This is why Sony is the best company EVER!!!!

I'm glad to see them doing it, but it's funny that when Microsoft does this, it's derided as moneyhatting.

 

This why you need to donate to my foundation to stop SSMS.

 

 

uh, no......... this is different from "moneyhatting" that MS is famous for.

Moneyhatting is a tool used to steer already multiplat games as exclusive(Ace Combat 6) or gimped on one and not the other(Madden 08). What happened to the days where the big companies woed the developers with gaming prowess rather then benjamins?

This is to encourage new IPs to be exclusive, which is fine on both sides. I never said anything was wrong with that.

moneyhatting creates greed among developers, holding out for who will offer up the most doe instead of having integrity and doing what is best for the GAME!

THis lets small indie developers (Who MS wont bid for) get out their for virtually no cost, from their after making their first game they can support themselves. They can even go MP if they want.
