James Stevenson of Insomniac Games, developer of Resistance and much more, has said the PlayStation 3 has ”a very high ceiling”, with it still feeling ”like a young system”.
The platform is ”finally hitting its prime,” with lower price and sales picking up. We won’t ”see the PS3 really maxed” at least for a couple more years. Can always be ”more efficient”.
”There’s always ways we can become more efficient. The PlayStation platforms are built with a very high ceiling and I think that’s part of the success Sony has had in creating these platforms with really long life spans,” Stevenson tells CVG.
”The first couple of years are all about developers getting games up and working. You see what Naughty Dog has had the chance to do in the past two years. You’ve seen what we’ve been able to do in that time. This is where it gets exciting.”
”The PS3 still feels like a young system and I feel like it’s finally hitting its prime. You’ve got the Slim, it’s at a good price point now and sales are really picking up,” he continued.
”I still think you’re not going to see the PS3 really maxed out for another two to three years. We’re using all of the PS3 right now, but you can always be more efficient in the way you use it.”
Insomniac’s latest game, Ratchet and Clank Future: A Crack in Time, goes on sale exclusively for the PlayStation 3 November 6th. Check out the teasing trailer below.
