I’ve just received an email from my Sega contact that the 360 version of the game will be released on November 24th but the PS3 version won’t be released until December. This means that the 360 version will get the holiday shopping advantage.
I’ve asked this question before and I’ll ask it again. When it comes to next generation multiplatform titles, why can’t publishers release them day and date on each console? Are they trying to take advantage of Black Friday by squeezing the 360 version out early? I don’t think Microsoft paid them for a staggered released so what gives? If you want to have balance with 3rd party titles, you must release them day and date with each console.
I’m hoping Sony cracks the whip in 2009 to create some balance in this industry. Microsoft has truly dominated by successfully marketing their products to death. Sony doesn’t want to spend money on exclusives but they could spend a little money to at least ensure that PS3 gamers can get a multiplatform game when it’s FIRST released and not weeks later. Don’t even get me started on how Europe gets fucked in the ass hard when it comes to Playstation 3 releases. Europe is their number one market right now and they are literally getting screwed with all major first party releases from Sony.
If you are a PS3 owner, don’t just sit idly while this continues to happen. Send an email to Sony and tell them to start putting their hands on 3rd party releases so you can get the games when they are first released.
WHAT THE HELL?
Is it still 2006?
I thought this crap was already dealt with.
It’s just a sonic game but still, what reason is there for a developer to not release the game on both platforms on the same day?It’s not like they can still say the ps3 is too hard to develop for and needs more time.It’s been 2 years already.They should of been able to figure out the system by now.
Do people still buy sonic games?
Because to me they just get worse and worse. And this one looks pretty dumb too.
wow this dude is going nuts on the 360 balls dude its a sonic game who cares come on now 360 this 360 that shits so funny
where are the red ring of death stories that the nxe brought to xbox no cant post that huh lol
Because its so funny how that rrod shit with the nxe is only on n4g and it hasnt been proven that it even happend or the nxe is even the cause. second if you don’t like what he posts why do you come here. go to n4g with that bullshit we don’t need fanboys here we are gamers we don’t need your bullshit posts.
He just simply stated that they are still showing favoritism to the 360 when it comes to 3rd parties and that sony needs to step it up in that department and its consumers need to protest so it will stop how the fuck is he swinging on 360’s nutts for just stating facts. Its seems you are too busy swinging on sony’s nutts. If you don’t care for what 360 is doing then don’t post. simple as that. quit whining like a little bitch
Hmm, stuff like this kinda rubs me the wrong way. I agree with you though Torrence. I think that if you’re gonna bring it out on all the platforms it should be on the same day. I’m not sure how well a Sonic game will sell, but that’s not the point. The PS3 users who want this have to wait now.
Before i jumped the gun and start pointing fingers.
Torrence. As a PS3 owner yourself and being in the industry. (I’m not pointing you out particularly) Does anybody ask why?
Sony might have good reason. Sega might have a good reason.
Before we start assuming. You know what they say….?
tell me about it i live in europe and we still dont have resistance2! its out next friday, we dont have a video store on psn or quore and the US gets demos before we do! and theres more ps3s in europe than american its BS
oh and we got the dualshock3 months after it was released in america!
my dude bully im no fanboy here all that torrence post on this site is 360 shit and listen to warzone all he do is talk about 360 shit i think 360 is a good system but the ps3 is a better system and its going to show starting next year give me one game that even looks near as good as killzone 2 give me one lol shits funny dude and no one gives a fuck about a sonic game lol
he has all systems talk about all systems
This is what he is stating right here he has no control of information that he is getting.
“I’ve just received an email from my Sega contact that the 360 version of the game will be released on November 24th but the PS3 version won’t be released until December.”
Why does that make him a fanboy? Like he has said countless times before we got the human sony market man that is hiphopgamer (no disrespect) There has to be someone to point in the other direction or then you know what this becomes a one sided site, like the countless others that are out there. I own all three systems an i love them all but lets just face it sony is not the god of the console, it has a lot of things that it needs to improve on as well as microsoft and nintendo. This area that torrence is talking about is one of them. This is why i love this site because we don’t get recycled trash like other sites do. I know about the rrod and i don’t need to read about it every fucking time it happens. Thats not news. Hell matter of fact he even posted a video and posted in the forums as well on n4g when his 360 rrod so i mean what more is there to talk about as far as rrod. You cant make any more news about the fucking rrod, its there we know it, they fucked up ok. lets fucking move on. Sony has fucked up as well when it comes to the updates, and network stability but do you want to hear about that every fucking time you get on the fucking internet to look at a site no. We want to get on and look at information pertaining to our systems and the games we play and communicate as a community. All this bickering back an forth about what system is better is a bunch of bullshit because its all a matter of opinion and what a person wants out of a console. The only thing sony can prove is that its more powerful, and that doesn’t make it better because if it did it wouldnt be in last place right now. Its all a matter of opinion and you cant argue it. One person might want all graphics when he plays a game, another may want just fun game play, while the other might want community aspect of it. some may want to watch movies, others may want to download classics, the point is what one person wants the other may not even be fucking interested in. so all this bickering about whats better is useless and pointless. Every one has a different preference and nobody can say whats better and whats not. Its so funny how sony fanboys, and microsoft fanboys are sitting here bickering about bullshit while nintendo just sails right on by without putting forth any effort, its a less powerful system, doesnt have as many features and the games for some can come to question about, but they are free sailing way with the lead in the market and didnt have to put forth as much effort. wake up people gaming is not about whats more powerful, what has more features that have nothing to do with gaming, or how big the graphics are, its about how much fun can i have playing games alone, with my friends, and online. Thats what the fuck we should be talking about because thats what gaming is about. This generation of gamers makes me fucking sick.
Well said, Bully. Too much “fuck” though lol
wow boo bully dude y r u bitchin we all no y ps3 is in last cause of the price lol and xbox is about 90% kids lol ps3 is more for the older age lol
Video games were made because of kids. And you were a kid once before….
@Bucnasty231 – WRONG, xbox is not 90% kids. That’s Wii.
@Fruityskills – WRONG games weren’t made because of kids, they were made as an alternative source of entertainment.
I know that but uhmm nvm I guess lol
alright i i will say about 75% lol its more 12 year olds playing call of duty or whatever on the 360 than the ps3
