    Default Qotw - Ep 241 - Revisit: Open vs Closed Platforms. Advantages, Disadvantages, Preferences?

    We've talked about this before, and now there are new players and some new information.

    So let's talk about it again.

    Open vs Closed platforms.
    What are the advantages?
    Disadvantages?
    Preferences?

    Let us know how you feel about it given the news that it costs $40,000 to release a patch to an XBLA game.

    NOTE: QotW emails and voicemails are almost always read or played on the air. Board posts are sometimes mentioned but usually not read. If you want your voice heard on the cast, send us a voicemail or an email.

    A couple of things that will likely be talked about...
    Ouya
    XBLA charges 40K to release a patch
    That kind of thing.

    Wow, talk about a blast from the past topic. It has to be at least a 2-3 years, maybe more, since you hit this up the last time.

    something like that.
    the playing field has changed a lot since then too... so its a good revisit.
    there are other topics we want to revisit, we just haven't yet.

    Oh, I 100% agree. I seem to remember the last discussion coinciding with or being parallel to the "one console" concept - and this discussion has a lot of different meaning now.

    Nothing wrong with repeating a topic if it's still relevant.
