Splinter Cell not only on X-box!! Microsoft tried to hush it..

[Jome]

Microsoft tried to keep it a secret that the new game "Splinter Cell" is not a X-Box exclusive, which they wanted us to believe. (Pretty shady if you axe me)
Both Microsoft & Ubisoft has said for a long time that it will be a X-Box exclusive.
It's now known though, that the Microsoft-deal with Ubisoft is over after 2002, and then they're free to release it wherever they want.

It will be a PC-version, and it will very probably be a PS2 & Gamecube-version too..
Game looks dope as fuck.

If another console had a "EXCLUSIVE" title, and it turned to out to be all lies, don't you think it would be kinda shady?
It's like you defend them for all it's worth..

its comin to pc

everyone knows that,they didnt hide that at all

its exclusive to the xbox as a console,which means no other CONSOLE will get it

Actually Jome.... not to beef... but most people knew about this for a while... Ubi Soft told IGN.com about this back in August.... their making Splinterr Cell for GC and the PS2, but in no way will they be the same... Splinter Cell was made for the Xbox... and will be the games best version...

Halo was supposed to be only available on XBox but will be making a PC appearance sometime.  I think XBox Exclusive translates to 'get to play it first'.

[Black_Smoke]

yea

lol if ps2 and gamecube get it

lol there will be a huge graphic difference between there version and the xbox version

lol

[E. J. Rizo]

Jome.. not to beef cuz I really dont give a shit..


But you're just hatin!.. You probably didn't think the game looked "Dope as Fuck" until you found out it wasn't ONLY on Xbox. Just cuz you barely found out doesn't mean Microsoft was tryna make it a secret.. alot of people already knew... I think I heard it was only exclusive to Xbox for about 6 months.




And you act like Microsoft is way wrong for doing this but then again... I'm playin Medal Of Honor and Metal Gear Solid 2 on my Xbox.  It's all about tha money... everybody wants to get paid off those games.

[Instigator]

Oh well, it should have been an X-Box exclusive... but who cares really, the game is brilliant on Xbox and won't be better on other formats. So I don't really mind...

Nah, I'm not hatin. I actually thought that the game looked dope as fuck when I saw the X-Box previews, but since I don't have a X-Box yet I thought fuck it..
Microsoft tried to make it look like it was exclusive, because the PS2 & Gamecube versions isn't even announced OFFICIALLY yet.
Only the PC-version is.

Yup, that's the problem.
It is the reason why Sega stopped producing consoles, and it will be the reason why Microsoft OR Nintendo at some time will stop producing them.
Right now they're losing a LOT of money..
If Sega, Nintendo, Microsoft & Sony could co-operate, we would have gotten ONE HELL OF A CONSOLE, and games wouldn't have to be translated to each console, it would be the same market, the same marketing, the same everything.
But of course it will never happen.. Because of MONEY.
