]

If you think xbox360 is crap hope you dont buy a ps3 because in the end they are very similar.

[Marty8370]

great news.

[hardwood2001]

I voted "lame" because there is no official conformation anyway on that site.(yet)

[TheMART]

This is said by a PS3 site. They could easily pull a Sony (that's plain lying, overpromissing and underdelivering, which anyone will know is pulling a Sony!).

Furthermore:

"Xbox 360 system would be to complex to develop for "

This guy is

a.) going nuts
b.) paid by Sony and is pulling a Sony himself

Because it's widely known the 360 has a real great developping environmentkit. If he really can't cope with it, he is just a lame guy with bad programmers working there. Expect a sh!tty game then for PSZero because that one is a real pain in the ars to program for hehehe

Furthermore, these are not as important as GTA4, Assassins Creed or Fifa/PES are if the story would be true in the end.

Achira enjoy this one game, we'll enjoy the others and Assassins Creed the most!

[xrobbanx]

Think its fake news because From Software already done 360 games and more are in the works so why would they state that they cant handle the 360 dev?

[beta1]

that is great news but is not big deal of this avarge game

[Loudninja]

So why would this surprise anyone? The 360 already got Cronme Hounds.

[RuffRyder]

This ass hole is Sonys biggest GIMP so dont take his dumb ass posts seriously.

[Chewy 101]

The guy that wrote the rumor screwed everything up by saying the xbox 360 is harder to code for than the ps3...

[Jay da 2KBalla]

bullsh!t

until proven otherwise.

[TheMART]

Well more important is Assassins Creed for 360.
Simply killing the reason to own a PS3

[shoota33]

Assasins creed is multiplatform what does that have to do with killing ps3 moron.

[TheMART]

It was said to be a PS3 exclusive moron, so now it's not there is no real reason to own a PS3 anymore. That game was the game to shout about to 360 owners. So you got pwned 12 year old fanboy

[shoota33]

oh now it was a ps3 exclusive so back when you wined like a bit*h every day talking about it just only announced for ps3 its coming to 360.Its so nice to see that xbox fangirls change their story up now lol.This game is not a system seller it multiplatform.But to bad their is no good reason to buy you xflop 1.5 which is why everyone is waiting for ps3 now.

[TheMART]

Well it was only announced indeed, but the PS3 users were so sure it would be an exclusive, you included my friend.

So actually it killed the reasons for many to buy a PS3 yeah because Assassins Creed is one of the few new innovative and new concepts out there for POS3.

Oh and for the 360 there are multiple reasons in new franchises. But the best is:

Sony fans will be coming over to 360 side, just because they can play Killzone 2 CGI in realtime this Christmas with Gears of War instead of waiting even more years if it ever comes.

And they're able to play the next gen racing simulation in Forza 2 instead of a smugged up GT4 HD PS2 game and don't have to wait 1,5 year on GT5.

Or they can play football or soccer on 360 NOW, no need to wait another year to get it on POS3.

Or wait, GTA4 from day one on 360 with exclusive downloadable content.

Nope, no need to get a POS3 anymore

[wakkiwakko]

Gametime, one minute you sing one tune, the next you sing another. My post made while back, about you, was absolutely correct, as you've proven it to be correct. Argue all you want, but in the end I will be right and you will still be a blind fanboy. I thank you for supporting my opinion.

[Raz3r1]

lol! so you mean that assasins creed was the only reason to own a ps3???
yeah right

[shoota33]

Exacly,To bad there no reason to own an xbox 1.5 lol.

[TheMART]

Uh yeah, actually I mean that. MGS is dull Japanese gameplay, walk 5 seconds, movie of 40 seconds, walk 30 seconds, movie for 6 minutes.

Resistance? Really nice game. I voted cool on that one because it looks good. Not as great as Gears though, but still good. Only bad thing about it, it's COD3 but then not that good and aliens added. No need to buy for.

Assassins Creed would be also the killer app, but now it's on release day 1 on 360 also.

