about "looks...better supported on the PS4"

In Response To: Re: and a demo, and more free weapons (Gravemind)

: Meh. It's really a wash. The XBO has Forza 5, Ryse, and Dead Rising 3, with
: Titanfall coming early next year. The PS4 has Killzone, Drive Club, and
: Knack, with Infamous coming early next year. That's four for four as far
: as launch window exclusives go (well, exclusives that are coming to
: retail, anyway), so it comes down to personal preference. Personally, I'm
: more interested in the PS4's exclusives, plus it's less expensive (I only
: have enough to spend on one next-gen system this November), not to mention
: Destiny looks like it'll be better supported on the PS4. The $500 retail
: price combined with the fact that Halo is the only Xbox exclusive I'm
: really interested in means I'm holding off on getting an XBO until Halo 5
: drops.

The PS4 love that Bungie has been giving may just be due to an agreement (ie, money exchange) between Activision/Bungie and Sony (MS has their COD crap). Or it could just be that it's the most stable of the next-gen builds. Sony was ready to announce their new hardware first after all. I believe the Xbone devkits and sdks didn't come out of Alpha until near E3. So Bungie really wouldn't have had a true representation of the final platform running their game had they sided with MS.

It could also just be some kind of marketing thing...Bungie already has all the Xbox backers they need from Halo. The PS market hasn't been touched since Oni. So it makes sense for them to try to reach, reach, reach out to as many new gamers as possible.

Just my 2c
