Sony on Xbox 360 exclusive DLC: "nothing is ever exclusive" |
Listed in: PS3, Xbox 360 Tags: 2K Games, Microsoft, Ray Maguire, Sony, UK
Ó
Microsoft's been really busy rounding up exclusive DLC. First there was Grand Theft Auto IV, then Fallout 3, then Tomb Raider: Underworld. Kinda makes you wonder if Sony's not doing enough to give their gamers some lovin.Sony UK managing director Ray Maguire has something to say about that though:
One thing to remember, nothing is ever exclusive. Things get wrapped up for a period of time for a large amount of money and if it's a strategic decision by competition to do that then we have to live with that.
How cryptic. What do you guys think? Is Maguire hinting at something here? Will we see the DLC Microsoft bagged hit the PS3 in the future? I'd be happy with just the GTA4 DLC.
After all, that's what happened with BioShock. Because of their exclusivity deal with Microsoft, even talks of a PS3 version was taboo for 2K Games. But once the exclusivity period was over, badda bing, badda boom. No reason to see why this isn't true for DLC as well.
Maguire isn't through talking though. Of course, he couldn't let slide an opportunity to poke at Microsoft's exclusive DLC strategy:
Obviously, what we have to do is make sure [...] we have the amount of money to invest in games rather than investing in stopping other people making games and progressing.
So I would much rather that we were investing money into making sure that we've got great R&D and we start producing games like LittleBigPlanet, rather than paying other people a huge amount of money to stop people playing their product.
Ouch.

And true.

Anyways, I don't understand why a company pays so much money for DLC, does it keep people from buying a PS3 and does it make people buy a xbox 360 so they can get DLC for GTA in the future? I don't think so...

@brav04 I'm pretty sure its published by Microsoft or Microsoft owns Lionhead or whoever made the game so that one is really pretty much guranteed exclusive like Gears of War 2 is for Xbox 360 or God of War for Playstation

lets bash m$ for having exclusive anything, and bash m$ for not having something that is exclusive to the ps3...
sony is talking like they are innocent of ever paying anyone for an exclusive... i wouldn't of bought a psx @ launch if sony hadn't showered midway with money for MK3.
now that m$ is following sony's lead they/you (do you think for yourselves?) talk ***** like it's a stupid move...
why do all you zealots have your panties in a bunch if it makes little to no difference...

However, Microsoft does not own Epic, so Gear could come to PS3. Cliffy just wants it to stay on the 360.
It's similar to MGS4. Nothing other than Kojima himself says mGS4 can't come to 360...well other than the fact that it would need 4 discs lol.
MGS belongs on Playstations anyway. it doesn't feel right on an Xbox controller.
I feel the same way for GTA titles btw.

MK3 was on SNES.
if you're referring to MK4, that went to N64 also.
All the other MK games went to various other consoles too.
Where's your brain?
