If u are just as outraged please stop supporting bandwagon coporate systems like the 360,
Aren't the PS3 and Wii also "corporate systems" like the 360?

So you're basically saying lets stop supporting all the major systems and instead support the independent, non-corporate, 'mom & pop store' console manufactures like.....?

In the time it takes you to argue with retards on the internet for the umpteenth time, you could probably get something useful done.

First off, MGS, GTA and Final Fantasy did not start on the PS or even the NES they all started on a Japanese home gaming computer (with the exeption of GTA). And also, I don't think that Guitar Hero was ever a PS exclusive. That being said, yes, they do have some good exclusives, but then so does the 360. Halo, Gears of War, and Crackdown are some of the few I can think of and own. but also, Microsoft brings in more money than Playstation so they can afford to buy the exclusives the biggest problem with your argument is that you're forgetting that these companies are actually competing, so they'll want to have more exclusives and run their company better. Sony cannot afford to buy the exclusives because they so stubbornly refuse to lower the price of their console. so, Microsoft being the smart company (and also having huge success with their line of computers) can afford to sell their console and games for cheaper, sony can't and have pidgeon-holed them selves to being the more expensive console with the mediocre exclusives while the companies that run them selves right can buy the good exclusives and sell their console for cheap and therefore be better in my opinion.

MGS2: Sons of Liberty went to Xbox after a limited PS2 exclusivity time period.

Resident Evil jumped ship from PS to Nintendo first and now games in the series are released for all platforms. No RE5 for Wii but they get exclusives so it evens out.

It's likely that Guitar Hero and Devil May Cry were only PS "exclusive" because PS2 had the market locked down until Xbox rolled into town. The market is in a different place than it was in the PS2 days, you have to look at it from a wider perspective than what you currently are.

Do you know what a monopoly is? If you don't, I would understand why you would think Microsoft has one.

Also reported.

You make a decent point, but your basically asking for a huge argument between people who think the 360 suck, and the people who don't think so.

Also your poll is completely broken.
Your three options are basically

Yes
Sort of Yes
And No, but I know inside that I'm wrong.

Don't be pissed off that your 400 dollar PS3 no longer has it's own exclusive titles. What the hell is the point anyway. If your so pissed off, then go buy MAG or Resistance 3 when they come out.

Playstation did not have exclusive rights to all Metal Gear Solid or Final Fantasy games. I played MGS2 on my xbox, so the fact that the fifth game is coming to the 360 is just a return to form.

The fact of the matter is that Sony is losing money, the 360 is in more households, and a smart developer wants to get his titles out to as many people as possible. If you're not a fan of the 360 or Microsoft, fine. Let's not turn this into a fanboy war. But don't accuse developers of selling out or acting offended when exclusivity is lost. That's the power of the free market at work.

I am confused. Are you stating that because microsoft has acquired exclusives for their xbox system it is a monopoly?

Techinically... Monopolies are not allowed under the United States Federal Laws.

You can't REALLY call Microsoft a monopoly because Apple's just as big as MS now-a-days.

Your title of your thread "When will the Xbox360 be more original and stop buying out exclusive titles" and your poll title "Mircosoft is a monopoly" are two different topics.

You seem to be stating that because MS snatches up exclusives, that means it's an evil corporation... Uhm, no they're just smart. They offer more money or they get to developers first.

Sony should also be considered a monopoly if you want to call Microsoft one.. :/

No more whining! Who gives a flying donkey if it's a "monopoly"

What do you say? The Xbox 360 is a machine! It cannot have original thoughts! I would say you are just trying to be evil to it, but it cannot feel sadness, either.

fail poll is fail
you are an antimicrosoft zealot, and would prefer google or sony to own your soul instead. fine.


standard oil was a monopoly, microsoft only wants to be, and an antitrust lawsuit every other year doesn't help them at all

This thread is weak. Metal Gear Solid hasn't even always stuck by PS, but whatever.

A monopoly according to the dictionary is: exclusive control of a commodity or service in a particular market, or a control that makes possible the manipulation of prices.

So in a weird way all exclusives would create monopolies and all 3 systems would be guilty. I'm just saying
Thats exactly why exclusives are bad for game manufacturers, why sell 1 game on 1 console when you can triple your earnings (or if you arent that much of a sell out then cut the Wii version of the game, you hear that Dead Rising for the Wii) and make even better games further down the line. Its business, not your best friend and should be treated as such.

lol. Poor little fan boy. Just because xbox is getting better games now then the PS3 he has to rant and say xbox sucks. I don't mind the PS3, or sony, but serve the damn PS3 Fanboys right(not all are bad, just the one who have no mind at all, and can't take other people opinions.) Anyways, I grew tired of hearing PS3 better then xbox cause we got more stuff, and our online is FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ok, good for you, but I prefer the games on xbox better. A lot of people don't seem to get that. I do kindof wish that the game companies just make all games multiplatform, beside wii, but only reason is because I don't see a lot of hardcore games on it.
