According to PlayStation blog
Three Speech, Sony's bald boy wonder is promising at least 40 games for the PlayStation 3's online service that will kick Xbox Live Arcade's wimpy ass. His pimp hand is especially strong here:
"We’re developing about 40 products that fit that strategy right now,” Harrison continues. “We showed the very first one of those, called flOw, at the Tokyo Game Show for the first time. That got a really, really good response.”
“My strategy was to encourage developers to push the machine technically, creatively, artistically - to innovate in lots of different ways. But don’t be restricted by ghettoising games into a particular genre, or a particular display mechanic, because what we’ve seen on other systems tend to be retro 2D games, and we’re pushing the 3D capabilities of the PlayStation 3. Plus, the fact that every PS3 has a hard disc drive means that we’re not restricted by the size of the download, and that has a huge impact on the kind of game design that you can do.”
I know we all tend not to believe Sony when they make these sort of promising statements, but I, for one, would love to see Sony and others push the limit of online game development. The fact that Sony won't be restricted in size because of an included hard drive is what is most promising.
