Forums - Sony - How much is Sony costing this industry? (Developers and Video sotres alike)

Small desvs with limited budgets can make PSn games, so there goes that.

Calling all Cars cost 1 million took one year to make.

 Nothing you've said so far did anything but bring up anecdotal evidence in regards to what I was talking about.  If you want to say something about the PS3's ease of development other than citing an online distribution model and three developers who happened to make good looking games on it, please, by all means, lets talk.

It easier to dev for then the PS2, and if the devs suck or are poor they should get the hell out of the industry.

Or licence a game engine from Epic or whom ever.



^ That is by far one of the most ignorant posts I have ever heard.

 I am overwhelmed by your rationale and maturity.

I would say that it is remarkably rare for a game developer to "Suck" to the extent where they're not able to produce a good game, and usually their problems come from lack (or mismanagement) of resources, lack of time and a poor development process. As a general rule there is a certain probability that any developer can have the right conditions necessary to produce the "Next Big Thing" and after they do they have a much better understanding on how to manage their development, and are able to negotiate much more successfully with their publisher which makes it easier for them to produce high quality games in the future.

In other words, you want even the crappy developers to thrive in order to have more good games in the future.

You're wrong. Developers like Factor 5 should obviously be run out of the industry after a game like Lair, despite making some pretty good games in the past.

One f***-up on the PS3 and the developer is done for, permanently. They're obviously incapable of making any game worth playing.

Yeah.

...

Er, wait. Or was Lair good? These fanboys keep confusing me.

Why do you even post here you belog in the wii forum, your posts happen some of the most ignorant stuff o this whole forum.

If they cant affored it, WHY should they even try then fail badly lose money and going bankrupt ?

If they cant affored to make a engine, they should get one from someone else its far cheeper whats wrong with this ?

And if its just overll all to expensive for them, they need to get the hell out. Maybe do games for handhelds or Cell phones.
