State of PS3 Production

At E3? Are you sure about that?

And what's that game in the second shot? It looks lovely...

 

Warhark

 

Right. Excellent. Well thats very good news then

That game looks to be warhawk.

 

Must be the picture (or my eyes) then. It looks so cartoony...

 

he should share the wealth

 

Probably because quite a few non-game developers get kits to work on production/development software to sell/license to game makers. That and there are a lot of games that haven't been approved by Sony or haven't reached the point where they are given the full green light for production.

 

Yes, there is a lot of middleware available for the PS3, I think I counted 14 applications last - the Playstation 3 Wiki entry has a list. And yes, some developers who get devkits may eventually decide not to produce a game, at least for now. There may also be some wildcards in the form of Linux/PS3 stuff, PS3 third party hardware, etc.

 

PS3 will first use 90nm Cell and then move to 65nm in 2007, right?

 

Yep, same with all the consoles.
