@Deoxyr1bose after Hogwarts success the PS-WB partnership is something both parties won't let go for now. MK had an invitation all the time.

If xbox goes 3rd party KI can be a retro tournament in the future, Sony already gave it some love last year. A PS port could help a lot LOL.

ArrowHead has the style and personality you should expect from people who live making vg. It's time for Sony to put them a ring.

@get2sammyb this is it!

Wouldn't it be funny if everything is a lie and the announcement is the all digital series x?

What I would pay for a "Aaahh!!! Real Monsters" snes game remake.

@tangyzesty and I don't care if you care about cloud or not LOL. My opinion was about the big companies not consumers.

@HotGoomba no one, everyone will focus on cloud while Nintendo and Sony do their thing. It'll be like buying an analog radio in 2024 (which btw Sony keeps making)

Korean and chinese games are real and are starting to drop. Welcome to the new age

@nomither6 couple years? You mean the lockdown years that made every multi million project in existence get delay?

What some people need to understand is companies only care about not losing money. MS will make even more money = more gp games = gp is everywhere= people less interested in not nintendo consoles.
Internet tec is catching. Sony needs reasons for people to keep buying and they have their own problems, the service dream is over, bungie doesn' know how to do business anymore, etc.
Sony president has said cloud is the next focus, well MS has the lead so this is far from "Sony not trying because they won".

TBH the only xbox game I want to play is Grounded, Machine are great devs tho.

Those crazy twitter guys who said MS was only buying to go 3rd party were right LOL

This is awesome, I remember watching this two years ago and wishing for a ps ver. but these games only come to consoles with direct investment from console owners like MS with Valheim.
Well looks like Sony secured V Rising and I will be there day 1.

If this works for Clone Hero I'm so in.

@Deoxyr1bose maybe once it is on the next switch it will but persona 5 took 2 versions, 5 consoles and pc to sell 5 millions. A very divisive FF16 took 5 days to sell 3 million + sony paying a huge part of development costs + sony paying the marketing (the last 2 apply for 7r too). Between SE and Sega, SE has a bigger chance of making more revenue in one month (I don't say February because FF releases the 29th of a month that usually has only 28 days LOL)

Saw a video of a guy who maid some celeste leves in 3D with their blessing so I guess the result was good enough for the devs to make their own.

What is funny is that this game is japanese I thought it was korean all this time. They sure didn't give a f*ck about AI stealing Pokemon or Ghibli LOL.
I don't know if this has mt but if it doesn't I don't think MS will care if it's exclusive or not, the sales are already in, the early access will lose hype with time.

@nomither6 this is awfully close to the ideology MS has/had behind the idea of hostile takeover over Nintendo so ... if it's just competition and not "Nintendo on pc" then that's cool.

@ATaco because they cost (dev time, servers, power, etc) way more than what mt can make, take fighting games as example. People said f2p was the way to go, multiversus came out with big numbers ... and then died the same year. FG NEED the sales from people who will only play 2 months to exist. And just like that other games.

Hate when great 2d games go full 3d (Pokemon, Darkest dungeon, KOF, etc) but that dog looks cute so they have my interest.

Veteran Japanese devs are always talking about the next generations, they love the industry and they want new blood taking the lead role. I think that is a beautiful mindset.

Meanwhile dev who worked half his life at ND decides to retire saying he doesn't have any problems with Sony and ND is in great hands ... and the doomers: "Oh no Sony what are you doing!" LOL

@TheCollector316 and they are actually. Square Enix, the VR ver. of RE with Capcom, KT, Hoyo, Shift up and the korean mmorp company. Some people think because they aren't focused in japan they don't care about asia but they are putting more money there than ever.

@naruball still better than no profit lol. It's like the psp , a HUGE chunk of people who had one didn't play games, it was one of the best accessible mp3 players of the moment so it is what it is. But you actually see the real money comes from services so that's cool (and that's why they invested in Hoyo before it was cool).

"Hardware strong, software not" let it go man lol. If they want to buy the ps5 and use it to watch vtubers that's great. MS would take that deal any day.

Overall pretty nice stuff but I feel like second party is highly underestimated in general. It's not like Harry Potter is going to carry ps this year. Those games don't "happen to be" on PS, Sony paid those games, in many cases they even put their own devs to help and they are as valuable as first party games. Helldivers at 40 can mean a lot for smaller ps games in the future.

