Hmm, not sure it'll be that direct an influence, if it has one at all. Sony have gone BSD for a reason, and I assume a large part of that reason is the BSD license, meaning you can build against it, include bits of it, just generally fuck about with it and still keep your source code secret. There's no way Sony are going to publicly release their BSD-targetting libraries, so it doesn't really help devs and publishers who want to port to other platforms.
Ah I see what you mean.
Though it would be a fun way to give MS a kick in the nuts. After all it wouldn't be that different to the easier combination of Xbox / Windows development. In theory Sony could licence access to the libraries to devs.
I know it's a bit late, but here is more information on the subject. Saw this piece and thought to post it here! |
