That atari founder guyjust dissed the ps3. I'm getting the PS3 despite but still. As a gamer that favors Sony the most (even though I intend on getting all the next gen systems at some point.) you cant help but not like Sony's chances all that much. I've been the type of person that avoids bad news or at least not make such a big deal out of them like others. But you cant hind certain things. Like what are the chances of Sony losing certain exclusives like MGS4. These developers are wasting milions making a game for a certain system and if that system has little demand what is stopping them from either stop deveopment overall or just cancel it for that system and go on a different system. Plus otehr them exclusives like MGS4 and FF and manybe some others , the 360 now has the best selection of exclusives. Gears of war , Bioshock will be a great game again a exclusive for the 360. Dead rising , SC5 , Halo , etc. Sony only has a ew exclusives and everything else will be on multipiple consoles. Frst fanboys bashed the 360 and now game developers , add to that the never ending cycle of horrible news for the PS3 since E3 you cant help but to worry a little. Like I said I always intend on buying all systems but I tend to favor a certain one and as someones who favors Sony , I'am now starting to worry. I hope somewhere down the line molre exclusives games will come out for the PS3 and I hope that games like FF and MGS4 remain PS3 exlusives.

Sounds like the developers that bashed the PS2 when it was released. They said it was too hard to program for and that the Dreamcast was more pleasent to work with. We all know where that went.

Atari?????

Are you guys old enough to remember the Jaguar? This is on Wikipedia which as far as I recall is quite true:

===================
From Wikipedia

Through its lifetime, the (Atari) Jaguar had an overall low number of titles due to being difficult to develop for. This was due to serious bugs in the released hardware (such as a memory controller flaw that could halt processor execution out of system RAM). Customers complained the Jaguar controller was needlessly complex, with over 15 buttons.

By the end of 1995, after the entrance of the Sony PlayStation and the Sega Saturn, the Jaguar's fate was all but sealed. In an interview [3], Sam Tramiel, CEO of Atari, touted that the Jaguar was much more powerful than the Saturn (which was untrue) and slightly weaker than the PlayStation. He also predicted the price of the PlayStation to be $500 and said that any price from $250 to $300 would be price dumping and that Atari would sue to block sales (they never did). His comments were selected as #3 in GameSpy's Top 25 Dumbest Moments in Gaming.

I like all the next-gen systems and when I hear people bashing any of them, it makes me angry.  So what if PS3 is hard to develop for?  Deal with it, get around it, and develop for it.  By doing this, one might learn some cool things that they can do with the hardware and not anywhere else.  PS2 had a learning curve, but look at the great software that was/and will be on it.  If a developer is not up for a challenge, then they should not even say anything on the subject.

I've said it in the OTHER thread, because like there already IS one if you'd use the search. The guy is a weak useless old man with no stroke whatsoever. they put a mic in his face to ask about the current generation and all he could do was spit bile at whoever was in the lead so he could make a headline. otherwise his comments would have been tossed in a trash can untill Inforgrams/Atari did something like sell all their stock and drop off the planet... again.

MS has the money and money talks. Also I could care less what some developer has to say when Sony's future is the present then and only then can judgement be taken out for better or for worse.

nvorgang


Easy for you to say, it's not your money.

I get you point about learning new things but in the real world people are in business to make money. If they spend all their capital up front in development and then don't get much return on the product they put out (i.e. it doesn't sell) they won't be in the game business very long. Sure the big guys EA, Activision, and Ubisoft etc. can afford a looser every now and then but the small developer will loose his shirt and be out on the street in a New York minute if they can't pay their employees, overhead, insurance, utilities...

Bam Butch, what are you smoking PS3 has more exclusives than Metal Gear 4 and Final Fantasy 13. It has Devil May Cry 4, Heavenly Sword, Coded Arms Assault, Tekken 6, Virtua Fighter 5, 8 Days, Resistance, Killzone, and Lair. PS3 has more and better exclusives than 360, and we wont have to wait a year for them like 360 fans did.

DISCLAIMER: I'm Not a fanboy. Well, the personal market strategy of the PS3 relies almost entirely on Brand loyalty which isn't good for a company's 3rd console. I mean the bashing and bashing and bashing is mainly everywhere...but Japan. Japan loves Sony...it's not going to flop there. That strategy makes them look like jerks. And of course it's easy to make of the big guy. Sony is beginning to act like Microsoft now (non-game Microsoft), making them the easy Big Corporation target. Now I don't know why people bash the SIXAXIS claiming to copy Nintendo...OVER COURSE YOU'RE GOING TO COPY NINTENDO, it's business. It's not like you make the first car that has air conditioning the original and the rest copiers. If your competition has something you don't have, get what they have.

