It maybe just the thing like with AC4 where you get like a tresure hunt or a couple of ship battles or two and whatnot

DICE, developing 15+ games?! I'm hoping that's age limit. :P

But no, 15+ games?! Well, guess we all better take a few programming courses in college/university, as it seems DICE will be hiring a lot of people to fully develop 15+ games.

As far as console exclusivity, it's sort of no surprise with Sony, they got the Renegade Squadron and Elite Squadron exclusives. I foresee more crappy PSP spinoffs of Battlefront in the future. Although if they are going to go with PS3/PS4 stuff, then it's Sony's way of saying: "Hey kids, don't play games on a PC, buy a friggin' $500 console to play them!"

Personally, I'm surprised the console companies haven't looked to the internet/computers as the next era of gaming. I'm pretty sure Sony and Microsoft could dominate with some browser/download games and gaming-made computers instead. :)

The mobile market is something they should seriously consider. It's only growing for gaming.

That too. Every year more and more enhancements are made to mobile devices, via processors or graphics cards. Pretty soon, tablets and smartphones will have as much power as a decent computer! To top it off though, Apple's iPad Air is actually as powerful as a desktop computer!

I agree heavily though. If Sony/Microsoft/Nintendo took investments into mobile gaming, it could probably pay off big. Look at how popular KOTOR is on the App Store, and it's just a port! Imagine the excitement if Halo or Uncharted or even Zelda were on the mobile market! :o

When SWBF comes to the app store I'll have renewed faith in mobile games. Right now I'm tired of IAP (in-app purchases), they just get wearing and ruin the game. The games I'm playing on my iDevice are Game Boy Advanced games using an emulator! It's amazing!

But I hope something good comes to the app store that has "Star Wars" on it soon.

You're off by one hundred dollars.
MicroSoft is primarily a software company.

I hate console exclusivivity. Cant we just all get along and provide content for everyone. Dont wanna get screwed over cause have one console and a game i want has exclusive for the other console. Not dropin 500 for the other console. Now that thhe exclusivity is starting to go both ways couldnt they just say its a none factor now and stop? But to much money in it
Peace is a lie, there is only passion          -Fear leads to anger
Through passion, I gain strength              -Anger leads to hate
Through strength, I gain power                -Hate leads to suffering
Through power, I gain victory
Through victory, my chains are broken
The Force shall free me

Nice. I actually found out about it over the amount of screen recording videos on YouTube, and how people were suggesting the use of two different screen recorders on their iDevices. :P

Personally, I'm holding out for GBA4iOS 2.0, or at least until the guys at nds4ios update their app. (The current version from Emu4iOS is extremely slow on iPad...)

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.

Nope. The mobile market is a massive casual market thus making is massive cash source for several game developers. But EA has Pop Cap to make games for the casual market and I'm sure they have plenty of other mobile studios. And DICE is not one of them. They make hardcore games. (Battlefield, Mirror's Edge, etc)  Also developing for those beastly iPad's would only stifle the real console and PC versions. Nope, not going to happen.

Hopes & Dreams = crushed

Also most of those 15 games won't see the light of day I'll bet. A lot of them will most likely get canned in order to focus on the money makers.
