Forums - Sony Discussion - Why have SCE Japan Studio developed another horse racing sim for PS3?

SCE Japan has been absolutly useless besides the new Hot Shots.



Around the Network

SCE also developed WKC Folklore, Eye Of Judgment, and various PSN games so they are'nt completely useless



More casual stuff? Sony London going completely casual was enough...

But it's still not much more than last gen. I mean, we're still getting Siren, etc. from SCEJ, and Sony London's only decent game last gen was Singstar anyway.

No wonder the PS3's struggling in Japan.

 

You kind've forgot a biggie.  Polyphony Digital, the creators of Sony's biggest IP?  C'mon.

They also have Clap Hanz (the Hot Shots Golf guys) and Team Siren.

But yeah, they've been really weak this gen thus far.  Where's the usual stuff like Ape Escape?  And new IPs?



I totally forgot about Prolyphony and Team Siren, Team ICO is also gonna impress.

bring an HD patapon multiplayer at least....

team icooooo need your gameeeeeee



There is actually a fan base for these games in Japan.



Actually they haven't done that bad I mean none of their games have been blocbusters but are nice additions to the PS library, GT5 will be the biggest PS# game, WKC will be a hit, Siren was good, The eye games are neat, and of course team ico will reawaken.



Seems like SCE Japan is currently being run by toddlers... there is no other way they can make this "wonderful" decisions.

Boo!

They have Clap Hanz, Polyphony Digital, the guys who make Patapon (they also made Ape Escape), the other team that makes LocoRoco.

Those a few that weren't mentioned by mm.
