Na, I'm not gonna jump on you about anything, bro.
Though, on the topic of Microsoft not putting out for Destiny, that was found to actually not be the case: http://www.geek.com/games/bungies-destiny-was-originally-going-to-be-a-microsoft-exclusive-1604640/
Destiny was actually going to be largely an Xbox title. However, we already know that a deal was made between Sony and Activision which more or less bought the game right out from under Microsoft in a hostile takeover. The company itself got screwed over big time by the Sony power play, and this was because they wanted Destiny to be the flagship title for the PS4. Its not that Microsoft didn't try, its that Sony kept blocking them. Its also the reason why Halo fans didn't receive anything in the game as a nod to the previous franchise.
Its not the first time we've seen aggressive business tactics being used for games. Microsoft responded in kind to getting Tomb Raider as a straight up Xbox Exclusive.
It'd be nice if these companies could knock off the whole exclusive thing in general, and give players on both consoles equal rights and access to game content.

I will say this though , Sony has been hurting Microsoft every chance they can and Destiny isn't the end seems Black ops 3 will be the first in cod history to have exclusives on Sony before Microsoft and PC. I don't blame Sony for taking advantage its just a shame that gamers get hurt because of these decisions . I am a Sony gamer but I still own every system I have gotten since 87' so I'm a jack of all trades so to say . and all Sony is doing right now is trying to put that final nail in the Xbox coffin , now that they have taken a huge lead in this drawn out console war. and yes 5 Sony ps4's sold for every Microsoft xbox-one console sold is a huge lead . its sad all these smart business guys and none of them realise more money for all lives in full cross platform games . yes it would be a road never taken and would be hard to setup but think of the possibilities it would rock the gaming industry to its pure core . and make millions apon millions for all involved . think about it a joint made system capable of playing both Sony and Microsoft games from ps2 & Xbox to ps4 & xbox-one . thousands of games we grew up with and miss dearly . this is untapped potential in all parties included and could make a monster of a system / company but sadly we will never see such and for that I am sad
