Platinum Games teases E3 news

Realistically, I'll be happy if they just have a full Bayo 2 trailer. 101 is out in Sept. and I'm not sure anything they'd show could be as exciting playing that in a few months, haha. I'm not even worried about seeing any more trailers for it.
 
Good news from my favorite developer? Yes please!

I'm hoping it's a new title (new IP or Vanquish 2 preferably), but I'm assuming it has to do with Bayo 2, W101, or PC releases.
 
I'm imagining Nintendo is gonna show off their games a bit, but I really hope this is talking about a new announcement. Pretty sure PG was in that list of PS4 devs Sony put out. Maybe this has something to do with that?
 
Not getting my hopes up for Bayo 2 being playable. but man I'd love to see a proper reveal trailer at E3.

If it was apart of Nintendo's Best Buy demos though I'd be planning a trip out to Houston right now
 
Yeah you are right. They could never make 4 games at the same time while 1 is nearly done,1 is a port and 1 is 100% work.

It's a relatively small studio (a poster a few posts above you said roughly 150 employees), I don't think there's a good chance that they've been working on 4 games at the same time. Especially because they've been really busy last year, too. The Rising team has finished the game just a few months ago, I don't think they are already able to show off what they are doing next.

More importantly it's not about whether they could or couldn't. Nothing in the tweet implies that they'll announce a new game. It's just stating that it'll be an awesome E3 for Platinum fans. And how couldn't it be? They are showing their first hoorah in the PC space, something that was long requested by fans. They'll show the sequel to their most popular game for the first time. They present the new game by their most popular director. That's pretty damn awesome.
 
They have to have multiplat projects in the works right? Otherwise they're taking a huge risk having most of their eggs in the Wii U basket.

you win.
 
There already have three titles to show, Bayo 2, W101, Rising PC. That's a large amount for any studio and enough for a tease. Its way to early to annouce anything else in my opinion.
 
Considering that W101 is out in August, I think it should be in the final stages.

I thought that was harsh when someone retweeted that, then I checked his feed. That was posted right after a long string of him retweeting people asking him if she would be in Smash 4. Made it actually pretty funny.

Yeah, Smash fanboys are the worst. Glad he knocked them.

Are PC ports typically shown off at E3?

I don't really think Rising PC is what we're expected to be excited about
 
If Platinum Games were to release a sequel to Anarchy Reigns, I hope they pack in more single-player content. Maybe add some RPG elements as well, like the ability to level up and gain skills, buy items, interact with NPCs in towns etc. I doubt it'll happen though... :/ In any case, I hope they'll announce something good at E3.

I would honestly rather see something thematically closer to "MadWorld", personally.

The main things I would want would be basically the option for a more "standard" control scheme (similar to Anarchy's), a more extensive combat engine, along with MadWorld's nice bit of environmental interaction. It's like they always came so close to being the kind of "modern day old school brawler" that God Hand was, but for a lack of a few things...

In any case, anything that would give us yet another trip to Jack Cayman's side of the equation would be appreciated.
