Yes, I wish people understood this more clearly. It could have cost €46 million, or it could have cost €96 million. All we have is a 'floor' number with no idea how close that is to the real number.
Hopefully they pick up a cinematic person from naughty dog or SMS cus horizon was only lacking in that aspect
Did you play The Frozen Wilds? They got a lot better there
Did we ever find out if there was actually something to the poster claiming that we'd be surprised by GI's cover reveal? It seems almost certain that PII will get a cover, so it'd just be a matter of when. That cover shouldn't be revealed until the 6th. So ND/GI would still have plenty of time to start teasing it if that's what it is.
So why did Naughty Dog choose her?
Yeah, pretty interesting that Sony may be turning Visual Arts into a full development studio. They have enough talent for being one of the best studios in the industry. But does that mean they will no longer support other studios or have they hired enough to build a development team from scratch?
I don't think it's news. VASG works with all major first-party Sony teams that deal with mocap and animation, and it was confirmed last year that this new team in San Diego is being built up in partnership with VASG. She's debunking that it's San Diego Studio working on the game, and since she can't really talk about the new studio she's saying what she can about VASG's role in that new game.
Maybe they're actually opening a new studio after all, and is being supported by VASG? VASG is built in a way to support games after all, plus why would Quentin shy away from mentioning that he's working in VASG when many others already say so?
Maybe a new studio is being formed and Sony isn't turning VASG into a full development house developing their own titles, or maybe not...
One interesting thing is that he focused almost entirely on Uncharted in that video so did she just confirm it's actually Uncharted?
Yea, that is actually pretty major news. We didnt know exactly what were the secret san diego team, but she practically confirmed that there is some game being developed in VASG outside of the support development. This explains all the job positions that i saw in VASG (i had my suspicion that the secret team was within VASG and now it is confirmed)
The question was about if there is an update in a state of play though 👀
They will support other studios. That's their job. But Sony started to build a new team inside VASG. And this new team will work together with a big Sony 1st party studio (Naughty Dog/New Uncharted?) on a new AAA game.
So we actually have new news, with the confirmation of the new studio, and no one is making that thread?
Also someone screenshot that tweet. I have a feeling wont be up for long.

what? there is no official confirmation anywhere of a new studio of significance
100 million consoles is pretty mind-blowing when you think about the fact that those all have to be manufactured and shipped. 100 million. That's a lot of CPU's, fans, screws, hard drives, cases etc. that get created and assembled year after year after year in staggering quantities. 100 million boxes that have to get shipped around the world. Like my brain has a hard time thinking about numbers that big. Amazing.
For the sake of your brain, I hope it never finds out about the number of Smartphones being manufactured and shipped :p
I know!
After the last Gourmet makes I was so heartened to see the reaction: Stop giving Claire bullshit to deal with.
She reminds me of someone I know very well - a colleague, and I find it so uncanny. The way we interact in the work place is just like Brad and her. It's nice.
I love Carla too of course. I think all the content she did with Miz Cracker is what got me into BA. Then I just found out she was incredibly awesome. And Chris just seems to have a godly palette. What a cool channel.
Wasn't the new cover for the Monster Hunter DLC coming this fall?
Two teams could do both? I know they've been hiring it's just that we, rightfully, don't focus on individual hires in this OT.
The bolded is exactly why this is huge news imo. Everyone and their mothers think that the San Diego team is working on the next uncharted. The confirmation that they're not opens a ton of possibilities.
I see NEW AAA ip in our near future.
Haha, I remember Huber used to joke about this with Quentin when streaming UC4 co-op a while ago. But with his magic power to will things into existence, Sony's success with Spider-Man, and now Blade coming to the MCU, I fully believe it will happen one day.
The poster made the comment a while after the MH cover. They were referring to this upcoming months cover issue. Nothing else was said about it. So we don't know if they were bullshitting or if they really know something.
So this is going to sound crazy, which is why I'm confining it to this thread, but regarding the next Game Informer cover:
1) Ben Hanson has been subtly and consistently teasing (more so than usual in my opinion) the next cover issue for the last couple of GI Podcast episodes. In the one that came out today they even talk vaguely about the trip and really, really emphasize that it would be revealed "early" August. They usually reveal it the first Tuesday of the month (I think) which would be the 6th. And that's actually pretty late, so this might be forgoing that to possibly coincide with something else like they often do for things like E3. SoP perhaps? We know the Concrete Genie embargo is up soon so there might be one in late July.
2) But the thing that really stood out to me was when they were talking about a GTA4 mission that tangentially involves a motorcycle. Ben hones in on that small part of it with a question and then suddenly and coyly says with a smile, "Oh, the motorcycle. That's interesting, ladies and gentlemen." He then stares at the panel, waiting for a response, eventually dismissing a question from Kyle as to why he said that.
To be totally honest, Ben makes a lot of non-sequitur/strange jokes sometimes, but the inflection and body language gives me the impression it was more deliberate. It's probably a situation where I'm just looking for something to confirm my belief that it will be Death Stranding, but I do really believe DS is next.
3) Edit: Ben also specifically mentions next weeks show at the very end of the email section saying, "Next weeks show is going to be popping." and again gives a sly pause. If it is really early August, it will probably be announced by then.
In case anyone wants to see the three parts I'm talking about, here are the timestamped links:

Hmmm? The new studio they set up in San Diego with the help of VASG is not the same as San Diego Studio that makes MLB The Show and which recently updated their logo. That is what she debunked as far as the video she was referencing goes. Sony just need to come out and announce the name of this studio to get rid of this misinformation.
The fact that they're heavily emphasizing early August makes me wonder if it's going to be revealed before the usual first Tuesday of the month. If that's the case then it suggest that it's something big and they want more of the month to be able to cover it.
Cod multiplayer reveal is the 3rd so maybe it's that
Yeah, along those lines and to add to my last post, at the very end of the email section, Ben also specifically mentions next weeks show saying, "Next weeks show is going to be popping." and again gives a sly pause. If it is really early August, it will probably be announced by then.
Yeah that's a very strong possibility. I was mostly just thinking about the motorcycle, which I think DS is the only prominent upcoming game we know of right now to feature one? I guess motorcycles are probably also a big part of Cyberpunk and kind of FF7R.
maybe days gone ended up selling a megaton and sony will announce that it beat out spiderman.
just kidding, but yeah it has ought to be for death stranding
I'm looking forward to more Concrete Genie footage and info. Definitely a title I've been interested in since its reveal.
?
She just confirmed that San Diego Studio (MLB The Show) isn't the studio that is working on the new (Uncharted?) game.
It's Quentin Cobb's new AAA team in the VASG building across the street. That's all.
I really want it to be Part II. But I won't start getting my hopes up unless Naughty Dog starts dropping some hints for something coming.
