1 Billion for the IP? A dead IP!? 1 Billion for the talent? What talent they never been able to make anything else!? Seems Sega is trying to speedrun it's self into bankruptcy 🤷
These guys had a fantastic formula that all they needed was to tweak slightly for future games, instead they threw it all in the garbage for a game that less then 5 people are excited for.
I would have preferred they just released it as is and moved on to something else, I predict the delay won't make a difference in the public perception of the game and it will flop harder then Gotham Knights.
I would prefer they just ignore most of Part 2 script and do their own version of it, if people want to watch Joel die so badly they can just replay the game.
Never had a good experience streaming PS3 games let alone anything more advanced than that on PS Now. If this handheld device is real I hope it bombs, flops, fails, goes the way of the Dodo!
This is fantastic news! I've been screaming for years why Mm was stuck in purgatory working on a game that failed commercially, neither Sony or Mm were making money from it so why continue it!? I can't wait to see what they make next!
I thought she was awful but is because of inexperience more than anything, many times it sounded like she was bored and just wanted to say her lines and go home.
That said it's still no excuse to harass her, that said I didn't agree with her statements about casting. The best person for the job should get it regardless of their race and what race they are playing.
@jdv95 I actually prefer there's preemptive backlash so Sony really thinks hard if this would be a good idea to consider in the future. There's little point in backlash if this potential cloud junk is being manufactured and being ready to ship 🤷
Sony have ruined any goodwill they had with Activision so in the scenerio where the deal doesn't go through I would expect Microsoft to immediately ink a deal with Activision (Bobby will sign with a grin) to have COD day one on GP plus exclusive dlc.
Sony will not win this fight even if the deal was somehow stopped. They need to move on and work on something to fight back against cod in the worst case scenario, I hear they have the most talented and creative studios in the world so show us!
I will buy it day one if true! Don't see the problem people weren't forced or urged to buy the PS4 Pro, it was there for the people that wanted a little more from games.
If is similar to Steamdeck and Switch then I will be there day one! If is just Cloud garbage and Remote play junk I wouldn't want one for free, waste of plastic 🤦
If is cloud based then is already dead and I myself hope it bombs worst then the Virtual Boy! Streaming PS3 games in my home with really good internet is already an awful experience, now if I'm able to download all the games locally then we can a serious conversation ✌️
I'm rooting for the game as is the only really polished alternative to Smash, with all those months they can easily add at least 10-15 more characters with more modes and more polished gameplay.
Heck I wouldn't mind if they just straight up copy and pasted most of the Smash mechanics, modes, and movesets 🤷
I echo some of the same sentiments here in that her performance was bad, really bad honestly. That said I'm sure she did the best that she could, it's on Capcom to find people that are professionally trained to voice act not on her.
I wish her success on her future endeavors and hope the trolls get bored fast and move on to something else. But she should not voice act again until she takes some professional voice lessons.
Takashi Mochizuki is a proven liar? is the first time hearing of this guy so I don't know of him. However if the sales numbers were decent enough you can bet Sony would be gloating about them so his numbers don't seem so far off.
If it was fully backwards compatible I would have jumped in as there's lots of PSVR games I still want to play, but now I have to wait till there's a sizeable library.
Also it needs more games from big established ips not just indie games! from a casual point of view there's only like two games, Horizon and RE Village!
@Korgon That definitely confuses me, Dreams was a commercial failure anyway you look at it. So how are they able to live off a failure that doesn't sell and isn't really making Sony any money?
@WallyWest "We aren't winners because sooner or later Gamepass is going to see big price hikes"
And when those price hikes happen people will happily jumpship and stop paying! Why would I not take advantage of a current good deal because later on maybe it won't be a good deal anymore?
@Impossibilium Yeah the game looks up my alley aswell, since Sonic Racing has been sidelined this will be the next best thing! But like you said in about 2 years when there's a ultimate edition with everything included at a discounted price.
Heck I would be willing to pay the $70 if it was the complete experience with everything included, but of course that's not even close to the reality.
I will definitely buy it once it's massively discounted and the season pass is also incredibly super discounted! I really would like to someday meet the person that's going to pay $70+ on a Lego game 😶
The first Mirrors Edge was phenomenal for it's time, I had such an amazing time getting the Platinum for the game. Can't say the same for the 2016 reboot which didn't have the soul (for lack of a better word) and just didn't work as a open world.
