Yeah, Infamous SS and FL are incredible looking games, especially considering how early they came out in the generation. Ghost of Tsushima is going to goddamn sing!
I agree with this. I really enjoyed their chemistry, and I think Lost Legacy is probably the second best game in the series. I loved how it experimented with more open level design.
I would love a proper pirate/sailing adventure game in the Uncharted mould. Maybe like that bit in UC4 where the Drakes are island-hopping looking for clues, but on a much larger scale in a small boat or something. It could be like Assassin's Creed Black Flag, but with actual good on-foot gameplay! Maybe just straight-up call it Uncharted Waters.
While I'm always more excited by new IPs than sequels, if true this means that Naughty Dog definitely aren't doing Uncharted any more which probably means they'll be making something new after The Last of Us 2 ships. Savage Starlight here we go!
User warned: console warring thread detail
anyway, Phil tell us first party games are important a.k.a exclusives since 2014. He just didn't mention MS would skip this gen to try again in the next. lol
Can we not do this here? There's no need to try and throw shade at the other console in this topic.
Other than some of those Daxter designs being nightmare-fuel, they're not terrible.It was the character changes people didn't like. I doubt they're final though ... if it ever gets made.
The Jak model isn't perfect but it's obviously a work-in-progress. I would have liked to seen more.
With the way God of War's change in direction went and Kodera's comment about not only investing in new IP's but also refreshing existing IP's, I can totally see this new studio making an Uncharted game that's very different to all the previous games. And Nightengale's idea is great and I wouldn't be surprised if that's the direction they would go.
Idk, I think it's too early for Uncharted to get a refresh. Also, there didn't seem to be as much fatigue with UC4/TLL as there was with Ascension. Cory had to literally convince Sony to let God of War be brought back, while Uncharted is still in a safe spot for Sony. A spin-off/prequel would be nice at some point but there's a long list of Sony exclusive IPs to get brought to the modern gen and Uncharted is one of the last in line IMO.
I don't trust Spencer at all, but I'm curious to see what happens after this tweet:
We'll see.
Honestly, beyond some of those Daxter designs, that looks pretty good. Mind you, I wouldn't want Jak revived in any way different than the original (or very similar) artstyle, but if a new IP had these designs and environmental work, I would actually really like it.It was the character changes people didn't like.

Now, I really don't want ND working on anything other than a new IP and TLOU, I guess. Uncharted can come back in the future, TLL showed that it doesn't necessarily have to be all about Drake, but I wouldn't really be too excited about that as of now, I'm done with the series as much as I love it.
I wonder what's next for ND after TLOU: Part II. A new IP? If so, helmed by who? Despite Bruce's departure still hurting, they have a shitton of really talented people, so I can see relatively unknowns popping up for the next big thing.
I remember that tweet and I think he took the replies the wrong way. The thing is, while Sony's 1st party output wasn't stellar during the PS1 era, it's built very nicely over the generations. Even during the PS2 years, their output, from Gran Turismo 3/Twisted Metal Black/ICO in 2001, to God of War/Shadow of the Colossus in 2005, was pretty damn good. Santa Monica was growing, Incognito became part of the family, Guerrilla started their relationship with Sony, Naughty Dog was bought, Sucker Punch began their relationship with Sony, etc. Granted, they weren't putting out GOTY contenders with the PS3 consistency (Uncharted 2, The Last of Us) or PS4 (Bloodborne, Uncharted 4, Horizon, God of War), but that's when the work really started.
I remember clearly because that's when I actually became a fan of Sony's first party. I loved my PS1 and 64, but 64, I loved Nintendo's games (and the wrestling games), while on the PS1, it was mostly third parties I loved with a few exceptions.
Why a new Uncharted? Why not a new Jak?
Way less pressure, plus is not like there is a lack of third person action games.

