Interview with Scott Berfield
Gamespot Australia did a recent interview with Scott Berfield, Account Manager for Developer Relations for the Xbox. A couple of the things that were discussed were the X-Box Incubator and the Independent Developer, viruses for the Xbox, games that are being developed for the Xbox, and much more! Heres a small sniplet of the interview..
GS: Will there be shareware titles for the X-Box?
SB: I dont think so. Because it is a closed platform and things have to be certified and signed. We have an issue because we have the hard disk in there, we have to be very secure. It is a game console, just like any other game console, it doesnt have the concept of downloading and installing a product. That could be a nightmare on a game console with a hard disk in it. (laughs)
Head on over to Gamespot Australia for the full interview.
