Most Developers Say Xbox 720 Is The Easiest Console To Make Games For, Believe Sony Will Lose The Sales Battle Against MS Again



If you’ve been gaming for the past 7 years, there’s no way you’ll forget the fiasco that was PS3′s launch. It was a disaster. In fact, most gaming journalists who covered the early days of the console reckoned it would fail, as they saw no way Sony could get over the machine’s unbelievably high price tag, the lack of games on the thereon, and Microsoft’s push to secure timed-exclusive from major third-party partners. But Sony survived, and so did PS3, and although we reckon the firm should change or die, it seems as if old habits die hard, because according to game developers who spoke to IGN anonymously because of the sensitivity of the subject, who are now in the process of readying titles for PS4 and Xbox 720 to be released in 2013, Microsoft’s console is once again the easiest machine to developer games for.



The developers also believe that Microsoft’s new console will once again lead the sales battle for the next five years, however they gave the most damning verdict to Nintendo’s Wii U. 63% of developers said the Wii U would be the most challenging platform to create games for:

“We won’t be working on Wii U due to these complexities,” said one developer, while another questioned the ability to port games unique to Wii U to other platforms.



Microsoft, according to this report, is once again choosing the route of making its next Xbox a PC dressed in a pretty box, a move that worked extremely well for Xbox 360, and although we don’t know why it’s more difficult to build games for Sony’s upcoming console, it seems as if the company from the land of the rising sun has once more opted to be different, and although this is not a bad thing, we fear for Sony’s survival, because if it botches PS4′s launch. Game over.

If this is true, Sony is the dumbest !!ing company in the world. OR they will rely heavily on their exclusives to crush the buildings. I guess you can also blame these fu fu[..] developers for not being willing to......well...... develop no matter what the system is.

After the current generation, this is very easily believable. Developers want to make games for the 360, they make games for the ps3 cause they have to.

!!, I didn't know about two-disc games until my friend got ODST. Had me like "[pic] you're telling me they re-sold you the multiplayer of halo 3, on a separate disc? Why didn't they just sell you the one disc for $30? They ripped you off bro." My friend got mad defensive when I told him that. It wasn't until later I found out that they couldn't fit it on a single disc [pic]

Yea it seems like they like it more because it's easier ... I would rather fill up 1 DVD disc full instead of a full blue ray= less work

I think they going back to HD-DVD drives.











































































But this time I'll wait a year or two after releasing, who knows what type of hardware fail they will have.

I agree. I feel sorry for those that cheer about this though.
