Joelcool7 said: A major problem with Sony is their over all control over their developers. Sony needs to hand the reigns over to their developers. Go to their studios and say surprise me. Give them adequate funding to make their dream game. Just imagine what David Jaffe could have done with full control of his IP both new and old. Maybe if they had left Naughty Dog to create the Uncharted they had originally envisioned. Sony doesn't give their developers freedom. Nintendo is so successful because their major developers have tons of freedom. Microsoft pushes their developers a lot harder then Nintendo but they focus on establishing IP. |
That seems to me a pretty spectacular misdiagnosis of the situation. Leaving aside the fact that Nintendo has been pretty much mailing it in for a while now, relying on the same old IPs, they also have the reputation of being extremely controlling. It was only a few years ago that Retro saw a mass exodus because Nintendo gave them so little creative leeway. I don't think that's such a bad thing, either, if you look at what too much developer freedom did to Gran Turismo Forever and what it's currently doing to The Last Guardian. But... wow. You got it completely ass backwards there.
