I'm Tremendously Disappointed

To Sony fans: we're not being "whiny," and we're not asking for the same special treatment you guys are getting. We just want to be treated equally. We know what "timed content" is, and time will pass. We're just upset because [i]Destiny[/i], a multiconsole game, is being advertised exclusively on the PlayStation 4. I wouldn't be surprised if half of you didn't know it's going to be an XBox game, too. To Microsoft fans: I understand your concern about Bungie giving us the cold shoulder. I have the exact same issues with what's going on. But behaving like enraged children isn't going to help our case in the slightest, and you know it. If you want to be taken seriously, present your concerns in a calm and reasonable matter. To Bungie: You say you love us all equally, but what have you done to show it? When have you given us the slightest inkling that [i]Destiny[/i] on the XBox is anything but a courtesy? You've been well-known for loving and listening to your fans, but now you're catering to one community in particular. And it's taking it's toll. I, personally, am clinging to one final straw: the game itself. You've been acting as Antivision's -blam!-pony since you first signed a contract with them, and you've become something entirely different from the company I used to love so much. However, if the game doesn't justify your abhorrent behavior these past couple years, I'll seperate myself from the Seventh Column for good. And now comes the flame. From PS gamers who don't like XBox folks having opinions, possibly from a handful of XBox owners thinking I'm overreacting, and most definitely a combination of the two. But screw it, I've had my rant. EDIT: Moved to #Bungie.

    • This is really funny. Xbox players complaining about ignorance, then PS players whining about xbox players whining about exclusive content even though clearly the content wasn't being whined about in OP. Then you have the xbox players saying stupid comebacks to the PS players who say stupid comebacks back. Maybe we all could stop whining because whining causes more whiners to whine cause the console war on a forum which isn't about the consoles.

        • Sigh....you people had Halo for years, PSN gets an alpha and a 4 day early access and suddenly the sky is falling. Grow up, and so what if you are upset. You're an adult aren't you?

        • I don't care about the exclusive content at all, it's just that I was a huge bungie and currently huge halo fan, the only thing that bugs me is that I've been a loyal fan of bungies for years and now they're pretty much ignoring the Xbox fanbase, they have never at all mentioned Xbox at any of the recent showings, I don't care that it's on playstation at all, just kinda wish bungie would notice their old fan base a little more

              I'm not even going to try to explain why. If you really want to know look at the numerous amounts of threads about the exact same shit you're trying to spew that I've posted on. Really getting tired of seeing these threads. Also if you're complaining about this and you're over 18 I am obligated to tell you that you need to go outside and find new priorities, like getting laid.

            • Now that we finally moved past the Reach whining, we now have Xbox kids crying about "exclusive" content. Jesus. There's kids in other countries who are lucky to get a few ounces of fresh water and we're crying over content exclusivity on a video game console

                • I have been a bungie kid since Christmas of 2001 and it makes me sad to see all the xbox owners have their faith get shaken so easily. The way they lash out at PS4 owners and Bungie is unsettling! But, I want you to know we're not all like that. So, here is my message. I want to welcome you to a company that has brought me more joy than I can ever portray with words. I want to welcome you on behalf of every little punk who's face I have stomped in to a mud hole on multiplayer time and time again. I want to say welcome, from the bottom of my heart, and I hope you all get to experience the joy that I have shared with my friends over the last 13 years with yours! ENJOY YOUR ALPHA and let me worry about these whinny little crap talking noobs in multiplayer on your behalf. Welcome aboard!! Be brave.

                      Come on, honestly I'm getting tired of all this shit. I've been with xbox and playstation both since the first consoles and I'm just getting irritated at the xbox players for saying the shit about betrayal and cold shoulder treatment bs. If you guys looked pass your god damn greed you will see the good shit you guys got over psn players.. Halo series wasn't even for ps players, cod series [u][b]MONTH[/b][/u] early dlc since dlcs came out. Now that ps players get a small taste of what you guys have been eating for all these years you get mad? What since comes from that? And not to mention we are getting small things and most of it is only [u][b]TIMED[/b][/u] exclusives.. Now sit down xbox players.. It's time to chill on this subject.

