Epic Games Co-founder: Xbox Silence at GDC 2013 “More Perception Than Reality”

At GDC 2013 especially, Microsoft was chastised for its “continued silence” in the face of so many reveals and demos for the PlayStation 4.

On their so-called “silence”, Epic Games co-founder Mark Rein has a different take. “I think that’s more perception than reality.

“Microsoft has always been very developer centric with all of their platforms and that Sony is embracing that approach is wonderful. But I don’t think it diminishes what Microsoft is doing.

“I don’t think with developer relations anyone is trying to be public, it’s just you’re at GDC and Sony has the hardware to talk about, and Microsoft hasn’t talked about it publicly yet.
