Yup, and like others have said here, if they continue making 1 sony exclusive every year, PS3 fans have lost NOTHING. Only GAINED another game from IG ..

But you know the real reason people are pissed don't you?

Im not surprised really. Most of the effort in producing modern titles portable. Porting costs alone are very small relative to the overall budget of a modern AAA title.

I don't see how people could be upset about them going multiplat, I mean if they have two studios it makes perfect sense to have one studio work like it always has, and the other one works on the multiplat games. Sony does own Resistance and Ratchet and Clank(as far as I know). So I don't see why anyone should be upset if they love those games.

You ever think that maybe other Xbox 360-only owners might be interested in playing those games?

Pretty much!

Don't go around picking fights...

No? It doesn't matter, there was never a chance that was on the cards.

Can't really blame them, means more money for them at the end of the day

are people deff, he quite clearly said that they are still going to support "ratchet and clank" and "Restistance" and they can work with many companies in developing games

idiots

Makes sense. I get the feeling they'd have made this move earlier but were tied in with Sony owning the IP.

I hope the new IP is a good one and they get a warm welcome on 360 as I've always enjoyed their games myself.

Given the current wisdom seems to be develop for PS3 then move the code to 360 they should be well set up for success.

Interesting they have confirmed they will remain committed to PS3 exclusives, too. I guess that means at least Resistance 3 but if their multi-platform title sells well on 360 then surely they'd focus more on being fully multi-platform going forward.

No doubt this will get the expected responses from the overly biased few - from 360 fans gloating to PS3 fans moaning - but it makes sense to me.

One final point, with this plus the fallout from IW / Activision EA are suddenly getting some neat partners, no? And with Bungie going to Activision I'd say MS needs to consider either building up more 1st party or seriously commissioning some more exclusives as it feels like only Nintendo / Sony right now are well set up to deliver a steady stream of exclusives.

Note the last paragraph isn't a knock on MS, just an observation on how much the developer ecosphere has been changing recently.
