Now that we are one day way from AstroBot's release and the shut down of Concord I must say .... a soul for a soul.

Come with be brothers, let's sacrifice everyone at Firewalk and offer their souls to our savior Team Asobi.

(I don't think it's needed but I'm going to clarify it anyway, this is a joke I don't condone violence against anyone just because they are terrible at their job).

We already sacrificed Japan Studio for Team Asobi lol.

Space Marine 2. Visions of Mana. Gundam Breaker 4. Astrobot. New but well-reviewed SP games (2 with MP options) within the same 2 weeks a trend chasing 8 year sin development flop.

Tbf, Visions of Mana developers just got shutdown right when the game released, but point still made.

Nope that was for the ps5 success in the middle of a health and economic crisis so the sacrifice of Japan Studio saved Sony and Astro will be the child of that event because Sony lived long enough for it to exist. Just beautiful lol.

I choose to believe Concord and Firewalk sacrifice will lead us to awesome things too.

Still got Fairgame$ from Haven and whatever live service Bend Studio is currently working on. Don't count your chickens until they hatch yet lol.

Marathon isn't looking good at all either. So there still may be some rough waters ahead.

ok first of all I completely forgot when Japan Studio was restructured LOL, I thought that happened in the first years of the ps4 and it wasn't so that's why I had to edit my comment for the sake of the joke.

I don't know if Heaven is going to be a good dev or not, I think the name of their game is terrible and the first trailer was meh but the description sounds interesting enough on paper so I'm 50/50 about it.

Now let's make something clear Bungie and Bend aren't bad developers, they are good developers. Days gone is a solid game with a very slow first half that didn't got the sales number Sony wanted in their first year but since has sold more than 7 million copies and judging from the comments that the ex director makes about everything I think most of the problems with the game came from the Director of the game and the Sony administration not from Bend itself. Different to Haven I have full confidence in bend.

Bungie just released what for many fans is their best job in almost 10 years, what happened to the studio was once again thanks to the a rotten administration but this time it was the Bungie administration. We haven't seen anything from Marathon, the only thing we know about the game is that it went hero based and that isn't a bad thing if the game is good enough. Concord didn't fail because it was a hero game, it failed because the only good thing about the game was the technical aspect, everything else was bland. So no, we don't know enough to say it isn't looking good and that report of Bungie employees "don't feeling good about the game" was about the release date not the game itself. After what happened with Concord I doubt Sony will rush any of their remaining services.

We also have have Media Molecule supposedly making a service, their games have been platforms of creations without monetization for years. They have enough experience with what a service is so they fave my full confidence.

The new studio making a MOBA. I was more interested when that game didn't have a whole studio behind it but they are only 40 people, people Sony saved from being fired so I don't even going to act like they shouldn't have another service because that studio may no longer exist next year.

The game from the COD guy. There was a report last week that is going to be fantasy not just Sony's COD so I'm kind of interested.

Realistically only Haven's game and the Horizon multiplayer worry me. Everything else I have faith in the developers, a game isn't bad just because it is a service.



Yep same design in that official image as the leaked PS5 Pro sketch that was shown a few days ago. We'll be hearing more very soon.

I'm not the only one who finds it funny that PlayStation's idea for Pro console designs is to add more ridges to the Slim model, right? With the PS4, they added an extra layer from the Slim to Pro. It seems pretty similar hear from the Slimmer PS5 to this Pro design.
