He's in his 60's and these games take years to make now. He's now in an agreement with Xbox and Sony for two other IPs, so I can understand he might be taking a back seat if another Death Stranding was to be made.
Your article pretty much reflected my experience and feelings on the show. Featuring Shadow of the Colossus and The Last Guardian in their showreel at the start meant later disappointed. But yes, it was definitely a celebration of the last two gens rather than 30 years of Playstation. Have to say, my favourite part what was Astro.
I think in terms of any of the platformers Sony owns, license them out for a AA sized adventure. I'm sure they'd sell well and get interest back in the franchise.
I'd love to see Resistance back for a well done single player adventure. How can Gears of War be making its 5th entry, but Resistance stuck on a trilogy and psp entry.
My hope would be socom or Resistance. Just give me a Division style game but it's an invasion of Resistance's alien race. Taking back landmarks in New York or London. Day one purchase for me
My theory is that with the games and working on the HBO adaptation, he will likely wrap up the story with HBO and can move on to new things like Intergalactic.
I can't tell via the PS app, but I'm almost positive I bought Days Gone in a good sale, and then they announced the PS+ collection. As others say, I don't think I will pay the full price just for this upgrade.
@Orpheus79V Same! I was surprised to see the new game being announced at Game Awards, but I think that announcement has spurred Capcom to release the other games as remasters.
I'm sure they did this before, but we likely won't hear anything more about Wolverine until either Ghost of Yotei or Death Stranding 2 is released, making sure each game gets the maximum amount of eyes on it before Wolverine, or another first party game, gets a release date (more marketing)
If it actually came to be, I would maybe see how live service translates to the God of War world. I am outraged that Bluepoint have now wasted years on something Sony directed them to make. I'm outraged that there are so many IP's in Playstation's graveyard, that they couldn't think one of those was worth resurrecting? Just make a Division style Resistance game, maybe?! Not it had to be God Of War... a purely single player game for the whole of its lifetime.
This was stated back when the issue arose. Phil insinuated this was actually to do with a business transaction and the Xbox fan boys decided this was gospel.
I'm a massive fan of physical media and collect steelbooks and limited editions from boutique labels of movies I've loved growing up and recent gems.
My day one purchases would become fairly infrequent, if physical was taken away. Games costing £60 digital a year after release, compared to a physical copy sitting in cex for £20 or £30, it's really hard to justify going 100% digital.
It's taken casual mode for me to love this game. I tried a number of times to get into playing the original on ps4 and I couldn't get used to the saving system, the timed events and kept giving up. The DRDR version has meant I've finished my first playthrough and ended up in overtime mode. It's been a whole lot of fun to play!
That's crazy that they might be considering it. I'm sure Sony were hoping this game would blossom into an exclusive franchise. I did read they cut exclusive ties with Supermassive when Sony discovered they were trying to shop the mechanics of the game to other publishers. The planned sequel turned into The Quarry and then Supermassive made the shorter Dark Pictures titles.
I would almost be for this in a way, if we knew the trilogy would end on the same platform, so we have Zero Dawn, Forbidden West and the ending all on PS5. Right now, with development times, I'm thinking this is a stop gap for Horizon 3 on PS6.
My interest is minimal for an upgrade though, I played it to death on PS4.
The price is jaw dropping. For shinier graphics and the possibility of not having to flick a switch between performance and fidelity? I will happily stay with the base model until whenever the PS6 shows up. Even then, I hope Sony's ego has been knocked quite a bit. We're back to PS3 level Sony ego! I hate it!
Goddammit Sony, stop building to PS3 era ego! Hardware shouldn't be getting more expensive the further into a generation! I don't care how many consoles you're selling. You are not showing the games, just more expensive hardware...
I understand what some say when we see so many franchises never see the light of day again, but I want to celebrate what has come before, and hope to see them again in the future.

Re: Another PS Plus Premium Classic Game Adds Trophies on PS5, PS4
Great to see it. I'm kind of hoping they'll do a trophy list for Phantom Menace now.
Re: Hideo Kojima Not Planning to Make a Death Stranding 3, But He Has a Concept for It
He's in his 60's and these games take years to make now. He's now in an agreement with Xbox and Sony for two other IPs, so I can understand he might be taking a back seat if another Death Stranding was to be made.
Re: As Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown Passes 2 Million Players, Ubisoft Teases More to Come
I Loved this game and it was such an idiotic decision to shut the studio down.
Don't celebrate something in an empty room.

