Devs putting PS3 first !
« on: December 20, 2007, 02:03:26 AM »
PS3 has become leading development platform !

Quote

Sony America boss Jack Tretton says that developers are beginning to create games primarily on PlayStation 3 and then port them to other formats, reversing the early trend of focusing on Xbox 360 and PC and dealing with PS3 as an afterthought.

"We are now starting to see developers creating games on PS3 and then porting them to other platforms such as EA\'s Burnout [Paradise]," Tretton said in an IGN interview.

"Developers are telling us that they are starting to create their games on PS3 first and take advantage of the hardware capabilities and then port down to other platforms so we are seeing tremendous progress from the third party community in terms of what they are able to do with our development kits."

Nice biased source. Get me a source from someone not at Sony and I\'ll believe it. As it stands, games are being ported to the PS3 and most those ports are turning out like total shit (Lost Planet, The Orange Box and others).

Actually, several devs have confirmed that botched-port days are over. EA, Ubisoft etc. And since Epic thanks to Sony have managed to deliver a working UE3.0 engine to the PS3 things are looking very bright.

IIRC it has been said for a while that it is easier having PS3 as main platform as it is easier porting from PS3 to 360 than the other way around. So these news are not very surprising to me. Its just a way more efficient way of doing ports, instead of having to delay the PS3 version (costing money) because of issues with porting from 360 to PS3. Why these news now? Well the first gen games have mostly been delivered, those games started out on 360 when PS3 wasnt even out.. Now a new wave of games are coming out and they can choose PS3 as base platform.

Burnout and GTA are the only two titles that i\'m aware of that devs have obviously developed on the PS3 first.  However, give the PS3 another year to mature and it\'ll probably be pretty even, that is, if total sales for both consoles even out. Seeing as some of Sony\'s big sequels coming out soon, that will probably happen.

I don\'t see PS3 becoming the dominant developer platform though.

there\'s actually a lot more. even assassin\'s creed\'s ps3 version got lower scores on ign and they had a ps3 team and a 360 team..not a port

But yea, i\'d like to hear that from developers since it\'s mainly been developers wanting to avoid the console wars controversey. The whole news quote just sounds a little too..perfect for the ps3, like sony is running in a field of dandelions and life is beautiful

I was thinking the exact same thing. As soon as I read it was from a Sony rep, I dismissed the article. MS is probably saying the exact same thing.

we\'ve already acknowledged burnout

the way he\'s talking he\'s saying it\'s universal..not just one developer. But the whole quote seems taken out of context and/or exaggerated

My point is, it was the same exact knee jerk reaction this kind of news would of received, had it not been from Sony, but another one of the companies.  Until we see actual developers saying they are putting the PS3 first, I don\'t think you can really trust in what is being said. It\'s Sony spin - just like MS saying the same, would be MS spin.

Sure there are more games that are worse off on PS3, but not as bad as Orange Box and Lost Planet (which sucks huge cock anyways :D ).

Assassins Creed is not as bad, there is a difference but not as big.
Ubisoft started with the PS3 version after starting up the game on the 360. The first versions of the game were on 360, even when Ubi said it was a PS3 exclusive. :liar:

meaning that it was a port? they said on the dvd (special edition of the game) that they had 2 separate teams. then again they also said the side-quests and investigation missions would be diverse,lol

But i know what you mean..i try not to get caught up in all that bs since i probably wouldnt see a difference in most of the games if i had both consoles
