valve are actually doing the hl2 for pc and 360 in house and they have out sourced the ps3 version because it takes so much re-programming

Maybe if the developers spent more time working than complaining they would actually get a game with good quality done that is actually worth the $50 to $60 it costs for a game these days.

Oh yeah, that’s for sure, but it doesn’t require developing an entire game on top of that

Even if it’s a “port”, it’s still pretty demanding since it’s a whole new development environment.

“I was just thinking that the complaining of how hard it is is ridicuolus, i understand what your saying but then the complaints should say “It takes alot of time to write games” not “its hard it sux””

That’s what they mean though, when it’s harder to write games for a certain platform, why bother. They end up making more money if they just stick to the easier platforms.

I would like to know what the kids who made counter-strike think about this.. Are they not the main reason why Valve is big?
Nintendo is doing good because they are appealing to a large fan base. You don’t hear about people over 60 playing regular consoles, but you’ll hear several stories of them playing the Wii with their grand kids. Plus it appeals to people who can’t afford an HDTV and all the goodies.

With enough good games and more HDTVs I’m sure the PS3 will soon expand into people’s homes, plus I don’t think it makes any sense to just stop selling it.

yeah robby answer by u,its cost way to much money and if they have it an easy time coding for the 360 than the ps3.Guess who wins!

Because it’s very different when you’re developing games, someone is paying you to develop it, and the longer it takes, the more expensive it is to develop the game. Learning how to code for a console, fun or not, costs time money.

Web pages, yeah they’re fun to code, I’ve learnt PHP, SQL, and ASP and it’s probably the best programming experience I’ve had.

It seems odd that devs complain and whine, I understand its hard to code for the ps3, but when I was learning to write web pages the coding problems I was having was fun!
To come out and say “this sucks kill it” sounds like a cop out to me…
Wheres the fun in challenge? isnt that why we play games?
They knew getting into the game dsign/writing/coding biz wasnt going to be easy!
I say if you cant take the heat…yada yada yada

HL2: Orange is only a port, it’s not like they’re making a whole new game. Developing PS3 games is hard work.
