Although I can understand why you may think that, games and movie production are on completely different sides of the spectrum. For example, in a movie the actors/actresses (generally) act and deliver his or her dialogue. This is dissimilar to a game where the game studio must animate, match up the animation to the dialogue, and then actually create the rest of the game. Even though a game company has a fundamental game engine to start from, quirks and additional coding is required for the full game. Collision testing, camera angles and game testing are time consuming processes. With all of this said, in no way am I devaluing the work put into a feature film; I just believe that games are a more time-consuming process.
@experience_fade Having a fully fledged out story with little to no fluff is more important than a long and tedious one. If Beyond: Two Souls achieves a story-driven campaign that keeps me on my feet throughout, I'll be more than satisfied.
I believe the PSN being hacked was the best-worst thing that could happen for Sony... If that makes sense. The "Welcome Back" program from Sony (although extremely laggy since everyone was accessing it at once) I presume will give a substantial boost in revenue for the company, actually... With the month free of PS+ giving discounted game prices, people may be more inclined in buying from the PS store and in fact increase the amount of sales FOR Sony. Sony should have offered the month free months ago persuading people that it is in fact worthwhile... I have the strangest feeling many people will miss the little "+" icon floating to the top left of their name and buy a subscription. And, as polls have shown, the loyalty of PSN users is barely tattered... It's just the infrequent few who complain about free games/movie rentals--which is a little ridiculous itself.
