I'm interested in Bluepoint too. I think they are working on something interesting.
And yes, Sly, please come back! ;_;

Does Bluepoint have a team that can make original games instead of remasters?

Nah, they only want to do remasters.
They run a successful business remastering beloved games. No time wasted shopping around prototypes, hiring and firing people, or shutting down studio when AAA budget game bombs.

Bluepoint doing Lair remastered is my guess

It's obvious bluepoint are doing the ape escape 3 remaster which is why it would seem the ps2 classic version is no longer coming!!!!
Believe!
Believe!
Sadly it doesn't seem like they're lying, all their job listings are for VR games.
The problem is that people don't know this is only part of Dreams. They need to be clearer about that. Similar to LBP there will be a full game/campaign to play through. The creation tools are totally optional.
But IF they get this running at 60 fps for PS VR then it will be an amazing experience and likely the go-to game.

MLB the show(yes it's a prime release come at me never gets recognition)

GTSport unless the next delay pushes it to later than God of War
I'll be interested to see how much of a push Uncharted The Lost Legacy gets
DOH! Of course it's MLB - being an expat Brit in Australia MLB isn't really a game that features on my radar.

Yeah I thought probably GTS, but LL is due when, August?

I think Uncharted The Lost Legacy will get a big push and will be out in September. It will also be the only exclusive this Fall besides GT Sport.
The gaming press will go into a frenzy again, saying "no big Fall exclusive from Sony?? Terrible" while somehow still failing to understand Sony's strategy.

It's all good Sony kinda doesn't push it enough which they should imo.
LL has no date as of now I imagine Summer my dream would be may full year after the 4

I agree with the september release date. First week, several weeks before the third party madness starts with Destiny 2 at the end of the month. Also I think Knack 2 will be a September title also. They can have a family friendly bundle with that and Crash this holiday, which would be a great thing to have to counter the Switch in its first holiday
Are there hard dates for any Sony releases after March? Aside from Crash Bandicoot in June, of course. Even smaller/indy-like games and whatnot.
Drawn to Death is out on April 4th

Oh yeah, I forgot about Knack 2. That could be this year. Or very early next.
Still wouldn't change the gaming press' harsh and dumb criticism of not enough PS4 exclusives in the Fall that they give every year. Why wouldn't Sony let third parties carry the Fall?

Completely agree they did an amazing job, I'd love to see it.
I agree, that would be a really cool way to do it.
This. ND tackling a third person scifi space opera is like a dream game.

Yes! Some people here have a hate boner for david cage but many of us are excited especially hearing some of the closed door impressions
Truly the unsung hero of the sony first party studios. Sells consistently well to boot

If Detroit is good that might ease the hate he gets. Idk how people thought of him before Beyond but I know a lot of people thought QD was one of the best devs after Heavy Rain

Detroit's writing will be interesting as its the first Quantic Dream game that isn't written solely by David.
Really liked the LA Noire vibes from what they showed at E3
Cage's setups and actual storylines are great, but the dialogue has been the glaring issue in QD games, and Beyond Two Souls really solidified that, so hopefully this'll fix that up. I loved Heavy Rain, but really disliked Beyond Two Souls (although maybe the nonlinear/backwards nature of the narrative clouded my judgement).

I seem to be one of the few people that thought Heavy Rain was kind of boring but liked Beyond Two Souls.
I enjoyed the gameplay and setup of Beyond Two Souls, but the actual storytelling kinda shit the bed for me, in part due to the backwards and out of order sequence of events.
I'm excited for Detroit because it looks to a return to the investigative stuff I loved about Heavy Rain.
So much this. Of everything that's likely this year, IMO only GTS has the potential to go up against the 3rd parties this year and not suffer.
Oh word? Drawn to Death is out so soon? That's pretty cool. Feels like it's been a minute since that game was announced.
Same. I know a lot of people rag on David Cage, but I really liked Beyond (never played Heavy Rain), warts and all. The writing/dialogue were pretty rough, but I thought the scenario and design were interesting and I loved Ellen Page's performance.

The dialogue count must be insane if the branching story paths really pan out
Those idiots can keep yelling that shit out but it won't matter
This weird anger toward the press for their coverage of SIE's release schedule is sort of off-putting. Very little of that coverage has said, "Sony has failed by not putting out any big games this fall." More often, "It's surprising that Sony isn't realeasing any big games this fall" or "It's crazy/interesting/surprising that PlayStation is doing so well during the fall despite SIE not releasing any major games."
In general, the press is adjusting to major publishers pursuing a whole-year release schedule and I don't think it's true that the press has been "unfair" to Sony. SIE is just the most dramatic exemplar of a bigger trend. Of course their strategy gets talked about.

Sarcasm? Lair was a huge bomb and would make no sense as a remaster.
Bluepoint does not only work only on Sony titles.
I would not be surprised if they are for example working on remastering both Shenmue games for SEGA, or original Mass Effect trilogy for EA. As for Sony properties, Demon's Souls or complete God of War Collection are the most obvious choice.

I don't really think this is true. There's been enough noise about Sony's lack of Holiday titles, like this one
http://www.gameinformer.com/b/featu...at-is-the-ps4-going-to-do-this-christmas.aspx
That Sony has actually had to respond to it
The press has definitely made a big deal out of Sony's lack of big titles during the holiday period. If things are shifting to start to understand having a full year schedule, then i'd argue that's only happening very recently. They've certainly been obsessed with the holiday period for most of the generation. While I think The Last of Us taught Sony a lot as far as positioning goes. I remember some thinking it could underperform because it was being released in a generally dead part of the year and right around E3. Instead it would go on to be ND's best selling game at the time.

Look how many games failed to generate sales in the fall.
-Gears 4
-Titanfall 2
-Dishonored 2
-Watch Dogs 2
All because they got swallowed up by Cod and Battlefield.
