This entire post is ridiculous.

They just spent money and man hours a few months ago porting NBA 2k15 to the PC. There is absolutely no financial, creative, sensical, logical, or non time-wasting reason to make 2k16 a PS4 exclusive.

They would lose 1/2 of their market to NBA Live or XBOX would lose their basketball gaming market to playstation.

The only company to benefit would be playstation. 2K would lose money and customers, Steam would lose money, and Microsoft would lose money.

So the short answer is, No. You're wrong 2k16 will not be a PS4 exclusive.

They aren't holding off the cover athlete , they show the player the night of the finals

This would be a huge surprise to me for this to happen. If it were to, I could certainly see ps4 being the choice for exclusivity though.

Something that hasn't really been touched on is the VC aspect. 2K makes way too much revenue off in game currency purchases. And that's somewhat difficult to track down to the exact dollar. While Sony could come in and say we'll buy this share at $x, there's no way to pin point a number that's constantly changing.

It will never be console exclusive. The Xbox and PC loss and the fact that Sony wouldn't be able to make a hard offer would make the transaction very difficult.

Yup, they're allowing people to pre-order 2k16 on Xbox One and the 360 for a few weeks, then at E3 they're going to laugh and say "Jk guys. This is a PlayStation exclusive. Sorry!"

Come on, man. The covers might not be the real deal or the final product, but 2k16 is NOT going to be a Sony exclusive.

Instead of a safety net waiting down below there will just be angry customers quick to move out of the way and talk of their failure.
