How may times are we gonna hear this kind of thing!?

Nobody cares about this. Report on the home open beta :P

I dont beleive him, dint sound like he beleived it him self..guess we ll have to wait and see

uhhm okay,

we need to know this because...

This is not news.  It would be news if it caused a delay or something.  But reporting that they overcame a problem they were having is not news.

@ jicaley:  Until developers all start making PS3 the lead platform. 

They should ask for consulting from Infinity Wards, Naughty Dog, Insomniac or any other successful game developers available on the street. Or may be Digital Extremes should consider to ask them to developed his software’s. Look like they are not that extremes.

sony made a machine that different than anythign developers ever had to work with. They shouldn've sent them all a tutorial or something X_X

as long as it plays well when i get my hands on it..... i dont care about much else that happens in the dev process

here we go again....:(((

How about they start talking about how hard it is to develop for the Xbox? Seriously.. they never talk about that. He!! i'd be willing to bet they encounted their fair share of the problems during its first year too.. but we never hear about that now do we? This is getting old.

This was the first PS3 game they done, so it isnt strange that they had a hard time! The PS3 is great and powerful and the only problem for firste time programers is to understand how to use it. So dont take this as bad. The game works as good on PS3 as on the 360, so obviously they figured it out.

Thank God it's not a game I give a crap about.

Problem here is very easy really to understand thing is 360 works just like pc with old technology its easy to make a game that works fine with it because every dev knows how to make a game on a PC and its nearly same on 360 but on other hand here is ps3 which is far more advanced technology that doesn’t work well on standard old stile the way they are used to make games so they need to learn how to work with something new and in process of learning everyone is bound to make mistakes so that was the problem with it. And not all devs are so good that they can make a game with new technology on first try.
Then you see that davs complain about how ps3 is hard to work with or something else that sort in reality they are too lazy to work and prefer to go easy way with old technology or they are just not that good programmers as they want to be that’s all to it.

I am uninterested bout this game however cats saying they cant dev as good on the PS3 will soon die out. That was the same with PS2.Only a matter of time.

Don't think developer's are "lazy" because they have problems with porting to the PS3.  That is just ignorant.  Many studios didn't have the PS3 development reasources they needed 2 years ago so they made their game first for the XBOX 360 then had to play catch up on the PS3. 

"It looks just as good as the 360 version, which we're very happy about. Towards the end we started having some serious conversations about what we were going to do, but we ended up pulling it off, so we're very proud of that.

"It was just not running as well as the 360," he added.

Usually this'd be the bit where we rant on about how PS3 multi-platform problems should've been ironed out by now. But we've got the Sony version of Dark Sector right in front of us and it runs lovely, like. So there you are.

yea, ok. If they would stop doing the microsoft thing and took the time to work on the game, they wouldn't realese a bad game. Wich they are. 

why didn't they just call sony guys and ask them for help. it's that simple. if you have a problem or you can't understand ask for help.

another weak developer.

psn id: gingo... i cant believe developers are still complaining about this when the answer is staring them right in the face.... have ps3 as the lead development, it worked extremely well with burnout and i cant understand why other developers aren't copying criterions great idea

Why are you bad mouthing this guy for stating it's harder to develop for PS3? I mean the amount of developers that have said this... they can't all be lying, can they?

Hard to say if this title HAD PS3 version problems or still HAS issues? If it HAD problems that are now resolved what is the point of the article with the exception that thie developer is still struggeling with PS3 development??

One thing they should never say that its cause of the ps3 that its not running well its cause of the creater  that does not know how to make it work well with the ps3 anyhow im looking to try this game out it looks like it will have a nice story to it :)

well Sony also release at GDC the PhyreEngine which is a tool to make PS3 games.. so **** this guys...

I'm not surprised one bit. Dark Sector was a game that I was actually looking forward to a little bit but now I'm about ready to drop this game from my list of games for 2008. I'm not going to spend $60 on a second-rate game, I only spend my money on the best of the best.

In my personal opinion, Digital Extremes needs to push the game back a few months so that they can perfect the PS3 version.

Oh well, I'll just read the reviews on this game and see how it is, but I'm thinking that this game will get pretty average ratings (7.0 - 7.5)

>jicaley< until programmers get the hang of the memory, spu and streaming functions of the PS3.. after that you will hear nothing at all!

what the he!! is wrong with you people.  The dev just said it looks just as good as the 360 version, and that he is happy about that.  Why are you guys so mad at him and saying you are dropping this game?  He figured it out.  Good for them. 

Everyone just needs to shut up about the freakin Home beta.  There are plenty of people who want to know about it and PSU will bring it to us.  B!tching about it won't bring it any faster.

As for the article...

Now I'm worried.  Just because it looks the same doesn't mean it will run the same.  BlackSite was supposed to looks the same and we got the shaft.  And why would devs want to can something they already worked hard on?  Seems like a better investment to fix it, which they did, and I'm glad.

well fu<k me in the beard...

This looks like an awesome mix between gears and re4. Digital Extremes used to make a lot of map packs for the ut games. They are very familiar with the Unreal Engine. Id go out on a limb and say,other than Epic themselves, no other developer knows the Unreal Engine like Digital Extremes. Expect this game to rival Gears.

of course it wont run as well when you use old methods for future tech

well, uhhh, i guess i'll wait for a demo before i buy this game

Wasn't this game suppose to be a ps3 exclusive?

I really want this game, but I don't want it if it's going to be a shabby port that's inferior to the 360 version. !
