..And so should you.

Lately I've gotten to thinking about the future of the gaming landscape and where we are headed in terms of the games available for each system. It seems a little archaic in 2009 with all the advancements in technology to just produce games for either the Wii, Xbox 360, or PS3. I realize that thinking this way calls into question some of my favorite developers (Valve and Bungie to name a couple), but with the quality multiplatform games being released every year, would it really take that much more effort to code the game for another system?

So have I accidently taken a bite out of a cookie laced with cocaine  and am speaking crazy talk, or do I have some valid points? Discuss.

I agree with your sentiments. It does indeed seem absurd to make a game soley for say a 20m install base *cough* NGC/PS3 *cough* rather than trying to capture the ENTIRE market

By opinion is that the only company doing exclusives should be first party or contract. All the third party should be making the game as accesible to as many players as possible. Seriously if Sony didn't make the cheap transistor radio for the masses and just make top tier cabinet radios with high sound qaulity they would certainly not be the company they are today.



Squilliam: On Vgcharts its a commonly accepted practice to twist the bounds of plausibility in order to support your argument or agenda so I think its pretty cool that this gives me the precedent to say whatever I damn well please.
