Screw just one console, I'd make all consoles able to accept and utilize mods.  So effin stupid that they haven't yet.

i was about to say different one's for all three of them but seeing this and replaying Fallout 3 eariler this year with a ton of Mods i agree i wish Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo would have mod support that give all of their games a billion times more life

These devs/pubs bitch and moan about the costs of development, then kneecap their franchises by not allowing mods, which as you say, adds longer legs than they could ever hope to do on their own.  Will it work for every IP?  Probably not, but for those it does...the sky's the limit.

Don't blame developers or publishers, blame the platform. To mod effectively, you need access to a lot of system resources, which the console manufacturers certainly won't provide. 

A lot of those devs leave their games wide open for mods on PC, because it is much more open than the consoles.
