Glad at the timing. It will give Sony time to repurpose their slides and information to counteract whatever Microsoft says.

Oh yeah, totally forgot about those. That's certainly better than nothing, thanks!

TLG will only be shown if MS shows actual Halo 5 footage confirmed.

I'm actually more excited to see some new IP rather than a TLG re-birth.

Have you played sotc and ico ?

Yeah I love ICO. I didn't care much for SOTC. TLG has just been on hiatus for so long, I don't have a lot of confidence in what it will eventually become, if it ever does get released.

To their credit... the Ninty and MS hype trains or longer then ours
I hope it stays like this for the coming weeks
I don't want to run out of landscape ideas lol

both syphon filter dark mirror and logan's shadow were really underrated. I was blown away by those games, i couldn't believe how good they were. but, golden abyss was rather poor...
they must have suffered a lot of staff turnover after finishing those syphon filter games. who knows how much talent is left at the studio? i am interested in their next game though

Around 60+ people, assumed. It's extremely hard to pinpoint how many talent are at Bend, because a lot of them at LinkedIn simply tag their job as SCEA, not necessarily specifying their exact studio location of Oregon.

Them CGI farms will be ready to churn out some sweet last minute retaliation in form of:
- Colony Wars Morpheus (if MS shows some kind of VR device or they team up with Oculus)
- Legend of Dragoon 2 and FFVII remake (if MS has some solid JRPG exclusives)
- GT7 (if MS shows Horizon 2)
...

that is sad. i hope they retained the talented staff that worked on those two syphone filter games and hopefully they will get their time in the limelight once they show their PS4 game.
Guerrilla Cambridge is in the same boat.

I still have this crazy fear that Project Beast won't be shown

I'm in - what hype vehicles have seats available?

Cambridge and Bend are two studios that are somewhat in an identity crisis.
This might sound like a sad thing to both studios, but personally, I was hoping that Cambridge and Bend could 'inherit' Killzone and Uncharted from Guerilla/ND and use that as a platform to expand their studio on the back of established franchises that will at least be profitable on the back of the brand.
And then use that increased resources to pave the way and build their own studio brand, which right now, is neither here nor there due to years of being less relevant in the WWS family.

This is exactly what I was saying last year. ND should have handed Uncharted to Bend. Look at what happened at ND, the main person behind Uncharted is gone...they should invested in a new ip.
Great point though

LOL!!
Nightengale
Member
Well, to be fair, thinking back... ND needs to build those high-quality Uncharted PS4 assets first, no? =p
With that being said, I still hope that Bend's new game can deliver on its own. If Bend can pave their own destiny, that's even better than being forced to be an Uncharted factory.

True. I hope their game is shown at e3.

To be honest with you I would prefer it if ND's debut on PS4 was a new IP.
I would take a new IP every time on a new platform, even if we are talking about devs of my favourite series.
It doesn't have to be something radically different each time. Just new story, setting, different approach to gameplay etc.
This is also the reason I am really hoping that SSM are NOT making their debut on PS4 with another GoW. Please!

You're in luck, because they're debuting in a few months time with a new IP*!
*one-year old, released on last-gen.

Just rsvp'd for the Sony conference... Between MS in the morning and Sony at night, I'm not sure I'll be able to survive all of the hype.
If I don't make it, it was a pleasure riding the hype train with you all.

I wouldnt mind if ND came out with a new IP either. I mean, each new gen they brought new gems! But Im very excited for a new Uncharted game, that was my favorite IP last gen.

Well er...yeah, aside from re-makes I mean
Listen, if it does transpire in the end that nearly all of Sony's major internal devs have been working on/worked on sequels for their PS4 debut (Killzone, Infamous, Uncharted 4, God of War 4) I will be seriously pissed. That's two sequels too many imo.
Surely this would be the first time that the transition from an old gen to a new has been so stuffed with sequels in terms of AAAA development from Sony WWS.

Well, be concerned for Sucker Punch/Nate Fox at least... The dude seems to like inFamous a bit too much.
inFamous sequels could involve any age, gender [or] time, like Assassins Creed spiritually
As for the rest of the studios, I expect ND and GG to flex their creativity muscles soon. As for SSM... personally I suspect Barlog's project is still going to be a GoW project, but let's hope it's a huge departure enough that it's almost a new IP.
A Norse mythology take on GoW, borrowing from Valkyria Profile ( Einhenjar Kratos and a Valkyrie ) would be my ideal GoW reboot.

My mind would implode on itself if they showed a new God of War that actually looked interesting and not more of the same yet again.
Coulomb_Barrier

Yeah I would have no problem with a different take on GoW at all. Would be quite exciting.
But slightly concerning about SP. Not saying the Infamous games aren't good, but why not try something else? They are quite the wizards utilising the PS4's power, why not create something new and incredible.
I keep saying this, but ND is a prime example. Despite having made the critically acclaimed Uncharted series and after having released an U3, what did they do?
They took a bit of a risk. They made a new i.p that went on the sell around 7 million copies (and counting) and won 200 GotY awards. Sure, they hit the jackpot with that game, but I don't buy this corporate nonsense about new i.p's being too risky. Fuck that.
Every gamer should always ask for new i.p's otherwise the life will be sucked out of the industry if you tolerate more of the same all of the time.

If TLG and Project Beast would be presented like The Last of Us gameplay, that would be goat.

I wish I knew wtf was going on with the camera at the beginning there.

afair, yosp was apologizing afterwards because the direction team did a pretty bad work.
Isn't it just because the screen is blank? All the audience can hear are the noises and there's no need for the camera to be on the screen at that point, unless I've misunderstood and you're questioning the weird panning shit?
That was Gamescom, no?
Heck yeah! My most anticipated game.

2am here. One of the few perks of the job I currently have is that I easily made sure I'm not in work on the 10th.
God I hate this.

Was it last E3 with that infuriatingly incompetent cameraman shooting the presentation? Or was that the PS4 reveal event?
As stated above, Gamescom.
