but in terms of developers yeah they worked primarily on the 360 first. If you read up alot on the newest games coming out multi platform they are now doing seperate developments aka. no 360 design then port. or their making it on the ps3 first and then porting to 360. and that trend will continue on.
heres why they first had problems.
sony has different lvl development kits for making games on the ps3. alpha, beta, and i believe they called the last one gamma instead of theta.
basically SCEA got the alpha kits, and then BIG companies got the beta and small developers got the gamma. Of course the alpha is the best and easiest to use with the most tools and so other compnaies had a few issues. But now sony gives every developr the full alpha set. like with GTAIV. one reason for it being pushed back was that sony gave them a upgraded dev kit and they reworked alot of it.
The companies who were having small problems jnow have a better kit to use and are redoing some of their coding. THus the delays in recent games as sony gave this to people about 1.5 to 2 months ago. and to GTAIV dev team earlier and thats where they saw the advantage to do so.
Going forward if everyone gets the alpha kit, and sony now also sends dev teams to these places to help if needed, were not gonna see many problems at all and as they become more comfortable with the coding the games will of course get alot better.
I have hope for killzone 2, i saw the video's and game play video's and it seriously looks amazing. The details, physics, etc look wicked.
