As others have said, I’m really surprised by the lack of maturity here.

This system war bullshit is borderline retarded.

We’ve waited a year for this game, a week is nothing.

I know, I know...but I have to:

For everyone that is mad at this news, I just have one thing to say.

Have a listen

What 360 exclusives are you talking about? I can only think of Halo and Im not a fan, Im not a Sony fanboy or anything and I dont intend on buying a PS3, Im just curious.

I feel for the Xbox people.

Luckily I'm a sony guy.

I really do not wish to start a console flame war.

With that being said, the exclusives I was talking about are as follows:

- Mass Effect trilogy.
- Fable 2
- The Halo franchise.
- Forza Motorsport 2.
- Exclusive GTA: IV content (whatever that is).
- Splinter Cell 5. (might be on the PC, but confirmed to 360 exclusive).
- Gears Of War.
- Bioshock
- Jade Empire 2
- Star Wars: KOTOR III

Now of course, not everybody are into these games but the majority of 360 gamers. And in a sense, some of these titles are what draws or will draw more gamers to M$ and the360 market.

But the point I was originaly trying to make was that Xbox gamers should just chill. And PS2 gamers should not act as if this a major move made by Sony on M$. People need to develop some maturity because this whole console war really comes down to personal choice.

And just for the record, I own a 360 because I like more the catalouge of games and online features that M$ has to offer over Sony and NOT because I think the PS3 is an inferior machine because, in its own right, it is not.

The Splinter Cell Series has been anounced to now be a Microsoft exclusive after the release of SC: Double Agent as are the following titles:
Oblivion
Mass Effect
Dead or Alive series
Project Gotham Racing
Perfect Dark series
Fable 2
Halo Series
Too Human
Gears of War
Rumble Roses: for all the hentai lovers out there
All of the Future online U.S. versions of any 2D SNK Fighters
Exclusive online versions of all Street Fighter games. Sony has none online
Exclusive online versions of UMK: The KE in MKA in not online
There are too many for me to list but I'm too drunk to continue (Happy hour at El Torito lol!)

Sony has it's hit franchises, so does Microsoft. Whether anyone here chooses to balk at the titles that I listed, that's fine. The fact remains that these titles are fine games that many players missed out on because they were too busy snuggling Sony's left cheek. Had I been a fool and not bought a PS2 in addition to my Xbox, I would have missed out on Sony's great games. Same with the Game Cube. I am shocked and apalled by these system bashing comments.

Anyway, exclusive games have nothing to do with MKA being delayed on the Xbox. I have a feeling that they want to go where the money is at, and have geared their production focus on getting the PS2 version out in full force. It will sell out on both systems, but the PS2 is a cash cow, and a sure fire bet. The Xbox has a large userbase, but most Xbox players are focused on FPS and sports games. I suspect that the retailers were ordering more copies of the PS2 version this time around. Midway will appopriately allocate enough copies of the game to satisfy the expected buyers for the Xbox version and then some, once the PS2 orders have been filled.

Peace

You're acting like Ed Boon just came and shoot you.

You'll get it a week later, a week, beilive me, you wont die.

kingkabal88 said words of wisdom..

its not the fact that is a week or two,its the fact that thje xbox has been screwed too much lately.i own both ps2 and xbox,but i keep the ps2 to play with those japanese only games like dragon ballz etc that will never come to the xbox.for the rest odf the titles that goesfor both cosnoles (like MKA)i buy them for xbox ONLY.the chairman of sony said that the titles for ps2 will ne publisehd for two years after the release of ps3,instead that bithces at Micro$oft want4ed to kill the xbox earlyt only to support ASAP the xbox 360.for Sony,themost important things are honour and quality.for mircrosoft is money

tbh i would rather wait a week 4 the better version
if its backwards compatible with 360 too then thats even more of a bonus
lets face it ps2 is crap and this piece of news is the only thing thats ps2 owners can blag about.......

I'll say that its pretty sucky but NOTHING will make me buy and Sony/Playstation system ... EVER

If they do completely drift from X Box then they lost me as a consumer

LOL!!!!!!

Dang sony fan boys are retarded, what are you bragging about? I surprised you have anything to brag about supporting sony, but thats a whole another story and topic. I can personally wait a week for a better playing graphically enhanced, and possibly x-box360 compatiable version of the game, that will have an awesome online mode, what features does the sony version have? oh they have fanboys, I forgot.

whats the big deal about waiting a whole extra week?? isn't there anything else you could do for those 7 days? nothing at all in the world? just think, it could always be worse, you could live over here in rainy england and wait even longer for the game

Amen

Konqrr: Enough already. We get the point, dude. A large chunk of Mortal Kombat fans got some bad news, and you're delighting in it. We get it. Now can you lay off the schadenfreude, pretty please? All you're doing is making an ass of yourself.

Christ. This "console wars" crap was old 15 years ago. We're talking about gaming systems here, people. Toys. Not the holy land. Not rival gangs. Get some perspective. That goes for everyone in this thread acting like a dumbass, X-Box and PS2 users alike. Surely some of you have to feel at least a little self-conscious about beating your chests over a fucking videogame. Or is your sense of self-worth really that underdeveloped? Can you really not realize how embarrasing you sound?

Sigh... children.

Nice to see someone here has sense.

Its really touching that there are still people like you man. In a positive way of course. Everyone needs to chill out. And Konqrr, you have lost my respect.

On topic: Too bad for the Xbox owners. But think about it, you can still play Halo...

Great news for me!

awww those poor x-box owners

Some people are so mean, i mean i dont really care but there is no need to rub it in their faces, show a bit of empathy.

well all i can say is revenge is sweet!!!!!

Its a good thing I have both Xbox and PS2.

I dont like console wars however X-Box users brag about every little thing that they have that PS2 dont so we fight back with everything we have.

Plus no matter what PS3 will own the 360 so im happy.

I'm ashamed of you lot.


I'm a sad, pathetic, worthless piece of crinkled burnt crisp packet, but I think I've finally found something that makes me look less pathetic in comparison.


Fo' shame and stuff.

lol dont run yourself down mate u cant be as bad as half the morons on here lol

Shut the fuck up.

You know why they delayed it? Because Playstation knows their "ultimate conquest" the PS3 will tank and they're taking it out on us X-Box owners by making us wait another week. Then we'll think "oh, it'd be faster if we just get it for the PS2", which will boost their sales in the cheapest way imaginable. I say FUCK YOU, SONY! I'm not going to buy another PS2 game, a PS3 or PS3 game even if they were GIVEN to me! And that includes any remakes of Final Fantasy VII.

Besides, X-Box 360 and Wii are going to trash PS3 and force Sony out of video games, so suck THAT, ThePowersThatBe!
