| shio said: I really don't understand why Sony made a deal with Quantic Dream. QD just develops adventures, a genre practically nonexistent except on PC and DS, and they only made 2 games (both not million-sellers). Maybe Sony is trying to get Quantic Dream's motion capture tech, but if that was the case then why not go for Crytek's Cry Engine 2 instead? |
I'm gonna be dumb and say arthouse cred. Like Disney with Mirimax or Fox with Searchlight. They might want to have alternative games under their mantle not necessarily to make sales, but to cater to the smaller portion of the market that enjoys that type of stuff. By having devs like Team ICO under them and Quantic Dream signing exclusives, they boost their cred: "see? it's not all KZ2 and 3rd person shooters." But what do I know? I can't wait for this game, Indigo Prophecy was one of my favorite games ever.
