And don't forget the $500 million dollar bribe.

Oh get over yourself. Its not a bribe. It's paying for the exclusive rights to Warner Bros. Just like Microsoft pays companies for exclusive game titles. Sure they don't pay $500 million, but movies are a bigger market and there are more movies produced than there are video games.

I'm sorry, but the blind ignorant hatred of Sony for regular business reasons is just obscene (and no I'm not saying that people hating Sony for the “exclusive” timeframe being announced this late in the game is ridiculous).

Doctor Venkman - your theories are the worst form of popular tripe, your methods are sloppy and your conclusions are highly questionable.

Seriously though, people are just angry on here for Sony delaying the non-PlayStation versions of the game. You are right, though, that it is just business Sony doing what they did with Blu-Ray, and you can't really blame them. However the point is I don't have to buy the format just because it “won”. If you look at my first post on here again I said I won't be buying Ghostbusters on Blu-Ray because of what they're doing with the Ghostbusters game - I was considering buying a Blu-Ray player before today.

You can do so much in business to get ahead - but if you go to far, you anger your consumers and it's all over. Then they'll even hate you again for things they've forgiven you for in the past.

We're bigger than the movie industry now.

This sucks balls…

I was looking forward to playing Ghostbusters in June as we reward after my exams and a guy like me who has all his money tied up with his uni course, books,student loan repayments and rent i can't even begin to think about buying a PS3…. If i had the money i would but i don't, so this is shit perhaps if they had done this EARLIER!!, away back in october when i bought my new 360 i would have got the ps3 but man this is soo annoying. :-(

Guess I'll just have to wait, thanks sony… fuckers.

my point of view is similar to any First Person Shooter.

I can see my hands and arms doing stuff. I can look down at my feet, but I can't see my face.