I'm a Rocksteady fanatic and love everything they have made which unfortunately ends with Arkham Knight. I have so little interest in this game that I don't think I would play it if I was offered $70 to play it.
Even reading articles about it bores me. I wish there wasn't a delay and instead was moved forward so we can at least put the game behind us, then we just wait for Rocksteady to make a proper follow up to the Arkham universe.
I would love a Sony Superman game! heck I wish Rocksteady was working on a Superman game instead of that other thing that should not be called by name 👀
That would be ridiculous and unnecessary! There hasn't really been a PS5 game that you can show and say "look at the power of the PS5 in all it's glory!" Demon's Souls probably gets the closest but that would be 1 game to show.
I would like a documentary on who in the planet is left that hasn't bought GTA V yet, also another one about the people that are buying it once a month every month in some sort of ritual 😑
This is the one game that I think won't benefit from any kind of delay, it's problems are baked deep into the game. Just release it as is and move on to something else, hopefully something that might actually get people excited 🤷
Well this just got very interesting all of sudden 🙂 can't wait to see those third party deals and the amounts paid! Is obviously going to look terrible if it shows that Sony is paying so Final Fantasy doesn't go to Xbox.
I hope I'm not being too greedy but I want Mass Effect quality level remasters of the trilogy along with remakes of 2&3, I think I'm being very reasonable 🙂
Apparently WB has no idea what to do with it's DC properties! Hogwarts is flying off the shelves and instead of taking some inspiration from that they go full speed the opposite way.
@Ralizah You said everything I've been thinking and more. All they had to do was not buy the game and just pretend it didn't exist, let people play whatever they want and not make it a litmus test.
I consider myself a trans ally and I happily bought the game day one, like you said if people only want to consume and use ethical products then they will end up living like an Amish.
I'll get it on a super discount, I can't reward lazy as possible port jobs. Also if you have the Gamecube version you have the very best of the game, you're actually downgrading if you buy this remaster.
The show being such a huge hit definitely surprised me, I really wanted ND to move on to a new ip but this pretty much guarantees that we're getting Part 3 sooner than we thought.
My only request if we are destined to get another one is that it be a completely new cast in another part of the world 🤞
Well this comments section went well 🙂 Anyway I'm just waiting for release day to get here, I'm glad is getting good reviews and looks like the second goty contender along with Dead Space.
She actually seems like a lovely person but the problem with the game has almost nothing to do with her, the writers did her dirty and well the developers that made the game.
From what I've seen this game is actually good and well built so it's not even enough that your live service game is well received, you have to pretty much blow up from the gates and that's not something developers or publishers can control.
Looks like we're on a nice once a week streak of a live service getting canned, hopefully a few of those live service games Sony has planned can somehow morph into single player games 🤞
I think it's cutting edge tech so the price is correct (sort of) and I'm very interested in it but I'm not willing to take one for the team, sorry 🤷
I will watch closely the reactions and the games that begin to pop up, once I see there's a very good amount of games with much more to come I will jump in.
I don't understand who pays $70 for a sports game that will immediately be outdated in a year or less, if anything is the one genre that's tailor made for GP.
Really happy for Dead Space, it deserves all those sales and I'm personally also having a blast with it. I know it's probably unlikely now but I would still love remasters of the original 3 games, the third game would be interesting to experience without the microtransactions.
I was absolutely done with Uncharted as I thought 4 ended everything perfectly, however! If is moving the story foward with Cassie then I would be fully onboard.
I just didn't want the lazy approach of going backwards in time and doing Sully when younger, Elena when younger, Chloe when younger, etc. I'm also sure the new studio will do the game justice if U5 is real.
I'm already bored of the franchise so I hope either we get a new Killzone or a new ip. If they do go ahead with Horizon 3 then it better be ground breaking and not have the Assassin's Creed formula all over it's dna.
I'm waiting for the mother of all price drops which at this rate should be in about 2-3 months. I can't wait to get my hands on Dead Space though, I think it will be the first great game of the year 🤞
@Northern_munkey So this game and launch Cyberpunk were/are attacked just cause people were bored and needed to find something to hate? Forespoken should instead be praised and applauded?
