Cause it keeps the kids happy and consoles in general are more popular these days, not to mention Money talks, just ask EA about thier deal with Man Shitty and FIFA12 :/
Well yea but I think there’s more to it or else we’d see xbox users getting stuff as well. Ps3 owners were offered some sort of preorder bundle that included free access to bf1943, which was later withdrawn. Ea were threatened with a class action suit and had to back track and declare they would still get it. Why this concerns ps3 and not xbox may be because the ps3 platform is perceived as being rubbish for fps titles and ea have to dig deep into their box of carrots to attract buyers or maybe there’s more to it behind the scenes when negotiating with sony, but I would be surprised if it had anything to do with the screw pc owners in favour of consoles carry on.
It was a deal that sony struck up with ea. Same as xbox have one with activision for cod content earlier than everyone else. They just pay the devs money to get the new content earlier. Unless it was a one off deal just for karky then all other new bf3 content will be out a week or more earlier on the ps3 to.
Incidently, enterbf3.com were reporting today that EA’s CFO have announced the release of karkand on 6th december for ps3, and so it’ll be the 13th for us based on that.