Its not about a "Learning Curve" to program the console.  Developers have never overall liked the way sony has designed their consoles because the dev kits they release are created with HORRIBLE Software thats buggy, insanely hard to understand, and 100% Unnessessary to make it that way.

Where you go to MS, PC, or Nintendo and you can literally make the same game months faster because of the ease of development and cost is lower.  Developers put up with the PS2 because in all reality Sony owns the market at this time and instead of selling 1mil units on X console or PC you can sell 3 Million Units on PS2 if you make a game thats good enough to do so.

But with the PS3 Price Point, and still insanely moronic Dev Kit Software,  We have seen a LOT of developers starting to say "We give up, Im sick of this crap" having a bad mentality of it.  Hence Forth why a LOT of Developers are talking more about the Wii and 360 very seriously

It doesn't mean the PS3 is BAD,  It just means developers have put up with the PS2 for so long they were hoping for a break in the PS3.

In the End.  Thats Life and you learn to live with it.  Its just Normal People like you and me venting their frustration.  But I have no doubt this Gen your going to see a LOT more Exclusive Titles on Wii and 360 and not the PS3 than the Xbox or Gamecube had by a HUGE margin.  PS3 will more than likely still win though heh.  The Fanbase is just too huge as it stands at the Moment.

UntoldDreams

Yeah, but that's Sam Tramiel... the heads over at Atari have a history of doing stupid things (read up on their little Donkey Kong fiasco with Nintendo... priceless). But this isn't just some random business school grad... this is Nolan Bushnell... Computer Space? Pong? This guy practically invented video games. You can't just discount the guy's opinion because you've got a pre-order. This guy knows the industry... seen things come and go... including the company he founded (note that said company was not in his hands at the time of it's demise) and whether or not his predictions end up being true, it's not like the guy is some random analyst.

I've actually noticed the complete opposite. Look throughthe forum here, the only time you ever see the 360 or wii mentioned is by a fanboy trying to make the PS3 look bad. If the fanboys would just stick to their own damn forum we'd never have any trouble here.

Nice!

Incidentally, since someone mentioned the Jaguar, Tempest 2000 is probably one of the most addicting games ever.  If you ever get a chance to play it you probably should.  Pretty much the entire library for the Jaguar sucked, but there were one or two games that Atari released that were absolutely stellar.

DEAD RISING is a good game but not a GOOD NEXT GEN GAME.

RESISTANCE is on the same par as GEARS.

HEAVENLY SWORD TRASHES just about everything.

KILLZONE 2 would kill HALO.

BLUE-DRAGON is nowhere in the *** radar except FAMITSU.

FF ................the biggest franchise in the whole world.

MOTORSTORM................no comparison.

DMC 4 ......no comparison.

WHITE KNIGHT STORY ....................trashes both B DRAGON and lost odyssey.

MGS4..................no comparison.

RATCHET and CLANK............no comparison.

GOD OF WAR ps3.................no comparison.

TEKKEN 6...........no comparison + a huge system seller.

F1 ...........could a game be made any real than this?

VGT................1000x more defined than GT4................take that FORZA/PGR3

BIOSHOCK/ALAN WAKE are coming to the pc as well......................no big deal.

LAIR...............the most expensive game ever made(each char has 100x the polygon and textures as each char in GEARS)

FF12 is the no 1 selling game this wek followed by NW2 and GEARS.

PS3 would be getting a lot of must have exclusives down the line.............theres no competition.

being a far superior console...........there would be massive differences in graphical quality/gameplay in ayear or so.

I am hoping to play XMEN 3 on my ps3 on NOV 17.

with an inferior console MS has no chance .

Wii would give ps3 a run for money in Both Europe/***.

x360 is dead in *** and is going to die in Europe very soon.

In US ps3 would beat competitors by huge margins.......but both x360/Wii would do quite well.

I am in CANADA........i dont see people even talking about x360 here.............the only thing thats in everybody's mouth is the ps3.

JUST LOOK AROUND.............and you can find all answers.

Game Developers aren't the only ones, its now the makers of the PS3 hardware as well. 

Back when Sony announced the specifications of the PlayStation 3, everyone asked if it meant the end of PC gaming. After all Cell looked very strong and NVIDIA's RSX GPU had tremendous power. We asked NVIDIA how long it would take until we saw a GPU faster than the RSX. Their answer: by the time the PS3 ships. So congratulations to NVIDIA for making the PS3 obsolete before it ever shipped, as G80 is truly a beast.

