After almost four weeks in offline mode, the PSN outage isn’t only affecting people who want to co-op Portal 2 – it’s also affecting developers. And if Sony doesn’t make nice somehow, they’re going to risk losing them.<\/p>\n
That’s according to PixelJunk dev Q-Games’ Dylan Cuthbert, who tells IndustryGamers <\/a>that, “At the moment I think they are running around patching holes etc., and in a week or two they’ll have something more concrete to say. <\/p>\n “I have no idea yet what Sony are going to do to help developers such as ourselves but I have a feeling they are thinking about doing something or they will lose developers which of course is pretty bad for them.”<\/p>\n His company was feeling the burn after just a week too. <\/p>\n “PSN being out definitely affects our bottom line, but as long as the people who were going to be playing Shooter 2 and other PixelJunk titles will get right back in there playing them when it comes back up we’ll be happy and hopefully income won’t be dented too much,” he told the same site<\/a> back in the good old days when the shutdown wasn’t going to be a month long.<\/p>\n Capcom’s Christian Svensson recently claimed that the outage has cost his company “hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars”.<\/p>\n There is currently no confirmed date for the PSN to go live again, although Sony said last night that it’s going to be “at least a few more days” before it happens.<\/p>\n
