Jaffe On Future: "One Console." Jaffe On Luke Smith: "Smarmy."

Former Kotaku-er, current 1Up-er, Luke Smith has a bang-up interview with game designer David Jaffe. The God of War creator has loads (and we mean LOADS) to say about the future of gaming. Jaffe states:

As a gamer, I kind of miss the 'you can only get it on this system.' There's kind of an excitement that was about that back up until recently. With this new hardware, though, that idea is seems to be going away. Is it really all going to come down to first party now? Or it ultimately going to come to one system? 'Cause 10 years from now there's going to be one system because there's so much more third party software than first party software from any hardware manufacturer. It may not be feasible to make it the war of the first party or the war of the exclusives.

A very open, insightful interview. I mean, Jaffe not only says the PS3 is "expensive," but calls Luke Smith's question "smarmy"! Fireworks ensue.
