Haze, the new sci-fi first person shooter from Ubisoft, which was once set as a timed exclusive for the PS3 is now fully exclusive.

Ubisoft confirmed to Gamespot UK that the PS3 version is currently the only one in development, no plans to bring it to any other platforms at a later date.

Today, Ubisoft said that currently no other versions in development, and although it was still leaving the door open in the future for “new partnerships,” currently the game is indeed only planned for the PS3. A spokesperson said, “The official statement on PC and Xbox 360 is that these platforms are not confirmed.”

The Web sites of Free Radical, the Official Haze site, and Ubisoft site, all now only list the PS3 version of the game.

All of the trailers for this game have looked pretty good. I’m not a big FPS fan, but I’ll give it a look and see how it goes.

LA Noire, the upcoming Rockstar franchise that’s set to to take the world by storm, is now coming exclusively to the PS3. This comes in a press release filed by parent company Take Two yesterday (the same press release that let out the GTA4 delay).

Take Two describes the games as:

“[a] ground-breaking next generation crime thriller. L.A Noire is an interactive detective story set during the classic late 1940’s noir period in a perfectly recreated Los Angeles before freeways, with a post-war backdrop of corruption, drugs and jazz. L.A. Noire will truly blend cinema and gaming with action, detection and complex storytelling that will draw players into an open-ended challenge to solve a series of gruesome murders.”

Sounds like a winner to me. Something to note, this is NOT the new exclusive franchise that Jack Tretton talked about for the PS3. Sony has confirmed a few times this is the fact. I guess we’ll have to wait and see what that new franchise will be.

At E3, Game Head got a chance to talk to Jack Tretton about losing GTA4 as a PlayStation exclusive. In the interview, Jack revealed that Rockstar would be developing a new, exclusive franchise for the PS3 after Grand Theft Auto 4. Some are speculating this will be LA Noire, but Jack somewhat shot that down.

I guess we’ll have to wait and see what comes of this new exclusive franchise. I hope it’s not more ping pong.

Sorry Xbox 360 fanboys, Metal Gear Solid 4 is still a PS3 exclusive title. It was rumored that Microsoft would drop a bomb on the gaming community during it’s E3 press event stating that MGS4 would be multi-platform, but alas, nothing was mentioned.

A source from Hideo Kojima’s camp told CVG:

“[Kazumi] Kitaue is constantly trying to force Kojima to drop the game’s PS3 exclusivity, which Hideo refuses point blank to do. Trust me MGS4 will be a PS3 exclusive for for months at least.”

Good for you Kojima. You have to love developers that stick to their guns (no pun intended).

Take that Microsoft. Sony Computer Entertainment America President, Jack Tretton (that’s a lot of capitalized words), took a stab at Microsoft in the latest issue of PSM magazine.

“We have a very different approach to exclusives than some of our competitors. We don’t buy exclusivity. We don’t fund development. We don’t, for lack of a better term, bribe somebody to only do a game on our platform. We earn it…”

Ouch. We’ve all read the reports, so it’s not that far off the truth either. We know Microsoft paid $50 million to get exclusive GTA4 episodic content. I have to say, I do agree with Jack Tretton here. Don’t just throw cash around to get your way. While saying that, Sony needs to do a LOT more to “earn” some games for the PS3.

Hit the jump for more…

The PS3 isn’t the only console losing it’s beloved exclusive third party games. Now the Xbox 360 has joined the party.

The once 360 and PC only titles from SCi, Kane & Lynch and Crossfire will now see their way onto the PS3. Both games looked pretty good with their initial trailers from earlier this year.

Things are looking up for Sony. I would venture to say the era of third party exclusives is over. It’s just too expensive now for third parties to develop just for one platform.

Rumors have been flying out exclusive titles since the next-gen started. Most have proven to be true.

Today’s big beef is that Final Fantasy XIII will be coming to multiple consoles. PS3 Center reports that Motomu Toriyama of Square Enix has confirmed that, along with the PS3, other consoles will see FFXIII. There’s no sources sited in the article, so I’m skeptical of the statement.

We all know there will be multiple games in the FFXIII series, with multiple storylines announced. Does this mean we’ll see the main FFXIII game on the Xbox 360 of Wii? I personally doubt it. Square Enix has been so loyal to the PlayStation for years. I can see a few of the side games coming to other consoles, but not the main FFXIII game.

What does everyone think? Let us know in the comments.

All I can say is this is one of the main reason I wanted a Wii, this game looks crazy and if it is even half as good as the GC or 64 version, good times will ensue. Here is the clip:

You can see the usual suspects: Mario, Wario, Zero Suit Samus, Kirby, Link, Snake, Star Fox, and also see Pit (Kid Icarus), I look forward to using the winged bad ass.