Re: Oblivion PS5 Remaster Is Real as New Screenshots Leak
It gets to the point where it's like impatient people almost bully companies into announcing a game.
We'll leak it before you're ready to surprise us.
Re: Star Wars Zero Company Is Respawn's Turn-Based Tactics Game, Full Reveal This Weekend
This has my interest. I loved Xcom and Midnight Suns
Re: Talking Point: What Do We Actually Want from the Oblivion Remake?
Graphics. Gameplay. Keep voice acting. Trophies. Perfect.
Re: Over 70% of PS5 Fans Want Sony to License More of Its Dead Franchises Out
I think in terms of any of the platformers Sony owns, license them out for a AA sized adventure. I'm sure they'd sell well and get interest back in the franchise.
I'd love to see Resistance back for a well done single player adventure. How can Gears of War be making its 5th entry, but Resistance stuck on a trilogy and psp entry.
Re: PS5's Onimusha: Way of the Sword Is a Gory, Linear, 20-Hour Action Game, and Basically a Reboot
Very hyped for this one and the 2nd game's remaster. Hoping we get the third and fourth entries to build towards Way of the Sword.
Re: Poll: What Are Your Thoughts on Bloodborne, 10 Years Later?
Unfortunately, it's the only one of its kind. I loved it.
Re: Atomfall (PS5) - British Charm Elevates Riveting Mystery
Preordered from the game collection, so glad to see it's getting great reviews.
Re: PlayStation Employs Bulletstorm Dev to Make New PS5 Game Based on Sony IP
My hope would be socom or Resistance. Just give me a Division style game but it's an invasion of Resistance's alien race. Taking back landmarks in New York or London. Day one purchase for me
Re: Indiana Jones and the Great Circle PS5 Release Date, Pre-Order Info Seemingly Leaked
If all of Microsoft's big titles follow suit of no physical edition, I'll find it tough to pick up any of them.
Re: Preview: Atomfall Proves a Must-Play Mystery on PS5, PS4
I'm very interested in this one and very much considering a day one purchase.
Re: RoboCop Returns in Unfinished Business, a Standalone Rogue City Expansion for PS5
So it's The Raid or Dredd, but you're Robocop...I'm in!!
Re: Rumour: Gears of War's PS5 Debut May Be Missing Multiplayer Modes
I don't mind, I just want the story campaigns and I will be happy.
Re: 'Don't Bet' on The Last of Us 3, Warns Neil Druckmann
My theory is that with the games and working on the HBO adaptation, he will likely wrap up the story with HBO and can move on to new things like Intergalactic.
Re: Free PS Plus Compensation for Recent PSN Downtime Is Being Issued Now
Yep, got mine! I've now got 17 days to buy a bunch of cheap psn credit before my subscription renews, instead of the original 12 days.
Re: Until Dawn Goes Groundhog Day in Rousing New Movie Trailer
Much better second trailer. I think I will give this a chance.
Re: PS Plus Copies of Days Gone Won't Offer Cheap $10 Upgrade to New PS5 Version
I can't tell via the PS app, but I'm almost positive I bought Days Gone in a good sale, and then they announced the PS+ collection. As others say, I don't think I will pay the full price just for this upgrade.

@Orpheus79V Same! I was surprised to see the new game being announced at Game Awards, but I think that announcement has spurred Capcom to release the other games as remasters.
Re: Halo PS5 Rumours Intensify in Aftermath of Forza Horizon 5 Reveal
I'm more interested in a Gears of War collection. Hopefully that won't be long after.
Re: Could Wolverine PS5 Launch in 2025? Insomniac Avoids the Question
I'm sure they did this before, but we likely won't hear anything more about Wolverine until either Ghost of Yotei or Death Stranding 2 is released, making sure each game gets the maximum amount of eyes on it before Wolverine, or another first party game, gets a release date (more marketing)

