No Splinter Cell planned for PS3.


scc
Kikizo has an interview with Ubisoft, the developer behind Splinter Cell: Conviction, which is currently a XBOX360 exclusive. They are pitched the question of developing the game for the PS3 and reply interestingly..

Kikizo: So it’s nothing to do with the project being native to Xbox 360, and porting to the PS3 being too much hassle – it’s entirely a question of business.

Masters: Absolutely, yeah. Ubisoft as a company now has a lot of experience with PS3. Our processes, tools, techniques are very well-developed – we could absolutely execute on the PS3 if we had the opportunity, but like I said it was a business decision.

Seems bizarre to me after Ubisoft made great multi-platform titles like Far Cry 2 and Prince of Persia so I see no reason why they don’t invest in the Playstation platform further. I hope there is another reason for this and isn’t the trend for future Ubisoft titles. The full interview can be read here at Kikizo.

    business decision means exclusive rights bought out. Microsoft playing dirty pool.
