Who's money are these guys burning through?



Legend11 - Sony's.

And, I wouldn't say "burning through". As we don't know whether the game broke even, made a loss, or made a profit. And they're still selling a few thousand a week.

I'm willing to bet that they've made a profit on the game by now.



Didn't Heavenly Sword have a huge budget?

Didn't the game have a 20+ million dollar budget?  Is that even including the advertising for the game?  If that game broke even then they must have gold toilets installed in most game development studios.



HS sold around 800 K so far i believe so I doubt it was a waste. Also, I suspect the investment for the engine will carry forward into new games in the same way it does for Insomniac so I doubt they're burning money.

I like HS but it was too short, also without giving too much away I thought it finished well and closed of its main character... so I'd rather I new IP that builds on the engine/good points of HS while avoiding the bad.

And those shots do look like a new IP...



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

Only if your imagination comes true. Otherwise it just a number created by the people who want to see it go down as a financial failure.

I like sequels in video games (unlike movies) because the franchise can actually improve. They can work out all the little kinks and really enrich the experience for those who loved the first installment.

My guess is it is Heavenly Sword 2, but it could be something else.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S.
