In an interview with GamePro, Eat Sleep Play founders David Jaffe and Scott Campbell sat down and talked about their future with Sony. Now that they're independent, people have curious if this means they'll break their longstanding relationship with Sony and go multi-platform. They've already mentioned that their next 3 titles will be for the PlayStation 3, but what about after that?When GamePro brought it up, Jaffe had this to say, "Right now in the console space and the handheld space, we want to be partners with Sony as long as they will have us. We have great relationships with Sony and they have been so good to us from both a business standpoint and a personal standpoint, I would like to be on Sony's machines for as long as they'll have me."
Sounds like Jaffe is pretty happy working with Sony indefinitely, and it's great to hear him mention that they're going to be making PSP titles as well. The rest of the interview is pretty interesting also, with insight into why they picked Eat Sleep Play as the name of their company (it wouldn't get them sued) to thoughts on the reviews of Calling All Cars! and casual games in general. Check it out, it's a good read.

He said he'll want to make games on Sony's machine, but he still didn't say whehter he'll make games on other platforms, too. So, he can go multiplatform, and if Sony still wants him, then fine. If not, then he'll be exclusive to the other platforms.

David Jaffe is new Jason Rubin, without all the snarkiness.

Well his next three games which will take him straight into 2009 are exclusives. So he won't be jumping on any other bandwagons until then.
And at that point, PS3 will have a MUCH larger install base. Which was really the only complaint to Calling All Cars.
And Calling All Cars was an awesome game btw =P We got owned in our res's by our dons late at night from mass swearing and shouting and screaming ahahahah. MUCH MUCH MUCH worth that measly price =P
I like Jaffe a lot. He knows exactly what he wants, and he does it well. And he's not afraid to voice out his opinions. REALLY looking forward to his next game.
