I am pretty sure the reason why they are not developping games on the PS3 is more than just because it's complicated...
They can't expect people to believe that in 2009. |
It's really not that hard to believe for most with the exception of a few very vocal Sony "loyalist"
|
What? I think you are avoiding the subject. I looked at your previous posts and it seems you have a problem with PS3 owners anyway. So you really think the reason why Vavle is not developping games for the PS3 is because it's «too complicated»...
|
How am I avoiding the subject? LOL Have you read my posts pertaining to the issue? Your conclusions is supported by what?
This company is basically saying the PS3 is not a viable platform for its products because of the complicated architecture and you are doubting that based on what? Sony even insists it intentionally made the PS3 architecture difficult. Are you a Valve employee?
What grounds do you have to discredit somethig being stated by Valve? Who are you again?
And I have no problem with PS3 owners. Maybe you should do more research.
Companies want to make a profit. For Valve, complicated = more expenses. Valve does not want to deal with it...get over it.
|
That's why they are lazy...
You admit they are lazy right? (based on what they said in the article)
|
So because Valve does not want to take on extra expenses to produce products for the PS3 that tranlates to lazy? Please explain how and where did you get that idea based on what I communicated?
I am not sure what you tried to do just now, but I am very well aware of what I intend to communicate. Valve does not want to deal with the increased cost of developing for the PS3. Please, either formulate a better argument or read a book...

You know they would make profit by releasing there games on the PS3, right? It makes you wonder why a company doesn't want more money.

I do not know anything pertaining to circumstances that have not passed yet. Lots of factors and variables go into producing a forecast model that analyzes the risk assessment of taking on new projects. I do not work at Valve, and there is no way for me to answer your question. Just as you do not work at Valve, so there is no way for you to know the answer to that question.
Business models are not as black and white as you seem to imply. What I can tell you is that whatever analysis Valve has done, it has determined that creating games for the PS3 platform is not viable financially. Valve does not want to take on the risk. It's really that simple.
|
Well then read my first post where I said that the reason why they are not developping games on the PS3 is more than just because it's complicated...you said it yourself.
And just so that you know...I don't really care for a PS3 version of there games since I already own L4D and CS on PC

Well, if you are not implying that
1) Valve is lazy or 2) It was given some incentive by Microsoft then I apologize.
