A little too many delays, don't ya think?

I do not blame the original poster for his naivety after all he has probably never worked a true job in his life. Unfortunately you do not have to be young to lose sight of the fact that it is almost always harder then it looks. The reality is that Sony has increased the pressure on developers. That means it is Sony's fault and Sony's problem. Sony are the ones that need to step up and to front the resources not the developers.

I hate to see posters rag on the developers when it isn't their fault. Many of them have done a superb job in spite of Sony's incompetence, arrogance, and ignorance. Sony did a piss poor job of getting the developers what they needed, and more importantly making it profitable for developers. Instead most developers had to spend precious man hours retraining employees in another new technology, had to work from scratch on their own game engines, and then after they ate this horrendous cost. Sony had terribly misjudged the marketplace. So the developer is looking at eating a huge loss.

When it comes to delays your problem is really a problem with Sony doing a poor job. Not the developers especially the ones that did not cut and run on you. You should be damned grateful that the likes of Konami and Square haven't left the console high and dry or changed colors entirely given how the console has performed, and more importantly how upset they have been with the way Sony has done things. With all these problems they stood by you, and for that you have nothing to complain about from them.

The problem isn't with the developers. The problem is with Sony. The developers need more help and Sony is not coming through.
