Who cares? its just a game, why does it matter how much sony paid for it

That is Sony's faults, not the developers. Sony has the responsibility to ensure that developers have the proper tools, knowledge, and support system to complete their project in a timely manner. Some of the most skilled developers (Insomniac, for example) will succeed no matter what but you can't expect every developer to achieve that kind of quality (plus, I'm pretty sure Insomniac has a direct hotline to Sony, something most third party devs don't enjoy).
I'm really sick of the "lazy/stupid developer" argument. At the end of the day it's you, the consumer, that suffers for it. Put the blame where it belongs and that's directly in Sony's lap. They're the ones who designed the architecture, provide the tools, and support the developers. If they do a bad job of that, developers fail. And it sucks for PS3 owners who, for some reason, still hold up the Sony flag and blame the developers for a difficult system. Sad, really.

MS does money hatting wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy more than sony does,,,so why haven't you made a single thread about MS exclusives/timed exclusives fees?yet you come up here and make one for sony?
why do you feel the need to create such a thread?
i think they might have paid this much:
to be honest i really dont care how much they paid or if they paid at all, i'm just happy that the game is coming out.

alone in the dark was postponed on PS3 to prevent its release form getting overshadowed by MGS4:GOTP...my 2 cents

1. phil said that sony doesn't pay for exclusives
2. n/a
3. yes
the relatively small user base is only 6 million away from the extraordinary user base of the xb360 and the gap is getting smaller each week (numbers according to this site). kojima said that the game needs to sell 1million day one in order for them to break even. this is probably possible considering that sony bought a bunch to pack with the system.
| Million said: WHat the fuck , Microsoft does this far more often than Sony does why don't we start a prediction league for how much MS pays for exclusives considering we've started a thread about how much Sony may have paid for one.
This thread is such a flamebait , why don't I start a thread about How many 360's have RROD'd ?or maybe How many things have the 360 got that other consoles had first ? . |

Its too late for sony to restructure the ps3 hardware. Heck, the guy who designed it has been fired. Some of us have no choice but to support the brand we've invested in since everyone else wants to choke it out.

Actually, I find both console manufacturers do a lot of moneyhatting. Microsoft did Star Ocean 4 and Tales of Vesperia, Sony did UT3, MGS4 and Haze (wow, big mistake).
However, to my knowledge, none of those titles other than MGS4 is on the verge of release? No?
