If a post on the video game blog, Joystiq, is to be believed, there may be some ominous signs for Sony and its forthcoming PlayStation 3 console.
According to the post, rumors are bouncing around Dutch, German and Japanese Web sites that some developers are worried that the PS3 isn’t right for them.
For months, of course, there have been fears that all the next-generation consoles–the PS3, Microsoft’s Xbox 360 and Nintendo’s Revolution–will cost developers a fortune in licensing fees. But there was no reason to think that the PS3 would be any different than the Xbox 360 in that regard.
In any case, Joystiq quotes a Dutch site (in sketchy English) that might sum up the worries of developers: "In the (Japanese) game industry, many people are losing trust in (Sony Computer Entertainment president Ken) Kutaragi’s nonstop pursue of this evolution, people are leaving PS3 at a rate worse than Nintendo’s GameCube era."