Re: Full Until Dawn Movie Trailer Reveals New Time Loop, Out 25th April
@Oram77 it's explained that each time someone dies they face a different monster/world
Re: Rumour: Oblivion Remake Isn't Just a Graphics Upgrade, It's a Full Gameplay Overhaul
Would love to see it.
Re: Talking Point: PS5 Saves Video Clips When You Earn Trophies - Do You Leave That Feature On?
I have it selected for only the platinums. You build up too much storage keeping every shot.
Re: The House of the Dead 2 Remake Lives! Launches This Spring 2025
Enjoyed the firat remake, even without the light gun. Would be good if they added Vr support for a better response time.
Re: Rumour: Halo: The Master Chief Collection Coming to PS5 This Year
I think out of any of these, I would pick the Gears collection.
Re: Rumour: Halo: The Master Chief Collection Coming to PS5 This Year
@Mostik I was coming to comments to say the exact same thing. Flight Sim on PSVR2 would be very popular.
Re: Black Myth: Wukong Game Director Confirms There Was No Secret PS5 Exclusivity Deal
This was stated back when the issue arose. Phil insinuated this was actually to do with a business transaction and the Xbox fan boys decided this was gospel.

Re: Resistance's Release on PS Plus Premium Proves There's Still a Fanbase for the FPS
Do we know if Fall of Man will have trophies?
Re: Dead Rising Remaster Adds PS5 Pro Support, Casual Mode
It's taken casual mode for me to love this game. I tried a number of times to get into playing the original on ps4 and I couldn't get used to the saving system, the timed events and kept giving up. The DRDR version has meant I've finished my first playthrough and ended up in overtime mode. It's been a whole lot of fun to play!
Re: Test Your PlayStation General Knowledge - PlayStation Console Special
My first ever 10 out of 10! Wooo!
Re: Ubisoft Disbands Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown Team After Poor Sales, Claims Report
Ubisoft seems to enjoy self sabotage. This was a great game. Shame it didn't meet a CEO's expectation in sales.
Re: SEGA Has Been Quietly Killing It This Year, Regularly Publishing Bangers
Finally seeing an Alien Isolation sequel in development is fantastic news! I just hope it's a direct continuation of the first game.
Re: Until Dawn PS5 Remake's New Ending Leaked, May Hint at Possible Sequel

Re: Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered PS5 Is Official, Out 31st October with $10 PS4 to PS5 Upgrade
I'll take the upgrade. It looks really nice.
Re: Concord Dev Could Close After Director of PS5, PC Disaster Steps Down
@Rambo-kind hello!
Re: Concord Dev Could Close After Director of PS5, PC Disaster Steps Down
One game should not make or break a studio!
Re: Palworld Struck by Nintendo Lawsuit Days Prior to Predicted PS5 Reveal
Did Nintendo fob it off until the rumbling started that Sony was looking to support it? I think so.....
Re: Horizon Zero Dawn's PS5, PC Remaster Is Very Much the Real Deal

Re: PS Plus Premium's TimeSplitters Titles Now All Have Trophies on PS5, PS4
Seems Future Perfect hasn't been updated yet. Just finished a couple of games, so these will be my next Platinums
Re: 13 More Games Join PS Plus Extra, Premium Next Week
The Plucky Squire and Pistol Whip for me!
Re: Talking Point: Is PS5 Pro Way Too Expensive?
The price is jaw dropping. For shinier graphics and the possibility of not having to flick a switch between performance and fidelity? I will happily stay with the base model until whenever the PS6 shows up. Even then, I hope Sony's ego has been knocked quite a bit. We're back to PS3 level Sony ego! I hate it!
Re: PS5 Pro Announced, Costs $700 and Out in November
Welcome back, egotistical PS3 era Sony!
Re: Sony Increases PS5 Controller Prices in US, Europe, and More

Re: Days Gone Director Roasts 'Small Game' Astro Bot PS5 for Deacon St John Cameo
Based on his attitude, I have to assume he'd be posting similar drivel if Days Gone hadn't been honoured at all in Astro Bot.
Re: Soapbox: Astro Bot PS5 Is Not a Graveyard, It's a Joyful Demonstration of Sony's Unique Ability to Reinvent Itself
I understand what some say when we see so many franchises never see the light of day again, but I want to celebrate what has come before, and hope to see them again in the future.
