"Japan's development community shared anonymous thoughts on the PlayStation 3 in the latest issue of Japan's Ge-Maga. The magazine asked developers throughout the nation a number of questions regarding Sony's next generation platform," reports IGN.

Briefly, 90% think it's too expensive, 56% don't like having two hardware models, and "55.82% feel that the PS3 won't sell with the current lineup of announced titles".

The developer reactions also confirm the impression that Sony screwed up at the E3 entertainment trade exhibition:

While 48.54% stated that, following the show, their anticipation of the hardware is unchanged, 32.52% stated that they've become less confident in the platform. Only 3.39% said that they were relieved by Sony's announcements at the show.
