@StrickenBiged For a company that never been profitable they have spent billions on acquisition . I don't think they are in any real danger of disappearing, surely apple or Google will buy them or at least the game engine, Google would have to get rid of the ads parts of the company.
@theheadofabroom An you expect people to navigate all that nonsense, that why unity was popular, no politics, just engine you could use to make games for basically anything.
@ShowerThoughts the only reason Jedi survivor is getting a non ray tracing version is because they are producing a PS4 version, if that wasn't happening it wouldn't be getting one as to many things would have it be changed to make that happen. And I suspect they lost their game director as a result of EA forcing them to do PS4 mode
@Beerheadgamer82 if it really is as powerful as a ps5 as the rumour suggests then I think we got to say that Nintendo left field move this time is getting back into competing with Sony and Microsoft and releasing as full power console. Perhaps with a add.on switch portable which takes the form of Sony q device.
Basically adding all the content they are going to have to create for the PS4 version of the game, as the PS4 version can't do ray tracing, shame the studio has been force to do this by the bosses rather than refine their raytracing code and proceed to the third game.
@NotSoCryptic People think everyone plays online. I don't think that true at all. I just play the single player portion because I like a good shooter. Which is why I wait years before buying COD and pay the cheapest price I can find for it.
@Nem A port we haven't even scene yet. It would be trivial to add in a tunnel like effect when using portals. In fact the trailer for the PC port didn't show the complete transition.
@Hrommar Whilst foamster art style seem all over the place to me, an probably will only get worse as everyone from Spiderman to Aloy to cloud shows up in the future, the game play itself looks at least as fun as splatoon.
I like the idea and immediately thought that could be fun to play, just like splatoon. I just thought the art design was all over the place in the trailer. There didn't seem to be any cohesion to it.
@Stocksy You aren't suggesting Sony will break their confidentiality agreements studios now are you? Now if one of sony janitors happens to pick up a piece of paper listing all these games and confirm that they are coming to PS5/4 and that info happens mysteriously make it way to a major online leaker, well these things happen, what can Sony honestly do about it!
It should be noted that Sony aren't embargoed and Sony knows who they have been selling or giving development kits to and who they have been helping out behind the scenes.
An after Microsoft stunt last month, surely they are under no obligation to not let that info leak out about 5 seconds after Microsoft Xbox show ends.
@UltimateOtaku91 Ask me this, would you be writing a comment about spider man 2 in this article, if Sony have reveal all of the details in their showcase? The answer is no. An that why they didn't release all of the details. They are spacing it out so they keep themselves in the news. Now will they have a surprise announcement before or after Xbox show, good money would say yes, last of us 3 trailer or the multiplayer game reveal perhaps.
@PSme When you look at the details of the deal you realise just how hard Microsoft is trying to lie, bluff and bully their way to get this deal pass regulators.
@PSme considering King is base on the UK and Microsoft apparently threatening to throw it toys out of pram and pull out of the UK because the CMA had the guile to say no them. It seems king isn't that important to there plans anymore.
If I ever do play this game, it will be after all three games and the DLC are release and package together into a single game, an probably heavily modded by the community to turn it into one coherent game.
@KeanuReaves In the EU both android and Apple will need to allow alternative stores on their devices by next year. It going to be interesting to see if that applies to consoles as well as phones.
@RBMango Sony plan isn't just to dominate the news cycle for a few days, they plan to dominate it for the whole of the summer. My guess is that Sony got a quite a few of these announcements lined up and read to go.

@MasterVGuides Majority will play it on PS5 and if they are coming to the PS4 that console as well.
