- TheBranca18 17y agoConsidering games like fl0wer were made with the PhyreEngine, awesome game by the way, I don't think this is really going to be an issue. I doubt most gaming companies were using the OtherOS feature in order to learn how to program on the PS3, they hopefully have dev kits.
- Keyframe 17y agoOf course game companies have devkits. I'm talking about programmers getting their feet wet before working for a game company.
- migueldeicaza 17y agoDevKits have a notoriously bad development environment. Granted, some things can only be done on the devkit, like access to the graphics card and the Sony graphics API, but doing compiler work or code that targets the SPUs is simply done better from Unix than with the native devkit options.