So yup. See all the new innovative exclusives on 360. More reasons to buy a console where they deliver and not only promise

[shoota33]

what dont you get no one is buying you console of choice you idiot.People are not interested in an xbox 1.5 it does'nt matter how much fanboy comments you make here it will not sell your pathetic console!Everyone is waiting for ps3 face xbox 1.5 is going to be #2 again lol!

[TheMART]

So are you waiting because of buying a brand. You're exactly doing what Sony wants you too. "We don't need any content, people will buy it because it's playstation".

SO you be silly and buy a console that plays video's.

I'll be playing games. That's what a console is about and I'm stating that above. You're only proving more you are a blindless fanboy to jump after Ken off the bridge

[shoota33]

"Sony fans will be coming over to 360 side, just because they can play Killzone 2 CGI in realtime this Christmas with Gears of War instead of waiting even more years if it ever comes."
Everyone is not enterested in GOW just because you are.There is nothing new to GOW just plastic looking graphics lol!

"And they're able to play the next gen racing simulation in Forza 2 instead of a smugged up GT4 HD PS2 game and don't have to wait 1,5 year on GT5."
Until forza can sell i game STFU about this piece of sh*t franshise that cant sell sh*t lol!

"Or they can play football or soccer on 360 NOW, no need to wait another year to get it on POS3."
Have'nt you been reading any of the latest article saying MS has no exclusive deal you moron.Ea and konami just need more time to develope the game for ps3.

"Or wait, GTA4 from day one on 360 with exclusive downloadable content."
Yeah they are going to let you download what ps3 gamers already have on the blu ray disk lol! And ps3 version will have better graphics ,physics and AI anyway lol!
ps3 will sell out xbox 1.5 4:1 just like last time. You are just going to have to face it fanboy.I know how much you dont want MS to get embarresed by sony again but its going to happen and there is nothing you can say or do about it lol! im out

[TheMART]

Yeah the PSZero will have to sell double the numbers of working ones, just as the PS2 that had a sh!tty drive and 1 out of 2 consoles died after no time.

Expect a bad quality drive in the coming PSZero also!

O wait, I am only interested in Gears? That's why it got all that E3 2006 awards and almost no Sony game was even listed?

Forza 1 sold 2 million copies to a fanbase of 25 million consoles sold. That's about 1 out of 10 users having it. Now 100 million PS2's sold and how many GT4 games sold (now don't show up with numbers of all GT games combined)?

Oh yeah, 360 games sells like candy. Do you know any game for example like GRAW or COD2, that sold to more then 20% of all 360 owners?

With 5 million units sold at the end of june, that's 1 million copies sold at least. There is no PS game that ever done that. So the XBOX format is the format that sells man. PS owners are kids who have no money for games, that's why the attach rate of the PS2 was 1.9 per unit, for the 360 it's 4.5 per unit. Forza 2 will sell, just wait. And not even sell the game alone, it'll sell systems when GT4 smugged up PS2 version is running on the other demopod beside it!

Yeah ofcourse Sony needs time to develop Fifa/PES. Right. That's why you can have other games this Christmas? THey had the time to produce? Please man. They have developpers kits, other parties also made stuf on PC's emulating a POS3. So it could be done. Just 12 months no soccer on the POS3 accept it.

The BR is made for systems that need lame programming. Like Resistance uses over 20 GB, go see that Oblivion only needed a SL DVD and that's a big world there.

POS3 first needs to get over the 10 million headstart that 360 will have this November. Analists have said Sony will only outsell 360 when it got 2011. At that time the new xbox will be born and the PSZero will fade away forever

you just got pwned

[headblackman]

i dont trust this info. something about it seems fishy, about like that assasins creed exclusive thing for the ps3. when all along it was for both systems. sony would do anything to get people back on their team. fony sony, it's not gonna happen :) this is just a rumor so let's just treat it like such

[Boink]

even if it's true, not a big deal for the rest of the world. but in japan this news would not help microsoft, as that's where it would be most popular.

but the 360 "too complex"

riiiiiiiiiiight....

