:::So I've heard. Having the beta on PlayStation platforms first won't convince me to buy one, though. I have a strong preference towards Xbox.--{{User:Spartacus/Sig}} 12:24, 17 November 2013 (EST)

::::What puzzles me is that Sony got this exclusivity as a result of distribution and marketing negotiations with Activision. Microsoft could have easily received similar concessions had they chosen to negotiate as Sony had, which they did not. And yet, according to the forums, '''''Bungie''''' is out to screw over XBox owners everywhere... I'm shocked at how many people out there seem to think that either Bungie or Activision would deliberately limit their potential income by alienating half of their player base... Negotiations are after all a 2-way street &, in this case, Microsoft simply didn't push for all of the things that Sony did. I would have thought that was obvious but, apparently, I'm a hopeless optimist{{User:DJenser/sig}} 10:02, 18 November 2013 (EST)

:::::I don't see why Bungie would want to "screw over" Xbox owners. They don't want to alienate and insult half of their fanbase. It certainly would not be a good choice.--{{User:Spartacus/Sig}} 00:21, 19 November 2013 (EST)
