In an interview with Edge Jonathan Blow, currently working on the PS4 timed-exclusive The Witness, explained what the PS4 is all about:
“I do think they realize that downloadable games are going to be bigger than they ever have been, and I think they realize that part of success in that area is having developers who are making the most interesting games want to be on their platform.”
He also expressed his reluctance to work with Microsoft again:
“I’ve had a bad time working with Microsoft in the past,” he continued. “Maybe not super bad, but a moderately bad time in terms of business relationships. Other developers who are friends of mine have had a horrible time, so the idea of signing up again with Microsoft isn’t something I’d have ruled out, but there’s a certain amount of dread I have about doing that again.”
He is however currently happy working with Sony:
“I don’t have that with Sony. Who knows, maybe it’ll turn out to be just as bad at the end! But I don’t think so. The people we’re talking to on a daily basis there are just really good people, and we’re happy to work with them. We’ll see how it goes.”
