I still don't understand what install base has to do with which system the game is developed on? If one system is capable of producing a better product than what we're getting now, then why not change which system it's developed on?
Are you a game developer? You are acting like you know what you're talking about....

Tell me exactly which first party Ps3 titles were "crap" games?

Actually, according to the devs, the have plenty of issues with memory. Supposedly they can't fit gear(just an example) into the game if they're going to include stadiums or vice versa. Or throw backs take up too much disk space, etc, etc. If the game were developed on the Ps3 these issues wouldn't be issues.
No, they said that they can fit the gear, but they have to free up MEMORY. The PS3 has less than the Xbox. The only thing I've seen Adam talk about in regards to disk space is commentary.

Re: Why Not Develop on The PS3?

How in the hell can you play a 2 disc game? Are you people dumb or something? It pretty much impossible to do a 2 disc game...

Anyhow, the reason why games are developed on the 360 is because it makes the most money, it has better graphics, and frankly its just a better console that easier to develop on, most likely.

And then there's SCEA basketball ... on the PS3 ... and it's on the supposed superior console.

It's not going to happen for the same reason it didn't happen last-gen. The Xbox was largely considered the superior system last-gen and had better graphics, but we Xbox owners had to put up with the games being developed on the PS2 and ported to the Xbox. It created some issues and didn't maximize the Xbox, but the game developers did it because the PS2 sold vastly better. Now you all get the shaft this gen, but don't cry about it. It is what it is.

They could team up with 2K and collaborate on somethings. Oh it would be football gaming heaven. EA wouldn't even have to put NCAA out for the PS3 because it wouldn't sell at all.
Or they could create something comparable to the crapfest that is SCEA Basketball...

Just because The Show is good doesn't mean other Sony sports games would be good because as of right now, Sony has one great game (Possibly the best sports game) and one horrific game (Possibly the worst sports game).

Are there any 360 games with 2 disks? I can't think of any.

Have you played the game? Its not that bad, the faces of the players are pretty good and the commentator is quite good. When comparing it to a 2k or a live its not good but its a great arcade game
