Sony Unveils Details About PlayStation 3
by noteworthy at 9:41 am EDT, May 17, 2005

Because of the complexity of the new games and the longer development time needed, Mr. Tretton expects development costs to rise to more than $20 million for PlayStation 3 games, from the typical $10 million to $15 million today.

For those keeping score, Sony's estimate of per-game costs for next-generation systems is substantially higher than Microsoft's.

I for one an a fan of Xbox for one major reason - Xbox Live.

Sure many PS2 games support online play - but it's all decentralized. Whereas, with Live - it's all integrated into the system, and all Live games support VOIP. XBox360 is gonna' make that even cooler with video as well.
