For companies to only have "limited assets/resources" everytime it comes to PS3 development.....they sure have put out a lot of PS3 games this generation.

I mean, if these companies were so crippled by "limited assets", why would Valkyria Chronicles be exclusive? Why was The Club equal on both platforms? Why is Yakuza 3, Kenzan, and 4 exclusive to PS3? Resonance of Fate? AvP? Alpha Protocol? Hell, the first game they made for this generation of consoles was Virtua Fighter 5, and that was PS3 exclusive at the time of release. If Sega was so broke, and their assets are so limited....why are they even making PS3 games???!!!!

/sarcasm

So what you're saying is that there could never be an alternate reason for an unequal port, that the only reason is that the devs are "lazy"? Money could never have anything to do with it, nor could dev time or time that personnel are available? Do you have a counter argument or are you just "owning" me as Dno said?

i think what he was trying to say is "lazy" is about 80% of the reason. prolly not the full reason but a lot of it. with all those games under segas belt its kind of shocking that they floped this game up.

the other 20% being ps3 is much different to program for.

Thanks for answering my question in a pleasant manner. I guess the biggest question I have is what does "lazy" mean? I just don't get it, I mean if they're putting it on the other machine, what makes it look or play less well? I guess I don't understand the process well enough. I just think that it seems weird that so many publishers would put out something that they can't be proud of. It doesn't make any sense to me. I feel that money has to have something to do with it, it almost always has something to do with anything.

well let me clear that up.

Lazy port on PS3 = did not take the time or money to get to know or learn to use PS3's Tech. HOWEVER companies want to charge full price for it. when this is going up aginst monster action titles like GOW3, DMC4, Dantes inferno, Darksiders, undercharted 2, killzone 2, and other titles that run perfectly why would i think the dev is anything but lazy? in the 1st year of games i understood but now 3-4 years into PS3's life and with games looking better then any other system theres no excuse sorry......

now if not one company or at least most companies fuck up ps3 titles then we can blame it on the hardware but thats not the case... in fact some titles run better on ps3 then xbox....