What I think is going to happen:
-PS5Pro is revealed and released this year.
-Stellar Blade is this year November release.
-PS will announce something releasing this year second half, most likely GOW remaster.
-ND or/and Santa Monica will announce their new IPs and at least one will be sifi. Cory made a lot of space related comments after saying he was working in something different than GOW, there were rumors of ND going fantasy (I would love that) but there were more about they also going sifi.

What I want:
-To see the plan for the future of their studios
-More commitment to smaller games

-Sony to acquire something japanese. If it happens it will be something small (no Capcom, Bandai or even SE) but I think there is a chance with KoeiTecmo, it is small compared with other big names and the relationship with Sony is stronger than ever, Sony has for the first time ww publishing rights for one of their games (KT published the Niohs in Japan) and together they bought 1/5 of Akatsuki, looking almost too intentional.

It probably won't happen but I think if Sony makes a push they can get it. Personally Ninja Gaiden was the reason why I got an original xbox when I was a kid, it as a PlayStation ip would be FANTASTIC for me.

@KundaliniRising333 that was because there is friendly fire, so you can mess with your team intentional or unintentionally.

I have to say I'm pleased to see Helldivers in the top 50 of most wishlisted on steam and the $60 ver is more popular than the $40 one. The community really was waiting for this.

@KundaliniRising333 the thing is Helldivers 2 is like Helldiver 1 (a 9 years old game that still has players) but with way more budget.
It's a co-op shooter (I can't call "another" to a game with that kind of history behind but fell free to so), and you battle waves of enemies, there are different kind of missions in different planets with different enemies and difficulties. The maps are indeed procedural. No PVP. If it has story or not is to be seen.
This is the kind of game that plays best with friends but if that doesn't sound "enough" that's the reason why it is $40 in the 70 age lol.

They 100% will do something for FF but i want rise of the ronin and helldivers. If it happens will be a SoP not a Showcase so I hope Sammy doesn't melt after watching it lol.

S2 is set for 2025/26 right? Nothing few cycles can't solve lol.

Not the first time sony "interns" f*ck up trailers. PC players are still waiting for Demon's Souls (that may happen someday tho)

@zhoont don't be concerned, if there is a studio that communicates their focus and confidence that's Arrowhead and they sound really happy with what they have to show.

People actually buying what they ask for would have been very helpful to get the third port ... but never say never, who knows maybe they make Patapon the next Pingu lol

This is one I would LOVE to know % by platform, beyond Sony that should be very pleased getting the marketing rights, knowing how many people got it for ps4, one and Switch would be great.

Bro in green may not be that into "losing billions if that means killing PS" anymore LOL

@Jamesblob I would say that hopefully it is exclusive so the ps site stops talking about ms constantly but Bethesda news are a constant here so it doesn't work LOL

@IOI they already said this project was worked by new employees to get them ready for the big projects so don't worry it wasn't a waste of time and is going to generate money for their financial goals

Surprised Suicide Squad is there, guess talking smack about services is cool but doesn't stop you from wanting them if they have something you like.

They talked ps4pro at ceo so I wouldn't be surprised if they say ps5p is in development. They also talked movies last year, maybe the name of another of the 9 movies left (GoT included).

@GigaGaia actually I wouldn't bet on what you said, Sony making moves around Shift up this year tells a lot about how things are going. And it's true the studio isn't theirs but would be the 3rd year in a row that they enter with a big game with no date that ends up releasing in November (if it happens lol )

They paying to make the stdio an official second party was all i needed to know about the development state.

They aren't afraid to can sh*t anymore lol.

Baby steps looks like a (ugly) money printer. I don't see any problem with Sony investing in a couple of streamer games.Those things sell a lot and it actually looks fun ... for people who aren't snobs about entertainment lol.

@BeerIsAwesome imagine being a kid in the 90s and the nicktoons are in the same channel with the cartoon cartoons. Now that possible move just represents a bunch of bad decisions

Just a reminder that this year warner erased many cartoons owned by them from HBO MAX and existence, the creators of those shows asked fans to download the piracy they could find. If you want to blame someone blame Warner-Discovery

I just think is funny how much people care about the Soulslike term when the media loves to call everything souls just for attention, 3rd person arpg were a thing before fromsoft.

And even if it's a soulslike, before lies of p the only great ones were Nioh so I don't know why people are so tired unless they actually bought the bad ones for some reason ...

Yeah saw people bitching about this patent.

I don't know you guys but I still don't have my banana controller and that patent has more than 2 years. Where are the banana controllers?

"Creator David Jaffe" lol that's nice. He hasn't done sh*t in almost 10 years.

Welcome to the new chapter of - How a man in his 50s asking for attention looks like-
