P2 developer 7-Studios speaks
Posted by @ 1:55 PM, EST
PSX.IGN posted and interview with 7-Studios about their PS2 strategy RPG game Legion
Here’s a slice:

"IGNPSX: Have you found developing on PlayStation2 to be a problem?

Lewis Peterson: Just listening to the programmers; it's different but I think they have been enjoying it. It's quite different from what they are used to with the PC where there is lots of memory and the actual geometry is less. PlayStation2 is different because there's not so much memory but lots of geometry processing.

We've been hearing a lot of talk about how PlayStation2 is difficult to program [for]. But I don't know what people were expecting. I don't know if they were expecting the Holy Grail out of this. Perhaps they thought it would do everything for you and would be straightforward. But I think that anytime you get new hardware and new technology it's going to be a challenge."
