How do you think us PS3 owners feel that we have to get half assed games because of the size limitations of the DVD9 in the 360. It sucks playing a game like GTA4 with only 30 hours of stuff in it knowing that it could have been 3 times longer if they would have made it PS3 only |
Funny that you used GTAIV as an example. By all accounts, Rockstar and Take Two were in MAJOR financial strife before Microsoft fronted them the $50 million DLC loan. Not the least of reasons was the sheer cost of developing such a huge game for PS3.
Indeed, the loan allowed them to develop more material and make a better game. Without it they may well have been forced to release a half done game just to keep afloat.
The costs the PS3 brings to the gaming business inhibit development long before DVD9 does in the majority of cases.
starcraft - Playing Games = FUN, Talking about Games = SERIOUS
