Oh no, on the contrary we're losing fuel on this train :)

If anything i prefer that to other insiders who keeps teasing when there's already a risk everything blows up in the open.

I know nothing. Honest. This is just a man being delusional at 4:13 in the morning while he's staring at cheesecake recipes on the internet. I'm baking a Cheesecake for this event btw, so if you have any tips GAF, do let a man know. I've got a few secrets up my sleeve, but I've only baked good but not amazing cheesecakes. This time it will be different.

The PlayStation Cheesecake.

I doubt either will. Insomniac would probably want to for the money, but I don't think Respawn wants to under most circumstances. Zampella loves Microsoft too much, going back to his MW2 co-marketing days. EA will be more than happy to oblige, Peter Moore is Xbox connected.

I think in both cases MS will get the opportinity to stay exclusive for a certain amount of money to the studio/publisher.

If they are willing to pay that we shall see.

I think Respawn would sooner let Microsoft moneyhat a new IP before putting its name on a multiplatform Titanfall. EA would be brought in as a consolation publisher just to keep up appearances of unprecedented third party partnerships.
 
Well, you can say the same thing about Yakuza Ishin...
Just give up man, it's Sega
heaps of japanese friends said that even in english, Ishin would be very hard to understand because you need historical reference to get some parts of the plot.

we will never know...

and this BR on you username, are you brazilian?

You remember Zampella's reaction to the exclusivity announcement? I have no idea where you're getting this Respawn/MS love-in idea from.

Respawn are a tiny developer who were hoping to get in early and establish a franchise, they've been fucked over by MS moneyhatting the game.

I do remember it. I also realize that Zampella is a great actor and PR man.

"The greatest trick the devil ever pulled," and all that yada yada.

And based on this I believe that MS will just talk to EA and not Respawn if they want TF2 ... it seems Respawn themselves have not much to say in the matter.

I couldn't care less about whatever relationship there is between Ms/Respawn but i find it very difficult to believe Zampella had no idea what EA were doing Respawn's IP.

You can't be that fucking oblivious to how someone else treats your property.

Or maybe he got some shitty lawyers.

Not to mention that his shitty lawyers were then uncharacteristically lucid for their trial against Activision, or so this oblivious-ness would imply.
 
As for Sunset Overdrive. The game has failed to light up the sales charts and its profit performance can be described as lukewarm at best. This is not something I'm saying with a grin, because I really want the game to succeed to see a sequel. The bigger question is not if Sunset Overdrive comes to PS4- it's if it even GETS a sequel.

I've had that feeling about SO. Do we have any sales figures yet, or reasonable estimates? Seems to me that it did moderately, but will probably sink quickly in UK & EU due to coming out at a very busy time against a lot of bigger established brands.

The thing in these threads is that you never know if these insiders are just trolling or actually hinting at something, as crazy as they sound. Its very annoying, especially considering how they take half of every page of discussion.

This is complete nonsense bullshit in its purest, most magnificent form. If you're making dumb speculations like this which is contrary to all common sense, I think you need to provide reasons and preferably evidence to justify such stupidity.

It did 110K in Oct NPD, of course this doesn't include digital sales and bundles.

It wasn't that Respawn didn't know EA had the publishing rights, they just didn't know EA canceled the PlayStation ports until shortly before MS announced the life-long exclusivity, which was because the deal literally didn't exist until just before Respawn were told.

Just after, they confirmed it would not happen again, that their next game would be on PS4, and during E3 their community manager also confirmed TF2 for PS4.

Only the blindest of fanboys could see a conspiracy in this.

I'm sure you can, she was on the GiantBomb podcast, and they were discussing the 'news' article someone had posted confirming it.

googling "titanfall 2 on ps4" has produced alot of interesting reading. one in paticular that Respawn has become fond of the PS4, certainly inspires hope for future titles. also i saw some articles similar to what you said. nice!!!

Titanfall coming to PS4 in some way would be one of the best things for me!

The only way I will believe Respawn's ignorance on the whole matter is if they show up at PSX to announce TF2 as a PS4 exclusive.

Yeah, it's as though people aren't familiar with Uncharted 3 or The Last of Us...

Heck, even Uncharted 2 had shades of it with their skin packs.

Uncharted 2 had the best skin packs! Anyone else remember this!? I would love if they did it again with Uncharted 4!

Didnt play that franchise in the last years, but a remake with the Graphics of the movie trailer (according to insomniac?) and back to the roots ist definetely a must have for me

im making a Ham!!!
 
You know what would be the one announcement to shut down GAF. I'm shocked you guys haven't thought of it yet.

Grand Theft Auto 6 - Exclusive. Now as YosP would say, let me dream.
I suspect there won't be a GTA6 till next generation. I believe GTAV will be an open world game on nearly every platform and cross playable with DLC and micro transactions keeping it fresh. Something like an earlier version of the PS3 Home and GTAIV where bowling, card games, casinos, stores, racing games, hunts, puzzle games and more are all part of the same open world.

This paragraph in the announcement has me very excited:
Our California and North Carolina studios are making the game together, marking our deepest cross-country collaboration to date. Many of the original developers responsible for the very first Ratchet & Clank game have an opportunity to create the stunning Solana Galaxy that they–and our fans–have always wanted to see. Longtime Design Director Brian Allgeier, Studio Director Chad Dezern, and Game Director Shaun McCabe will lead the project.

Sounds like they are putting their all into this, compare that to the later PS3 games which were not handled in such a big way.
