Headline :: Eidos holding back on big PS3 titles

[Steven W]

Eidos won't be unleashing any of their big titles on PS3 until the PS3's installed base grows considerably.

Cant blame them. I reckon the PS3 will be what every kid wants next Christmas. Which sucks for sony seeing as it's only April

Isn't it a paradox like situation though? They could release their finest titles and some of those will convince people to pick up a PS3, or do they wait?

Wating would risk other companies holding back too, therefore giving less people a reason to buy a ps3 and narrowing their customers for their PS3 games.

I'm no expert though, so I'm guessing they made the right choice!

I'd agree with you, it's perfect business sense for them to hold back, but not particularly supportive of the console.

I can't remember if they did the same for Xbox 360?!?!

Don't know if they did, but I know other companies certainly did.

They've made a really wise move. Even they have released those amazing games, they can't make a profit from consumers.
