ok then...whats the point of having their own little stores...why not just have a sort by publisher option..
are they paying sony for this? or is sony taking a higher % or something? it doesnt make sense...

So, basically the title should be "Capcom praises Sony for more PSN exposure. Microsoft wouldn't comply."

agreed

I dont want dedicated stores.. I want it all in one place from all sources. This suits the retailer (capcom) more than the consumer.

If lots follow suit it could become an unholy mess difficult to navigate.

That's a fair point alright Koweniciki I never looked at it that way.

Holy mother of God, I hope not! Unless I'm getting free Capcom themed items, turning on my PS3 walking my avatar around for minutes to find a Capcom store, and buying a game does not seem fun or intuitive. I'd much rather say "Hey, Commando is for sale at the PS Store!" Purchase the game, and play it. The average consumer probably doesn't even know who makes Street Fighter, Ghouls and Ghosts, or Bionic Commando. They just want to play the game. We'll see how it goes.

I don't think Capcom has enough DLC for them to have their own store.

Love the product, not the company. They love your money, not you.

I actually love the idea. One of the sole reasons I use IGN over Gamepsot and other site is i can browse via company to find out what my favorite developers/publishers have that is upcoming. Capcom being one of my most trusted developers does sweeten the deal for me of course.

I would also think that developers might be able to try many more smaller interesting projects that they wouldn't if they had to make it available via disk.
