If Insomniac is feeling pushed by GG and vice versa then I think we are looking at two games that should blow peoples socks off.
I know internally 1st and 2nd party Sony studios share an amazing amount of tech and technical know how. It's pretty synergistic and the results of this tech sharing is being reflected. View

I figure Diablo would be a huge Coup for XBL if they could swing it past Blizzard - probably the most likely of the lot to hit XBL.

I would bet that games like Daggerfall and such won't be ported...

the others have as great of chance of hitting PSN and / or the Wii View

Going to try it (rent).... but if it really is as uninspired as they make it sound - they squandered a prefect opportunity to make WW shooters fun again. View

A 2 year development cycle with a decent programming team as well as cross team fertilization of ideas = Insomniac being a leading developer for a long time to come.

as for R&C - not really a surprise that it has a long sales tail. Like they said : older owners = slower adoption of a the game but adoption would come. View

Exactly - no piece of software that is complex will be free of error/bugs. It's common sense and common knowledge (or at least common knowledge to developers). View

Hmmm well the PS3 doing PS2 has 1 significant advantage over the PS2:
Upscale.
Reason I use my PS3 rather than a PS2 to play PS2 games. View

Oo
what's with all the disagrees?

Just because I said a game can't be evaluated from a press release?
Isn't that logical? View

Could be a good game, Could be not a good game. I mean all we are working with here is press release type stuff. Positive spin at all costs on press releases.

I applaud the Gears Team for the work they did on their first title and I will for the next title as well. Epic does good work and Cliffy has made them a horde of cash with Gears 1.

That said until we actually touch the game or at least see it - it will be hard to evaluate. Epic has made bombs in the past (though not in recent history) and like all developers they will make bombs in the future. View

Speaking as a Developer: The event is for developers to learn and is not meant to be a news conference.

Sony made a mistake last year by turning it into a news conference. I was glad to see this year they avoided making none development related announcements till after GDC. View

Valve has to ask for those dev kits. They are not expensive (anymore) and Sony is great with helping with coding issues now. Their toolset is much improved (and in some eyes better then the x tools now).

Sony has been actively dessiminating programming techniques to any and all who care.GG, Insomniac, etc all have been helping out with tools and programming help.

To see a picture of this... look at what Sony has done at past GDC
PhyreEngine compiler tools, Nocturne Library, Edge Tools, Code Profilers

They have even sent in technicians to help when developers could not find their way around an issue lately. View

Actually I totally agree - a Bad port should not be made.

just one thing though

Kojima has said it will never port
Valve said it is possible to port... View

PoG are you just that blind, or is it that you feel that anything working on the competition is a threat to your way of life?

Yes the PS3 can run it - the question really should be whether a port would be a good idea or not.
Generally not a good idea if it wasn't design for Asymmetric Multiprocessing to begin with.
Symmetric to Asymmetric redesign is complicated but the reverse is much easier.

A bad port is worse then not having the game at all. My feelings are that if you can't do a good job then don't do it. View

well one thing Consoles don't need to worry about is having resolutions greater then 1920x1080 and framerates that are not locked

PC users will fight to have the max resolution possible and framerates in excess of 100 or so if they can

Console developers are limited to broadcast resolutions and aim to beat broadcast framerates

that is - anything better then 30 fps and with a max resolution of 1920x1080 is enough. View

Should be relatively cheap

original game was 10$ and the expansion 5$
I hope they release them together for approximately 12$ View

Very Cool of a company to do things like this.

Sure it may be for their PR image but doing good even for the wrong reasons is still doing good! View

Finally - the media actually interviews the right guys - Matsushita Electric Industrial Company rather then Sony. View
