Jaffe's opinions swing only to the extremes so I am taking this with a pinch of salt. I would love to see some God of War Ragnarok and if Capcom have the next Resident Evil to show off or Dino Crisis remake.
@JustPlainLoco I would love to see Sunset Overdrive released on PS5. Insomniac are absolutely killing it right now and I am there for it or a Resistance Renaissance!
Yeah, I'm sick of rumours, possibilities, job listings leading to make believe what if games and just general maybes. I am so tired of Sony's silence and they need to change that pronto.
Is it more or less blatant marketing than Sony BluRay on a billboard in the middle of Times Square during a fight with Electro in the Amazing Spider-Man 2...? haha
Hades is phenomenal and so addictive right now. I love it. Prefer it over Returnal and Dead Cells right now, but those are my games just now haha I must hate myself.
They delayed a TEASER two months and then only noticed a graphical glitch within 12 minutes of said teaser launching. (estimating 12 minutes as that is when they tweeted "Are you ready?") Turns out they weren't. But I don't understand how they could work on it for 2 months and not have it ready....A TEASER! This isn't even a full trailer, this isn't even a full gameplay video, this is a teaser!
Last of Us Part 2 is inevitable for a "directors cut" but it's a silly name for them. Last of Us Part 2 will have the factions add on but I doubt anything else in the main story. I would love to see more from the scars faction though.
We all want one but inevitably they won't do one. I wish they would because we hardly know anything beyond a couple of titles for 2022 and that's only cause they got delayed. A blog isn't a place to get all the info on new releases or announcements. State of Plays featuring more than one game is the step in the right direction. But I want a big show and multiple deep dives and trailers.
Moss Book 2 peaked my interest. Loved Death Stranding and looking forward to the directors cut. The State of Play was fine, they did what they said they would and I just hope there's another one sooner rather than later.
August 6th is next rumoured date. Popped up even before this July 8th State of Play was rumoured. Hopefully more first party reveals and not just updates. Kinda want to see what 2022 is looking like.
Wow that is such a disappointment after the last month or so. Not a great response from Sony after near silence. Great, I love the look of Deathloop, I'm there. You don't need to show me anything more, and what else more needs to be shown really? Indie showcase - but I heard Sony hates indies? 🤣 I hope this one video states there will be a state of play each month for the rest of the year, cause I am so disappointed at the sound of that line up. Guess I need to hope 21 minutes is enough to change my mind
Great that it has been announced! Surprised it's an expansion rather than standalone. This has pretty much dashed my hopes for a new State of Play for the announcements, but I guess this was one that was leaked awhile ago so it might still happen without this one. That upgrade and price path is god awful though.
Very excited to see what they will do with Spider-Man 2. Commendable that they keep updating and improving their released games, but I guess it is a testing ground for what will come next for them.
P.S. Sunset Overdrive Remastered if you can, please!
Seriously though, being self employed, I am multiple jobs in one, including promotion. So yes, Sony's "demands" don't seem too much as you should be doing all that anyway. Write a blog and make platform specific trailers because you need to. Sony isn't going to do all that for you, even if they like you.
I like Bloober's stuff, and if anything - this confirms one rumour that was floating around, and in part might confirm another - that Konami are working with a prominent Japanese developer to reboot the Silent Hill franchise. Fingers crossed this is leading to an announcement from Sony. Saw one website say 8th July for their rumoured showcase. With Housemarque, Ghost of Ikishima, Bloober's Silent Hill, Kojima's Death Stranding Director's Cut and other leaks coming out, I think we are in for a really great show from Sony.
@Divergent95 Absolutely. "We see you've done some extra work on this free thing we got, can we have it again for free?" That's not a good deal. Have it off with Sony as they didn't broker a deal with the studio for the PS5 version.
@GamingFan4Lyf Yeah because it's not a lot of work. From what I understand it, PS5 versions need a whole new standalone game application, rather than a simple update for the Xbox version to take full advantage of the Xbox series X system. They are having to work with the integrated SSD and the Dualsense haptic feedback to make full use of the PS5. That isn't done in just an update, unfortunately.
Can people stop comparing PS+ to Game Pass, when this is a Games with Gold comparison... Yes we got Greedfall PS4 for free. Should we get the free upgrade when another paid subscription is getting it? No. They are paying monthly for the most up to date games, we are paying for online multiplayer with bonus offerings. Hassle Sony to make PS Now more competitive instead.
Great to see Housemarque join the Sony family. It was inevitable! Also that slip up on JP's social media means Bluepoint ain't far behind! Exciting times ahead! Returnal was fantastic and I would love to see Bluepoint tackle something that they will build from the ground up. Fingers crossed this is leading to a State of Play show.
Right here is my theory! Nuare have worked with Kojima in the past, they are working on this game with Hasan from Blue Box Studios, because Hasan is working on the game since he joined Kojima Productions Amsterdam!! Kojima wanted to make this new game in secret, like he did with MGS V, and Hasan stepped forward with "I have this inactive studio account and social media channels that you could use to work on this game in plain sight". This is it! We will find out tomorrow, but this is my theory! Aahhhhh! I DID IT!! I'M SO EXCITED!
I would love this to be a Resistance reboot! Release the trilogy remaster as well! Release ALL THE INSOMNIAC GAMES! Give us Sunset Overdrive while you're at it. I am there!
I am glad he has made the video and they can now put this to bed. But then Kojima Productions had to go and like the video on Twitter and this has sparked fresh theories that the guy is an actor.
Ratchet & Clank is incredible, but Returnal is a brilliant kick to the nuts in terms of addictive gameplay. Picked Resident Evil as well cause I just love the series and this was a great entry.
@TooBarFoo I think it's just a term usually attributed to movies that Kojima has chosen because of his reputation. Could have gone with Extended Edition as well. Hopefully the expansion is quite substantial, as I wouldn't mind leaping into this with PS5 upgrades.

