I know EA has been pretty snuggly with Microsoft lately so thats probably where the "promised exclusives" thing may become a reality. Maybe not the sports franchises but BF4 and maybe something new on the side just to show support or maybe a timed launch exclusivity to help sweeten the pot along with whatever Kinect bs gets pushed to make some people flip and give in to whatever Microsoft has cooking in case the rumors do prove true.
Problem is CoD still holds weight when it comes to console shooters and as long as both consoles get the game I hope the promise of exclusive map dlc isn't enough for some people here to sign their rights as gamers away. I don't want the rumors to be true, but I Microsoft isn't helping not turning the heat down on these stories. Every week of bad publicity vs. Sony getting more favorable in the media, gamers, and devs eyes is not helping them out besides the one or two guys you see on a forum saying fuck it they'll go nextbox regardless. Maybe this is all a ruse just to make what they show all the more special but atm they are leaving a bad taste in a lot of peoples mouths and driving discussion in a very negative space.