[Gamer13]

Nice war between Sonyfanboys and MS fanboys, its good to see how they bash each other at games and hardware.

[cue kalamos]

its also funny becuse at the sony press covo they said AC was ps3 only

[Bhai]

Not that I was desperately waiting for this game, but no doubt it does show MS 360 falling even behind in Japan...and with all those 360 games whose PS3 versions are so much more (Fight Night 3, Full Auto 2, Blazing Angels) plus the awesome PS3 launch lineup that already look like 360's 3rd generation software and inside its also so much better(with motion sensing, procedural content, game length, hi-quality due to blu-ray...none of which is on 360 anyway) and also the insanely impressive backward compatibility (Ah...Okami, Yakuza, Final Fantasy XII, Rogue Galaxy and god of war 2) and the knowledge that FF-XIII and "DANTE" is going to be there, its is just making me tingle under the skin, YEEEAH PEOPLE KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK !!!

[f1r3waII K1LL3r]

Is armored Core even supposed to be wicked I mean I wasnt ever going to buy it so is this a big deal at all. Comparing this to assassins creed I mean that game was going to be awesome is ridiculous. Furthermore armored core isnt one of the great games coming out for 360 i thought it was bioshock, gears of war Halo 3, Too human, Mass effect double agent and stuff like that.

[super bill]

i see the ps3 is getting the crap games for them then like this pile of crap.

[Loudninja]

Yeah we get the pile of crap, and what you get? N3?Cromehounds? Bomberman?WO I wish I had a 360!

[TheMART]

Uhm, GRAW, Prey, Gears of War, Viva Piniata, Forza 2, Lost World, Too Human, Huxley

Do I have to go on? The 360 line up beats the PSZero one any day and for sure this Christmas

[Sevir04]

it never was, and chrome hounds is by the same producer and that wasn't that hot of a game. i know because i rented it and beat it. took it online and it wasn't that hot. the past armoured core games in it's series has improved vigorously become more frantic and fast in battles as tech progressed with the ps2 and from the looks of the trailer it's going to be the fastest and most immersive AC game mainly for the Cells power at huge number crunching. and of course tilt controller. i for one look forward to this game and i can give a rats @$$ about what the mart or any body else has to say

[specialguest]

Lol, look at the MS fanboys going crazy about this news. calm down fanboys, this is unconfirmed info about exclusivity.

[Asuka]

if you go to the official AC4 site (www.armoredcore.net) there is no listing for AC4 on the 360. Maybe it was cancelled????

[Unknown]

I love to come to this site and laugh when I'm having a hard day at work. On one side you got people bickering about a system(xbox360) being better than another system(ps3) that's not even out. On the opposite side you have people bickering about a site they have even played. Oh why don't you guys just skip this generation and start talking about how Sony and MS will win with the PS4 and XboxNext. First and foremost this isn't yet fact. Secondly, if you never intended to play this game why get so ruffled? The PS3 is going to get games that the xbox360 won't get and vice versa. But I will say I wish that the PS3 start coming out with new IPs like the 360. D@mn... I never would've thought I would see another game title with a 5 or 6 next to it besides Final fantasy lol. But anyway guys keep up the good work of lashing out at each other about consoles they never played(PS3 would-be owners) and being scared that another console is going to be better than what they already own(360 owners). Once again thanks for the laughs.

[Asuka]

lmao, the funny thing is, your completely 100% correct!

[TheXgamerLive]

You took 1 rumor and ran a marathon with it. Not happening:))

sony and the bottleneck 3 still sucks.

End of story.

[Asuka]

you just proved that #25 statement was completely true

[HiSpeedSoldier61]

I still have hope that these Bill Gates A$$ riders will one day escape the dungeon that is their mother's basement and try to regain the ability to use more than Half of their golf ball brains.

[Hayabusa 117]

This hardly seems like an official announcement. I smell more bullshit.
The PS3 fanboys should take a break. If you guys want to buy a console because it's made buy "Sony" then that's fine. But some of us actually like to play "video games", and hence buy "video game consoles" aka XBox 360 and Wii.