@Batesy125s oh that made me chuckle! 🤣 Still, what the hell was that waste of time!?

As long as we don't get a video of a dev team exploring how to make a catapult then this should go okay!

Re: TT Games Founder Reckons Insomniac Games Misled Fans with Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart
I'm sure it could have been done on PS3 in a cutscene.

Re: Sony Completes Acquisition of Anime Giant Crunchyroll
Does that mean Crunchyroll will stop offering three months of game pass for free if you sign up to crunchyroll?
Re: Horizon Forbidden West Delayed to 2022, Says New Report
If it's confirmed, that's fine. Doesn't bother me waiting a little more time, and still got games to finish in the mean time.
Re: PlayStation Console Exclusive Kena: Bridge of Spirits Delayed to September
Totally fine with that. Day one for me but happy to wait for the day it is ready. Still got a backlog to get through haha

Looking forward to picking this up!
Re: Sony Issues Sales Updates for Major PS5 Games, Most Exceed One Million
Considering the install base, Returnal's sales are very good for a Roguelike.
Re: Poll: Should Sony Do More PS5 Director's Cuts?

Re: Dead Space Remake Confirmed for PS5 in Super Short Teaser
All you had to do EA was release a remastered trilogy and take out the microtransactions of the third game. I am not so interested in a remake.
Re: FIFA 22 Officially Revealed, and It's All About HyperMotion Gameplay Technology
That's great, I was worried the yearly release would abruptly cease to be and the world would end.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 384
Making it slowly through Spider-Man Remastered.

Re: Cutesy Mouse Quill Is Back in PSVR Sequel Moss: Book II
This was a lovely surprise

August 6th is next rumoured date. Popped up even before this July 8th State of Play was rumoured. Hopefully more first party reveals and not just updates. Kinda want to see what 2022 is looking like.

Beat the 3rd and 4th Biome in Returnal. Working on the 5th now. I love this game!
Re: Random: PlayStation Fans Start Petition to Cancel Hideo Kojima's Rumoured Xbox Game
This is sad if it is being serious. Also it's just a rumour. Can we petition Sony to make a new State of Play though? 🤣
Re: Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut Bundles in New Island Expansion, Coming to PS5 and PS4
Great that it has been announced! Surprised it's an expansion rather than standalone.

@Reeneman Yeah it's absolutely great that they are improving things and it isn't just done at the shipping date.

Re: Sony Acquires Dutch Developer Nixxes to Beef Up First-Party Tech Support
@Areus Yes! I think as Xbox have their own dedicated team that Playstation should have theirs, helping devs release the PS5 upgrade quicker.

Re: PS5 Game Abandoned Now Proving Its Outsourcing Studios Exist
Right here is my theory! Nuare have worked with Kojima in the past, they are working on this game with Hasan from Blue Box Studios, because Hasan is working on the game since he joined Kojima Productions Amsterdam!!

Re: Abandoned Dev Appears on Camera to Denounce Silent Hill, Hideo Kojima Speculation
I am glad he has made the video and they can now put this to bed. But then Kojima Productions had to go and like the video on Twitter and this has sparked fresh theories that the guy is an actor.
Re: Rumour: Unannounced Dead Space Game Is a 'Reimagining', Not a Sequel
I loved Dead Space 1 and 2. If they came out with a remaster of trilogy along with this reboot I would be very happy!
Re: Poll: What's Your Favourite PS5, PS4 Game of 2021 So Far?
Ratchet & Clank is incredible, but Returnal is a brilliant kick to the nuts in terms of addictive gameplay. Picked Resident Evil as well cause I just love the series and this was a great entry.
Re: Death Stranding Director's Cut Rating Specifically Mentions Stealth Takedowns
@TooBarFoo I think it's just a term usually attributed to movies that Kojima has chosen because of his reputation. Could have gone with Extended Edition as well. Hopefully the expansion is quite substantial, as I wouldn't mind leaping into this with PS5 upgrades.
