Speak for yourself. We're getting the exact same game who really cares

But PS4 gets more

Let me put this into a metaphor for you: Say there are only 3 types of people in the world, and they each wear a different color shirt. One type wears green, the other wears blue, and the last type wears both (just follow along, the last one doesn't actually matter too much, as they get the best of both worlds, they just spend a LOT of extra money on both styles of shirts). Now, it doesn't really matter who's who, as it's just a clothing choice. However, say you work for a restaurant that started out selling food to everyone, but the restaurant got bought out by a company that said "You will no longer sell food to those who wear blue shirts, only to those who wear green." After the transition, you restaurant comes up with a recipe that ends up being one of the best ever created. Everyone wearing green shirts is going to be ecstatic, while those wearing blue won't be able to enjoy it. Fast forward a 10 years, and your restaurant new recipe has been better than anyone could have ever dreamed about. Now, your managers find a way to get control back in their own restaurant, and leave the former owners behind. They still have the makings of that original recipe, but they want to make it better and different, something new. Remember, this is a business after all, and you know those who have eaten with you before (green shirts) will continue to eat at the restaurant. But how do you draw in the blue shirt wearers who have never had a taste of the food? You offer free samples. Put a big sign out front that says "Welcome all those who wear blue! Come try our new menu, free sample included, and you can even try our new recipe first!" It's a good business tactic. Bring in new customers and offer them an incentive. Those who have eaten at your restaurant before know how good the food can be, and most will stick with it. Others may switch shirts just to get a taste of the new food first, but in the end, everyone makes out the same. TL:DR Moral of the story: Dude, chill. We all get it in the end. [spoiler]I'm going to copy and paste this into every post I see about people complaining that PS is getting shit earlier than XB. I've been a 'green shirt' guy much more so than a 'blue shirt', and i'm actually happy Bungie is welcoming their potential new fan base with open arms, as do I.[/spoiler]

I wasn't happy with the early access that the PlayStation got, but your post really put it into perspective and I'm surprised to say that I'm actually kind of ok with it now.

Yup. The one thing we have to remember is that Bungie is still a business. They need to keep building their fanbase. Like I said before, let the, get their early beta (new platform for Bungie. They need to make sure everyhing is ready and runs correctly or it could spell bad news) and let it last longer. As for the early DLCs and exclusive (timed) content, again no biggie. We get the same final product as they do. They may get an exclusive skin or logo or something, possible an off-storyline mission or 2, but the heart and sould of the game will be equal on all platforms. Thats what matters most.

How is it fair in the end when they get exclusive content though
-
That 'exclusive content' has been said to be timed only. And those that aren't are more than likely going to be cosmetic, like an exclusive color, or logo. Possibly an off-storyline mission or 2. Again, at the end of the day, Bungie knows how to not alienate one of their larger customer bases. Have faith, young pdawan. I assure you, you won't miss out on anything truly worthwhile.
-
That what was worrying me the most if it was completely exclusive or not. So we will get it in time is it confirmed that Xbone will?

Edited by Rex084: 2/1/2014 1:32:35 AMFrom 2 separate interviews i read from a couple moths back, it specifically said 'for a period of time' (not sure on the exact wording, but it was along those lines). Basically, timed exclusives. Now, that's not to say that there won't be [i]some[/i] true exclusive content, however, as i mentioned before, don't expect it to be anything you'd really miss being on either of the XBs. I, too, will be on XB. It doesn't bother me at all that the PS platforms are getting some stuff early, or even some stuff specifically just for them. We know what Bungie is capable of, where as a lot of the PS guys may have never really played all through the Halo series. Let them get some stuff just to say 'Welcome to Bungie games.' You'll still get a game worth playing, and so will they.

Alright thanks for pointing this out. I guess the community is not all jerks (to put in nicer words lol)
-
No worries, bud. I understand where people get a little upset, but at the same time, it's just a game, being made by a company who needs to do as much business as possible. It really is a good decision on their part to do some stuff for the PS crowd. What better way to welcome an entirely new fan base to the 7th Column than incentives to try it out?
-
It makes negligible difference. It's the same game.
-
The same general game but they get more of it
-
It's still a bit overdramatic to say we've been 'betrayed'

He is a bit over dramatic but he's just stating his opinion
