They're probably working with some. It's a question tho of how many of these are gonna turn into another ND, and most importantly how long is it gonna take them? The competition is getting more fierce than ever, and Sony need their exclusive to hit harder than ever too. working with some unknown developer is not only risky but takes a long time. Something Sony might not be afford next gen. There's a shorter more assured path that Sony can afford, but they are not taking (at least not yet).
Anyone with taste agrees
People exaggerate how much actually changed. Overstrike only ever got a CG trailer and it featured the abilities that actually made it into the final product. Fuse got a slightly more realistic style and that's about it as far as proven changes go compared to Overstrike.
Those who came to Playstation for Japanese games are probably too busy playing Nioh 2, Persona 5 Royal, Granblue Fantasy Versus, FFVII Remake, Sakura Wars, Yakuza 7 and many others to partake in online discussions about corporate acquisitions.
Yeah but I don't want a Twisted Metal Online-only game. I want a story-mode too, just like in Twisted Metal Black, where every character has an intro video and an ending video. One of the reasons why Twisted Metal PS3 didn't come close to the awesomeness that was TM: Black.
And I, like MCU's SM, am torn between both sides. I love both games equally, but for very different reasons. However, the PS5's SSD could change the way RaD would design its sequel if they were given a chance by SIE to "fix" things. The possibility of significantly less or no forced corridor section could exponentially increase the scope and allow them to focus on the combat encounters and TPS mechanics. Imagine an open-ended White Chapel-size area where you Lycans and Vampires alike
Welp the Order Dream is dead
This is true, can't really argue with it.
You honestly think they would say: "We heard the criticism, but there were technical limitations we had to work within to deliver a glimpse of the vision we had for The Order. We will do better with our next game."
Remember this? Some positive news about SIE.... ~7 months ago:
Sony Interactive Entertainment to Acquire Insomniac Games, Developer of PlayStation®4 Top-selling Marvel’s Spider-Man, Ratchet & Clank
SAN MATEO, Calif., August 19, 2019 – Sony Interactive Entertainment (“SIE”) announced today that SIE has entered into definitive agreements to acquire Insomniac Games, Inc. (“Insomniac Games”), a leading game developer and long-time partner of SIE, in its entirety. Insomniac Games is the...www.sie.com
Good times.
You really think "technical limitations" are what held that game back?
I played Sunset when I got my One X. Not bad, not great. Thought it was just ok.
XCloud would be the cheapest option to play it once that's out of beta, but of course the experience would be highly dependent on your closest xCloud server and your internet.
I'm sure to some extent it did...
Given that they spent so much time to make sure their engine runs smoothly (or at least as smooth possible) on the base PS4, I would say yes. The black bars are not there just for artistic reasons. They were building their new engine as they were working on the game. So, I assume they were integrating features as they were developing the game. RaD are great developers. The Lone Echo series (main games+spinoff) proves that.
It doesn't have to be either or. You can have both. It would just be insane to not have a battle royale mode in a Twisted Metal game. 100 cars speeding around trying to kill eachother in wacky, crazy ways. It would be fantastic.
You are right because it would have still been on the base PS4 and in 2015. As for the other games you mention, they were made by teams bigger than what RaD was when they were working on The Order to be fair and they also had 5/6+ years of expertise working with the current gen systems. PS4 was RaD's first console to work with since the port of Okami to Wii. They were almost as big as Bend (if not a bit bigger) when they worked on it.
That would be a sign of complacency.
Thursday isn't over yet. We could get something.Oh noes. Random Thursdays suck too.
Sony obviously ain't reacting on anything. They have the money but they dont want to spend it. I guess when ps3 situation repeats itself Sony gonna be taught a lesson by its competitors
And on a hardware to some extent still, is in not? Tbh I haven't dig into streaming that much, because almost none of those services are available in my country, but we have a Gforce now-whatever thing and while they're advertising it as "hey, play EVRYWHERE and on EVERYTHING", this thing requires a Windows 10 PC with a specific bottom-line hardware, like, I can't use it, my PC is not powerful enough, it can run Hearthstone, lol, ~2014-2015 games, but not this "future streaming service". Soooo, I hope XClous is not the same, kinda promoting "just have a whatever devise with a screen and you good to go", but then ops, your PC is too weak, your phone is too weak, go buy some hardware, etc. Maybe I'm wrong and it's literally impossible to make those things work on a weak 10YO hardware at all, then my bad ofc.
Yeah. There is time for some delays to be announced lol
That's why I said partners, as in partnerships with other non FP studios that could perhaps one day become part of SIE. Again, lets try to at least wait for the games to be shown before passing judgement.
Yeah, I mean when Sony finally pulls back the curtain, I'm pretty sure people are going to melt. I already feel that way when I see PII, a PS4 game. I honestly don't even know what to expect from their nextgen stuff. Other than probably people melting.
