"In other news the world's population of crows is nearing extinction."I just have no patience for defending something I didn't say. I didn't say I believed Jez. I said I didn't know, but would love to hear some confirmation. If you just assume I'm some caricature then it's not worth talking.
News - Sonic x Shadow Generations 'Dark Beginnings' Animations will be a PlayStation Exclusive
SEGA has confirmed on its official game page for Sonic X Shadow Generations that the "Dark Beginnings" prologue animation will be exclusive to the PS4 and PS5 editions of the game. Dark Beginnings," an animated feature to be released in promotion of Sonic X Shadow Generations, looks to be...www.neogaf.com
"In other news", at least how I took it, is the obligatory "water is wet" sort of comment. If that wasn't the intention, then I'm sorry, but when you double down on it with "Sony has lied before", it doesn't translate to much but you are giving credit to the folks calling this real. I also have little patience for people being deliberately disingenuous, but I'm at least able to discuss the who/what/why/when.

A knowledgeable source tells IGN that Black Myth: Wukong's delay on Xbox is not due to tech issues, but rather due to an exclusivity deal that neither Game Science nor Sony have publicized.

You're either bad at telling jokes or got caught with your pants down.
Regardless, it's not a major deal, but like I said, I looked at the words you posted, and their subsequent reply, and worked with that. Again, if that's not what you meant, no big deal.

In fairness to you (because you deserve it), I get your skepticism. But really, when looking at the full picture, we're dealing with known liars and a dev who has no reason to lie (and Sony would be screaming about this exclusivity if it existed). Seems pretty clear cut, I'd say. On top of that @HeisenbergFX4 has been pretty clear about this and he's certainly an Xbox fan to believe.
I'm skeptical about pretty much everything when it comes to video games my man. I was saying the exact same stuff as you in the previous thread. None of this makes any sense. Someone is lying, but I just see too much conflicting information at this point. Could Tassi and his source be full of shit? Absolutely.

I don't think Sony paid for exclusivity. I think it's probably that Game Science is focusing on the platforms where they can make the most money first, which is PC and PS5, and they'll get around to an Xbox version when they have time to focus on it.

Yeah the claim is complete BS and doesn't make any logical sense with even a second of thought. Tassi vehemently defended The Acolyte; between that and other odd stuff he should probably be a banned source in these parts.
Tassi, put up some proof or keep Wukong's name out of your mouth!

We're those games announced as coming to playstation and as hyped as wukong?
Then suddenly 2 months before launch it's now not coming due to technical reasons?
Isn't forbes a big media site? How can they get away with lying about this?

But think about it — why hide the exclusivity? Sony doesn't struggle with outing this sort of deal. What's different here?

You got double crow to eat, man.
You're in this thread shooting down any possibility that Sony have done a dirty here. Defending them like fuck and you are completely wrong. Like so wrong.
There has been a deal, sony are dirty as fuck and we have clear evidence of silent back door deals going down from them.
Fuck them. I'm not buying a pro now. They should have been honest and owned this shit.
Fuck all the stans defending them too. Like you.

The real victim in this exclusive deal is China. Instead of record breaking sales, they could have had big dick gamer engagement.

IGN have corroborated that they did indeed make a deal.

They could have had 80% of the player base on 3 platforms instead of 2.

This is gold! So, I should ignore the dev..... why? You believe Jez .... why? For someone who's "not only all about Xbox", you sure do pop up when it's convenient.
But, seriously, answer those questions with any sort of actual comeback and we can have a proper discussion.

The game runs like shit on the ps5 and looks like shit vs the pc version.
It's not about shouting about it from the rooftops with marketing. It's about kneecapping xbox.

If it's about "kneecapping Xbox", wouldn't a revelation of exclusivity..... help that cause?

How Black Myth: Wukong Developer’s History of Sexism Is Complicating its Journey to the West - IGN
For an indie studio that has only released mobile titles within China, this widespread acclaim over Black Myth: Wukong is a largely unprecedented feat, particularly for a game that has not been released yet. But beneath the luster of this souls-like, Game Science is plagued by claims of sexism.

I own the game on pc. I'm just not down for dirty back door shady shit.
So we honestly don't believe there isn't a final fantasy 7 deal?
What else is sony doing behind the scenes and developers cant talk about it.
Its bullshit.

It's exclusive on ps5 right now. You're point was why are they not marketing it?
Why spend money on marketing it when nvidia is doing it for you and you've paid so a platform doesn't have the game.
Market for who? What's rhe point in spending the marketing money when you've spent it on removing the xbox version like 2 months before launch.
Fucking dirty, man.
Really, really shady

A game of this magnitude was never an issue for them to market in the past. Now, all of a sudden, they're letting the fact that's only on PS5 do the talking when they never have this issue? It's going to take more than the "trust me bros" for this to make any sense.
You also said there was clear evidence of the silent back door hand offs. What is this evidence?

You mean the game that has had the window of eclusivity on its trailers ?Everybody knows that there are or were(can''t remember the dates) an exclusivity period, but not every game that is timed exclusive is linked to a deal....
And in this case we have extas1s and the dev saying one thing and paul tassi and jez another but thinking just for a little bit why wouldn't sony advertise its exclusivity?

Cool when Ms goes around buying up everything they can though? I'm sure you were fine with them spending 50 million on tomb raider last gen.

That doesn't matter at all to ideological journalist.
I'm not saying this is definitively not true, I'm just saying IGN isn't the best source when it come to this game specifically.

Yeah sure thing buddy, you are clearly delusional, 3 different sources have now confirmed it was a deal made by Sony, take your head out of your ass and wake up.Eh, I was going to reply, but you never have anything to actual discuss.

Legit sources? Where?
And, if it's delusional to take the devs at their word, coolbeans. I'll await those legit sources and your explanation of why that's in the land of delusion.

Passi woke up and chose violence today.
IGN entered the chat to hand out brass knuckles.
Fair enough.
Game Science can come out and deny this and quash it within minutes.
The Phantom Blade Zero devs did that within a few hours of that games fake exclusivity rumors.
