Timegate CEO Adel Chaveleh believes that digital distribution will grant developers more freedom and control over their own IP’s.
”Digital (Distribution) is a path for empowerment and an alternative to the traditional distribution model where a small group of people control the tollway to the consumer,” he told Gamasutra.
“Think of how many developers have complained that somewhere between finishing the product and getting it into their consumer, something went wrong or they didn’t have control.”
Timegate recently had to resort to Digital Distribution with the PS3 release of their Sci-fi shooter Section 8, during the whole money-crisis with SouthPeak.
