Activision and IW only care about the $

[bizXn]

Recent news say that IW is going to release new DLC for mw2, the problem is that it is exclusively for the Xbox, this is a bad step.


Why? Well they are forgetting the PC and PS3 community. I have seen people in the Edgegamers Ventrilo server teamspeakin or talking about mw2.


Bad Step IW.

I believe that's what happens when Microsoft shells out cash for DLC exclusivity. They did the same thing with Rockstar.

Though I have to agree with you that IW has forgotten about the PC.

PS3's figures have actually gone up quite a good bit between when Activision said that and now. The $299 price-drop was a pretty big spike in sales, in addition to the recent PS3-exclusives driving sales up.

actually its always about the money, with nearly everybody and everything, money money money.
follow the money trail it will lead you to the culprit, its the utmost standing motive....etc etc blah blah.

this is pretty much the exact reason for counter-strike source also, and possibly a CSS2 or whatever in the future is because any game that is popular will find an excuse to have its community pay its money over again. this is the reason for almost all sequels (far cry 2 anybody). ok so far cry 2 was/is actually a good game, but it was just cashing in on the far cry 1 title.
etc etc

Well when it comes to cross-platform games, the 360 usually dominates in sales. That and the PS3 is apparently a pain to program for costing Dev companies more to bring a game to the platform. The programing difficulties can also degrade the quality of the game...yeah, I'm talking about Bayonetta.

All this is coming from the proud owner of a PS3.
