Mac version. (Destiny)

In some ways this is worse. Back then they weren't selling a Mac version with less content than an Xbox version. They weren't showering one side with exclusives while taking both side's money. Like someone else said, it might be better to just have the entire game be exclusive. At least that way you'd know that you won't have content cut off or delayed because you made the wrong choice.

You, my good sir, are insane.

If there had been a Mac version of Halo 1 out day and date with the Xbox version that had as much "less content" in it as the Destiny versions for the Xbox do compared to the PS versions, then I would own exactly zero Xboxes.

???

But there wasn't.

Maybe we're misunderstanding each other? I would rather Destiny only be for Playstation and thus avoid all these silly no-access Alphas and time delayed betas than for it to be on both platforms. In the same way I think Halo was better for being just on the Xbox since there was no chance of similar mucking around with gamers.

I simply cannot understand this.

You think it would be better to CUT OUT XBOX PLAYERS COMPLETELY than it is to provide nearly the same game (let's be honest, the timed exclusive content is a tiny fraction of what everyone gets) to both camps?

9 vs 5 days seems like a pretty big difference... but will it, still, in a year? Will you feel behind, somehow, because you missed those four days of playing in July 2014?

I'm not saying for a minute that nobody has the right to gripe, that PlayStation owners seem to be getting the better end of the stick at this point, that there isn't a reason to be put out... i'm saying that the response in this post, that you'd rather that there simply not BE any Xbox versions, so as to avoid the butthurt we've seen today...

I guess I haven't heard a better example of 'cutting off your nose to spite your face' in all the years I've been speaking english. :)
