I wonder how the industry would be like without MS's/Sony's payments to third parties. Would they be able to develop the games they're developing, and survive?
A lot of companies making HD games are subsidized by those companies' pockets, of that I'm sure.

Yeah right.Those out of pocket purchases account for a minority of the 3rd party support,that the 360/PS3 receive.Third party developers choose the PS3/360 as their platforms of choice because it's the ideal platforms for their games and audience.Not knocking the wii,but a majority of the third party support will continue to go to the 360/PS3 regardless of how well the wii does.imo |
I agree with this entirely.

Are either of you willing to take a bet about this? Say, use of Avatar/sig for a while, or something else?
Terms of bet if either of you are willing:
I say that the # of Third Party Wii games announced at E3 will be greater than PS3/360 combined (PS3/360 multiplats only get counted once, not twice) (any games that come to Wii in addition to one or both of the PS3/360 games can either not be added to any, or be added to both; it is a net null gain). If either of you two are willing to take that bet, then please tell me what you would like to bet.

Impossible to bet, but if you change the wording to "majority of quality/main titles" then I think you have the point of what he's saying. The Wii is getting more shovelware than the PS2 got. Still, I am tempted to take the bet. I don't think I will, but it's interesting you are so confident that the Wii will get more games.

So you are saying you don't agree with the following phrase:
Not knocking the wii,but a majority of the third party support will continue to go to the 360/PS3 regardless of how well the wii does.imo
That's fine, but I am still willing to let you put your money where your mouth is. Feel free to PM me if you change your mind, I won't be checking this thread anymore most likely.
Please, PLEASE do NOT feed the trolls.
