Yeah it sounds like a cool concept but it got cancelled because it wasn't working. Did you guys really wanted them to waste more 3 years on it?
Nah, Horizon was being worked on before hand and started full production late 2013 after Shadowfall released, or something like that.
futuristic; strange planet; strange creatures & dinosaurs
aka
Horizon?
So yeah you don't want 2 games that look that much a like from a first party I assume.
Deep down I wish Sony Santa Monica would have persued a different game and followed through with it. Although they incubate other projects as part of their ex-dev efforts, last gen SSM proper (meaning the studio who ships AAA games) only released God of War 3 and Ascension which were awesome but to me the GoW franchise was starting to wear thin.
If the rumors are true and SSM is developing a new God of War game but in a different setting then I'll be disappointed. I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that if the rumors are true, it'll still be a GoW game. Fast action, hack/slash, roll and dodge, QTEs etc. The core gameplay loop will probably be the same or an iteration of the same core gameplay loop that were the bread and butter of the past GoW games.
I wanted them to do something completely different, something surprising, unexpected etc. Guerilla were the shooter guys, Killzone over and over (mind you I loved those games and would like a remaster) but with Horizon, Guerilla is doing something completely different. From primarily being a FPS dev to making an open-world, rpg with a red headed woman as the main protagonist. Fucking awesome, and that's what I want outta SSM.
Not another GoW game.
Guerrilla Games: No worries, we got you fam!
Hmm, we don't know what they're planning with the series going forward. I have faith in Cory Barlog. He made a great second game, and I know he can do the job with this one as well. I have a feeling they will change the combat mechanics greatly to suit the new mythology. The blades, even though iconic, need to go.

A little too close to home with GG's Horizon, perhaps?
Found a screenshot.
Apparently it just never came together right, which happens sometimes.

I would buy this on day one.Found a screenshot.
I really hope Horizon is going to be good. As a dutch guy, I'd be really proud of GG.
Robot dinosaurs just don't do it for me
Of course a new Dinosaur game would be canceled. The Stars have just stayed aligned to deny any big Dino games from happening currently.
Horizon is a consolation prize, it's kinda dinosaurs but not really. They've been pushing its more robo animals.
Nothing with dinosaurs should be cancelled.
Sorry my mind is refusing to acknowledge this as a real comment. it's simply too crazy to believe
But dinosaurs WERE cancelled.Nothing with dinosaurs should be cancelled.
Was there a reason to why it was canned?
You are a couple million years late saying this.Nothing with dinosaurs should be cancelled.
Well, the new God of War game supposedly has a whole different mythological setting. The setting was a big part of the series, and with that changed/revamped, there's a potential for a whole new slew of kickass and fresh ideas in store.
But they got that chance. It just didn't work out.
This is really surprising to me.
Sony Santa Monica have only output quality top notch titles in the past 10 years or so right?
What gives?
So it was similar to Destiny and Horizon?
Talk about bad luck lol
I barely remember the cartoon but Dino Riders had some awesome toys. the T Rex toy was one of my favorite toysFound a screenshot.
