[QUOTE="Pimpshigity21"]These are the opinions the professionals that are creating your games. I'll take their word over yours.
You can cry foul from now until the new generation of consoles are released, but the only way you will change opinions is by:
1) studying computer science
2) getting a job in a major gaming studio
3) making incredible PS3 games that will prove all those lazy devs wrong
Otherwise: Devs assessments>>>>Your opinionThe_Crucible
I'm sorry, this is such a norm and crap argument used in SW in every thread. Instead of just focusing on the facts at hand, you decide to focus on the one who posted. Am I a dev, no? Is 99.99999999% of the users in SW? NO! So, quoting one dev and then telling me I'm wrong when i quote another is not "teh pwnage." There have been devs that have talked very highly of the PS3 just as there have been those that bash it. Thus far, a lot of the PS3 games have been very impressive for first year titles, especially considering the 360 grasp. It's year one, homes.
Development for CoD4 started a long time ago. Did you hear how Sony is begging developers (lazy or not) not to abbandon their struggling platform? Maybe you didn't. Check it out...and prepare to have your heart broken.Pimpshigity21
Yeah, I saw that ONE article from that ONE writer who didn't even have direct quotes from devs or Sony. To think that Sony, the maker of the PS1 and PS2 needs to beg developers is just ludicrous. Yes, the PS3 is in third and in a position that Sony has had before, but that doesn't mean all power in the industry is lost.
How is having a technology that people are familiar with bad for business? How is having a technology that devs are threatening to abandon good for Sony? Lazy or not, they don't like the technology...and that technology is not proving to be very lucrative for them. Criticize them all you want, but you better start buying their lazy games or all the begging in the world is not going to help Sony very much.That new technology of yours is not producing anything amazing right now. All the time that could be spent creating something wonderful (Sony's 4D, lol) is being used just to create something that looks just as good as it does on the 360. When you tie that technology to a crappy GPU and a horrible memory allocation it is understandable why developers are having such a hard time with the PS3. Pimpshigity21
Did I say having easier technology was bad? NO! I said devs have gravitated towards it because of it and the install base. But that doesn't mean it not going to get easier for PS3. Last gen the PS2 was a pain for quite a while before devs showed some comfort. As more games are made on the PS3, the knowledge is increased on how to get the most out of it. Plain and simple. Not to mention, to think the install base isn't going to increase dramatically from this year on, you are not paying much attention.
And, then, at the end, you show just how ignorant you can be. You're going to laugh about 4D? Do you even know what 4D means in video games? I'm sure you don't. You think it relates to wearing red and green lenses and 3D. Its living enviroments. Its being on a map, in a sandbox game, and having things change like they do in life, night and day, seasons, growth, etc. If you think that's an impossibility, again, you are not paying attention.
Keep grind'n that axe man!
