This is another sign that the PS3 has a very difficult, though not impossible, road ahead of it. 3rd party developers jumping ship is never a good sign. Sony is in serious danger of falling into the video game spiral of death here. Some UK tech web magazine has an excellent two-part article about this Part I www.theinquirer.net/default.aspx?article=37771 Part II www.theinquirer.net/default.aspx?article=37773 So Eidos and Majesco are basically gone. They aren't the biggest developers admittedly, I've never played a game from either, but added to the big boys like EA, Capcom, and Konami moving former PS3 resources to the DS, Wii, and 360, Enix leaving with DQ, FFXIII's fate being in question, and only MGS4 remaining as the last major certain 3rd party exclusive (though I firmly believe for simple financial reasons that it will end up on the 360 also) its becoming a crescendo of bad news that cannot just be brushed off and ignored. I remember the days when it was said Nintendo would be perfectly fine without 3rd parties and we see how well that turned out.
