Specs don't matter to most developers. It's all about the market share and Sony has the majority of it. Sony sold over 100 million PS2 systems, you'd have to be naive to ignore the potential profit you could gain by releasing a game for the system.
Team NINJA knows they could've made money by releasing a game on the PS2, but Team NINJA is one of the few developers that cares about specs. There's not many developers out there that care about specs. |
Then why in the world aren't they jumping to PS3?
I think it's just MS's deep pockets that actually keep TN there. |
You know what, I honestly have thought about that countless times and I believe your right. If this is truly going on then I can honestly say this is the smartest move MS has made. TN is definately a developer that can make systems sell.
Another reason could be the fact that Itagaki has created a large fanbase on the XBOX platform, and he seems to be very loyal to his fans so maybe his philosophy on "Must work with the best specs" has changed a little. _________________

Yeah that's true...if they are keeping TN, then that is one of the best moves/"buys" they have made. Which then leads me to question why they would go around and spend 80M on Too Human...but that is a whole other subject.
Yeah, Japense devs seem to be attached/loyal to their fanbase. Like Mikami that went against capcom for porting RE4 to PS2. |

LoL you know theres not much differnce in the GPU power from Xbox 360 and PS3, and i think the PS3 will have their problems with overheating more maybe.
if Itagaki would just leave us now he would be plain dumb and someone should take an AK-47 and shoot him and his crew in their heads. leave alot Fans just for better specs is really really dumb. _________________

Hence the multiplatform titles that were made with the PS2 in mind. _________________
