Yah it was disappointing to see the PS2 maxed out so early on with DoA2 Hardcore.

Oh nevermind. I read it wrong. Looks like both the 360 and PS3 are great consoles for hardware lovers.

I like how you can see his opinion on playstation slowly change in each interview, he went from xbox only, to 'PS3 is fine but I'm not going to do anything with it, thats another team,' and now "PS3 has piqued my interest" and "is a bit more powerful then the 360."
I think he means its more like traditional console development, where the programmers use tricks and special techniques to get every last bit of power out of the machine, instead of like programming for PCs(Which it seems like he's saying X360 is like.) A good example of "cheating" would be Shadow of the Colossus, if you read the article on the tech you would see a lot of the tricks they use to get the most out of the ps2.Dahbomb said:

Cheating, or "hacks" as they are more affably referred to in the development community, is a way to do something that may not be specified in a software library or done in hardware automatically. Basically, flexible CPUs afford more "cheating/hacking" capability. By using hacks, you can pretty much do anything in software or use hardware in a way in which it originally wasn't intended to be used. This is how the PS2 was able to do things later in its life that no one thought possible given the hardware limitations.

Basically you get creative with the hardware. "Cheating" or "hacks" really seems to give off a negative connotation when it's really the opposite in game making when it's all said and done.

I honestly don't think Itagaki cares which console his games are on, as long as someone enjoys them. The more, the merrier, I suppose.

No. He just realizes that his caviar diet and sports car fettish will be satiated largely through NG: Sigma for the PS3 and NG2 for the X360.Mac the KNife said:

What the hell does xenophoblic mean? Where did it come from? Xeno?

I think xenophobic is a term for hating anything that isn't from your home country, like how Japanese people stereotypically reject non-Japanese people.mckmas8808 said:
I don't buy that argument, though. The iPod is outselling whatever Sony is selling over there, anyways.

Its not about being Xenophobic. Japanese consumers (developers in this case) will support an "outsider"'s product if it appeals to them (ex: Apple's iPod).
Everything i've read about Japanese game development says programmers over there prefer to build everything from the ground up, rather than using tools and middleware.
Xbox360 is heavily tied to MS' Direct-X API and XNA.
PS3 has tools and middleware to be sure, but real rewards come from going "down to the metal".
Its much more a difference in work philosophy rather than Xenophobia, which is just a nice way of saying "Racist".
Greek words ξένος (xenos), meaning "foreigner," "stranger," and φόβος (phobos), meaning "fear." The term is typically used to describe fear or dislike of foreigners or in general of people different from one's self.mckmas8808 said:

Well, not really wrong in this context...only wrong about the specificity of the derrivation of "xeno".

from gamespot rumors article.
The official story: Tecmo reps did not respond to requests for comment. However, Itagaki himself professed his Xbox 360 loyalty in an interview on GameTrailers.com, in which he talked about how he has little to do with Sigma, which is being produced by his Team Ninja associate Yousuke Hayashi.
"People who are supporters of Xbox should view this as a good thing," he said. "What I've done is pass the baton over to someone else. I can focus even more of my attention on making new games for the Xbox 360. ... My home base is the Xbox 360, and I'm going to continue to make games [for it] at the same pace, if not faster."
As for which games, Itagaki would only say that after he finishes Dead or Alive Xtreme 2, "my next game is going to be what everyone's expecting."
Itagaki is staying with 360...awe yeah!

Really wish he would get into technical details, "obstinate" and "cheat" are very vague.
That's exactly what I got out from it. I mean I respect the developers of SOTC very highly for being able to achieve what they did on the PS2. Do I consider them cheats for doing so? Certainly not.HomerSimpson-Man said:
If a developer has to "cheat" to bring one of the best experiences on next-gen consoles, then I will follow.
