And now you will hear the fanboys saying paying for online play is the right thing to do when they condemned it for so long. It is still a money grab by either MS or Sony, if they want to limit their other services such as their online stores, etc.. they should but online games should be free, especially considering most of the times it's the devs shouldering their games online costs. Look at PC.
So many bright people behind the scenes making magic. A lot of them deserve the spot light but then many of them are not so socially capable that they'd sell the product they represent.
Simple, because it's a quick cash grab. This is a mod of GT5 with a few added features and few tweaks to their rendering engine so they can say they're using something new.
That would be great. MS has a problem where their research team makes cool tech and their business division takes ages to put it to the market, let's hope that's changing.
A big problem in Japanese dev studios seems to be the time of development. It seems they want to remake the wheel every time and refuse to use existing tools. Looking at SE and how long they took to make a remake.. that sort of behavior can kill a company.
Some studios know how to do it right, just look at From Software and Souls series.
