Hirai: Developers Should Use PS3 To Spice Up Their Games

September 3rd, 2007

According to Kaz Hirai, just because Sony doesn’t “buy” exclusivity, it doesn’t mean that developers can’t make the PS3 version of their game the best one.

I think it’s important that third parties use the unique characteristics of the platform to add a little bit of extra flavour to their games. For example, with the PS3, you’ve got the Sixaxis controller, or you could utilise the extra capacity provided by Blu-ray to add more levels, put on interviews with the developers or have your videos able to play in 1080p. I think it’s really important that we talk with third party developers so that they can have these interesting extras in the PlayStation 3 version.

It would be nice to have PlayStation 3 exclusive features in games, but shouldn’t developers already know about features such as Sixaxis? I doubt developers need Sony to hold their hands while they make their games.
