Re: So you guys want specifics on game design eh..

In Response To: Re: So you guys want specifics on game design eh.. (psychophan7) : It's sort of what I do. : It's still possible to get indie games out there onto consoles. I know of : indie titles on WiiWare and XBLA, and I've talked (very briefly) with some : of the guys behind them about game development. I'm told it's actually : really easy to develop for those two platforms, but finding a publisher is : more difficult. The publishers to a lot to support the console companies, and vice versa. It'll always be in the publisher's best interest to make sure that their games stay dominant on whatever consoles they're targeting. Making really good games and competing with an open market is hard and risky-- making deals with the console guys is pretty easy and safe. There won't be any sort of popular semi-open game market on any big-name console, trust me. PC gaming, of course, is free from all of this. Want to make a game and distribute/sell it? Go for it. Nothing's in your way. : Besides, there are a lot of IDEs (or SDKs? I don't know what I'm saying) out : there for free nowadays, like Unreal Engine 3 and Unity3D . That ought : to help breathe new life into indie devs. On the PC. Which may be going the way of the dinosaur.
