The proof will be the pudding. I suspect taking full advantage dual sense for them means something different to us and certainly not anywhere near Astrobot.
@EfYI Live service games have run into difficulties doing sequels like that. I wouldn't be surprised if they drop the 2 and just keep evolving the current game. They already said they want to switch the current game engine to a more modern engine. That's probably their next big project over next couple of years, along with their next game.
Why is Sony forming new studio's in one of the most expensive areas to live in the world. You think they be looking to form them in Eastern Europe, china, Vietnam, Thailand. This shows perhaps giving it America arm control of its gaming division wasn't a good move and American lacks the global vision to create a global studio ecosystem.
I suspect Sony couldn't afford to swallow the company as a whole and the South Korean and Chinese shareholders refused to sell. So for now Sony has to settle for 10%, i could see Sony slowly acquiring more shares until tennant an co give in and sale up.
@Deoxyr1bose The marvel name brought in the punters, Now will they stay once they realise it just a reskin Overwatch, just like Concord, that the billion dollar question.
@MikeOrator Don't forget the award winners will get 10 seconds for their speech, why his mate Hideo Kojima will get 20 minutes to talk about his latest game.
I just got the full version for 36 quid from Very. I suspect this might be Sony attempt to the title into a more live service type thing an providing a free entry point.
A intern position asking for practical experience. I don't know whether to cry or laugh. They want to do the internship to gain practical experience to get a permanent.
@QualityGeezer Expanse quality went way down when it transition to Amazon. It had all the hallmarks of a boss lumping a project they didn't want, which is what rumour to have happens, Bazos demanded they picked up The Expanse.
I would have prefered the show to have been done by Apple, which have one shown it will fund a show even if its numbers are small, an fund them well. An well it frankly the home of science fiction at the moment.
Ghost wire Tokyo been on my radar for a while, so looking forward to cracking that open. And hot wheels should be fun i presume. I'm not sure what the ones moaning about this selection wants
@RoomWithaMoose or allow team Asobi to create something new from scratch. Whilst also creating content for astro bot an astro bot playroom. Don't destroy such creativity by getting them to just pumping out astrobot game's.
@ZeroSum They probably place bets on the share price falling already, short sellers like these guys are crooks. Fact is Roblox is ridiculous profitable and unlike Epic, isn't using the money from it to fund other projects and parts of the studio alive. I bet they are sitting on a mountain of cash, in fact they got a money pile of nearly 3bn.
Most days in my tesco stores we are constantly selling Roblox cards, I don't doubt it popularity at all. I also don't trust reports from what I consider the scum of wall street.
@Widey85 Well they had two games in the works, Marathon, an a 2nd undisclosed game which Sony has now hive off into it own studio, presumably because they didn't trust Bundie management not to screw it up.
@Flaming_Kaiser I believe they had a clause in the contract which prevented Sony management from interfering the running off the company, as long as they met certain agreed targets. They failed to achieve those targets, giving Sony the ability to go in and sort the company out.
Next Gen is looking very skippable at the minute. But might also be gen where there a much clearer break between ps5 and 6 with many ps6 exclusives that are heavily reliant on ray tracing.
There been a showcase every year in September since 2019. So yeah they are likely to keep up with that pattern. I can tell you which months the 2025 showcases will be in if you want?

Re: Former Bungie Director Chris Barrett Suing Sony for Over $200 Million
It all depends on whether Sony can get his victims on the stand. Will probably end in a settlement but i hope not.

So all the cries and tears on the internet means absolutely nothing an Sony is chugging along pretty nicely.
Re: Hogwarts Legacy a Huge Priority for PS5, Will Connect to HBO TV Show
I presume that Hogwarts Legacy 2 will be using many of Hogwarts Legacy 2 assets with a few updates, which will greatly decrease development time.

Re: Report Brands Roblox 'X-Rated Paedophile Hellscape' for Children, with Inflated Player Numbers

Re: Sony Execs Seem to Think the Company Doesn't Have Enough Original IP
@Markatron84 Most of that IP was acquired via acquisition. Not home grown from the ground up by Sony. I think that the point he was trying to make.

Especially after that financial times article about the lack of IP fully developed at Sony.
