Tekken 6 to become multiplatform?

[Timstuff]

Assassin's Creed
Mercenaries 2
Unreal Tournament 3
Devil May Cry 4
Virtua Fighter 5
Ace Combat 6 (ended up being exclusive to boot)

I promise that Haze goes multiplatform as well.

Ace Combat 6 is not actually exclusive, it just hasn't been announced for PS3 yet. As for the rest, there weren't months of loud-mouthed rumors leading up to them going multiplatform. All of those came right out of the blue, so the statement that "most rumors about PS3 losing exclusives turn out to be true." is utterly false. The true statement would be "when PS3 loses an exclusive, it usually happens all of a sudden without warning."

BTW GFreeman, you just proved why you can't go making blanket statements without looking up the data first. DMCIV, Assassin's Creed, and Virtua Fighter 5 are NOT Xbox exclusive, they are multiplatform. In fact, Virtua Fighter 5 has been out on PS3 for several months, so I don't know where you're getting your information from. Same goes for your claim that there were rumors leading up the the announcements of 360 versions. If you want to discuss touchy topics like console wars, don't walk in and just say stuff that you haven't even checked for yourself.

Shows how much you know.

So because I don't feel like compiling a long grocery list of games that have jumped ship, I can't make a statement based on my observation that usually big PS3 exclusives have these rumors circulating before they actually jump ship? Haha, right. DMCIV, Assassin's Creed, Virtua Fighter 5, I think that Fatal Inertia game actually went from PS3 exclusive to Xbox 360 exclusive, just off the top of my head. Pretending that this hasn't been happening since the announcement of the first PS3 game way back when just because someone doesn't want to waste too much time arguing with you about it is pretty stupid

Actually, Assassin's Creed was never Playstation 3 exclusive. Sony had the chance for it to be exclusive, but they blew it. When development started it was a multiplatform game from the get go and when it was announced it was running on Xbox 360 hardware.

Fatal Inertia is not an Xbox 360 exclusive, the Playstation 3 version will be released next year.

Unreal Tournament 3 and Mercenaries 2 were never a Playstation 3 exclusives either, anyone who thinks or thought so is a tard.

And before anyone says Grand Theft Auto IV, that game was never exclusive either.

The only exclusives that technically jumped ship are Virtua Fighter 5, Devil May Cry 4, Beautiful Katamari, and Ace Combat 6

Who said they were exclusive you moron? That was the point. They were originally thought to be PS3 exclusives, and ended up being multiplatform. Are you being dense on purpose?

Don't give me that ****. If Assassin's Creed was "never" a PS3 exclusive, then no game that has EVER jumped ship has been an exclusive. You can't look at a game that wound up moving to another system and just pretend that it wasn't originally an exclusive. The game was shown for and only announced for the PS3 for a long time, Ubi Soft even went so far as to ban people on their message boards who mentioned the possibility of a 360 version. It was thought to be a PS3 exclusives, rumors circulated that it would jump, people like yourself complained that it wouldn't happen (a lot like MGS4 actually), and then it happened and now you people are trying to back peddle and rewrite history so you can pretend that it was never exclusive in the first place. Ridiculous.

That seems to be the only defense that I'm seeing. If it jumped ship at a later date, then it was retroactively never an exclusive to begin with, and so no exclusive has ever been lost. It's hard to believe that there are people out there who seriously believe crap like this.

Actually I said that Assassin's Creed would very likely go on the Xbox 360, especially since IT WAS RUNNING ON FREAKING XBOX 360 HARDWARE WHEN IT WAS ANNOUNCED!!!

When a game is developed as a multiplatform game from the get go, like Assassin's Creed, that means it was a multiplatform game right from the start. Yes, it was announced for the Playstation 3 first. Yes, Ubi Soft declined to comment on an Xbox 360 version and even banned people about the Xbox 360 version. But it wasn't exclusive. You can't lose what you never had, even if you had the chance to take it.

Devil May Cry 4 was a Playstation 3 exclusive. Virtua Fighter 5 was a Playstation 3 exclusive. Ace Combat 6 was a Playstation 3 exclusive. Beautiful Katamari was a Playstation 3 exclusive. Fatal Inertia was a Playstation 3 exclusive. Yes, there are a lot of Playstation 3 exclusives that have become multiplatform, but Assassin's Creed was not an exclusive.

Metal Gear Solid 4 on the other hand I still insist will not go on the Xbox 360.

Hippie Hunter, he's not saying that AC was a Ps3 exclusive per say, but that Sony tried to make it look like it was an exclusive (and probably tried to make it so, but failed).
I remember all of this from N4G, they showed AC running on the Xbox360 software....but this was some time after dodgy "Only possible on Ps3" news.
I rememeber well because never have I seen so many hissy fits at the same time..."BUT BUT BUT, THAT 360 IS NOT CONNECTED TO THE TV! IT'S NOT EVEN ON! WAAAAH".

I mean, I even remember people here zooming on pictures to "prove" the 360 was not turned on.
And please don't ignore facts, why would mods at the Ubisoft BAN people that mentioned the 360 version?
Come on, man...

Fact is, Sony wanted this as an exclusive, and failed miserably.
But please don't say that it was always marketed as a multi-platform title, because that's a lie.

I had the SAME argument with some guy a few weeks ago, and he kept asking for links or we wouldn't believe anything....come the **** on. It was everywhere, this was big on N4G and Gamefaqs and IGN, etc, etc.

Edit: Shazam!

Aaaaaaaaaand everyone knows that. Sony was trying to secure the game AFTER the fact.

When a game is developed as a multiplatform game from the get go, like Assassin's Creed, that means it was a multiplatform game right from the start. Yes, it was announced for the Playstation 3 first. Yes, Ubi Soft declined to comment on an Xbox 360 version and even banned people about the Xbox 360 version. But it wasn't exclusive. You can't lose what you never had, even if you had the chance to take it.

Bioshock was under development as a multiplatform title, before MS secured it. Sony tried to do the same with Assassin's Creed.

Devil May Cry 4 was a Playstation 3 exclusive. Virtua Fighter 5 was a Playstation 3 exclusive. Ace Combat 6 was a Playstation 3 exclusive. Beautiful Katamari was a Playstation 3 exclusive. Fatal Inertia was a Playstation 3 exclusive. Yes, there are a lot of Playstation 3 exclusives that have become multiplatform, but Assassin's Creed was not an exclusive.

At a point, it was supposed to be.

The only thing that Sony will be able to reliably hold onto is Final Fantasy and MGS4... MG was built on Sony and FFVII was when FF became "mainstreamish" it's been built on Sony ever since. The creators are bigger Sony junkies than anyone here... probably more than the people running Sony.

Everything else? If MS wants it, I'm not sure a whole lot is going to be able to stop them.

WRONG!

Ubisoft wanted it to look like Assassin's Creed was PS3 exclusive, because they were in negotiations with Sony to make it PS3 exclusive. However, Sony was not interested, so they declined Ubisoft's offer. Don't try to pin the blame on Sony for covering up the 360's version's existance when it was clearly Ubisoft's fault. Ubisoft was hoping Sony would give them big bucks to make AC exclusive, so Ubisoft was making sure to shut up people for talking about the 360 verison until they could get an answer from Sony. And when Sony said no, they went and announced the 360 version. Assassin's Creed was NEVER PS3 exclusive, and no deal was ever made between Ubisoft or Sony.

Link please. No one else aside from you thinks this, so I would like some proof.