I don't know why people are so worried about "another" Uncharted. If the new studio is indeed working on another Uncharted it will be at least 2022 by the time it releases, 6 years on from the last game. This is plenty of time to allow for nostalgia/thirst for a new game in the franchise and reduces the chance of burnout.
Eh, the MS thread has plenty of general MS discussion unrelated to first party. I think it's because the rest of the site is a more hostile environment to Xbox so they find it easier just to discuss everything in there.
Dreams' next showing at a conference really needs an "action-packed" scene rather than just another slow platforming/building section. It needs to showcase its ability for the "gamey" gameplay more.

I'll gladly take a new Uncharted.
After Uncharted 3 I thought I didn't want more of it, but U4 changed my mind and now I think more Uncharted is always great.
Francis Drake or Sully trilogy would be cool.

True. They need to show more stuff like this to garner that wider appeal:
I'm really, really hoping we get a "Beta Available Now" announcement at E3.
I feel like every year we end up saying "they had to take this year off to rebuild, next year will be the real test". Meanwhile, every year is a depressing wasteland.
Ghost of Tsushima canceled confirmed.
Ah, E3 season means the fake lists are coming. xD
Ghost of Tsushima canceled confirmed.
Lol, some folks aren't even trying with their fake lists.
Man, I wish some day someone that knows shit prints a list like that and takes a blurry picture with exactly the conference content.

I wanna see more of this futuristic city chase battle thing.

My Grandfather once told me "never trust a E3 leak on an angle"
Days Gone launch trailer..... LMFAO
Ghost of Tsushima canceled confirmed.
Lol that's crazy...reminds me of that starve versus well-fed comment. It's ok to be chill guys, doesn't mean something better is happening someplace else.
And for the record I'm pretty sure this thread was created first on GAF before the Nintendo's and MS even existed and is basically the blueprint. Give kudos to the OP, I believe he started the entire trends of a WWS thread.
Either way, I can't say I'm excited by E3 in general anymore. We're at the point where's there's too much good stuff to play. Hype days are over for me until PS5 or maybe TLOU2 because I'm attached to the characters. Now I'm just enjoying my library, PS4 is my new favorite Playstation.
That would be amazing, Jak reboot by a new team, no pressure and we get one of my favorite franchises back.
I'd be ok with Jak reboot, but only if it's more like the first one. If it's more of a shooter than Ratchet is better at it.
I don't get people's obsession with Jak. It had its trilogy and ended well. If they went with action adventure with that visual and gameplay style, they can make a new IP. A new IP of that vein has better appeal to me than a continuation.
For me, there are other series that have so much more potential to flat out get completely rebooted, and I loved the Jak franchise (got the x racing game as well)
Action, RPG
Alundra, Legend of Dragoon, Arc the Lad, Grandia
Platformer, Party
Ape Escape
Fighting
All Stars
Create RPG
Monster Rancher
Also if Uncharted is rebooted, I hope the difference is as big as U3 -> U4. Had tons of improvements on every level (maybe less dull climbing though), but it might need it from a story POV. Personally would prefer they go away from the gang into a new squad. I also hope they bring mysticals back, was disappointed they went away from it. Also a good MP game to play. I imagine 2021, 2022 is the date. I think series fatigue will be done by then for me.

That was hilarious LMAO
The first one wasn't only more charismatic but it also filled a good spot with the tropical island settings.
Sly: modern-stealth-platformer
Ratchet: sci-fi-shooter-platformer
Jak: tropical island-pure platformer
Those 3 really went well together imo. I guess Ape Escape could fill Jak's place too, but it's kinda different. It's less focused in challenges and more in exploration. That's what I think at least.
Lol nah...just in case some warriors really were butt-hurt. That Xbox thread is the new hotness!
Ghost of Tsushima canceled confirmed.
I was somewhat with this until "Final Fantasy VII Remake Launch Trailer".
Yeah, if this was E3 2021 maybe.
Uncharted sells, Jak won't. Also there's a clear and definite lack of third person adventure games.
Doubling Beyond is nice, but opening higher than HR is even better.
A ND Uncharted game sells.
An Uncharted from an unproven studio is going to be an accomplishment if it sells the same amount.
