I liked the demo, I will get it after a price cut. But I hope this and some PS exclusive Franchises finally die to open the way for new IPs like the Last of Us and Playstation All Stars. They should milking dead franchises and start new ones, but I guess we will have to wait until Orbis.

i want you to reread this and ask yourself "does this sound logical?"

Yes it does. Let me explain. This is a stone old franchise that is not profitable has no hype left at all, but still need a lot time and ressources to develop. But instead of trying to reviwe a dead franchise you could try to establish a new one, with the ressources you otherwise would use for the old one.

could you explain to me what a "dead" franchise is?

could you also explain how and why Twisted Metal was a dead franchise before Twisted Metal PS3 came out?

and how does killing older franchises pave the way for newer franchises??

let's make this make sense, Andrew

Really dude? Have you bought Twisted Metall?

A franchise without hype or a big fanbase is almost dead and if it turns out to be mediocre then it is dead. And Twisted Metall had no Hype, and it turned out that the fanbase was not big enough. Twisted Metall and Resistance are almost dead. And instead of trying to bring them back, the studios should focus on making new IPs. Development studios dont have unlimited ressources and most of them can just work on one title at the same time. Eat Sleep Play could have made a new IP while they where working on Twisted Metall, and establish a new profitable franchise.
