With numbers that high in a sane world the developers that were fired should have received small bonuses instead of being thrown out like they released unplayable crap.
Sounds amazing I grew up watching Batman Beyond and that theme is ingrained in me, this could be special. It needs to be multiple though unless Sony is forking up money.
@Steel76 "The original founders of Rocksteady, and the developers of the Arkham trilogy, isn't there anymore."
You mean the same guys that made Suicide Squad from scratch and left when it was mostly complete so they could save face? That was their baby regardless if they jumped from the ship as soon as they saw the iceberg.
I still can't believe Sony bought and overpaid for this dumpster fire of a studio which also included all their baggage. I hope Sony wins their case and maybe they can sell this worthless studio to Microsoft or Tencent.
So literally no one's job is safe in the game industry except the people in the top! Actually is even worse than that, they fail and get rewarded for failing with bonuses and golden parachutes!
I've made peace with Bloodborne being added to the abandoned by Sony pile. I'm actually more confident with Bloodborne 2 being made as all that would require is Miyazaki going to Sony and telling them I want to make Bloodborne 2 now, please and thank you.
@UltimateOtaku91 "written off this game because it's a "Sony Live Service" title"
No it was mostly written off because what they showed looked like Ubisoft leftovers, not saying it will be bad but it has an uphill battle trying to win people over (it's trailer was worse received than Concord trailer 😬).
A live service Socom or MAG 2 would get universal praise and excitement, so is not just because of the live service tag. It's just Jim & Hulst didn't know the right IPs to pick.
Okay but would they not show us this in their world premiere? Only showing Sonic characters makes it feel to me like I'm racing karts in a furry convention.
I don't understand is Sony telling us that Days Gone was more successful than Bloodborne? No one was asking for a remaster of Days Gone, officially is a dead franchise (2 got canned) yet it needed a remaster asap?
Can it go back to being a hack and slash like Devil May Cry? I prefer when Kratos was able to Jump, we had a nice story focused fighting system for GOW and Ragnarok but it's time to go back to fast action
I personally don't want it or would ever use it but that doesn't mean they couldn't offer the option for those that do, specifically as there's a couple of RTS games coming from Microsoft.
@Lastochka "Wouldn't even punch it in as ps+ essential offering."
I would punch it in but I would not waste a single minute on it. The game was forgotten the same day it released, this should at least put a stop to any future Lego/Sony colab games.
Actually I would prefer they started freah so I would love for them to remake 1 (or start with 3) and continue from there. DMCV was excellent but Dante in the timeline has gotten too old, we need spunky baby face Dante back.
Now that Microsoft is basically going third party this is the time for Sony to reverse all this PC nonsense and double down on it's console like Nintendo.
If it was a regular game where you can buy it and that's it you can unlock everything at your own pace I think it would have fared better, why didn't they just copy the same model as Smash since they copied everything else?
I feel like I'm getting closer to having Killer Instinct on PS5 which is my most requested Xbox game! who ever said Xbox had no games didn't know anything 🤷🏼♀️ there's big piles of fantastic OG Xbox, 360, Xbone and Series X games that should be experienced!
It was okay but it was my least favorite Quantic Dream game, I feel Heavy Rain and Detroit had better more focused Stories and better characters (they all have the same gameplay so all we can compare is story & characters).
@AdamNovice "Wouldn't be surprised if Arteus is the main character going forward"
I know the Sony execs have been severely out of touch recently but even knowing that there's no way they greenlight an Arteus game which would almost certainly flop or break even best case scenario.
Can we drop the brat off at daycare and get a Kratos focused story? Okay we had a good time babysitting Arteus for two games but it's time to go back to the basics with GOW 1-3 rage filled Kratos!
With Disgust by the sight of misusing one of the best remake studios (Only matched by Capcom) on a freaking multiplayer game!
Also like the other comments I want pissed off Kratos back, I want the GOW 3 Kratos who destroyed anything that moves or even looked at him the wrong way.
Okay but why are we getting two freaking Horizon multiplayer games? and people here get mad (especially Sammy! 🙂) when we say Sony is going to force everyone to love the IP or face consequences!
@Nepp67 "The one game that should get a remake to fix how crap it is."
I don't they will ever remake it, there's nothing redeeming about it. RE5 was also a big departure but at least it had a good story with great characters (Sheva!!) and a completely fresh setting, with a remake they can make 5 scarier 🤞🏼
Easily the biggest POS of the series and the game that's needs to be remade from scratch. It has more in common with Gears of War than RE, at least you could run faster than Flash that's something!
Is not just the fact that they wasted so much resources is that they chose baffling games like Concord, Fairgame$ and GOW when they have actual ips that would translate perfectly to live service.
Socom, Warhawk, Resistance, Killzone, MAG are just a few IPs that are dying to make Sony some of that live service money but that's too easy why not greenlight Concord 2: this time 698 active players!
So now we won't see Bluepoint and Bend till the PS6 😐 Jim Ryan and Hermen really did a number on us, if Xbox wasn't struggling so much all these decisions would have sunk Sony into early PS3 era of failure.
You wasted years of Bluepoint games, the studio that mastered the art of remaking games on a freaking live service GOW game!? The person that greenlit that needs to lose their job and be blacklisted from the industry cause I never seen such stupidity 😒
@K1LLEGAL "I just wish people bought an Xbox if they wanted to play these games"
But is Microsoft who's basically telling us "don't worry guys no need to come here, we'll come to you". Now that they have tons of first party games they decide that they don't want exclusives anymore.
Looks interesting, I can never have too many horror movies and this looks a bit like Happy Death Day which was great. I would have probably named it something else as it has very little to do with Until Dawn.
Isn't this the first time that Nintendo have released a home console that's identical to the previous one just with a few upgrades?
This seems more like the Switch Pro regardless I'm sure it will sell like crazy, Japan will probably have to have a state of emergency and shut down the country.
Making a high quality goty contender would also help increase Ubisoft's value although that's a bit harder than just farting out endless Assassin Creed games 🤷🏼♀️
Halo & Gears will be day one purchases, I hope Killer Instinct is also being considered 🤞🏼 as for Hellblade 2 not even if it was a free PS Plus game, the first one is the slowest most boring game I have ever played.
The brute force comment was definitely uncalled for I hope the barberian who said it feels terrible and apologizes immediately 👀
I personally don't have a problem with more Horizon within reason, when they said they were done with Killzone and all they will be making is Horizon games with no pause for a different IP then yeah that's a problem.
@ChrisDeku Wrong! it's been scientifically proven that only the US and the UK exists, plus both those countries only have 1 games media outlet (NOT hundreds) so how can there be more than 100 goty awards in the world? 🙂
