Forget hand held
Case in point: I want to play it on handheld.
Hexagram wrote:Well this is why they should have more than one team. That being said, NGP isn't out for so long the PS3/Xbox 360/Games for Windows version will probably already be out by the time they start development for that platform - assuming it's not just a straight port of the PS3 version anyway.Jensonb wrote:I didn't say forget handheld and I wouldn't mind a decent iPhone version.

Vanilla-Bear wrote:Agree, I think that the hand held versions are of poor quallity and also the Wii version is a massive FAIL. I understand that you [JB] want to play handheld but what we are sayign is the CORE versions IE Xbox + PS3 are the more domiannt version with powerful engines powering the games. Which is a more dominant market, The figures would surely show better sales in Xbox & PS3 rather than handheld. Wouldn't you prefer more for your cash if they could ditch handheld and spend more time on the CONSOLE version? If it mean;t better graphics, better feel & realisticness.Well when you look at these sales figures the potential for massive sales are actually in the Wii and DS.
I am studying gaming at the mo and you have no idea what goes into it!

And then the overall sales:
F1 2009 (Wii) - 0.81m
F1 2009 (PSP) - 0.36m
F1 2010 (X360) - 0.70m
F1 2010 (PS3) - 0.98m
F1 2010 (PC) - 0.02m
It is pretty clear to see where the money well spent is, even if you make a simpler version of the game that doesn't cost as much to build.
I finished my degree in Games Development 2 years ago, so let's not start getting ahead of ourselves VB. I understand you want the fully blown experience but the business end of things always comes first and what the consumer wants.

I just think the Wii & other low level graphic systems are poorly developed....
