Did Bungie make a mistake by going to PS4

bungie made a mistake.

bungie is doing the right thing.

I think that bungie made a mistake by going to PS4. The reason I say this is not because I think play station is lame or i think xbox is the best its because I belive in tradition. Bungie has been with us xbox kids for as long as some of us can remember and to break that bond it held with us I'd almost like to say I feel BETRAYED!! But another reason I feel this way is because I don't want to have to deal with shitty console wars all over the damn place It's annoying and ruines otherwise perfectly normal good video game conversations.and no offence to PS gamers but I don't like your community I find xbl to be a much more friendly and welcoming community.not saying we don't have our fare share of scum bags cause belive me we do.but I've noticed there are a lot more on psn.give me all your opinions and I beg you to not start a console argument.

  • I wholeheartedly think they made the right choice.Yes, Microsoft dominated last generation, but right now they dont seem to be handling things well. They seem to be very focused on profit and seem to want to monopolize the electronics industry (windows 8 built for mobile devices, Xbox One having television capabilities, xbox live music, etc.). On the other hand, Sony has presented itself as a very friendly, innovative, and loyal company. They put better hardware in the PS4 but still made it cheaper than the Xbox one, they revised their controller to the point where its equally or even more comfortable that the Xbox controllers (I've had hand-on with both and this is just my opinion), and while Microsoft i still trying to get its shit together, Sony recently revealed Project Morpheus, which if you don't know is their equivalent of the Oculus Rift. Overall it seems that Sony is for the gamers, and Microsoft is for domination, so I think Bungie did good choosing gamers over money. And by the way, don't say Bungie betrayed you Xbox gamers, cause before Halo, all the games they made were exclusively for PC. Once Halo 2 was released, they were exclusively Xbox. Just be happy you at least get to play the game on your native platform and don't have to go out and buy a brand new console just to play one game.

      Oh common! Xbox has the halo franchise that will never come to Playstation. So what that the content is delayed, you will still get it at some point. In addition there are exclusive content deals for other games as well on both sides, so it's not like Destiny is the only one. Activision probably was the one making that deal anyway. On the other hand Bungie still has that bad taste from the relationship with Microsoft...

      • It's not Bungies fault that Sony forked over a shitload of money. Xbox didn't think it was worth their time so that's why PlayStation gets everything first.

If you have a game strictly for xbox, you lose profits from people who prefer playstation. If you have a game thats universal on all systems, you make more top dollar. So why cater to one specific system when you could double your profits from releasing on multiple systems? Thats corporates goal. If you have a game thats strictly made for one system, its probably contracted that way and that game is bound to that system unless what binds the two breaks or in other words, contract runs out. Probably the reason why Mass Effect 1 took awhile to come to ps3. Hmm who knows? The reason I bought Mass Effect back in the day on xbox was because playstation didn't have all three games. However, now that all three games are on PlayStation, I'm ready to trade in my xbox and get Mass Effect for ps3. That game will always be awesome lol.

          • I own a xb1 and ps4, i play both consoles. They are both great equally in their own ways. I do however have to disagree with ps having more scum bags, i ran into my fair share and I have to say xb takes the cake in that department.. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ maybe I'm just always running into all the asshats on xb my luck tho.

              • I sorta agree not completely it was a good move for them to branch off to ps but as I see these bungie bounty a happen i see the they have mostly favored ps I'm trying to say they need to show xbox a little more attention and that's coming from a ps guy

                  • No, its good that they opened up to the PS community. But what pissed me off and where they -blam!-ed up is that they completely abandoned their Xbox community and now this...

                  • I'm iffy with what you state. I think it is great that bungie got away from microsoft, but they can't leave behind a strong fan base they created. I think if someone is going to break off of a company, you don't turn around and go to its rival and give them exclusives. If your going to break off and make your own game, you make it equal for all consoles offered and not better on one. I play on 360 and generally, I didn't feel betrayed by bungie's move to Sony, but I thought it was unfair when they gave them exclusives. If you going to go into a company like Sony, you can't give them everything and give the xbox players the scraps.

                    • I think it was a good move. Destiny is a project to big just to keep to one console. They're branching out and pleasing more people and fans. Destiny will be enjoyed by gamers across all platforms.

                        Considering a large amount of players have left 360 for PS4 it makes sense. I was primarily a 360 player but the XB1 just didn't cut it for me. It was more expensive and lacked some really cool features the PS4 had to offer. Regardless I would be very annoyed if Bungie chose not to bring Destiny to PS4 instead of making their current choice. Don't see why XB fanboys are so mad about it, you still get your game and us PS players get it as well. Console wars are stupid in general.
