That's where I stand too. These "regional" twitter/FB accounts I doubt know about deals and stuff.
Isn't that Persona 5? Just seems like these labels are completely wrong.
Yep. Like how Yakuza 0 is labeled console exclusive, but is apparently not coming to PC, according to Atlus. The same for The King of Fighters XIV. And how Romance of the Three Kingdoms is labeled "Only on PlayStation" when it launched simultaneously on PC. And how Persona 5 has no label, but is apparently PlayStation-exclusive.
The labels are a mess.

It clearly says "console exclusive" above Persona and "Playstation exclusive" above crash.
Yes, console exclusive means it is coming to PC.

Doing them at all was a mistake.
It must be exhausting having to create these stickers for different situation across different platforms. Never mind trying to keep them up to date with shifting deals.
People should just do their research or buy a stupid ps4, geeze.
Yep, what y'all should take from this is that you should wait until the game launches on the first system, and then ask if it's coming to other places.

Pretty much. No more golden tickets.Sony owns the Bandicoot brahs. They resurrected him, how do the other two companies get on the ride for free?

I never believed it was going to wind up on
other platforms. This is Naughty Dog's Crash games we're talking about, not the Activision junk that followed. I don't think Sony would allow it.

That's almost as fanboyish as saying that a Kickstarter game that didn't mention a console version in its campaign should never be allowed to port it to consoles.
What Sony wants or not doesn't matter. It's Activision's IP, and Activision's IP.

Companies have pull.
Nintendo doesn't own Goldeneye, yet they pulled strings with UbiSoft to stop the remaster from hitting the Xbox 360.
What.

If Crash was exclusive, Sony and/or Activision would have advertised it like that, and not only they haven't done it, but a PR from Sony said it was exclusive and a few hours later deleted the tweet and said it was coming first to PS4.
It is clear that it is going to come at least to one more platform.

That's not the remaster.

That is a port, not a remaster.
Crash is a remaster made with other assets and a completely new engine.

It is supposed to but we know that it's clearly not the case every time. Yakuza 0 was Only on PlayStation in Eu but in America it was PS4 Console Exclusive and never going to PC.
It is a matter of time.

I think you're confusing remaster with remake. At least in terms of Goldeneye.

console exclusivity for collection of remasters of games that were released two decades will sure have huge ramifications on the console war

What like when PS6 is out? Sure maybe wasaayyyy down the line when Sega wants to cash in on some nostalgia they will.

That was actually by a rep in Ireland. And again, this is a billboard from Australia. I honestly refuse to believe anything until it comes directly from SIE at this point, too many mixed signals.

I dont understand how this game will come to anything but a sony console. These first 3 games were published by sony. Those same games are being remastered for the ps4 but they are still the same games published by sony but with better graphics.
It doesnt mean other crash titles cant come to xbox or pc. But those first 3 gamss ? I dont think so

Can't blame anyone for wanting a ride
FF X X-2 HD arrived a year later to PC and wasn't announced until 3 days before.
A lot can happen in a year.

This has been outright stated by Vicarious Visions.

And nextweek someone will say its just Timed exclusive again.
This is getting almost as bad as the RotTR shit. Someone from Activision or Sony needs to definitively say if its exclusive or just timed.

Hoo boy, here we go again.
I've always thought this was going to be PS4 exclusive. Won't be surprised if that turns out to be true. :v

Sony just made the head of PlayStation Australia redundant after 25 years.
There's every chance this is a mistake.

Multiplatform games can get made after a first party greases the wheels to make it happen.
For example Sony was the one who pushed of Elder Scrolls Online on console when Bethesda didnt want to do it.

If this was exclusive exclusive Sony or Activison would have said so clearly in a press release or a interview. So far at best its a timed exclusive. I wouldn't rule out a late Xbox / Switch maybe announcement for Day 1 release like how the Xbox version of Diablo 3 wasnt announced until the release was close.

Very entertaining this Crash saga has been.
But isn't Sony co-funding Shenmue 3 which is only coming out for PS4 and PC? And what about FF7R?
Nope and nope. They already said they are looking into possibly putting Shenmue 3 on Xbox One in the future, and FF7R has only been announced as "first on Playstation".
By that metric someone should warn Square Enix to remove NiEr from Steam since Sony accidentally called it a "PS4 exclusive" in one of their videos.

It's Persona 5 and it's PS4 console exclusive because other regions are selling it on PS3 when in Australia it's only on PS4 so I guess that's why they put that label on it.
Edit: my local EB had the cases with cover art and back details set up for Crash but I didn't really give it a second look. Next time I'm there I'll check out if it has PS4 exclusive on the front haha.
