This is why The Crew isn't heading to PlayStation 3

Ubisoft clarifies why MMO-racer is hitting X360 but not PS3.

We spoke the Julian Gerighty this week at Gamescom (more on that here), and in other news, the reason why The Crew is not coming to PlayStation 3 at the same time as Xbox 360 has been confirmed.

According to a statement from Ubisoft (sent to Videogamer): "The Crew is originally built for the new generation of consoles so when we made the decision to port it to the previous generation of consoles, we decided to focus solely on the platform closest to the new-gen's technical infrastructure, which is the Xbox 360."

"We are not currently working on a PS3 or Wii U version, we are rather focused on delivering The Crew for Xbox One, PS4, PC and Xbox360 simultaneously on November 11th."

That doesn't necessarily mean we won't get the game on PS3 (or Wii U), but it's obviously not on the agenda anytime soon.
