Most of the games designed for next gen consoles won't have a prayer of running on this gen devices. They're building these titles on the new dev kits, not on 360/PS3 dev kits. All the new IP will be next gen exclusive--if they aren't, then those games will look like crap compared to games from other publishers. How will Activision looks if EA's games are far and away superior, or vice versa? We might see some games in development now do as you're suggesting, but no one wants to be left behind in quality. If we have a Battlefield in 2014 that absolutely and completely blows away CoD, how is that going to look? Or the same for any major franchise out there? I can't see that kind of situation lasting more than a year, and that's only with smaller developers and big franchises. New IP are going to be next gen exclusives. |
Ah yes that reminds me of being able to do 64 (or more) players for Battlefield games.
Likewise racing simulators with more than 20 AI controlled cars etc.
