I like Goincrazy response to this post. It's totally right and not blind sided. Just to add, you might be very vocal but think of this that Goincrazy pointed out. Money! In the world of business this makes that world turn around unlike the earth that uses gravitational pulls and rotations. The big point i am trying to make is this. We as xbox users are going to be getting this very same times exclusives eventually but at the cost out of our pockets. PPL Microsoft walked away with all rights to Halo and like it or not Bungie is their biggest concern when it comes to the competition of best FPS game for the year and years to come.
[b]"Why would I pay a lot of attention and pump money into my now competitor; once business partner merchandise?" [/b]
I won't if I was Microsoft and how many of you all would if you did own a system thats getting a lot of flank and negativity because they (Microsoft) became too relaxed during this era of evolved gaming consoles. It's their fault not Bungie's. For all Sony cared if they could have paid a bigger check and made DESTINY PS exclusive only. Period!! Trust me I am so thankful I don't have to look back at halo thats dead now for good in my personal gaming exp. We get to play destiny and get new content exclusive or not. And mind you the game will have enough content to hold you through before you even bother remember anything about not having exclusives if no one reminds you of it. Even if DESTINY has the ability to move consoles I am thankful sony is doing this good because if they wasn't who knows just they would have done or how much money they would have spent just to come out on top [b]"They could have bought DESTINY for playstation only to help move more units" [/b]wrap that around your mind a bit. We all know that a Bungie game has the reputation of moving more units on a console. Thats why Microsoft did what was done to halo. Besides why bother yourself about something thats not going to affect your gaming experience any how because you are not going to cross paths with anyone on playstation.
I was like you once. Bitter about the whole exclusives and early releases etc... But I have learned not to be after playing the beta. And I want to thank Bungie for the opportunity to allow we xbox users to do so. Because they already have coding experience with xbox and their servers but not playstation. Once again something we could not have experienced. Sony could simply write a bigger check and make this game Playstation only. But Bungie not being the greedy bastard! Most would make them out to be has a genuine love for the 7C and their fan base on the other side of the coin. They did not let us go, nor dropped us like a hot potato. For that I as a gamer am very thankful. And my choice of system is simply because of choice and comfort of controller. Thats what makes the difference to me and where it all lies for me personally. At the end of the day its not the console in your hand but the controller. Both consoles are great and look just about the same too me to realize console wars are nothing more than a companies gimmick to get buyers all rev up to buy! buy! buy! For these companies its ship! ship!! ship!!!

Thanks for the freshness after all this arguing going on around here... :) 9/9

Edited by TEKALL: 8/27/2014 2:33:47 AMThank you! You know my hope is to meet as many ppl like you on here in the real world of DESTINY but we know that this isn't the real world we live in. Sometime I think if we just sit back and watch the sunset for a moment then we will all have a much clearer mind and view to certain situations that unfold in life. I try to always bring reason and understanding to my comments. I am human and have made some bad post in the past by getting emotionally tangled which is no way to be while speaking your mind. In the end I hope we can all learn something positive from everyone we encounter in our life. On here we are all one breed; We are all gamers! Not a console or a company. Let peace rain on us all.

Well thank you I'm happy to know that you as an Xbox user understand what the big picture is. I am truly sorry you guys are not getting some of the content we are and when it does come out you'll have to pay for it or maybe if your lucky just work for it in the game some how, but I have my doubts about that. I'm used to World Of Warcraft a lot of stuff that we were given was worked into the game and we could work for it to get it, but in the end it still took time to get things which we paid for by buying time to play each month. I hope you all enjoy playing the game as much as we do I really don't think that y'all will really miss the exclusives. You know what the coolest exclusive was that I seen ever was, the R2D2 Xbox that freaking thing is awesome I love how ya push the button to turn it on and it does the little R2D2 whistle sound. Microsoft has taken care of you guys in the past I never seen a Ps console that even comes close to the R2D2 xbox. I seen a couple over rent a center the other day I almost bought one just to have it, I'm a StarWars nut.

LOL yes it was an awesome system to own. I too if i could would have just for the sake of having something i don't need. The wife would have nailed my you know what to the floor hahaha.

My gf wants to nail mine because I bought a ps4 and I've had my last ps3 for 3 years I thought I better get a new system because my other ps3 only lasted about a year maybe a little bit more but I played the hell out of them.

I have a broken 360 thanks to my 3yr old a system thats old as when it first came out. Now I have to put other things in front my dream of having a new system LOL so thats on a hold for me.

Edited by Goincrazy: 8/27/2014 5:23:08 AMWell trust me when I say this, with having two wonderful daughters ages 2 and 4 I find myself putting a lot of things I dream of on hold because being that I didn't think I was gonna ever have any children they themselves are one of my dreams that came true so other dreams mean nothing when comes to them. Lol my first daughter drowned the Xbox 360 I had with sweet tea lol. My gf didn't listen when I told her not to have drinks in cups or without lids in the living room .

LOL this made me laugh! You are right when it comes to our children everything else can be meaningless. Well she actually broke it while operating it playing her DVD's. She was just a bit too rough on the tray but she knows how to turn it on, turn on the TV and everything else. Her mom got me the xbox 360 way back then before she was in our life. LOL now her mom say not even she knows anything about the xbox and its hands off for her, but this little girl does her own thing. She only has to see it done once. Dad's with a life but love to game LOL.