X360 has already flopped...........except US the selling figures of its hardware is well below par.

In *** it sells 1000 per week.

In europe it sells 100 k versus 600k for DS and 400k for ps2.

only in US it is doing relatively well...............but performing well below both DS and ps2.

here is the charfor SEP..............oct is out recently and i will post it as soon as i get itt

September 2006 (US)
DS = 403,435
PS2 = 306,517
Xbox 360 = 259,458
GBA = 177,145
PSP = 153,353

That atari founder guyjust dissed the ps3. I'm getting the PS3 despite but still. As a gamer that favors Sony the most (even though I intend on getting all the next gen systems at some point.) you cant help but not like Sony's chances all that much. I've been the type of person that avoids bad news or at least not make such a big deal out of them like others. But you cant hind certain things. Like what are the chances of Sony losing certain exclusives like MGS4. These developers are wasting milions making a game for a certain system and if that system has little demand what is stopping them from either stop deveopment overall or just cancel it for that system and go on a different system. Plus otehr them exclusives like MGS4 and FF and manybe some others , the 360 now has the best selection of exclusives. Gears of war , Bioshock will be a great game again a exclusive for the 360. Dead rising , SC5 , Halo , etc. Sony only has a ew exclusives and everything else will be on multipiple consoles. Frst fanboys bashed the 360 and now game developers , add to that the never ending cycle of horrible news for the PS3 since E3 you cant help but to worry a little. Like I said I always intend on buying all systems but I tend to favor a certain one and as someones who favors Sony , I'am now starting to worry. I hope somewhere down the line molre exclusives games will come out for the PS3 and I hope that games like FF and MGS4 remain PS3 exlusives.Bam_Butch

Lol @ Atari, honestly who cares what he has to say about developing.

I don't think Gears is an exclusive because it is going on the PC.

I don't think Bioshock is an exclusive at all because its going on the PC and PS3 (not sure about PS3 but possitive about PC).

And No halo game has been exclusive so far so I can't see Halo 3 being an exclusive.

 

So this is why I took my xbox 360 money and spent it on my PC.

I like all the next-gen systems and when I hear people bashing any of them, it makes me angry.  So what if PS3 is hard to develop for?  Deal with it, get around it, and develop for it.  By doing this, one might learn some cool things that they can do with the hardware and not anywhere else.  PS2 had a learning curve, but look at the great software that was/and will be on it.  If a developer is not up for a challenge, then they should not even say anything on the subject.

Amen.  Now why can't we get more posts like this instead of the usual ones devoid of intelligent thought?

DEAD RISING is a good game but not a GOOD NEXT GEN GAME.

RESISTANCE is on the same par as GEARS.

HEAVENLY SWORD TRASHES just about everything.

KILLZONE 2 would kill HALO.

BLUE-DRAGON is nowhere in the *** radar except FAMITSU.

FF ................the biggest franchise in the whole world.

MOTORSTORM................no comparison.

DMC 4 ......no comparison.

WHITE KNIGHT STORY ....................trashes both B DRAGON and lost odyssey.

MGS4..................no comparison.

RATCHET and CLANK............no comparison.

GOD OF WAR ps3.................no comparison.

TEKKEN 6...........no comparison + a huge system seller.

F1 ...........could a game be made any real than this?

VGT................1000x more defined than GT4................take that FORZA/PGR3

BIOSHOCK/ALAN WAKE are coming to the pc as well......................no big deal.

LAIR...............the most expensive game ever made(each char has 100x the polygon and textures as each char in GEARS)

FF12 is the no 1 selling game this wek followed by NW2 and GEARS.

PS3 would be getting a lot of must have exclusives down the line.............theres no competition.

being a far superior console...........there would be massive differences in graphical quality/gameplay in ayear or so.

I am hoping to play XMEN 3 on my ps3 on NOV 17.

with an inferior console MS has no chance .

Wii would give ps3 a run for money in Both Europe/***.

x360 is dead in *** and is going to die in Europe very soon.

In US ps3 would beat competitors by huge margins.......but both x360/Wii would do quite well.

I am in CANADA........i dont see people even talking about x360 here.............the only thing thats in everybody's mouth is the ps3.

JUST LOOK AROUND.............and you can find all answers.

Devil May Cry is multiplatform now, sorry just thought I'd tell you that, but I like your opinion.
