Bungie working on ps3 game

[Inferno]

Modding is what sets PC gaming apart from console gaming. It's generally what makes it worth the extra effort.

As long as it's cross-platform, I could care less. PS3 really needs to find something (besides Resistance, MAG, and apparently LBP) to attract people. Maybe Bungie could be it.

Metal Gear Solid, Infamous, Killzone, Uncharted, God of War, Heavy Rain. Want me to continue? PS3 just dosn't advertise, Most gaming sites I go to all I see plastered on every ad location is HALO REACH and before that it was HALO 3 ODST. Microsoft has pretty much mastered the art of advertising.

Unreal released there entire Editing kit no long ago for free, Crytex just released Cryengine 3 for educatrional purposes, Valves editing kit has been used for awhile and is constantly updated with each new game release for public and private use. Modding is still a large part of PC gaming and for any company making a PC to not release an Editing Kit is asinine. Even Halo PC is still in a good time of modding, albeit not the best.

The difference between Crytek and Epic is that they base their engines around the fact that they sell them for others to use. For them to release their engines for people to play with is at NO additional work for them to make sure they're fully functional.... and it's a form of advertising for their engine licenses.... Valve is a PC developer rather than a console developer. They seem to LOVE PC gaming, so of course they're going to try to keep it alive, but... you can hardly include a 7 year old game (Halo PC) in with this list of companies that are CURRENTLY helping the modding scene.

Anyhow, normally I'd feel at least a little bad about derailing a thread, or helping to derail it... but the OT is common knowledge that we all knew when Bungie/Activision announced that Bungie would be working on cross platform titles months ago.

The expression is, "Hope for the best; expect the worst." not "Expect the best." That's all I'm saying.

Bungie attempting to appeal to a larger audience in an effort to make money? Egads, what is the world coming to! [/sarcasm]

Now what would be insanely awesome is cross-platform multiplayer, but we all know that won't happen.

This also means that they are planning to release on the current generation of consoles. The game would be releasing towards the end of their lifecycle.

It could for Xbox <-> PC. Shadowrun did it, and both developers have been in cahoots before.

I mean more for PS3 <--> Xbox 360. I'd love to play with my buddies who have a PS3 and no 360.
