Kinda messed up how Bungie left the community that built them from the ground up just because a company paid them money.

Yes, businesses should be paid in popsicles, rainbows, and unicorns!

1 year exclusives isn't something that should be condoned, NO other game does it and every other game that does 1 month exclusivity or whatever has enough content to where it doesn't matter

Edited by Alex_Supertramp1: 8/14/2015 1:29:02 PMAlso, no other games do this? Lol, new Tomb Raider is Xbox exclusive for a whole year. That's the whole game, not a shitty strike and a crappy gun! Let's not forget also, the first Tomb Raider came out on PSone before Xbox even existed! So, don't get your panties in a bunch over developer loyalty to a particular console. These companies are in business to make money, they don't give two shits about console fanboy loyalties. http://www.gamespot.com/articles/ps4-pc-get-xbox-timed-exclusive-rise-of-the-tomb-r/1100-6429137/ It's business, get over it. You are the consumer, vote with your wallet. If you don't like it, don't buy it.

Think of it this way Destiny+How+tdb+ttk is 140$ if you paid from start, as a xbox player you are paying THE SAME PRICE as a playstation player, the only difference is that you get WAY less content than them, an entire year before we get a strike or gun? by then itll already have been experienced and flushed out. Tomb Raider is 60$ on xbox and playstation. As an xbox player the game comes out a year earlier for you. You still pay the SAME price for the SAME amount of content, the only difference is it comes out earlier than playstation. Which doesn't matter because you're paying the same price no matter what, playstation and xbox both get THE FULL GAME WITH NO CONTENT LOCKED OUT

Edited by Alex_Supertramp1: 8/14/2015 2:10:03 PMAlso, this doesn't really make much sense. If no one has played the strike on Xbox, then nothing has been flushed out or experienced by Xbox players. So, essentially the content that you are missing from TTK, you will get in the form of access to the strikes you haven't played yet. I don't see how you think this is such a different concept from Tomb Raider being held back for a year. Except Tomb Raider is holding back ALL the content for a year, yet asking for the same price. People who love that franchise and have followed it since the first PlayStation, want to play it as soon as it comes out, they don't want to wait a year and pay $60 dollars for a year old game. That's asinine reasoning. Again Tomb Raider used to ONLY be on PlayStation, BEFORE XBOX EVER EXISTED
-
except that's one less piece of content we get to play or obtain, and you CANT deny that even on playstation with all this extra stuff that this game isn't lacking in content even with the 2 DLCs
-
Edited by Alex_Supertramp1: 8/14/2015 2:18:45 PMYou do realize you are crying about two strikes, one gun, and one pvp map, that is literally like nothing bro. That's including base game and two dlcs. And the strikes aren't even good.
-
There are like 6 strikes in the base game, that's none
-
There were not six exclusive strikes what are you talking about? I wish.
-
No I mean in the base game for xbox
-
Base game we had six strikes on ps4. One on earth, one on moon, two venus, two Mars
-
Or you could look at it that I am getting NO CONTENT for a full year, but they are still asking me to pay $60 for a year old game! Not big on reason are you bub?
-
Well if your person p I'm gonna sell you this Ferrari for 1 million $ But if your person x I'm gonna sell you this Ferrari for 1 million, however it doesnt have any windows and has scratches all over it Scenario 2: If your person x I'm gonna sell you this car now If your person p I'll sell you the same type of car but its a year until we restock, it is the exact same car but just a year late
-
You are comparing sports cars to video games, also you are talking about damaged and defective property, not exclusivity between companies. Point is, you are bitching about practices that BOTH consoles engage in. You can stick your fanboy head in the sand and pretend it doesn't exist with your console of choice, but you would be wrong.
-
You can't just drop all exclusivity under one type. There are many kinds of timed exclusivity and in destiny's case its one that means one fanbase gets less than the other. In Tomb Raider's case you're getting the same amount of content, just a year late. You don't play Tomb Raider until the year comes. But in Destiny we play it even though we have less than the other console

Edited by Alex_Supertramp1: 8/14/2015 2:36:09 PMYou are missing the point. You are getting a year old game for the price of a new game. I'm sorry, but your beloved Xbox is making deals to screw players over too. This is industry standard. I really don't see the major differentiation between these two concepts. A timed exclusive is a timed exclusive, period. It's special snowflake content to make fanboys of a particular console feel special. You are mad because you used to feel special when Halo was only on Xbox, and you probably bragged about it like the special fanboy that you clearly are. Now that Bungie has switched sides you feel all abandoned and neglected, yet you don't make the simple and logical choice that a disgruntled customer should make, and simply boycott the product. It's obviously bothering you, you are obviously upset. It's a consumer economy, vote with your wallet and don't buy the product. I can tell you for 100 percent certainty I won't be paying 60 dollars for a year old game. I may catch it later on down the line in the used discount bin at gamestop. I tell you what I also won't do, I won't spend my money, knowing full well that I'm being ripped off, and then get on some forum somewhere and whine about it. You knew there were exclusives on Destiny, don't try to play dumb now. This is nothing new. You knew it before you bought the game, but you bought it anyway. And you continue to buy expansions. So, if you are getting ripped off, then you are the idiot, not the company. they got your money!! They rip you off and you still keep coming back for more.
-
Actually I don't like console exclusivity in any form, but I understand how killzone and halo are exclusive respectively. I've wanted to play killzone and uncharted but I can't
-
Apples and Oranges, this is very poor analogy.
-
Edited by Alex_Supertramp1: 8/14/2015 1:15:52 PMOk, so what about exclusives that Never go to the other consoles? Like entire games? Like Halo. PlayStation never got Halo. People always blame Bungie and PlayStation for this Destiny deal, but they forget that Microsoft had to sign off as well. They could have refused Destiny entirely. They didn't have to release a limited product on Xbox, nobody blames them for their money grab.
-
If they didn't we would lose out on any destiny
-
Still trying to argue for your blameless, pure, and innocent multinational corporation? ....sigh.... fanboy logic....
-
Honestly I don't see one thing I've said that at all makes me out as a fanboy? Is it because I'm mad for paying the same amount of money for less of a product?
-
The simple fact that you can't admit that not only did Microsoft played a hand in the Destiny deal, but they do the same sort of thing with other games. You defend them by making some huge distinction between holding back a few strikes and holding back a whole game. When it's the same kind of bullshit and Microsoft does it too. I'm sure there are other examples, but honestly I'm bored with this conversation and don't feel like digging them up.
-
You're saying that as if you know that they sat Microsoft down at a meeting, they didn't. They separated them selves from Microsoft, and activision got a deal with sony for exclusivity
