Ubisoft On Splinter Cell Exclusivity (Again)

Ubisoft has spoken out once again about the decision to make Splinter Cell: Conviction an Xbox 360-exclusive title. 

Last month the publisher explained the decision saying "Splinter Cell games are historically linked with Microsoft platforms."

Now it seems the decision was "purely business" according to Steven Masters, lead designer of Conviction.

"Ubisoft as a company now has a lot of experience with PS3. Our processes, tools, techniques are very well-developed - we could absolutely execute on the PS3 if we had the opportunity, but like I said it was a business decision," he told Kikizo.

Splinter Cell Conviction comes to Xbox 360 and PC later this year. For more details check out our E3 video interview here.
