For everyone trying to say that PS3 is much harder to develop for...

 

I haven't really heard devs complain in the last year or 2 about PS3 development difficulty.  Is it easier now that devs are more familiar with it?

 

An experiment that needs to be done is getting people that have been living under a rock as far as gaming is concerned (doen't know a thing about 360 and PS3).  Have them play exclusives of each console with a controller  and television that is exactly the same and have them rate which games look the best.

Why just the exclusives? So the PS3 could win? Cause if that's the criteria then obviously the PS3 wins.


There could be a multi plat test also.  The exclusives are usually tailored more to the hardware of the console.  I think most people can agree that PS3 has edge on the technical stuff.  There are very few that try to argue that the 360 is better, technically.

True but I've seen middleware engine games on 360 such as the RAGE engine and the Unreal Engine beat anything that the 360 first party offerings have produced. Also developers have to use Direct X on 360 while with the PS3 they can program to the metal. This is because MS want to ensure backwards compatability with the next console. MS may have to abandon that if they want to go another 5 years.
