At least things are getting interesting again. Dragon's Dogma 2 exclusively on XBO would be amazing.

There'd be literally nothing amazing about that

 

[Arion]

You fucked up, Harada!

what did Harada do?

 

[Castef]

Time-limited exclusive, I guess. SFV is definitely going to come out on Xbox One.

It depends on how much Sony paid for this.

 

[Apenheul]

Did see SF5 coming but not it being PS4/PC exclusive. That said, I was hoping that they'd push the art style of SF4 with more detail and higher polygon count but the new look is okay too.

 

[2San]

Why are people saying this is exclusive? Is the PC some mythical platform that only exists in legends?! Discuss the console exclusivity all you want but it's getting ridiculous that people don't view PC as a platform.

While there are a lot of people that play games on PC and Consoles, there are a lot of people that just play on consoles. I'm primarily a PC gamer, but that doesn't mean that stuff like this doesn't annoy me.

 

[John Bender]

i think it's more to do with the fact that you're a rampant shill who makes up sony fan fiction in lieu of actual insider knowledge.

 

[Finalow]

the tears in this thread are literally flooding gaf.

/damn

thuway post if you are ok

 

[freeofgreed]

But at what cost?

Most PS4 gamers did not ask for this. Spending money on third party exclusives while continuing to neglect their greatest first party major IPs is not going to silence critics, quite the contrary.

What first party IP's are they neglecting?

 

[YuriLowell]

I wouldn't put it past Capcom to lose money due to non-SF franchise mismanagement.

So Lost Planet 3 and Remember Me lost enough money that capcom didn't want to make SF5?

 

[Son of Sam]

Where console wars are concerned, PC versions don't count.

Totally agree with this but it was definitely a main point of rebuttal during the 360 era. It was always "well.. it's on pc to"

 

[RE_Player]

Because it is still console exclusive to the PS4. And that's a big deal.

It's a huge deal but people are making it sound like PS4 is the only option...

 

[driver116]

Nice pickup for Sony after the TR debacle.

 

[ZeroX03]

You're right. From a competitive perspective though, PC was never going to be in the equation so PS4 does become the 'exclusive' choice to speak. Just chiming in from that angle. Agree with you that PC is a platform.

 

[Elixist]

pretty lame ass deal, just like the TR one. shouldve paid for dmc or dogma instead, at least its for pc as well.

 

[Buzzman]

So personnaly i think that Street Fighter 5 can be exclusive on one platform, i would like to know what will be your reactions if it happens ?

Puzzlement at how I somehow entered the universe where things that are never going to happen somehow happened and desire to get back to the real world.

Alberto, it's time to wake up please.

 

[HabeeNo]

GIGATON!!!

SO HYPE FOR THIS HOLY SHIT

 

[Catrollinginthewind]

That does seem to be about how this works. People are fine with it if it doesn't affect them.

I thought video games were part of the entertainment industry :^).

 

[MakeMeFeelAlive]

Its about time something leaked. I was wondering when thungs would start popping up. This is a big deal for the ps4. Im personally stoked since i love SF. Although, im pretty sure super street fighter 5 will be on all platforms. I dont care though, SFV will be day one for me. Take my money capcom.

 

[NateDrake]

I'm surprised it is exclusive considering the cost of games and whatnot. Sony must have a financial hand in it, otherwise the risk seems too great to release the title for only PS4 and PC. Still, it's a great announcement for Sony and a solid exclusive for the PS4 to get.

 

[Mikey Jr.]

Sf4 exclusive...

Well that certainly is a gigaton.

 

[Randam]

I realy liked the style of street fighter 4, but would have liked something new for 5.
hm..

 

[Juke Joint Jezebel]

There'd be literally nothing amazing about that

Would be amazing to me. Heck, I just want them to ANNOUNCE a new Dragon's Dogma, regardless of platform!

 

[gelf]

I got a PS4 and a PC, but this 3rd party exclusivity bullshit needs to end. You should be better than this, Sony.

No platform holder has ever been "better then this". They've all done it, Sony have done these kinds of deals since the PS1. Its been more obviously an MS thing to do lately I imagine because their in a better financial position then Sony to arrange these types of exclusivity deals.

Not defending it, just saying its been like this forever.

 

[BrokenEchelon]

Nonono.

It's great if console people don't view PC as a platform in their exclusivity shenanigans. That allows for stuff like this to happen. Don't fight it!

Exactly. Let them think PC isn't part of their idiot war, as long as they keep releasing the best version on the best platform, they can throw their shit around all day for all I care.

hype hype hype!!!!

 

[Stone Ocean]

Why are people expecting DD2 or DMC5 from Ono? That's Itsuno's team.

Ono is basically Capcom's spokesperson now.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Can you quote some of these supposed meltdowns?

There are no meltdowns. He just likes to start drama over nothing.

