Two days ago, we ran a piece titled Insomniac: No One Can Handle The PS3 Like We Do, in it, Ted Price was quoted as saying he thinks Insomniac developers handled the “PS3′s SPUs more effectively (in my opinion) than anyone else in the business”.
Here’s the exact quote taken from EGM:
“First and foremost, I think we have a world-class engine team,” Ted Price, Insomniac Games boss told EGM magazine in a recent interview. “In particular, they focus heavily on using the PS3′s SPUs more effectively (in my opinion) than anyone else in the business.”
Later adding: “However, we spent a lot of time going back and reworking systems we had just barely finished in time for the PS3 launch.
Whenever you have a chance to revisit tech, it’s a great opportunity to improve things,” Price continued, “basically everything got a facelift and it allowed us to do more with our visuals, audio and gameplay.”
Price, however, said he was misquoted and thought he’d respond to the situation on Insomniac Games blog. And although he admitted that he was a bit upset at first, he realized it’s the right of free speech we have it this country that allows us to express ourselves freely in the media.
Insomniac Games community manager, Paul Featherstone, even came here on this thread to clarify the situation. But instead of making one big ugly mess with confusion, Mr. Price, in what to me is one of the most generous displays of humility, decided to make a positive out of the negative and rally gamers against the California law sitting at the US Supreme Court now.
He’s thoughts past the jump.