                    • A child that is capable of using Google can determine that Destiny will be on 4 platforms, your argument is invalid.

                      • I would refer you to this ^ Guy may seem a little agitated and the monologue is a little dry but there are some valid points. Personally don't like exclusive because I can't afford owning both consoles, but such is life...

                        • The exclusive content should be used to entice PS users. If it came out for free about a month later on Xbox, that'd be fine.

                          people act as if what machine you use is a racial thing something you are born with, theres no "sony guys and xbox guys" its just people using a device; if you want to play something on the other device go buy it. I've owned xboxes, MSX2 before xbox even existed, Ive owned every playstation, bunch of sega consoles and nintendo...and too many PCs. Why do console owners especially xbox users so tunnel vision about sticking to one brand or as if you can only choose one for life. Such a strange mentality and concept to me. I am a person and sometimes I play with my dog, sometimes I play with my 3ds sometimes my PC and sometimes my PS4.. if there was something I really wanted on another device Id buy it or save up and buy it if I didnt have the cash. Anyone who has that kind of emotional investment in a device needs to go detox from technology for a couple months and get their head on straight. This isn't cortana its a box sitting near a screen that you insert creator's content into to enjoy...

                          • Watch_Dogs was advertised the same way for PS4. Call of Duty usually is for Xbox--and in fact Advanced Warfare is getting the timed exclusive stuff too, despite the PS4 being named the default CoD console. EA inexplicably sent Titanfall to Xbox and to PC, ignoring PlayStation completely. This isn't anything new. You'll be playing the very same game on the Xbox that PS4 gamers will, minus whatever PS4-exclusive stuff there will be until a later date. Such is the deal that Bungie and Sony came up with. Evolve is doing the same. AC Unity is doing the same (I've already seen an Xbox-branded commercial for ACU). It's REALLY not that big an issue. It's a smart business move for Sony; Destiny is likely to move consoles for the PlayStation brand. That doesn't mean Xbox gamers will play a Destiny any better or worse than PS4 gamers will. In fact, Bungie held back on the PS4 to make sure the two would offer similar qualities and experiences. Bungie wants to honor its deal with PlayStation, but its behavior has shown that it DOES care about other gamers, and not that it is giving them the cold shoulder. Its behavior is not "abhorrent." If it wanted to give them the cold shoulder, it would have just ripped every bit of potential out of the PS4 without any concern for how it would perform on other consoles. Meanwhile, Insomniac, a third-party independent developer that previously made games only for PlayStation consoles, is making Sunset Overdrive exclusively for Xbox One--not even a multi-platformer with timed exclusive DLC, but a full-on exclusive. They're not abhorrent for doing that. Welcome to business. You have nothing to worry about. You have nothing to complain about. Sorry you're unhappy that daddy's paying more attention to your brother than you at the moment, but that doesn't mean he loves you any less. This is just how things are going to be now. The two consoles are similar and AAA games take forever to make, so it's going to come down to a competition between which console can offer the better experiences in exclusives and in multi-platform games. This isn't the first time we have seen campaigns like this, and it certainly won't be the last. That said, I appreciate your calm, collected attitude. I'm tired of Internet fanboys.

                          • Bungie has to kiss sony's ass for 10 years of being an Xbox exclusive, I am an Xbox gamer and I don't like it, but it makes sense, it's business. I'll wait till the second game to see about complaining.

                            It's just that in the 'beginning' it was just 'pre order for beta' then it turned into 'early access to beta for PS4' then it turned into ALPHA ACCESS for Ps4 then it turned into ALPHA WINNERS GET BUNGIE GEAR and ALL LOYAL XBOX and BUNGIE FANS FOR THE LAST ~7 years FU YOU GET NOTHING. OH yeah, I get to play the 'beta' cause I pre-ordered a YEAR ago and SPENT THE LAST WEEK WATCHING the WHOLE THING on TWITCH fkn great the beta should be fun…