 

[Atilac]

No he didn't. All he implied was that it would be difficult to make. Street fighter is far too much big franchise for Capcom that they couldn't make it in some form (your naïve if you believe otherwise).

At most they saved us from f2p street fighter or a much later release,

He explicitly said he didn't have the staff or the funding. You are grasping at straws.

 

[vg260]

Well, this certainly was surprising.

Not sure how I feel about a console exclusive.

 

[RPGam3r]

Exclusives are good, it's so boring to see everygame come out in every console. As a multi console owner i like this.

Megaton if the exclusivity includes the west.

I'll agree with this (I just got unlucky with my fighter friends picking X1, and I still want news on the SP as I may still get it for PS4).

I hope people maintain this attitude with the next X1 exclusive, we all know its coming.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

ONO DOESNT WORK ON DMC OR DOGMA KOBYASHI DOES. PLEASE PEOPLE. I'm guessing this was for TGA

 

[Respawn]

Bet on the right horse.

Seems like they did. Lord knows how many consoles they've sold so far.

 

[Con_Smith]

Remember that one game that was "just Call of Duty with mechs"? You know, the one that was also a dick move since MS moneyhatted it, even though it came to PC as well.

I don't recall threads about this particular game going too well at the time.

Yeah well now PC gamers have a game whose community won't shit the bed in a week.

 

[gribbles]

People who are saying Sony moneyhatted this, do you really think Sony would have allowed a PC version if they moneyhatted it?

 

[phalestine]

mirrors?

[Stevey]

Exclusive to two platforms?
What the hell are you guys talking about?
That's not what exclusive generally means.

 

[Rocketz]

Titanfall is moneyhat for me. Original deal was for time exclusive, later Microsoft put more money to block Playstation version.

Microsoft also stepped in and funded the rest of the project when EA told them they were getting cut off and Respawn were in the verge of canceling it. So of course they wanted exclusivity.

 

[New002]

I know I have a post somewhere in my post history saying this game would never be a console exclusive because it makes absolutely zero sense. I still think it makes zero sense, but apparently I was wrong.

This is massive if this truly never comes out on Xbox.

 

[Needlecrash]

I guess I'm going to have to do sell my EVO stick and go with a Hori PS3/PS4 stick now.

 

[TsuWave]

I got a PS4 and a PC, but this 3rd party exclusivity bullshit needs to end. You should be better than this, Sony.

aside the fact that holding these companies to your personal views of values/morals is a dangerous venture in the first place, we don't even know how the exclusivity came about since not long ago ono said they didn't have money for the game. maybe sony helped funding it?

 

[Heavy's Sandvich]

So glad that I got rid of my Xbox One.

 

[SgtCobra]

It's a huge deal but people are making it sound like PS4 is the only option...

For a lot of people it is.

 

[Askherserenity]

It's a huge deal but people are making it sound like PS4 is the only option...

Eh. Some people don't game on PC at all though. Which yeah, sucks for them.

 

[Durante]

People who are saying Sony moneyhatted this, do you really think Sony would have allowed a PC version if they moneyhatted it?

If it makes the moneyhat significantly cheaper, sure.

 

[chadskin]

Over 1000 posts in less than an hour. Megaton confirmed.

 

[FullMetaltech]

Geez. Kinda expected it with all the Ono shots. Looks really good from the teaser so far. Probably exclusive in Japan but timed over here. Even so a good edition for the Sony brand.

 

[jediyoshi]

Exclusive to two platforms?
What the hell are you guys talking about?
That's not what exclusive generally means.

If there's an exclusion involved, then the term exclusive can apply. It's not that confusing. They also literally just use the terminology themselves.

 

[Ghost Slayer]

I hope Microsoft enjoys their Tomb Raider.

but we already know it will come to PS4 and PC

 

[Stone Ocean]

It's a huge deal but people are making it sound like PS4 is the only option...

If you don't own a gaming PC, it is.

 

[Wereroku]

Nonono.

It's great if console people don't view PC as a platform in their exclusivity shenanigans. That allows for stuff like this to happen. Don't fight it!

I thought that some of the anger around tomb raider was that Microsoft had paid to keep it off of PC as well. I really see the consoles and PC as being complementary devices. They really work together well because there are games that will not be released on PC and there will be games that aren't released on consoles.

People who are saying Sony moneyhatted this, do you really think Sony would have allowed a PC version if they moneyhatted it?

Sony allows indies with exclusive agreements to release on PC all the time. They view the PC as an expansion device. I mean hell PSNow will be on PC at some point in the future. The only thing they keep exclusive are SCE studio stuff.

 

[Lyte Edge]

People who are saying Sony moneyhatted this, do you really think Sony would have allowed a PC version if they moneyhatted it?

Didn't Sony moneyhat Injustice Ultimate Edition for 'next-gen' platforms? It still got a PC release.
