Famitsu says 10% so this is obviously a hoax.

RUMOR: Project Beast (From Software/Sony Japan Studio, PS4) [Port begging = ban]
- Thread starter Herla

Media 'industry insiders' that give us all those accurate news lately haven't read the memo.
Seriously now, i'd go for lazy weekend or NDA.
I usually am very critical with rumors, if one thing in them doesn't sound right i call bs immediately, and i'm mostly right in the end.
I have a very good feeling about this one, and everything we've seen look legit to me.
In my opinion those screens ain't 'shopped or anything, if they are fakes then it's a mod and if it's a mod FROM should hire the guy(s) yesterday.

I think they aren't posting anything because all they could do is say "Here are some screenshots from 4chan!" They are likely waiting for comments from Sony so they can actually contribute something to the story.
True, & Understanding, have to make room for next years E3 not to mention TGS & Gamescom, with all this Trademarking sony has been doing lately possibly more info at TGS or Gamescom in regards to their recently trademarked games

I prefer 30fps more than salt.

Yeah 30 fps locked is perfectly fine.
If this is going to stray further from the formula it will probably drop the Souls name. It's not as if it won't sell, considering it's a platform exclusive for a system that has a tiny library so far. The only way I can see two concurrent "Souls" type games is if Project Beast is significantly different in key areas, whether that's thematic (art/tone) or through gameplay.
If that's the case, the team that worked on Dark Souls 2 will probably continue to iterate on it as a multiplatform series. Seeing how well the PC version is doing even with the staggered release is something they have to take advantage of. I think it could be a really good thing to have the more iterative Dark Souls games while having another series experiment in new and different directions.
With all these recent trademarks being filled, I am just wondering how often are games unveiled at E3 before trademarks are filled in. And if that is the case, what's the deal with these recent name grabings. I am just wondering since, nothing with Beast has been filled. Could it mean that we won't see anything in the near future.
The title probably doesn't have "Beast" in it at all. Developers always have these little code names for their games.
I don't think we have anything compelling to suggest it isn't real, and the evidence supporting it is really good. Everything we've seen/heard matches up.

Bloody hell at DemonNite straight up announcing Shadow of the Beast 2 months early.
My favorite insider. No need for crappy spelling, the truth is in plain sight.
Its a shame this E3 seems a lot less leaky then the last one. We knew nearly everything by now last year.

True, the reason people think it will is because Dark Souls was code named Project Dark. So it's not a crazy conclusion to make that it may have beast in the title.
From Software and SCE Japan Studio present: Demon's Souls 2: Guns Up!

i'm thinking the difference will be primarily the former. & i'm hoping that the game is open-ended, rather than as conclusive as demon's & dark were. iow, i'd like a game set in a particular location in a much larger world, leaving things open for further games set in other locations in that same world (yes, i've been reading china mieville
)...Playing Demon's Souls for the 3rd time. Already put 300 hours into it since launch and the encounters are still as tense as ever. One thing I wish Project Beast would bring back that the DaS series didn't are the Pure black and white world tendencies. Just flash it out further with double the outcomes.Really makes coming back a lot more entertaining at least what I feel about DeS.
They can call it pure beauty world and beast world tendency.

Port begging is bannable, can 'frame rate begging' be as well? It's getting really tiresome.

No, but when the same people constantly jump into console threads with the express purpose of complaining about 30fps it does nothing but derail the thread.
You're derailing the thread more than they are.

Nah, having everything leaked ruins the show for me.
We don't even know about the frame rate. Hoping for 60fps is not a bad thing, jeez.

You really like that gif dont you?
I thought I was the only one that noticed...
Hmm, I don't remember there being much leaks last year. No Sony leak, and majority of MS stuff was new. :/

It's a bit premature to say that. I've only had you reply to me this far.
(Edit: (+1 now)And at least I'm not spreading this over multiple threads.
Anyway it was just a question, so if you're basically saying no then I can't really argue about this with a mod can I?
The server median for world tendency was really annoying. If they bring back the Demon's Souls system I'd hope they'd at least make individual progress persistent between sessions.
Yeah, its almost like people want smooth, responsive gameplay in a game where you can probably die in one or two hits.
Yeah that's what should be improved for Project Beast. Always had to log off from PSN to change tendencies for specific items.

I hope this game has vampires in it.
Yeah, it was play offline or wait for an event.

I love Pokken!
I will be really sad if it's an exclusive, I love Dark Souls and Dark Souls 2, but I would be really bothered by the framerate these games usually get on the consoles.
To be honest though, I'm not particularly impressed by these graphics, I know these are very compressed screenshots, but looking at it closely it kinda looks like a slight upgrade from Dark Souls 2, hopefully there will some official info released soon.
I'm hoping for in-game footage.

Lord... I don't expect it to be, but I SO want this at E3. I want to see and know more. PLEASE!
Isn't the series pretty much already "Berserk meets Castlevania"?No, what this game really need is more of this:

The Dragon God must make a return. He deserves an actual battle and not just a puzzle.
I think its nearly a lock for E3. These games are not very popular in the east, it would make no sense to hold it back for TGS assuming they are ready to show it off this year.

Well, it's not, but neither is hoping for better graphics (at 30FPS) or really even hoping for a port. None of that is offensive, but when you have to read it over and over for weeks and months in every thread for every game, it does become tiresome.

He'll just end up being a disappointment like Old Iron King and most other bosses that large. Give me more one on one fights like Artorias and Allant please.
Strong ass NDA. Especially if it was a E3 secret.

They're pretty damn popular in the east - DkS2 entered at No. 1 in Japan didn't it?
