What #7 said.

PS3 only owners always get mad at stuff like this, but surely, if the numbers were there and it made sense, wouldn’t companies do the samething things for both systems?

I think szaromir has it closest. It will be a licensing issue of some sort.

What’s the point of timed exclusivity on a game no one plays anymore?

I just automatically assume it’s timed these days. Most of the time that turns out to be the case so it’s hard to go wrong.

I reckon EA can monitor NFS Shift playtime… and I reckon more people are still playing it on the 360.

So maybe it just made more financial sense to limit it to that one platform?
Especially when Sony charges for bandwidth.

Just a random thought – I think there is a PS3-only Ferrari racing game and maybe Ferrari can’t license their cars to other games on PS3 because of that game? Although I think Outrun has Ferrari cars…

Baffled much… So EA doesn’t want to make money now?
