| Parokki said: I didn't believe it when the opposite was claimed, and I don't believe this now. Developers always make it sound like their game couldn't be made on the other systems, so people will buy the system they're developing for, and thus increase the amount of potential buyers. Oldest trick in the book, especially for consoles that are competing for the biggest horsepowers. That being said, a serious amount of developers complaining about how hard the Cell is to program for doesn't just mean the developers are lazy. Probably that too, but it also gives serious cause to suspect the Cell is just plain badly designed. That's one of the challenges in making a console, making sure it's easy to use and provide proper tools for your developers. Of course I suppose it also means the games of the really awesome developers that can afford to take their time and have loads of talented staff will be even more awesome in comparison. =P |
Oh I forgot you :P
what would be the point of doing that it's not like they have stocks at MS or Sony.... they don't care on which system it's sold.... hell they don't even care if the game sale... the Dev studios do the product manager does.... but the Dev in his office doesn't really give a damn.... he is in his office getting payed anyway just to finish the game in time for release on what ever platform he was told to do it....
