"....because at Sony we were shown what the original spec of the PS3 might be -- which turned out to be incredibly different than what actually did come out."

"For this project, we led on PlayStation 3, and in a way I think that's what most people are doing. We found out that people were doing 360 and then trying to get stuff across to PS3 and were struggling with it. There seems to be less of a struggle to go the other way, I think. You hear things that you have to put a lot of effort into on PS3 and get it up and running pretty quickly on the 360. Then, like everyone else you have to scramble to get your framerate up."

again, 0/10.

dev's start on the ps3 version first not because of a lack of power, but because of the very different architecture it uses from the xbox 360.

Developing for PS3 is much more expensive and time consuming then compared to Xbox 360 or PC in a similar game ratio. I wonder how much the development cost would decrease if the Playstation 3 didn't exist and Xbox 360 and PC were the prime platforms. I would also like to know how much better games would be if they only focused on two platforms instead of divided up resources for a third, much different platform. You always see small and medium sized developers develop more likely for PC and port to Xbox 360 due to similar architectures.ShadowDeathX

too bad the 360 version will be inferior due to 3 discs.xbox360-theme

I can't be bothered to read through a 4 pages interview, but 7 years in development? That seems wrong.. And no - this does not confirm the PS3 version to be inferior.danish-death

No. This game was announced in 2005 or 2006. I know for a fact Red Dead Redemption was announced in 2005 with the reveal of the PS3.

3 discs...no exclusive content. Just saying.TheMoreYouOwn
