Porting to the Playstation 3 - A farcry away from the Xbox 360?
It's a widely known "fact" amongst the gaming community that the Playstation 3 isn't exactly the easiest platform to develop for, but relatively speaking, the Xbox 360 is, large in part to its computer like architecture. And by the sounds of things, Ubisoft, the developers of the upcoming shooter, Far Cry 2, have also encountered a similar snag. Kotaku reports that the Playstation 3 port of the game has a team of 14 dedicated to the sole purpose of porting the game, that’s in stark contrast to the Xbox 360's team of just 3. It seems the Playstation’s “unique” architecture is to blame.
