More PS exclusives in upcoming DLC?

Pulled this article from Reddit. Can anyone confirm/deny the additional exclusives in DLC? I'm fine with timed exclusive gear/weapons. What I'm not okay with is exclusive strikes/crucible maps. That is content in the game that one party is receiving, and another party is not, [b]for the same price[/b]. And I get it, this garbage happened with CoD to PS owners, but even those timed exclusives were only for a month. These are until [b]Fall 2015[/b]! I'm not saying it sucks because I have an XBOne. I'm saying it's a terrible business practice and the gaming industry needs to learn that, no matter which group of console owners is getting burned. Thoughts? EDIT: People are saying the raid isn't exclusive, just another strike. That makes more sense, however it doesn't change the principle of the matter: The same price for less content only hurts gamers.

  • I have both systems and think they're both great but I do agree that a year is a long time for timed exclusives. If anything it should just be a month maybe possibly 3 but that will be pushing it. I am not a fan of timed exclusives as believe that if a game is multiplatform all content should be available to all platforms at the same time. The only big reason I can think of for the long time exclusive is because of money as they're probably making more from the sells on PS than they are on Xbox as Sony probably offered to take a smaller cut of the proceeds as they'll make it back with more consoles being sold which did happen as there are still a large market out there of those who haven't upgraded to next gen yet and a lot of people like to have all the content right away so they will have a more incentive to want to purchase the PS4 if Destiny is one of the games they really wanted to play.
