I was thinking for the next gen systems but even that doesn't make much sense.
So, first betrayalton of 2013?
I'm glad that its gonna be multiplatform game from day1. More people will have chance to enjoy it. As for MS, they will surely pay some obscene amount of money for exclusive content and focus their marketing on that.
How is this a betraylton?
I thought it was always PS360?Because the contract said it would be on ps3 possibly a year later so a lot of people took it as a 360/720 deal.How is this a betraylton?
Anyway Rayman is the first real betraylton
Is it?
Durango as 'next-gen' exclusive does make some sense to me. Locking down a huge franchise like this for a year on one system would be very expensive, MS would need to compensate Acti for at least three or four million copies, which is basically a hundred million dollars. But to compensate for the very small amount of people who would only buy PS4 versions? That's got to be very reasonable, and it'd connect the franchise with their platform for the whole generation.

Timed exclusive for Microsoft. Doesn't seem that way from this leak.
Lol we shouldn't be surprised by Rayman at all! Considering its Ubisoft lmfao
Microsoft are going to need to show at least something to keep 360 gamers happy this E3, and I don't think it's a long shot to suggest Destiny will take up the majority of that.
Maybe things have changed though with the exclusivity deal! Activision are pretty loved up with MS after how successful it's been for them with Call of Duty so the odds of some kind of exclusivity is pretty high.

trying to catch up so no PC version =(?

The original contract mandated an X360 version this year and left open the possibility of a PS3 version no later than next year. Some people took "no later" as "no earlier".

Yeah this is basically what I am talking about. Thanks for decoding my brain Stu

ah okay, in that case you might be right.
I've got a feeling Microsoft let the PS3 version release the same time as the other versions because the next gen version was exclusive/timed exclusive to Durango.

Glad to see there is no timed exclusivity! Now I'm really curious about the gameplay.
My biggest concern is that Activision is going to charge the crap out of all the expansions severely segregating the community which isn't good for the game [I believe] this is trying to be.

What about a new console? Lots of new games?

$59.999999999999
(That price looks so funny to me now)
Update:
QUADRUPLE WIELDING! SOLD!
I really hope Microsoft gives a shit and shows me more reasons to buy a Nextbox over a PS4, but I doubt it.

I think I just lost half my enthusiasm for this game.

I mean, what's the point?
They will show exclusive demo of Destiny, and then announce plan of transforming X360 into full-time media entertainment machine. End of mass x360 game development, and focus on exclusive streaming deals.

Hey, he could have been hyped for 720/PS4/PC only.
Hmm...that's actually pretty smart. Basically Jerry Rigging the 360 into a full entertainment device
which is basically what it has turned into
Yea Ubi has been fucking up lately
You read the first image in the thread and still think that?
How? Because its got space in it?
..Serious question?
Very likely. I imagine they'll need at least try give something gaming-wise to try and promote 360 sales until the 720 hits though. Obviously we all know 360 game development will be coming to a close but they'll no doubt try (emphasis on try) show the opposite of that.
Wouldn't surprise me to see a DLC exclusivity deal like was previously rumoured though.
I still have a feeling it'll be a timed next gen exclusive for Durango.So, first betrayalton of 2013?

It could come to 720, 360 and PS3 this year and not contradict the contract that was circulated - a PS4 version would be out of the question though, at least for Destiny 1
The contract merely stipulated that bungie were not obliged to release the PS3 version this year - it seems like the clause was a contingency plan rather than a statement of intent, a circumspect one considering they haven't developed for the PS3 before.
Not sure why everyone is assuming that the contract has changed.
Yea, it seems it's just a normal multi-plat game to me at this point. Hopefully their is a beefed up next gen version though, otherwise I'll just outright skip this one.
Eh. There's really not enough to judge it by yet, but what there is seems to suffer from the same problem as Fuse: it looks like everything that's already out there and nothing new. But art direction has always been one of Bungie's weak points.

If only they kept the pixar style it had soul and looked unique.
Really? No interest in The Last of Us, Beyond Two Souls, Killer is Dead, or Puppeteer?
The fact that Sony is pushing out three new IPs this year is commendable. At least I think so...

Hi, first post.
It's disappointing that a company that a company who had their big breakthrough from a launch title is releasing this game on current gen consoles. Only reason I can think of is for a bigger market. This game should really only be in development for next gen systems and focus on making a behemoth of a game rather than cross-generational. If it doesn't come out on next gen systems, I will probably skip as well.

You are joking right?

Correct. You might get a little bit of an eye brow raise with Last of Us, but funds in my wallet are strictly reserved for next gen titles.

I'm pretty sure it's cross gen.
