If it was any other developer I'd probably have rolled my eyes but this will probably be really good. I was hoping to finally see bluepoint games new game.

Not me not knowing what is going on

I quit when I tried to beat the middle salesman in the 3D brawl mini game. I'm sure it's possible, if I spent an unholy amount of time learning the moves and order but really, what's the point. So I moved on.

@LogicStrikesAgain I'm hoping Sony music or pictures makes the acquisition not SIE, so that they are in that Bungie gray area. Spike chunsoft and Acquire make boatloads of money on Nintendo, and if they remain separate from first party they should still be able to make games on the Switch while being a "first party" studio. Obviously the games would need to come out on PlayStation too but it'll keep the companies alive and thriving. FromSoft isn't going to ever close down, they'll essentially become a PS/PC powerhouse studio.

Considering rebirth was a lot worse than the remake, putting some of the resources to the DLC was definitely a bad idea. I hope part 3 gives this trilogy a fantastic finale.

@LogicStrikesAgain they are a very creative studio, but I don't think they make a ton of sales. They were a staple on the Vita and make great handheld titles for the Switch too. If Sony keeps them I can see them being moved to the handheld division. But since they are a generally low units sold studio I feel they might get shafted being in PlayStation.

I love Spike chunsoft for it's whacky games, I hope Sony doesn't close them if the acquisition goes through. They are such a nice AA breath of fresh air... If Sony isn't interested in them, maybe Bandai Namco will take them in... Considering they are a large ally to both companies.

I mean...why wouldn't they deny such allegations?

I worry about Spike chunsoft, they won't survive this type of merge.

I'm tired of all this consolidation. But this will likely happen like the Bungie deal giving them some autonomy, due to Sony looking to buy not PlayStation...

I gave up on the platinum for Rebirth. I'm glad I at least got it for the remake. I hope the side missions for the third part are not as ridiculous...

Why not? With some oversight for quality control, Sony can have IP fan made spinoffs where they can publish and make money from while doing little of the actual work.

They may as well got the extra money from Sony. Microsoft is no longer competition and I don't know if this can even run on the switch. lol

Why can't a game be standalone without dlc?

I'm a bit tight on funds do to the economy. But once I'm back on top, I'm getting one. I like the flexibility it would provide my lifestyle.

@TheArt Microsoft didn't get where they are today by not being greedy.

I like him but this is extra

The Fall of Ubisoft and the rise of Tencent needs to be studied.

I'm happy to see Nixxes ramp up remasters around PC and PlayStation. Can't wait to see what else they do to free up resources for the other studios.

I'm excited to try this

I can save them the trouble:
1) smaller demographic
2) less restrictions - I'm looking at your Xbox series S...

A whole lot of nothing to report on the first party side as of today.

They should allow us to opt out of ads

Fomo is a culprit to buying patterns

Microsoft about to purchase another publisher. Rather than getting third party publishers on Xbox. They'll become the biggest PlayStation third party publisher. Haha

I wish they sold these in stores. Scalpers run software that allow them to purchase these ahead of honest people. It really is unfortunate.

Finally level 5 is coming home to PlayStation

I'm still waiting to hear what bluepoint is making. It shouldn't take this long...

I'll buy it just to stick it to Nintendo

Looks interesting, I can't wait to see a story trailer.

I had a fun experience on my way to a platinum with this game. Only one playthrough needed but I ended up playing 3 more playthroughs since I enjoyed it. Would highly recommend!

I'd be shocked if this was true. $400 M is an unfathomable amount...

How dare they say no to a sequel and pull this nonsense.

Smh

Just waiting for Sony to finally announce first party titles to fix the interest this generation.

I remember when SE took FF14 offline reworked it and brought it back.

It will likely be the best path forward for Concord. The mechanics were solid, and the gameplay loop was fine. They should add PvE content, a more defined story and revamp character designs.

It's nice to know good will exists in this industry despite the massive turnover.

I don't like Sony's current approach to game announcements. Now I also don't like Microsoft announcing 3+ years in advance. But I think a year is enough time to build hype for a game.

Since Guerrilla doesn't want to do anything with Killzone anymore, I want them to license it out. It's too good of fan favorite franchise to collect dust like this!

I would buy any first party Vita exclusive that is remade for PS5. I can't think of one I didn't like.

I would also want an expanded remake of Killzone Mercenary.

I think it had the best concept of any Killzone game. Pick up contracts for either side, heck even make it multiplayer. So you can face the same mission in the other side of a real player along with computer characters.

Considering this was my favourite Vita exclusive, I am beyond excited about this news! I will definitely buy it day one!

I just feel that SE has unrealistic expectations.

If I'm in the market for a ps5 and don't have one, I'd save up a few more months and just get the pro. If you have a ps5 already, why are you mad? This is so much of a nothing burger.

I'm not sure why so many people are mad, it's not something most of us would have considered regardless of the price. They have a demographic for it, and that demographic is unafraid of the price.

@Sequel you're acting like Astrobot wasn't greenlit by the same Jim Ryan you denounce. His live action initiatives might have been half baked, but you cannot deny the fantastic single player projects that became possible under his leadership.

If it's anything like Payday, it'll have a decent audience to pull from.

I respect Sony for handing out refunds at least. Hopefully the studio doesn't close from this.

They should remove the $40 for extra and premium subscribers, that should give them a boost.

Well I'm sure Sony is giving SE some money so they can stop complaining about meeting sales targets

Me: Easy Platinum.

Also me: gets roped into kdrama plot

Only criticism I have is lack of PvE content. Similar to Warframe this game would have had a better shelf life if there was more types of content.
