Forums - Sony Discussion - Sucker Punch explain their exclusivity

They're lazy devs, what they're basically saying is that they can't be bothered to make games for the 360 because they're crap, lazy developers.

I dont remember them saying it was because it was too complicated to port games to the 360?  Or because they wouldnt try?  Like another certain lazy dev

right... then why make the game for PS3?
exclusive 360 has a bigger audience and the same freedom of creativity.
exclusive Wii has a bigger userbase, less reliance on graphics investments and more control possibilities...

Because working with Sony is actually enjoyable. Even on the PR side I much prefer Sony's PR reps then Microsoft or Nintendo's.

Like Valve and Bungee?


Exactly like valve. Not so much Bungee since they were a first party studio and after becoming independant are still contracted by MS.

thats only for Halo. There is no reason why they cannot make other games except for Halo.


I thought it was every game. MS has first say if they want it exclusive or not. Why shouldn't they cash in on Halo? Its what they know makes money. But if you were to say they are lazy by not trying to do something different I'd agree with you.

And thats what makes them good


@SamuelRSmith

PS3 is the hardest system to develop for........so what do u mean by lazy exactly??

 



well working for Sony enables them to interact with other Sony studios regarding with improvements and technologies...
imagine,
for example:
naughty dog is working with insomiacs and guerilla...
etc.



PLAYSTATION®2 is the yesterday.....NOW.......still......A_L_I_V_E

Consoles own:

Nintendo: Famicom(japanese NES, Family Computer), GBC, GBA, DS, Wii

Sony: PS1, PS2, PSP, PS3

Microsoft: future 360 owner

1: Very simple explanation: because they enjoy working with Sony and vice-versa. Sony has been good for them, why would they bite the hand that feeds ?

2: Pure speculation at this point.

3: I call BS on that one. In fact, the Wii's controls are limitating it's third party support because it's actually much harder to find a control scheme that fits the motion controls without being bad or corny.



I agree with the OP. But I like it even more when that exclusive platform is my favorite one: PS3



 

It is better to die on one's feet

then live on one's knees

If this is what they want to do ... and it provides them with enough resources in their lives to do what they want to do ... and they are happy -- then it is for no one to say they are doing anything bad.

Trying to make the best game that you can for a single console should be admired rather than admonished. It is nice to see dedication to craft.
