Egalitarian
Lolwhut? |

Full definition on dictionary.com.

I see.
This was the first time in years that I came across an english word that I don't recognise.
So they are saying that PSN is more equal (in terms of equality) than Live?
|
He means that XBL gives preference to certain publishers/developers in getting their content online faster and that the PSN is more fair about it.
Whether that is true or not, I have no idea.
|
It's not, well not exactly. Larger developers have a clear advantage on PSN as Sony charges the developer per MB for consumer downloads (even if they're free) and Sony forces developers to go through product approval and QA individually by region (XBL allows just one submission for worldwide release). PSN also allows game sharing, which some developers really don't like.
From a developer's perspective, XBL is really the better deal.

Unless your game is more than what? 200MB? Then you have to jump through hula hoops just to be considered for a release on XBLA
|
Nope, Microsoft lifted the XBLA ceiling last summer.
|
They've only lifted after complaint after complaint....and big releases. Case in point: SFHD. Hadn't they lifted it...again, they would've gotten a noticeably worse version of that game.
What's gonna happen when an indie wants to make a game that exceeds their limit again? Jump through hoops, or wait for someone like, I dunno, 2K games to make the next big arcade game?
|
Again, there is no limit. Microsoft lifted it last summer before Shadow Complex released. No hoops, no complaints, no limit.
|
I was just gonna say, they still lifted it so XBL is better deal.
