When people think about a gaming system, they think about games as being the core focus for the console, but one developer believes the Xbox 720 will not be as focused on games as some people may want it to be.
According to a report from IGN on Friday, Jonathan Blow, the independent game developer behind "Braid," talked about how he thinks Microsoft looks at what a gaming system should be about.
"To me[,] they talk about a console that is not strictly about games.
"It’s trying to be the [center] of the living room device, which is fine and maybe it’s the right thing for Microsoft to do, business-wise.
"I don’t know; I actually don’t think it is, but they’ve certainly thought about it more than me!" Blow said.
Blow went on to discuss some of his experiences with Microsoft and how they haven't always been the most positive.
"I’ve had a bad time working with Microsoft in the past. Maybe not super bad, but a moderately bad time in terms of business relationships.
"Other developers who are friends of mine have had a horrible time, so the idea of signing up again with Microsoft isn’t something I’d have ruled out, but there’s a certain amount of dread I have about doing that again," Blow said.
