Multiplat games actrually bring in more money not less and these days ifs far worth doing multiplats then exclusives based on Console similarities. |
So Kojima did get fired because the game costed too much, but the fact that it went multiplatform, where each version has been extremely polished had nothing to do with the production cost raising?
So in other words Kojima to keep his job just had to do like some developers do: make the best version on the lead platform and bring a crappy port on the others. Like WB did with the PC version of Batman AK to save money indeed.
