@JJ2 ND being very precious about it to the extent of yanking it from the hands of another studio and making it them selves sounds realistic, because ND is a studio of absolute perfectionists and they care deeply about this particular IP reputation. And remake of the first game being made just in time for the TV show hype, which, with Witcher series proved to be quite a deadly combo for additional sales, makes a lot of sense also. So, it's really likely.
@Porco not necesserily the case. TLoU Remake and Factions for TLoU Part II is unlikely to take up a whole generation to make. I would expect at least one other game from Naughty dog in the next 5 years. Which, admittedly can very well be TLoU Part III haha
@Ken_Kaniff i actually prefer their new controlled, gradual approach with State of Play. Instead of adding it's own announcements to the pile of informational noise that is E3, Sony did well to distance it's brand from it and be more mindful about the time frames for information dumps about it's projects in development.
You have to understand that E3 has an extra quality of a competition, and wether or not you have enough content to show at that given time in June of a given year, will affect the way general public thinks about you. So why invest time, money, stress and risks into this show that is cringe as hell to begin with, when you can do it your own way entirely. More direct, time effective, meaningful and ultimately cheaper way of doing things. They were on this trajectory for a while, before calling it quits entirely.
So, beside a possibility of an even more balanced and direct way of communicating with fans, what they do now just makes sense to me. E3 can die right now and i will not pity it for a second. There was a time when it had it's use. Now, with the immediacy of information flow, it is dinosaur bones.
BtS was badly acted and the writing wasn't half as engaging as the original game. Although the dlc chapter with Max had the original's beauty and emotion.
@SterlingEyes finished Demon's Souls Remake today, which previously was the only Soulsborne game i haven't finished. Now im all good and ready for the final From torture.
Very much so. I love both Kotor games. To me the ideal candidate is of course Obsidian, since i love Sith Lords the most. But apparently it's someone new and not very famous. The news are thrilling, none the less.
I love Lazlow. Ever since i was a kid playing III, and having a very limited understanding of english language through to V, where he made a full blown cameo. I want a tonal shift within GTA series for a long time now. But not having Lazlow on the radio in VI will be weird. Best of luck to him and his close ones. I really hope he revamps his podcast presence in some shape or form. Lazlow Show was brilliant.

Exclusives wise, this was a slam dunk of a generation for Playstation.
Phil's rationale here seems a bit unfair at best. That phrase Is a poor justification for the lack of next gen caliber games on the new Xbox. Just work hard on your first party line up, man. Don't need to be all smart about how to twist public view of your console with this ***** philosophy. Gamers want great games - that's what its all actually about.
A sensible thing to do. Yet, there is something about a "universal experience" like Sekiro. Having said that, i have nothing against their decision to make the game more inclusive. Godspeed.

Re: The Last of Us 2, Ghost of Tsushima Dominate in 2021 BAFTA Games Awards Nominations
TLOU II not nominated for narrative has to be a mistake, right?

Everyone needs to chill tf out, the event was fine.
Re: Random: The Last of Us Fans Are Placing Pedro Pascal into Scenes from the Game
@ILikeStake the whole movie was horrible. It actually saddened me that Pedro Pascal damaged his rep by participating in this mess of a movie.

Very much so. I love both Kotor games. To me the ideal candidate is of course Obsidian, since i love Sith Lords the most. But apparently it's someone new and not very famous. The news are thrilling, none the less.

Re: Talking Point: What Did You Think of the Latest State of Play Livestream?
It was okay for the most part, ending on Godfall (and for so long) was a mistake though.
Re: Talking Point: What Did You Think of the Latest State of Play Livestream?
@Akurusu so true. What a waste of space.
Re: Can You Name These PS2 Games?
Like many others here, 9/15. Some were lucky shots, not gonna lie.
Re: Poll: What's Your Favourite PS4 Game of 2020 So Far?
The Last Of Us Part II. Not only of 2020, but of all time. Just as the first game was before it.

Re: Talking Point: What PS5 Games Do You Expect at Sony's Next-Gen Reveal Event?
@Boldfoxrd one can hope. Lost Legacy is my favorite in the series, not kidding.
Re: Talking Point: What PS5 Games Do You Expect at Sony's Next-Gen Reveal Event?
Of all the exclusives, HZD2 is the most probable timing wise. And will be a very exciting thing to boost morale among ps fans.
Re: Talking Point: What PS5 Games Do You Expect at Sony's Next-Gen Reveal Event?
@Boldfoxrd damn i would love Lost Legacy 2, but it's practically impossible at this point in time.
Re: Ghost of Tsushima Sounds Lengthy, Has a Lot of Optional Stories and Locations to Discover
