Damn, Sony is really getting dunked on with having an iconic series of their Platform be potentially exclusive to their biggest Rival. Thats what happens if you get too comfortable
@OrtadragoonX They dont, one of the Devs on Twitter said that he hopes he and everyone else will land on their feets again. Since well, they were all layed off
@SurgicalMenace You know that this is a unlogical comparsion right? The better one is how Miyamoto said that with success of Games like Mario and Zelda they could continue the Pikmin series (even tho those always sold poorly). Thats also how Sony did it, Shawn Layden even spoke about this after he left SIE
@SurgicalMenace If you put profits over everything you will end up as creatively bancrupt as Ubisoft and co lmao. An gazillion Seller like GoW R can easily fund smaller Games like Concrete Genie and more. Thats how Nintendo does it with great success and Sony did before the PS4
@get2sammyb Well they could build up a new one with all the Devs that left Bioware, Bethesda and so on over the years lol. Obsidian was a small start up Studio too once. Other than that...well CDPR, Larian Studios...
Wish they would buy even a single Studio that could develop a western RPG for them. Since, you know, most of the biggest IPs in that Genre wont ever release on Playstation again
@Fuzzymonkeyfunk There are already multiple Game Maker on PC that are just as easy to use. Without the option to sell the Games you make this would have still flopped on PC
Good riddance. MM wasted 10 years on a Game that was just destined to fail. Should have just stayed with their one and only massive hit IP instead of outsourcing it
Of course, after all they stated that they arent in the Handheld Mode anymore. Everyone who actually thought it was a proper Handheld is just naive lol. If you want to play First Party Games on the go just get a Steamdeck.
@nomither6 Its basically official lol. Also all future Playstation Games come to PC anyway so you dont rly need to buy a PS Console to play Spider Man Games anymore
People thinking this is a new Handheld lmao. Jimbo said clearly that they arent in the Handheld market anymore and they support the Steam Deck. If its anything than a streaming device. Or those earbuds I
Saw rumoured a while ago.
@themightyant He meant on Playstation obviously. Because some of the most talked about Indies are skipping PS atm. Like Valheim, Vampire S., Slime Rancher, Rouque Legacy 2 and so on
They have a very long way to go for this. Nintendo has a huge Fanbase that loves Indies and a very popular Indie Direct Show, Xbox has Gamepass, a Store that features Indie Games for free and Sony has...eeeh not much so far. Not suprised that many Indie Devs still skip Playstation for the other Consoles.
Shu is also over 60 already so he wont be at Sony for long now. And I doubt someone better will come afterwards
Should have made another Handheld instead Imho. I can see them drop VR2 First Party Support fast again. It already barely had any releases from Sony at launch

Re: Mortal Kombat 1 Announced for PS5, Out 19th September

Re: Concrete Genie Developer PixelOpus Is Shutting Down
@Fighting_Game_Loser No they arent lol. And the Game you mentioned was developed by Foam Sword Games and published by Double Fine. Not MM
Re: Former PlayStation Boss Saddened by PixelOpus Studio Closure
@UltimateOtaku91 Nope, a Dev wrote about how he hopes that he and everyone else can land on their feet again because their future is uncertain

Re: Concrete Genie Developer PixelOpus Is Shutting Down
@Tharsman I dont think they had any big plans in the first place lol. Like...do they even remember they launched the VR2 in March?
Re: Concrete Genie Developer PixelOpus Is Shutting Down
@Rmg0731 DLC sales from Little Big Planet kept the Studio alive during the Dreams development lol, this was a massive IP

Re: Concrete Genie Developer PixelOpus Is Shutting Down
@Sam_ATLUS Herman and Ryan remembered that they are allergic to Games that arent CinematicTM or GaaS probably
Re: Concrete Genie Developer PixelOpus Is Shutting Down
But yes Herman, please invest hundreds of Millions into GaaS Games that will shut down in a year lmao
Re: Concrete Genie Developer PixelOpus Is Shutting Down
Sony boasting record breaking profits and closing yet another Studio. Not a dime better than EA and ActiBlizz lol. Media Molecule will be next.
Especially sad since then only Studio making AAAA Games will be left.

Re: PS5 Firmware Update Has Fixed an Overlooked PS4 Backwards Compatibility Issue
@AFCC No, none of those PS2 Games with issues were ever patched
Re: PS5 Firmware Update Has Fixed an Overlooked PS4 Backwards Compatibility Issue
@ManifoldCuriosity Okage at least is still broken lol, just tested it
Re: PS5 Firmware Update Has Fixed an Overlooked PS4 Backwards Compatibility Issue
Too bad this Game wasnt Important enough for Sony to get an PS5 Patch to run at 4K 60 FPS. The performance Mode just looks so much worse
Re: Marvel's Spider-Man 2 Gets a Comic Book Prequel, Out This Weekend

I thought you cant fight an CMA decision? Not sure tho. Anyway, unexpected. Especially after the NY Post article yesterday
Re: Surprise! Guerrilla Games Pretty Much Confirms Horizon 3
Not a fan of endless Sequels tbh. Especially since Guerillas output is already quite low
Re: Sony's Long Anticipated PS5, PS4 Showcase Could Be Scheduled for May
Watch them not have an Event at all and just randomly drop the Trailers again
Re: Sony Acquires Firewalk Studios, New Team Behind Innovative Multiplayer IP
@get2sammyb Well they could build up a new one with all the Devs that left Bioware, Bethesda and so on over the years lol. Obsidian was a small start up Studio too once. Other than that...well CDPR, Larian Studios...

Re: Reaction: Dreams Losing Support Is a Sad End to PS4's Most Unbelievable Project
Just another step into the futute of Playstation were risky, more niche Games will sadly have no place in anymore.

Re: Random: Sony Shoehorns PS5 Ad into Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse Trailer
@nomither6 No lol. Games will come to PC faster and faster. Miles took 2 years, Returnal 1,5, Tlou1 Remake 6 months...
Re: Random: Sony Shoehorns PS5 Ad into Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse Trailer
@nomither6 Its basically official lol. Also all future Playstation Games come to PC anyway so you dont rly need to buy a PS Console to play Spider Man Games anymore

Re: Shuhei Yoshida Wants to Change the Way Indie Developers Perceive PlayStation
@themightyant He meant on Playstation obviously. Because some of the most talked about Indies are skipping PS atm. Like Valheim, Vampire S., Slime Rancher, Rouque Legacy 2 and so on
Re: Shuhei Yoshida Wants to Change the Way Indie Developers Perceive PlayStation
@GorosBat Well Slime Rancher 2 and Valheim have exclusive Deals with MS so they woundnt have launched on PS anyway
Re: Shuhei Yoshida Wants to Change the Way Indie Developers Perceive PlayStation
@GorosBat They had Early Access Games on there for quite a while tho. TemTem launched in EA and so did that new Disney Game, MultiVersus and so on
Re: Shuhei Yoshida Wants to Change the Way Indie Developers Percieve PlayStation
They have a very long way to go for this. Nintendo has a huge Fanbase that loves Indies and a very popular Indie Direct Show, Xbox has Gamepass, a Store that features Indie Games for free and Sony has...eeeh not much so far.

Shu is also over 60 already so he wont be at Sony for long now. And I doubt someone better will come afterwards

Re: Atelier Ryza 3: Alchemist of the End & the Secret Key (PS5) - Huge RPG Is Familiar But Charming
How is the performance? Ryza 2 had a very unstable Framerate if you didnt put your PS5 in 1080p Mode
