Sony: PS3-Exclusive Devs Hitting Console’s “Full Potential”

Michael Denny, Sony’s VP of Worldwide Studios Europe, has said that PS3 developers have now begun to unlock the true potential of the system.

In an interview with Official PlayStation Magazine Denny praised upcoming third-party games – but said that it is the network of in-house talent that is producing the games that truly shine on the PS3.

“A big philosophy behind forming Worldwide Studios is that we can have a network of key first-party developers who are able to share ideas, best practice, thoughts – creatively and otherwise.” said Denny.

Denny illustrated his point by pointing out the relationship between Sucker Punch and Naughty Dog, two of the console’s biggest developers.

“I think the success of these studios is that a lot of them retain their independent views and creativity but lean on each other for support,”

According to the Sony boss the PS3 still has a lot more to offer, not only in untapped potential but also in the form of Move and 3D gaming.

“What’s exciting is that we’re five years into PS3 and developers are really starting to push PlayStation to its full potential… Then you later on top of that Move launching, then you layer onto that the potential of 3D.” said Denny.

“It’s exiting times to be involved in PlayStation” he added.
