These guys couldn't even make a proper lengthy game for 1 console with the help of Santa Monica, how in the hell are these guys gonna make a proper multiplatform game all on their own?!

Because Santa Monica has been known to hurt incubated developers more than help them. Look at literally every game they co-developed and co-published after the first Fat Princess. They're all plagued with support issues and get mostly crap because SMS does nothing to even try and help like they're supposed to (except possibly raise the game's budget to embezzle it over to their own projects Gearbox style).

 

RAD has a fairly talented studio. Without SMS holding them back they should be able to work their way up the ladder a decent amount. They probably won't actually go multiplat but rather tinker with exclusivity on each side for a while. Think Insomniac. 

Lol, are you seriously trying to put this on SMS now?
