I might be the only one thinking this, but I don't think sony will give her a studio or a team in an existing studio.

ND as a studio is more important to Sony that Amy, and when Amy left, she left on bad terms. When her friend (dude from Firefly) was mouthing off and Amy was making comments about ND, she took aim and shot at one of Sonys cash cows. Since then she hasn't tried to make up the relationship and if anything, getting a star wars project made her friend mouth of more.

She has flip flopped on disliking EA to now understanding why they had to take the project in a new direction and now she is praising sony. This seems more like a cry for help than actual compliments.

I would like to make this very clear - I'm not saying ND are gods, I'm not saying EA was right or Amy is bad. I'm just saying Amy has burnt bridges and although she is an amazing writer, I don't think she is like Corey B where she can write, design and direct a full game successfully. Going Indie must be more difficult than she thought and possibly she needs financial support.

Based on the bridges she has burnt, I think MS will be more likely to take her on than Sony, even if they do it just for the PR. Whatever went down at ND wasn't good. The last thing any good business would want to do is hire someone who took indirect shots at the cash cow and then throw money at them. It would be causing beef between staff and studios for nothing.

I mean, we don't really know that now do we? For all we know, there could be talks going on right now and they're just waiting for something to be finalised before making an announcement. There's probably a low chance of this being the case, but until there's confirmation... Lol


Lol not saying it is an impossibility, or Amy and Sony won't have a sit down, just saying I've been at meetings when these types of things have happened and it's never gone in favour of the party that mouthed off or that was vocal. It's usually a case of, "okay, we are good people so we will forgive you, but we that don't mean we forget what you've done. Let's move on, you keep doing what you need to do and we won't interfere and vice versa."

 

If sony do set her up or help her, it will be to stop MS using Amy for PR. I can just hear the announcement,  "To add to our already growing list of unprecedented studios, let us welcome Amy. The creator of Uncharted andother great franchises."
