Bungie just got too big and too bloated to useful. Sony has ordered it to be put on a diet. Spun off a new team to make a new studio, which can make more games with less interference.
This will happen again until bungie is at a sensible size. And Sony has lots more, controlled, studios under its banner
@Fartingale white? Yes. 30 something? No! Waaay older, Thank the heavens! The world is so messed up and falling apart that I’m glad I’m old. And this article is proof of that.
I genuinely feel fear for the younger generation and the world they will inherit
@Mustoe agreed. Very much like wukong, phantom blade zero et al. All look similar in design and gameplay. Probably the the big reason a lot of people are becoming disenchanted by the current gen of games.
Having said that I am looking forward to phantom blade zero. Will see reviews upon release.
@UnlimitedSevens no L dude👍🏻, I just studied renaissance art and history at university. History is a bit sketchy on Da Vinci’s input with regards to the Sistine Chapel. Both artists knew and respected each other but didn’t get along with other. And you are quite correct in the time frame of four years.
If you ever get the chance to visit the chapel, I highly recommend it. Pictures do no justice. Has to be seen to appreciate it.

Re: Your Horizon Zero Dawn PS4 Progress Will Transition to PS5 Remaster
@Fiendish-Beaver also PS6 might only be bc with PS5 games and not PS4
Re: Ghost of Yotei Is the Ghost of Tsushima Sequel We Needed, Slashing to PS5 in 2025
@Vaako007 you can, as you say ,” pass” on this but personally I think you will be missing an awesome gaming experience.
But each to their own, and no judgment passed.
Re: Ghost of Yotei Is the Ghost of Tsushima Sequel We Needed, Slashing to PS5 in 2025
@GenialJoe same!!! Cannot wait, DAY ONE purchase.
Re: Frostpunk 2 Dev Recoups Entire Marketing, Production Budget in Three Days
@LuXifer something for Sony to think about….
Re: Horizon Zero Dawn's PS5, PC Remaster Is Very Much the Real Deal
I dunno about this.
My paranoid Brain thinks this is because PS6 will ONLY be back compatible with PS5 games not PS4, leaving the big first party games on old gen boxes.

That’s scary implications for people with digital only libraries.
Re: Despite Price Point, Analyst Firm Expects PS5 Pro to Sell Like PS4 Pro
@Ysobad and those who cannot think, judge.
Which one are you?
Re: Despite Price Point, Analyst Firm Expects PS5 Pro to Sell Like PS4 Pro
@Ysobad Really?
Nothing constructive to say? Just ‘thumbing your nose’ at people who find/think that their money is to be spent a bit more wisely.
Come on, please justify your comment with some critical thinking.
Re: 25 Years Ago, Square Released the Best Final Fantasy Game
Yep. Best FF game. Totally agree.
Others won’t and I appreciate that but I never really did run with the pack.
Happy to wander a different path.
Re: Preview: Lost Records: Bloom & Rage Seeks to Create a Version of the 90s That Never Existed
@riceNpea can we add the 70’s as well?

Re: Ceramite-Armoured PS5 Looks Like a Worthy Space Marine 2 Relic
This is why I’m slightly disappointed with Sony this gen.
Side plates.
A massive opportunity but Sony are just sitting on their hands.
Controllers aplenty. But side plates?
Not much tbh

Re: Rumour: Xbox to Announce a 'Big' Game Coming to PS5 at Gamescom
I’m thinking starfield. It was being developed for PlayStation before M$ waded in and said ‘stop right there’.
But was all that coding destroyed? I’m thinking not.
Time will tell.

Re: Ghost of Tsushima Now Considered a Major Influence for Big Open World Games
Can see why. GOT is incredibly good game that deserves all the praise it has received
Re: Reaction: Sony's Billion Dollar Bungie Buyout Is Looking More and More Like a Blunder
Bungie just got too big and too bloated to useful. Sony has ordered it to be put on a diet.
Spun off a new team to make a new studio, which can make more games with less interference.
This will happen again until bungie is at a sensible size. And Sony has lots more, controlled, studios under its banner

Re: Randy Pitchford Says Fans Will Be 'Very, Very Happy' with Next Borderlands Game
Oh no! Someone predicting people are going happy with a video game.
What could possibly go wrong?
Do these people never learn?
Re: 'PlayStation's Blessed with Marketing Budgets We're Not Able to Enjoy,' Xbox Bigwig Bemoans
@IOI um…… how is that incentive of console war?
Sony is more popular because of hard work and grit.
And question to you.
Why do Microsoft always cry boo-hoo for being ‘third/underdog’?
Stomping spoilt rich kid, that’s Microsoft.
Re: Re-Enactment Group Not Satisfied with Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed Shadows Flag Apology
@REALAIS lots of tv series, movies, books use real world attributes but it’s still fiction.
Most fiction is based on the known and changed to make the story.
Re: Re-Enactment Group Not Satisfied with Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed Shadows Flag Apology
@ThaBEN
‘If it's just fiction, then why do people lose their mind’
Because people get offended soooo easily today about insignificant little details and blow them way of proportion. Welcome to 21st century life.
Re: Re-Enactment Group Not Satisfied with Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed Shadows Flag Apology
Do people realise this is historical FICTION?
Based on, but not ACTUALLY depicting real events.
Re: DON'T NOD Delays the Promising Lost Records on PS5 to Avoid New Life Is Strange
Not a problem. Going to get both anyway. And I have games that can fill the space between releases. Win/Win I think!

Re: Criticised Star Wars Outlaws PS5 Demo Merely an 'Amuse-Bouche' of the Full Experience
It can’t be any worse than the ‘new’ star wars movies produced in the last decade or so, or the flogged-to-death tv series that have been released.
Re: Summer Game Fest Will Focus on Existing Games, Not Massive Announcements
This event will probably die a slow death, just like E3 did. Shall not bother.

@UnlimitedSevens Da Vinci didn’t paint the sistene chapel in four years, the ceiling was painted from 1508-1512 by renaissance painter Michelangelo.
