sorry CrazzyMan, HideoKojima was saying the same thing about MGS4 and we all know that the PS3 exclusivity is not saved ...

and for the fact that a game is only able to be make on PS3 (and not Xbox360 ofc) like FFXIII or MGS4, I take these comments with " " since until the last annuncement u never know on which system the game will be released

and even if Xbox360 is "effectively" inferior in term of power than PS3, u can just release a "lighter" version of ur game and it becomes multiplateform game ...

Time to Work !

Sounds like bolstered claims, I'll wait till we have some hard evidence though. After all, they said the same thing about MGS4 too and guess where it looks like that is going? :)
It sounds, that FFXIII is not possible on x360. Or find me FFXIII developer comment, that stated, that they could easy make FFXIII on x360. LOL.

about MGS4... =))

libellule, Kojima stated, that PS3 is a theatre and x360 is dvd, and in best way, x360 would get a crappy port. Cell is far beyond of x360 cpu, that mean physics, AI and some effects are far beyond of x360 capabilities.

 



Every 5 seconds on earth one child dies from hunger...

2009.04.30 - PS3 will OUTSELL x360 atleast by the middle of 2010. Japan+Europe > NA.

1.8 mln. PS3 today(2008.01.17) in Japan. Now(2009.04.30) 3.16 mln. PS3 were sold in Japan.
PS3 will reach 4 mln. in Japan by the end of 2009 with average weekly sales 25k.

PS3 may reach 5 mln. in Japan by the end of 2009 with average weekly sales 50k.
PS2 2001 vs PS3 2008 sales numbers =) + New games released in Japan by 2009 that passed 100k so far

CrazzyMan, even Kojima has been spotted spouting double-speak regarding the relative power of all three consoles. Selective quoting will get you nowhere in this forum since people here are quite well informed.

1UP: It's interesting that you think you could do this on 360, though.

HK: Maybe some nuance or a small details here and there might be different, but I feel that hardware is no longer a matter. I'm just talking about PS3, 360 and PC. Revolution is totally different, but there are really no differences among the other three.

If you're going to go with that argument, then I can say that Kojima's words are not trustworthy and can call bullshit on his other statement. After all, who would trust someone who speaks about the PS3's capabilities before they have access to them?

You can't really win by quoting Kojima until he has worked with the 360... Let's wait until MGS4 is out, and then see how good it is.

He is not bullshiting!
He just didn`t know the REAL capabilities of PS3, NOW HE KNOWS. It`s far beyond of x360.
Come on, it was 18 month ago!
To achieve PS3 potential is needed TIME, and Kojima HAD that TIME, that`s why now HE STATES, that PS3 is far beyond of x360, because NOW HE KNOWS real capabilities of both system.

Not knowing something doesn`t = bullshit.

Did Kojima work with the 360 enough to be an authority on that? If yes, I'll be the first to admit defeat and apologize to you.

Kojima said pretty recently that it's PS3 only (2 months ago maybe).



Thanks to Blacksaber for the sig!

Ugh, how did this devolve into an MGS discussion again... not blaming you, Ck, but hoping you'll be the one to help me stop it. Can we please get back on topic?

Please keep in mind that I'm talking long term, here, not short. A lot of people in this thread have responded with "But PS3 has Lair and Uncharted coming and..." which is beside the point. I'm not talking this year. Heck, I'm not even necessarily talking this generation; I'm talking about the parallel strategies of these two companies over the next 5, 10 or 15 years, and how this strategy favors Microsoft long term, not Sony.

Both companies are using their video game consoles as trojans to push their company's other technologies, in and out of the actual video game arena. Both push tons of money at their consoles, and are willing to take a loss now for long term gains (or even long, long term gains). The problem is that Microsoft simply has a lot more money to push with, and the erosion of 3rd party exclusivity on the PS3 -- in comparison to its predeccesor -- is evidence of it.

They're playing the same game, but Microsoft is simply better prepared to play. Mind you, this doesn't mean Sony can't win. That's not what I'm saying. Instead, I simply believe that in order to win long term, Sony can't win this way. A new strategy is required.

He saw Gears of war, and he worked with ps3 ENOUGH to STATE THAT.

Bodhesatva, Sony has SAME strategy, with ps3, ad it has with psOne and ps2. The only difference, PS3 is most expensive console in this generation, blu-ray is not a standart yet.

Is that a problem? Hmm.. let`s think in long perspective, price will drop, blu-ray with ps3 will be more popular. So that`s wrong? Price won`t drop, blu-ray won`t be a standart? =))
