Title: Shh "EvilBore Exclusive"
Post by: bluemax on April 11, 2008, 01:32:22 AM: I have a PS3 devkit at work now :D

Also pretty much done with my first shipped PSP title. Was at work late last night as we finished it up for first Sony submission. Some guys are still polishing up network stuff but I'm on to the PS3 for now.

I don't think anyone here will play the PSP game though :(

I am not at Heavy Iron, that being said their name (along with ours and another studio) is on the game. That probably along with what I've already said probably gives you a pretty good clue as to what the game is.

Do you have a 360 developer kit or is your studio a gay?

One guy has two, but I'm pretty sure we are specifically in charge of the PS3 port of this game (since everyone else on the project just has PS3 kits).

I was so excited I had to tell someone and I don't think my bosses read this site. I haven't seen anyone at work read Neogaf (yet) but I know at least one guy in my area reads Qt3.

Yeah some people still make PSP games. This is for what should be a super big movie so I'm hoping it moves some units. Our other PSP title already came out on Wii so I don't know if anyone will care too much, but I certainly hope for our sake that it sells well!

The PS3 project is pretty exciting given who the publisher is.

Crunch wasn't too bad. Last night I was there until 12 and every other night was only till about 9-10pm and I always stuck around until pretty much everyone else was gone. I only went in for 5 hours on the weekend and it was more or less by choice. I was upset that my last assigned bug was not a code problem, such a waste of time.

Things are going quite well. I'm enjoying work and my girlfriend just started an extremely well paying job for her field.

Demi and I would have bought copies if you put our names in the credits.

It would help if I knew your names. As it is the credits are a mile long. The by product of having two different studios work on the game, plus all the movie people, plus the publisher. I did take a camera phone shot of my name in the credits when it finally got put in.

I'll be sure to whore it out when it goes retail. I get an unspecified bonus if it sells well!

One of my coworkers worked at Shiny, he told me he got two fat royalty checks for "Enter the Matrix".

Edit: I was joking, but I just noticed that you said your other PSP title already came out for the Wii. :lol

Oh hey, I know what game you're making(and I'm sorry). If I buy the 360 version for my brother are my hard earned greenbacks going into your pockets? Which ever version gets you closer to making some exciting new ips tell me and I'll buy it day one.

The 360/Wii/PS3 versions help gaf poster M3wThr33 probably. The PSP version helps me.

Supposedly my bosses are interested in doing new IPs and they pitched several that people at our work came up with at GDC and DICE. The trick is of course finding a publisher who is willing to back it.

I'll let you know when our PS3 game is announced. I googled it last night and its only started showing up on Game news sites because the publisher just trademarked the IP. I think based on genre and publisher it could do rather well...

He said take whatever I had heard about the game and multiply it by 2 and its still crappier than that.

good work out of you. doing ports though :-\ You'll make it through. ;)

Port work is better than no work!

We made the top 100 grossing developers in UK for something like the 4th or 5th straight year. This year we were ahead of such notables as:

Ninja Theory
Sony Santa Monica
Retro
Rockstar Vancouver
Atlus

Considering the games we have this year are even better, I certainly think we will move up even higher.

Its the amount of revenue based on sales if I understand the website correctly.
