Seem alot of people were upset at the time that Sony was focusing on big games.
Edit: What upsets me is that Sony wont give Ueda AAA budget and they let him go.
I wonder how it would be if Sony made Nintendo games but with way bigger budgets??
We already saw that with Rift Apart. I think we will get more as well in the future.
Ironically even then people will ignore them and say Sony is just making grounded third person action games. Just like how tons ignored Returnal and R&C this year to say Sony hasn't released a different genre type game in forever.
I think Sony can afford to do AAA and AA games. Especially with their current expansion. I hope SackBoy was a success so we can continue to get similar AA releases.
Didn't Jason said on his article that the project was still alive?
I'm drawn to SIE's output of prestige titles too, but there's no stigma against that in here.
They tried that once. Game took 10 years and 2 generations to ship. And it was a commercial flop.
And they(and me to a lesser extent) probably still are upset but it certainly not the general sentiment. The consumers at large made it perfectly clear they ok with the content Sony releases . It's why I see no need to argue back and forth about it. So many options out there I and anybody can perfectly ignore the Sony content They don't want and get it elsewhere and get the first party stuff we do enjoy.
If anything the only constant stigma that sticks around in here is a lot of ppl want them to do exactly the same thing. They can't even try a few multiplayer titles
It was in April of this year, Hermen took over in November 2019, if he wanted to cancel it he would have just canceled it by then rather than give it to Naughty Dog.
It wasn't revealed because it probably wasn't far along in development. I mean, the article says:
If I'm Sony I'm not revealing this remake with a CG trailer, I would reveal it with gameplay to showcase the improvements compared the original game and for that I would probably wait until the game is closer to the release.
If we go by the rumours and what we know we are going to be fine.
Sly Cooper game, Twisted Metal game, WipEout game, two AAA FPS games, close to a dozen new I.Ps, etc....
If all of these manifest into something great and are a success then potential it means a higher chance of getting other types of games or revivals of other dead franchises.
I mean look back at the mid to late PS4 cycle and it wasn't as diverse as it is now. Let's hope for a great future.

Yeah, i mean thats what would happen. As long as sony continues to put big budgets and polish into games they won't shed the image. Shit, Death Stranding could be a nintendo games mechanically, if it didn't have the big hollywood budget.
Even the smaller budget stuff like Kena even though its relatively simple still won't be confused for a Nintendo game because of how it looks
Also I'm sure the game will ship close to the show. It's the best marketing for it.
I do wonder of we are getting a PS5 version of Part II. A collection like Jason theorized would be amazing.
I'm glad you enjoyed it. I don't want to comment on the quality of the game, that's subjective.
Just saying its pretty obvious why Sony said "no thanks" to Ueda after that. Its a business, ultimately.
If I was a Billionaire I'd call Ueda and just ask: "How much dou you need??"
Yeah there is an image that people have in their minds that won't ever shed.
Sony is going to at least have another Astro Game, but people will still think of them as that third person narrative driven, grounded publisher.
When in reality Sony also released R&C, they released Sackboy, they released Astro's Playroom, Dreams, etc...
They can never escape the ND shadow looming over them.
I don't think so either but they're the most prestigious
I already saw people equating Rift Apart to other sony blockbuster 3rd party games in the TGA thread.
Yup, all three of these should have been on there too.
Was nice to see they did put F.I.S.T. on there since that's another great smaller game they signed.
Great first year.
Nice picks!
Its a good point. Who knows right? I personally adore The Last of Us and Part 2, so I'd love to see it be real. TLOU1 remade to similar technically fidelity of Part 2 for PS5 sounds great. I'd love the same for Red Dead Redemption. A remake in the RDR2 engine. Both series have their 1st parts lagging an entire generation of technology behind the 2nd parts of the story. Thankfully, this is an issue that both God of War and Horizon will avoid with Ragnarok and Forbidden West. Heck, even Spider-man got a proper PS5 remaster.
Best is totally subjective. Naughty Dog and Santa Monica have created Sony's prestige games with God of War, Uncharted, and The Last of Us. And they sell many many millions. They have the best combo of commerical and critical success.
However, soon Insomniac will be the studio that generates Sony the most profit. Spider-man & Wolverine. Huge cash cows. Guerrilla is the other one that keeps growing and has their 1st huge commercial and critical hit with HZD. They'll catch up. After that, Sucker Punch is the next one on the come up. A much smaller studio that will need to grow.
As problematic as they are Insomniac has definitely been consistently putting in the work for Sony
For sure but it's detrimental to the other first party studios imo
Does he want an AAA budget or is he like those Siren devs that left that want to just do AA?
Also maybe Sony didn't want to since his last game as such a time sink.
Perfection takes time.
We have yet to seen another companion in gaming even come close to Trico.
Honestly I think that belief is slowly dying in the mainstream as well. I think this gen will have a ton of other WWS be people's #1 and #2 over them.
His next game is with Epic right?
Maybe the one after that, especially if he gets his work schedule optimized then SIE XDEV can help him out?
I actually really liked that game.Was more interesting
I kid I kid
And I'm not even a SW fan.
Since we're doing hot takes on this thankful day:
I think expanding Team Asobi and XDev Japan is way better of an idea than whatever sony was doing with Japan Studio all last gen

I woudn't ask anything more.
Just one more game with Sony.
Never seen a single Star Wars in my life and I'm awaiting the sequel
Honestly I'd prefer if XDev focused on making a project with Media.Vision 🏃♂️💨
Wild Arms 6 please and thank you.
Nope Digimon can die, it is time for Wild Arms.
I believe they have two teams.
You'll get wild arms 7 don't worry....coming to you on ios and Android devices soonNope Digimon can die, it is time for Wild Arms.
I believe they have two teams.
Funny. Also it would be Wild Arms 6.
Now I want SIE to acquire Media.Vision, preventing them from making any future Digimon games forever.
They're pretty good, but they're no Asobi and Polyphony Digital.
And you don't gotta worry about that cuz they probably not even making the darn thing no more it's been forever since it was announced lol
User banned (1 month): Platform warring, long history of similar behavior
I'm not ragging on nintendo, i love my switch but the new Kirby game looks like something Team Asobi would do but not as nice looking
Sony biggest obstacle with Astro is marketing it correctly

??what's the darn correlation there tho...it's so random
Yeah wave spawn gacha game ain't no Wild Arms 6.
And you don't gotta worry about that cuz they probably not even making the darn thing no more it's been forever since it was announced lol
