::::::Thanks for saying that. Sometimes it's hard to get a clear picture of the general opinion on Forums because it's usually teenagers & trolls that post. In this case, however, a large number of XBox owners have chimed in to say that their jimmies have not been rustled by this news, which is quite refreshing{{User:DJenser/sig}} 08:41, 20 November 2013 (EST) | ::::::Thanks for saying that.

:::::::I think it's kinda cool that Sony fans get perks. It's definitely a good marketing strategy to get Sony fans on board the Bungie train. They already have Xbox in the bag, and Bungie's goal IS world domination. Now we just need those Nintendo guys...[[User:Ace2891|Ace2891]] ([[User talk:Ace2891|talk]]) 13:52, 20 November 2013 (EST) | :::::::I think it's kinda cool that Sony fans get perks.

::::::::Yeah, what most people don't realize is that, for the last 10 years, the vast majority of Bungie customers have been XBox owners, thanks to Halo. They needed to break into the Playstation market in a big way, so adding several exclusivity clauses into their distribution contract with Sony was essential to tapping that player base. Although, to be honest, if Microsoft had ''really'' wanted to get a similar deal, they could have negotiated for it. It's not like they don't have the money; they simply chose not to do so. I predict that, if this game takes off like everyone expects it to, then Microsoft will make a push for more perks for the next title release in 2016{{User:DJenser/sig}} 08:53, 21 November 2013 (EST) | |||
