It may be the hardest out of the Current 3. But the problem is some dev's make it seem like they are better off cutting off their left arm and right testicle than dev for the ps3....

 

Because M$ spoiled them in the developing tools area, back to the PS1 days devs praised it and bitched about the Saturn, with good reasons because that was a really phreaking hard system to develop (quadrilaterals instead of triangles, almost no library, few documentation, pain in the ass memory access with 2 chips, etc.), now they complain about a system that uses versions of C and Open GL with a good documentation, libraries and devs like Insomniac sharing info about the Cell???

 

Yes they did one thing MS is good at is Developer support but you cant blame MS for that, from what I have read Sony is doing a much better job on debveloper support because MS is so good at it

No, i don't blame them, in fact i like .NET and directx and the support they give, and thanks to them Sony is giving better support... My problem is with some mediocre developers that bitched too much about the PS3 difficulty so everyone started to believe it... When i found out that they were using C and Open GL, and saw some Insomniac presentations about programming for the Cell's PPU and SPUs my first thought was "WTF are these people talking about", and later i saw some work done for the Cell, and it was not that different than programming for multi-core... My problem is not with M$, is with the developers that did something for the 360 and didn't give the PS3 a chance before starting to bitch about them...
