Crikey working on 6 versions of the same game must be an absolute nightmare... It's going to take a bit to get their tools/software to take advantage of the PS4/XboxOne setups. 1st party will be where its at initially. |
Oh man, I edited my post before you quoted it...
Anyway, I partially agree with you.
Fundamentally yes, first party studios will be the main differentiatiors, but that will not be visible until later this next gen. All because of assymetrical strategies. Xbox investing massivelly while Sony cutting costs on development. Digital Foundry already made a launch comparison based on E3 demos from the actual consoles (not PCs), overall in X1's favor.
And regarding multiplatforms yes I fully agree with you. The differences should take at least a year. And personnally they might never happen if X1 becomes the lead platform again considering it seems to have the more efficient development environment again.
