Microsoft games not exclusive to 360 anymore??? - Blu-ray Forum

andyn1080 · 03-23-2008, 01:24 AM

ok so i heard that MS game studio's broke off and now the 360's only exclusive studio is RARE. which would mean we (ps3 guys) get gears of war, ninja gaiden 2, any new DOA game, ect. I was told this by a major 360 fanboy and he was bummed out about it, but i cant find this any were online. does any one have any info on this or have they even ever heard this before? i think it might be FUD b/c this would have been major news in the game/console world.
please anyone with any info please post.

Blu boy · 03-23-2008, 01:44 AM

He read it in the Game Informer Parody section in the latest issue. (Yeah yeah, I know.... I'll do anything to get my paws on Crisis Core though!

)

OK would people read what he says before commenting. HE did say if you read it again.

DetroitSportsFan · 03-23-2008, 01:46 AM

I find this difficult to believe. I know about the Bungie thing, but I've heard nothing about this.

I was talking about like where was he when he was told this or heard it. And where did the MS fanboy hear it from.

Smells like an April fools joke to me. The April issues of game mags always pull stunts like this.

DC_Street · 03-23-2008, 01:50 AM

it is in the latest issue of Game Informer, the APRIL edition

reiella · 03-23-2008, 01:50 AM

Ok. Ninja Gaiden 2 and Gears of War are published/produced by MGS [ie, they foot the funds], not developed.

However, DOA is pretty much entirely in Tecmo's possession. It's up to them if they want to release on different platforms.

Are you sure you aren't thinking of how Bungie got out of being one of the MGS studios?

andyn1080 · 03-23-2008, 01:51 AM

ive been looking for links/websites/ANYTHING but im really starting to think this guy was lying for some stupid reason, i dont know where he gets his info but he also said a few months ago he read/heard that mac and windows were going to make a ultimate console after the 360......i laughed b/c come on mac and MS working together, yea right.
anyway im looking for anyone to post a link to anything stating MS game studio's not exclusive to 360. i cant find a damn thing. and no i didnt read this in game informer.......but maybe he did........what a dumbass if he did and he is running around telling everyone about this........holy hell is the mac and ms gameconsole in there too??????? ill have a good hard laugh and have to call him a dumbass for a long time if this is true.

no i know about the bungie thing thats not what im talking about.

Is this thread a joke?

No, MGS aren't breaking off.

Bungie are independant but will have an exclusive relationship with MS like Insomniac do with SCEA. Rare IS a Microsoft Game Studio. Team Ninja are not, that's a single game publishing deal as far as I know.
