[QUOTE="DonTadow, post: 2981514, member: 22622"] FYI Squaresoft has already hinted that the next series of Final Fantasy's will not be exclusive to the playstation 3. After 12 its everyman for itself. Square tested the waters when it released FFXI for the XBOX. Also, Konomi has not agreed ot an agreement to launch Metal Gear exclusively on the PS2 either. Rockstar has already said they will be releasing the next GTA on both systems. I do believe that the days of exclusive third party titles is over :(. And I"M a big sony fan so its kinda disapponting to hear that news, but the reasoning makes complete sense. The company's were loosing money by not doing simultaneious releases. Also, titles like Dragonquest and Xenosaga may not be as big as a gta in america, but they are HUGE in Japan and thats the important market. You can redo pong and please the American gamers (IE tabletennis) but you have to have solid RPG hits to please the Asian gamer, thus the reason why MIcrosoft tanked. Microsoft has also said that they are willing to seriously open up the pocket books if they can get a really good exclusive title (though asp reviously stated this is very unlikely). As for the origiinal dollar. Of course we'll pay 600 bucks. IF you do the inflation math, the Atari came out at ..what 200 300 dollars which would be well over 600 bucks in today's dollar. We'll buy it, smile and then have a thread about how angry we are that we paid so much. [/QUOTE]
