Poll: Earlier or Better - Blu-ray Forum

Since more and more 3rd party exclusives are becoming merely timed exclusives what do you like more?

To get the game earlier, but not the best version?

To get the game later and get the best version?

Does getting the game earlier but not better come with a patch that will eventually come out to make the improvements?

Isn't this a bit of a false dichotomy?

not really. of course not every timed exclusive falls into these two catagories, but these two seem to be the ones that occur frequently and have some tradeoff.

of course nobody is going to vote for something like The orange box where ps3 gets it later and the version is worse. so i didn't bother making that an option.

Well, I'm going to have to vote neither anyways.

i see where your coming from, but thats not the point of this thread.

this situation (later, but better or earlier, but worse) seems to be cropping up more and more and i just wanted to know what ppl prefer.

For me it depends. First of all how long do I have to wait, and what bonuses do I get for waiting?

Waiting 2 years for a little bit of extra DLC is pretty ridiculous to me. Then again, 6 months for a completely upgraded game seems like a pretty good trade off to me.
