God, if I have to look at Brianna Banks fake boobies any longer, I'm jump'n out the window!
I'm so bored, and this is what I end up doing with my couple of days off. Damn!

What are you up to? Playing any games?


(I think a mod deleted my Brianna Banks Pic! :lol )

david go to microsoft


Good for him. Any news on what Mr Jaffe's doing these days?


I have a sneaking suspicion that Twisted Metal is being given a super swanky PS3 make over by a totally new team and not by Jaffe himself.

It could certainly be a PSN title being developed by an internal team at Sony Santa Monica or perhaps a new team much like Slant Six's work on SOCOM: Confrontation. Or perhaps a team that's already doing very well under Sony at the moment....hmmmm..



Evolution.....? /Speculation

Is that black bar so you can see the XMB still? If so, :lol


No the bar is just there to cover the glory shot! A friend of mine here was fool'n around.
I'm building one for him and believe me its way worse! XMB isn't covering crap in this one!

Damn Busty, you don't like Jaffe do you?
 
Is this going to be another Busty and Firewire having a private chat thread?

Anyway, I highly doubt Jaffe is going to MS. Setting up an indie studio for downloadable games across all platforms, more likely.
 
He was in Alabama and didn't come to see me...one of the few Southern GAF members!

I'm excited to hear the news, whatever it is. Sounds like it really will be a huge change.
 
Seriously, what's up with all the 1up hinting in this thread? I understand you guys want your boy redeemed but that shit is annoying. Stop being cockteases.

:O...WHAT!!!!! Where the hell did you get the impression that I don't like Jaffe?

I do like Jaffe!!! In fact I really like Jaffe. He's a man that wears his heart on his sleeve. He clearly believes in what Sony are doing with the PS3 and indeed PSN as a whole. It's refeshing to see someone like Jaffe who had linked to larger scale productions going back and making smaller more accesible games.

I just don't get all this apcoalyptic talk surrounding his future. Though he might go to MS, he hasn't exactly been kind about them in the past. He said something to the effect of, "...when MS see what we have they are going to shit themselves..." about Sony's showing at E3 last year.

My previous rants in this thread (including Shane Kim...still find that funny) have been about some other posters in this thread with their......ahhh, what's the point.

Despite my earlier statement about it being obvious that Jaffe was getting his own Sony studio... I'd now like to see him going it alone, cross platform and EPIC. Just to see what you'd have to say on it! :D
 
Big David Jaffe Announcement... Does this mean I'll finally get my Calling All Cars Bobblehead for kicking his ass in his own game the day it came out?? :D
 
How is Calling All Cars doing anyway?

When I get a PS3 I was interested in downloading that game.... is the online community still there for it?

I've prepared a handy bullet point guide for every eventuality.

Jaffe to MS/XBLA - "Clearly he's just gone where the money is......"

Jaffe to Nintendo - "Jaffe's a Father now and feels that with this new frame of mind he wants to create games that he can play with his whole family. And for that, I have the upmost respect.

Jaffe to Gizmondo/Swedish Mafia - "Motherf*cker gone crazy!!!!"

It's fun as hell and you must get it now. Best multiplayer experience on the PS3 to date imo, online AND offline.

They don't have Cracker Barrel or Waffle House in California?

I guess i'm never leaving the south haha

But what will you do without your choice of Waffle Houses on either side of an Interstate for your cravings for suspect hashbrowns and scalding coffee?!?
 
Whatever it is, Jaffe better cuzz along with the message.

"$%#&in' good !%@ news, bitches!!"

Actually, all kidding aside, my inside sources which have been right on all but 23 occasions tell me that:

He is making Halo 4. So what.

No, but one can always dream ;)
Although Jaffe did an amazing job creating the original GoW, some would argue Cory Barlog exceeded expectations with the sequel. With that said, I have no problems with Cory keeping that torch for 3.

Staying OT: I think Jaffe is going to announce his new (Sony funded) studio along with maybe some hints on what he's got cooking inside. I also would not be surprised if the game he is allowed to talk a little about has some connection to TM but the game is probably not what we are thinking. I don't think it's a "new" TM but maybe an HD version of an existing game (TM:BO?) or maybe even one of the PS1 games.
 
I'm guessing it's going to be something, well, rather normal. Just him opening his new independent company under Sony or making games for Sony only. PSN games or maybe some new epic game under his new development studio for the Ps3.

Some really :O predictions.

-David Jaffe goes to Wii development only or Xbox360 only.

-David Jaffe makes multiplatform games. Arcade games, maybe epic games on all platforms.

I doubt the later two will come true. The first one is most likely.
 
obviously the "big" is in quotes because he's going to EA Sports Big and getting Kratos put in NFL/NBA Street and all their other games.

ps. Just FYI, the game alot of you guys seems to think we are working on, we are not. Sorry to dissapoint :(
What? Your profile says you're on an Ubisoft campus and you're posting as if you're at Incog or Sony Santa Monica
 
here's what sam kennedy posted on the 1up forums:

Not sure if you guys saw this, but David Jaffe posted on his blog that he's going to have a big announcement this friday. Finally, we'll be able to hear more about the new studio he's forming with Incognito founder Scott Campbell.

They are focusing on PSN games - they're using the Warhawk/Calling All Cars engine for their first game.

Source: http://boards.1up.com/zd/board/message?board.id=games&thread.id=266996

If true, looks like they are sticking with Sony / PSN titles using the Warhawk engine and it's a bunch of ex-incog guys.
 
PLZ FOR THE LOVE OF ZEUS DAVID MAKE GOD OF WAR 31!!!11

ill give ya mah babies!!

edit...so ah i read above and my dreams have been shattered

double edit : wait isnt cory making god of war 3!?

THERE IS HOPE!
 
Did anyone actually expect Sony to be this aggressive with the whole e-distro game angle? I expected it from MS due to its focus on online, but it's a bit surprising to me that Sony is onboard the idea to this extent.

so, what's the game alot of you guys seem to think they are working on, Twisted Metal or next-gen GoW? HMMM.
Neither. Jaffe said as much and God of War is Barlog's baby now.

If you think carefully about Home, then you know they simply HAVE to do this.
