Wir wissen ja alle, dass Bungie auf eine „dunkle Vergangenheit“ zurückblick (Microsoft exklusive Entwickler…und so), doch wie Eric Osborne von der Softwareschmiede in einem Interview erzählt, hat man Sony beim Design der PS4 unterstützt:
“They worked with us, of course, on core systems and the controller itself – making it better for shooters, helping improve that for players, helping include and improve the social aspects of the game, […] We’re building on all four platforms that we’ve announced. We have to make sure that [Destiny] is amazing everywhere, especially as a new IP. We have to earn all these fans,” Osborne said. “But specifically with Sony we have some work to do in terms of awareness and getting people excited about a Bungie game.
[…]
Sony’s been a really good partner all the way back to the beginning when we were first talking next-gen, and when we first started building Destiny […] We really didn’t know where anybody was going, but it became really clear talking with Sony at the outset that their vision really aligned with where we wanted to go.”
Schön, wie Sony neuen Partner auch selbst unter die Arme greift, was aber ein wenig seltsam ist, ist die Tatsache, dass Bungie das Touchpad des PS4 Controllers testete, bei der Menüführung in Destiny dieses Feature allerdings nicht nutzte. Aber vielleicht kommt das ja noch…
