Forums - Sony - Jonathan Blow clarifies PS4 'exclusivity' for The Witness

lol the Microsoft fans are so funny. They can't imagine why a game would be exclusive to a platform without the developer having received money for such a move.

Sounds like the way to do developer relations. Now if only Sony can keep this up with the rest of them.

If only they could do this with Japanese third parties.

By which I mean Platinum Games.



SONY CONSIDERS NINTENDO AS A COMPETITOR?!

Sorry, mind was so blown that I had to caps lock it.

Platimun Games seems to be in Nintendo's pocket already.

Yeah. It might just be the back to back Wii U game announcements, but it does kind of feel that way. And I don't think their appearance on the PS4 Wall of Third Party Support necessarily means that Platinum is working on a PS4 game right now since those lists generally just show people who are registered developers, but I sure hope they are!

They are on the list of companies who are developing for the PS4. Platinum Games are in everybody's pocket that will let them in (which isn't a bad thing at all).

Really? I guess I just didn't notice them on that long ass list.



i really liked what they have shown of it. looks awesome, hope the puzzles are great as well.

Soooo Sony taking a page from MS playbook regarding timed exclusivity. Im sure MS can play this game much better though.


No money involved. Which part you dont understand?

I hope they continue being the best hired guns in gaming. There are so many series I'd like to see them work on: the long rumored (or at least wished for) Kamiya-developed Star Fox... a Contra reboot in the style of Vanquish... God Hand 2... fap!
