Metal Gear Solid creator Hideo Kojima and Square-Enix's Tetsuya Nomura both believe PlayStation 3 will be the best outlet for their games in two or three years' time.
Speaking in an interview with Japanese Ge-Maga, partly translated by IGN, Kojima, who has been a staunch supporter of PS3 since its unveiling in May 2005, compared the Sony console to a movie theatre - while Xbox 360 "is watching a DVD at home" and "Wii is a television program".
"If you think about the future of the industry and game creators, I get the feeling that the winner had better be the movie theatre," he said.
Nomura, meanwhile, was less flamboyant in his praise but backed Sony nonetheless.
"Thinking two to three years from now, the PS3 will be the most appropriate," he said. "We feel that when the games that we're making are released, the PS3 will be strong in the market."
But while both developers seem to be content with the Sony console, despite its apparent loss of momentum at E3, neither is entirely happy with Sony's announcements.

“I thoroughly enjoy retro-style games and with that, Magic Orbz modernises the classic brick breaking formula and it has held up beautifully.” - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums.
BLG writes, "Some of the most popular games have had a rough start, with some of them being downright unplayable.
Despite that, developers have managed to turn it around for them and make their game worth playing. Here are some games that had a rough start but were pretty great."
Sea of Thieves... I'm not disagreeing that the game has improved in terms of content. But I feel that the most significant change between now and its release is actually the public perception. Nowadays, most people are aware that the game is a multiplayer PvP-focused experience first and foremost, and not "Black Flag made by Rare". Consequently, people dismissing the whole experience because the single-player aspect is lacking or the story is plain are much less common.
Several years ago, i submitted an idea to Rare that would change up the mechanics of battling opponents in the game. whereby if you died in battle, you turned into a skeleton warrior and had to fight your way back to the land of the living. It was an interesting twist on respawning and would allow the player to experience both sides of a battle.
I keep hoping to see something like that get added to the game.
It's sad that this quick retort is more often than not true... The industry's acceptance of release and patch has gone too far.
Days gone! By the end of the game I couldn't drop it down! I went around so many hours killing zombies! It was addictive by the end.
I don't know, I got it abit late, and struggled for a few days, and then all of a sudden it just got good!!
I get their point but the only thing that is time relevant is the blue ray drive. If the games suck there is not life for the console at all. So far the only game that says "You have to buy a PS3." Is...... is......Um......UH cant think of any.
When will people stop kissing Sony's ass. I hate this talk about the PS3 being this biggest and greatest new thing and everything else sucks in comparison because its simply not true. They have becomes so full of themselves that they have other people brainwashed from their constant bantering on the same issues. The whole purpose of sony's developement was to push bluray technology to sell its future lineup of 1080p tv's and games are secondary period.
they haven't even tried developing for the 360. and yet theyr dumb enough not to realise that theres nothing that the ps3 can do that the 360 cannot do just as well if not slightly better.
They bow to Sony and its power.
That's like asking the Bungie crew which console is better
they know which system is better. that why there betting on sony. i have a 360 i cant stand it.
