I think it'd be worse for the industry if developers all focused on making money before making a quality game that works well with the system its made for. Companies that sell out usually end up dissapointing a lot.

Boo hoo. I have no sympathy for the PS3 owner who doesn't get games optimized graphically for their system. For two generations in a row, Sony has made a system insanely difficult to develop for. If you only get 360-level graphics the entire generation and never see the power utilized, I could care less. Sony chose to do that, and if the industry doesn't all give in and start kissing their feet, I'll be happy.
You can make a quality game without optimizing it for one specific system. It might not look like Killzone 2 is at least promised to look, but by having the game sell millions on multiple consoles brings in money, which pays the employees, and gives them profits so they don't need to rush the next game. I'll take that over making the couple million potential buyers on PS3 happy that they have bragging rights on internet message boards.
