Shouldn't let publisher deals for exclusive content sway you when flat-out exclusive games don't have you decrying the companies.


Exclusive games are often better than they otherwise would be. They only have to worry about one platform, and can often take more advantage of the hardware since they don't have to write general code.

One of my biggest fears for Rise of the Tomb Raider being exclusive to Xbox for a year was that they would have to make sacrifices to optimize it for Xbox (this was before they killed Kinect completely, I think). Fortunately when it came over to PlayStation it had an option to improve the game's framerate and graphics, but I still felt like something didn't get to make it into the game...

Exclusive pieces of content like this have no upside for players.

Well, we never did get ornaments for Jade Rabbit, which is basically a perfect canvas for cool designs...
