Sony Admits Lack Of Developer Support

Coltrain | June 24, 2008 | News | Playstation 3

Sony have at last faced the awful truth that we have all known from the outset, that has given us a library of uninspired ports, frame rate issues and uninspired unique IP's: The difficulty in developing for the PS3 has driven away developers.

In a manner very unlike Sony, Shuhei Yoshida, president of Sony Worldwide has come out and admitted to the problem and attempted to address it with the community.

EDIT: At least they admit to it. But TBH, the PS3's library is not as bad as they said it was.

Love the bias: 'in the meantime, I'm gonna go chat online on Xbox Live.'

Well finally they're admitting what developers have been saying since it came out.

Way to ride the short bus to gaming's frontlines Sony.
