don't take my bubbles.... :-(
i'm just repeating what they said... and they were referring the pc game devs too... not just ps3 vs 360... but ps3 vs 360 vs pc
wow... lots a disagrees for posting a developers opinion. not even my own..
eurogamer is a very respected website, if they say ubisoft gave them the schedule i'd be inclined to agree. And unless you provide a link all I remember them saying is that the ps3 version was the lead version and they simply couldn't confirm a fall 2007 release for the 360 version at that time... looks like they can now.
I don't remember any article saying that it would be late 2008.
UT3 and Haze are big... but not the biggest... Heavenly Sword, lair, gtaIV, and uncharted are all really big too... plus assassin's creed.
If you click the link you will see that it has Haze coming out 7 days earlier on the ps3 than the xbox 360/pc while in the summary they have a simultaneous launch...
thought i'd point that out.
its in november, close to black friday... they want to have as many AAA games on the shelf as possible for that day... plus, the games cater to different audiences... one is a tried and true WWII FPS.. the other is an active stealth game.
On a side note... The "timed" exclusive for Haze looks to be 7 days... which won't make a huge difference in sales between the platforms. The only thing that might make a difference is how eager the respective platforms are for that...
i know about LBP... i apologized below... see my comment
and yes, a downloaded game can be improperly downloaded... if there is a disturbance in the stream to the console and a packet doesn't make it to intact then the game would be corrupted and need a redownload... not common, but it can happen
plus, sometimes firmware updates can corrupt files. Sometimes new firmware introduces something that isn't completely backwards compatible and can break other routines....
I didn't realize that, sorry for that, my mistake.
But I think the rest of my arguments still stand...
still not sure what people disagreed with about my statements with XNA... And Aegis wing was developed by 3 interns using XNA... then distributed over XBLA for free.
what do you think aegis wing is????
plus, I've been playing with the framework for a little, and its really cool... however, you may never even know if you're playing a game that uses it... There won't be any logo's... and I'm sure many xbox/pc games will use it because porting is so easy.
XNA is just a framework within C# that gives developers tools to do things that C# doesn't provide. It simply saves the developer time by giving many functions and routines...
but I doubt this is true seeing as in an interview they said that at least half the developers preferred playing on the xbox version

I think if its delayed it will be because of halo 3, blacksite, and the hundred other games coming out that month.
For several reasons. Flow was a PC game first that was retrofitted with Motion Sensing Controls. Little Big Planet is not a PSN game, but a disc game with downloadable content + PSN multiplayer. Tekken 5:DR was an Arcade/PSP title before it made its way onto PS3. The only new thing for T5:DR is online play which is not new considering that xbox 360 already has downloadable fighting games that have online multiplayer (SF2, small arms, and mortal kombat 3 i believe, although no sure on mk3)...
6,000 movies / 2,500,000 movies (hd-dvd and bluray) = .0024
in other words, of all the movies that have been sold (world wide) in HD the australian market comprises 0.24% wow... so bluray taking 91% of 0.24% is important eh?
so will monster hunter 3 be multi? I'm just wondering...
anyhow, its too bad halo 3 dropped off, but trusty bell moved up slightly. And if monster hunter 3 becomes multiplatform that makes DMC4, Lost Odyssey, Resident Evil 5, Monster Hunter 3, and Trusty bell for the 360... of course, those capcom games will probably sell better on the ps3 in japan... but they'll sell better on 360 in US/Europe.
i'll gladly pay the console tax instead of buying a new computer and paying the PC tax.

The year of lawsuits.
Didn't Mass Effect have something lie 400,000 lines of dialogue?
that'll take a while.
probably talking the campaign/balancing.
hmmm... halo 1 and 2 redone in the halo 3 engine!!!

I want to be surprised... i must keep myself in ignorance... i've heard its bliss.
