Sony would still be in the same position regardless of having MW as an exclusive or not. Killzone 2 proves my point.

This MW exclusivity deal was a rumor and nothing more. It’s similar to the 50 million GTA dlc rumor.

So basically what you are telling is you made a video about a game in 07 with basically no source or information and you are flying by the seat of your pants and this is relavent or important why? You do realize the PS3 didn’t have a worldwide launch at the time VS the 360 being available worldwide. The big launches were between 11 Nov 06 Japan to March 07 for Europe. Why would Activision or Infinity think it would be good business to make the COD MW exclusive when they just had COD 2 that was launched on the 360 in 06 sell a million copies? They as a company were seeing what everyone else was seeing in 2006-07. Attach rates, console sales and the issue of development for the PS3. Seeing that you have no information and you are just going by some sort of memory about somthing no one else has ever heard major site like IGN or consumer I find it hard to believe this was entertained as an option.

@tdavis was up dog check it out just like how splinter cell was on ps3 and 360 and now currently it’s only on 360 it’s not like that couldn’t happen. In business and especially this generation we’ve learned that anything can happen.

This paticular interview i’m referring too as the source was done shortly after call of duty 4 came out and that’s when it was mentioned about infinity ward going to sony to have an exclusive opportunity for call of duty.

I’ve searched around for it too, if i’m not mistaken i believe it was a gamespot interview but it’s wierd i couldn’t find it either but for those who feel I made this up ya’ll can kiss my ass and soon you really gonna kiss my ass, I have a few things up my sleeve well anyway peace

Yeah, that’s why I didn’t even touch that subject. I don’t understand why COD a PC franchise originally would all of a sudden become a PS3 exclusive.

Yeah, I’ve been wondering where HipHop got this information from. He should really list his sources. He didn’t even give a time frame as to when this happened, leaving us completely in the dark.

Sounds like a bullshit article for website hits to me.

Activision never offered Sony this deal as far as I know. I’ve searched all over for it and can’t find it. How could they offer them exclusivity when they are already on PC and 360 before the PS3 came out?
