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

In Response To: about "looks...better supported on the PS4" (kornman00)

: 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

"[T]here’ll be “exclusive, playable” content for just the PlayStation versions." So far, the XBO version hasn't been announced to have anything special for it, either. That could change, though, but given how buddy-buddy Bungie and Sony have been, it seems likely that only the PS4 version of Destiny is getting something extra. Even if it's nothing huge, it's still something, plus the online population for the PS4 version of Destiny will likely be higher since, like most third-party titles, the PS4 version is tracking ahead of the XBO version in terms of preorders (on Amazon, the PS4 and XBO versions are sitting at #572 and #836 respectively). Of course, that won't matter if there's cross-platform play, but I doubt that will come to pass.
