Forums - Sony Discussion - Sony: PS3 Better Serves Publishers Than 360

fighter said:
Sony has said so many things this gen i just can't help lolling at this.


Never has a platform been threatened by publishers (Activision and Valve mainly) or lost so many exclusivities as the PS3.

threatened: true

 

lost exclusives: you have to have them to lose them. X360 is also losing some exclusives, but seeing how it didn't have many to begin with (compared to the ps)

It will probably be more significant if they show more games in te next generation.

Sony its really doing well lately, they have very good new strategy. Sony make games for players, MS steal games from players and make that the developers shut down other versions and release them just in xbox360, thats not goo for us, MS if you want exclusives and you want to do it right then make your own studios, make your games, dont steal games from us.

i think the word stealing is a bit harsh, but when I see games like Alan Wake being made x360 exclusive after who-knows how many hours and cash went into the PC version (which is primarily a MS platform anyway - what gives?) i might almost consider agreeing with you



Proud Sony Rear Admiral

Saving this article for a few reasons.

A) But we have our own first-party development and exclusives like Final Fantasy XIV and Agent.

Rumors abound of an Xbox version of FF14, and with SE's recent attitude towards the western market and MS in general, it's completely possible. It's also odd to me that he mentions first-party development and 2 3rd-party titles in the same sentence. It's not a big deal, but he should have mention they were 3rd-party.

B)and we're going to catch them and pass them here in the U.S. as well

Seriously? How do people NOT see this as arrogant? He should have just said catch up, that would have shown confidence and yet humility.

C) If you take advantage of what the PS3 can deliver – more content on the Blu-ray disc, better graphics, being able to get more of what the player wants onto the disc – you're going to see those sales translate.

The "more content" usually means more cutscenes (not gameplay). Better graphics, maybe, it's kind of subjective, but we'll see with this year's releases probably. Last I checked, these are secondary to the things gamers really want, good entertainment, which for most means a fun and/or enriched and/or emotional/deep gaming experience. Wii software sales show this (especially the fun part).

D) If you walk into a Wal-mart or Target, so many of the titles are behind glass, and if you're the consumer you might strain your eyes trying to pick which game you want.

Wtf? I guess consumers are some kind of inferior humans that can't see 2 feet in front of them through a glass cabinet. Patronizing, arrogant, and misinformed.

Developers perfer Ps3 ... I LOLED so HARD !

Nice to see Sony going down in flames ! Maybe Next Gen they will learn the lesson and dont rip off consumers ... Next Rip off = Arc or Wii Like ...



so true :

Xbox360 owners = shooters lovers ...



Time to Work !

His comments are also a very hypocritical, considering that Zipper was BOUGHT by Sony, not homegrown, and Heavy Rain's developer, Quantic Dream is a 3rd party studios...how stupid is that? M$'s strategy could have been to buy Bioware and Pandemic, and Buy Take 2, and buy Epic, etc etc etc...but they instead choose to buy titles, and people want to knock them for it....that's complete spin spin spin, but then again, this clown is trying to get us to see how PS3, WHICH cost more to develop for, provided better ROI for 3rd party...lol...clownish!

how much more does it cost to develop ? you have datas ? or it is just a free claim ?

Let's wait, very soon, EA will port ME2 to PS3 and you will eat your crow ...

What matter, here, is that outside shooters, multiplateform games sell better on PS3 than on 360

Time to Work !

PS3 is doing a great job about PS3 and PSN becomming a great platform, now is impossiblem to test and try all demos plublished ... sooo much content everyweek!!! :)



PSN: franco-br
MGS4, GH, MW2, GT5p, WipeoutHD, etc..etc..

Sony is building first party exclusives while MSFT is paying. Man if Sony ends up in 1st next gen that is really going to bite MSFT in the ass.
