Support NeoGAF

[GribbleGrunger]

Perhaps an outside chance that they acquired an IP?

... From Activision

Gaf could Crash tomorrow!

 

[Sword Of Doom]

That got me thinking... Microsoft announces Gears purchase, so what does Sony do? Announce an exclusive partnership with Epic for their next-gen fps franchise the next day. Probably won't happen especially the next day, but the fallout here would be fun to watch.

Am I crazy for thinking Sony is broke and we should stop thinking exciting thoughts like this? I'm sorry for the negativity but at this point it sure feels that way

 

[Caayn]

Looks like a Vita game:

Hype levels fading

 

[stryke]

Shacknews isn't a very large media outlet (or at least I don't perceive it to be).

I'm starting to think this will be some sort of feature article, something akin to IGN's History of Naughty Dog/SSM piece.

 

[Paches]

The Last Guardian, FF15, and KH3.

 

[Takao]

Crash Bandicoot and Spyro the Dragon finally come to Vita's PSone Classics section.

 

[d34thfrom4bov3]

Wasn't there supposed to be some kind of 'slim' announcement. Vita 2k or Vita tv reveal?

Just because they got a debt downgrade dosen't mean we won't get exclusiives or playstation is going away. take that shit to gamefaqs

When I reread the tweet, the wording seems to imply the above to me.

Actually, Sony buying out Gamefly, or announcing a partnership with Gamefly wouldn't be out of the realm of possibility. PSNow fundamentally changes the rental market for Gamefly, but they don't seem too spooked. Maybe there's a reason for it.

 

[Takao]

Looks like a Vita game:

That tweet is in response to a Twitter user asking about a personal project:

OMG, is your cat game a PS4 exclusive?!?!?

Andrew is saying his game isn't targeting consoles.

 

[darkside31337]

Hype levels fading

Its not, read the rest of his tweets.

My guess is some hot new TLG scoops.

Spoiler

not

 

[dugdug]

For those saying its a Vita game, that was a joke response on Twitter from Andrew to someone else. Notice he said "my game"

 

[boredandlazy]

Sony donating $750,001 to shacknews for a documentary about the website?

 

[Gleethor]

Shacking news.

 

[Rogue_Ledr]

This is what I'm thinking.

I sure hope so!

Lord knows its been long enough.

 

[shinobi602]

People thinking there's a game waiting to be announced are really setting themselves up for disappointment. Studios don't announce games through game media outlets, come on.

Most likely an exclusive preview into a PS4 game that's light on info so far.

 

[Dr. Kitty Muffins]

Can't tell if they mean exclusive game announcement or just an exclusive article.

I lean toward exclusive article.

 

[Sword Of Doom]

Yeah I hope you're right. It's not just the credit downgrade though. It's the way they released a ton of games on the PS3 the same year they're releasing a new console. Behavior like that suggests a company that doesn't the resources their competition (MS) does.

 

[Liberty4all]

This Gen SCEA has worked extra hard to build bridges with the enthusiast crowd. We will see announcements coming from many non traditional sources this Gen IMHO.

 

[Nafai1123]

Since when is the last week of January the best time to announce stuff?

The Order?

Or maybe Driveclub.

 

[VanWinkle]

Crash Bandicoot and Spyro the Dragon finally come to Vita's PSone Classics section.

I would be very happy with this.

 

[ThatStupidLion]

Chip and Dale rescue rangers HD remake

I don't get it .

Do you think they make those games for free or something ?

 

[Bad_Boy]

Doesnt say it's a game. Not getting my hopes up.

 

[Futurevoid]

DriveClub release date....please?

 

[Teletraan1]

The haters in this thread try to stop me cant stop my shine. CANT.STOP.MAH.SHINE.

 

[Bad_Boy]

i think we were supposed to get an update in january. so... i think it's info about the update.

 

[StoopKid]

i think we were supposed to get an update in january. so... i think it's info about the update.

it's probably this.

 

[TheRealTalker]

Still betting it will be a "History of" article


Good Night GAF for Tomorrow

 

[EdReedFan20]

Maybe it's to do with the PSNow Beta. Wasn't it supposed to start at the end of January?

 

[GoofsterStud]

Prepares the itsfnnothin.gif

[GribbleGrunger]

The comment in brackets is related to the question about the 'Cat' game. If It's the Crash acquisition Gaf will explode tomorrow.

 

[mrjohill]

I think it may be #driveclub release date. Or maybe it's that jrpgvita stuff

 

[SwiftDeath]

Gaf would certainly crash if that happened but I have a feeling it's not going to be anything to interesting. We'll see though

 

[Sword Of Doom]

I don't get it .

No of course not but it tells me that they can't afford to release those games on a newer platform with a smaller install base

Edit: anyways I don't wanna be a downer. I love my PS4 and I'm excited for this generation. Just tired of seeing the competition try to dictate the market with money.

 

[shwimpy]

gamefly app for playstation platforms.

 

[Kumo]

My body is ready.... to be underwhelmed. :|

 

[StoopKid]

No of course not but it tells me that they can't afford to release those games on a newer platform with a smaller install base

this makes zero sense.

Why did they release killzone on ps4 then ?

 

[Salex_]

Yeah I hope you're right. It's not just the credit downgrade though. It's the way they released a ton of games on the PS3 the same year they're releasing a new console. Behavior like that suggests a company that doesn't the resources their competition (MS) does.

I don't get your point. They released all of those games for the PS3 and still announced more PS3 and PS4 exclusives for this year than MS. I hear this talk of Microsoft's "war chest" but they aren't doing anything with it. The last 4 years were barren on the 360. I'd expect a steady flow of exclusives this year considering how they stopped supporting the 360 awhile ago. Where's the investment in 1st party studios so they can have a good amount of games coming along with multiplats?

There's no "lack of resources" excuse for Microsoft.

 

[maquiladora]

Sub-Cranky tier news incoming.

 

[GribbleGrunger]

No of course not but it tells me that they can't afford to release those games on a newer platform with a smaller install base

Sometimes logic looks like wishful thinking to me.

 

[Mr.Fresh]

#DRIVECLUB Release date.

 

[BoboBrazil]

One of 3 things.

1. Epic exclusive game(unlikely this would be revealed here, unless they want to do a nelson haha to Microsoft)

2. Playstation Now beta(highly likely and what I believe it to be)

3. New firmware(they don't really announce these through external media sites.)

 

[SolidSnakex]

Yeah I hope you're right. It's not just the credit downgrade though. It's the way they released a ton of games on the PS3 the same year they're releasing a new console. Behavior like that suggests a company that doesn't the resources their competition (MS) does.

They released Spyro: Year of the Dragon, Wild ARMS 2, Hot Shots Golf 2, Medievil 2, Legend of Dragoon, Cool Boarders '01 and a bunch of the yearly sports games at the time in 2000, which was the same year they released the PS2. That's just how Sony has always operated with their consoles. They try to support them even when they're releasing a new console.

The Sony corporation isnt as broke as people seem to think. If im reading the qtr report right as of Sept 30 they had 7.4 billion in cash. So if something is to be had to help the gaming section long term they have money to make moves
