I thought devs started working on games around the same time, but since they were having so many problems getting the games done, Sony had to push the launch of the PS3 back? That is what I remember....could be wrong? Year head start or not, it comes as no to surprise to me the PS3 version was the reason I am not playing GTA IV right now!! |
They were still finalizing the ps3's specs well udner a year before launch (final clock speed of Cell, disabling one SPU, etc.). Finalized ps3 devkits did not arrive until August of '06, just three months before launch, much like final 360 dev kits didn't arrive until August of '05, just three months before launch. Studios have had final 360 dev kits a whole year longer than ps3 dev kits.
