E3: Modern Warfare 2 DLC 360 exclusive News
Xbox 360 News by Robert Purchese
Microsoft announced during its E3 conference that the first two map packs for Modern Warfare 2 will be timed exclusives on Xbox 360.
Xbox bigwig John Schappert let fly the news after a gameplay demonstration of Modern Warfare 2, which saw the player traverse an icy cliff, stalk up to a building, strangle people and then runaway from a building amidst gunfire. It was tense and very impressive.
Epic big-shot Mark Rein, who was sat next to Ellie during the conference, whispered to her that the trailer was "insanely good".
Modern Warfare 2 is due out for PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 on 10th November.

Some PS3 owners being very sore about this, timed exclusivity mean it will expire and eventually appears on PS3 format, and hey Ghostbusters in Europe being PS3 exclusive is another point!
Each platform holder will try to seek any advantages, and that wont changes, the more MS 'snatches' exclusives the same Sony will eventually tries to do and so on! DLC and timed exclusives is in a way better than outright exclusive, as a X360 owner had said he loved MSG and want dying to see the fourth iteration on X360... wont happen! Multi-platform IS the way to go if you wanna call yourself a serious gamer who craves games and farts in the direction of loyalty to the platform! |

GamesConnoisseur, i'm wholly against exclusive dlc, timed or otherwise. why should existing users suffer because these big conglomerates fight it out for sales. i'm against exclusives as it is but this limiting the content of users because of their preference in gaming device is a dubious business as far as i'm concerned.

Microsoft can suck up my huge fucking balls!!! What a disgrace!! Doing what they always do, saving their little pony asses by bribing their way out of everything instead of spending the money in making a new IP for their Xbox or improving the reliability and functionality of all their products!!
That is the same lame business plan that led the likes of GM, Chrysler to where they currently find themselves!! At the bottom and bankrupted!!! I will have my champagne ready for when the same happens to Microsoft! I cheers to that!! In addition, Activision, JUST WOW!! What a pity... do they really need to do this??? |

Disappointing.
Is there anything Microsoft won't throw loads of cash at just to piss off the customers of their competition? The sooner they realise that this sort of practice just gives them a bad name with gamers of any console preference (fanboys who revel in this kind of stuff aside), the better. |

Would have been better to get the full game as an exclusive, but anything that helps to squeeze Sony out of the games market has to be a good thing.

Oh leave him be! Don't you know he is insane? :?) /waits /thinks On second thought, screw that! Go for the jugular :) farty is the single most deluded 360 fanboy I've seen across the entire Net. He thinks MS are his parents and have his well-being at heart.

As I've said many many times before, I'm not an MS fanboy and I don't want a monopoly, I'd just like for Sony to retire and let another competetor or two (as Nintendo are no longer in the same market) bring some fresh new ideas to the console market instead of Sony's stale outdated ideas.

farty says "I'm not an MS fanboy" There! See! He is just a poor unbiased completely neutral soul who just states the facts as he sees them! Go easy on him from now on :) |

Meh, PC users will get the DLC later for free. Sure Modern Warfare 2 will sell the most on the Xbox 360 and PS3 but the PC users are the happiest Call of Duty players around.
