This. Sony Pictures is it's own, already existing branch of the company. Having them hire people to make movies with Sony gaming IP shouldn't impact the gaming side at all.They'll need to expand their footprint some how. If the shows / movies are good, then it's great. I don't have a problem with it. It's just a matter of quality. That's my biggest concern. If games are first, then I really don't have a problem with it.
The quasi equivalence to MS in 2013 being thrown around in shade by some folks is not only moronic but it also shows how scarred some people truly are still from the console wars two generations in a row. Broken folk with Nam' flashbacks. Acting like console DRM for physical discs to do away with the used-resale market wasn't a part of the hate. Revisionism of inconvenient truths.This.

Take that back - Mortal Kombat remains one of the few solid movies among the game based oneSony can't make good movie even with Disney IPs without external help. Spiderman movies were so bad that Marvel had to start producing movies for them so they would stop damaging Spiderman brand. I'm seriously expecting Doom and Mortal Kombat level movies from them at best.
I like it. But that was not a good movie in any way.Take that back - Mortal Kombat remains one of the few solid movies among the game based one
Totally. They think because they win video game awards, they are better than any tv/movie maker that didn't win awards.It's always funny when game developers think their goty franchises with thin plots are Oscar worthy or something. This shit will almost always be awful if judged like a tv show or movie.
Not new news but hear it from Jimbo himself.
Imo SCE planned shows based on already storytelling heavy games, are a waste of money. Would prefer they invest in SCEJ or buy out some studios like Kojipro or pour more money to make psnow competitive
Sure the idea is simple to cross promote their franchises, pander to their fans and hope netflix/hbo nongamers may pick a ps5 or two.
That's simplistic and old school thoughts though. Gamers already gone through 6-8 hrs of cinematic cutscenes sequels, what more can be told through the shows. The premise of uncharted, tlou, aren't even that interesting to sit through a season or 2 of shows.![]()

Bloodborne: The Animated SeriesWe need a bloodborne TV series....
He does quite a few of them as Spider-man on the big screen. They land well for the most part.excatly!
all those inner-self quips Drake does, it will sound terrible on the big screen should Tom Holland be made to do the same, cos 'games IP'!![]()
For SCE Japan to be doomed, it needed to exist, and thers no such thing as a SCE Japan. If you talking about SIE Japan Studio, they already released 2 games for PS5. Astro's Playroom and Demon's Souls in colaboration with BluePoint. You creating unecessary FUD out of ignorance.Sce Japan comes to mind, or what's left of them. The new age of Sce under Jim seems unlikeable![]()
It's not even remotely the same. It was completely different what MS tried to do with what Sony now tries to do.How ironic ohh how the things have changed. Seems like PlayStation is making the same mistakes as to what Microsoft did in 2013 with the Xbox One, yet people attacked them for an entire generation. So let's see people attack this and criticize Sony.

Please stop with the FUD, miss Spencer. Japan Studio is the only studio I remember who released 2 next gen games and months ago grew opening a new studio division to better help the external studios who work with them (which I assume it means that they will increase the number of games that Japan Studio publishes and are mostly or totally developed by other studios). They obviously are properly funded.Like leaving scej to die a slow death without funds?

Wat lol. MS tried to push ridiculous DRM policies, launched a less powerful console for $100 more, and decided to take a 10 year break from pushing a quality library. How is releasing a few movies any way comparable?How ironic ohh how the things have changed. Seems like PlayStation is making the same mistakes as to what Microsoft did in 2013 with the Xbox One, yet people attacked them for an entire generation. So let's see people attack this and criticize Sony.
Apple to oranges. Xbox trolls are so stupid to compare ces to gaming show.How ironic ohh how the things have changed.

Sony's 1st party studios were already in the movie business...
Seem like you are triggered that I said that and bias over the fact that Sony is still doing what Xbox is doing and it's pathetic that gamers treat Sony as fucking kings and act like their shit is golden. That's how I see it on both sides so don't come with the crap that I'm some type of damn fanboy of Microsoft because I'm not. Both companies are pathetic and sometimes need to be held accountable when it comes to this when Sony themselves has made fun of Microsoft over the things they are doing.Sounds like you still haven't recovered from that generation. Microsoft was not really capable to focus on both the games and Tv part.
This is something else. Tv series/movies are way more popular nowadays with streaming, then ever before. Your acting like Sony has no experience with this lol.
They are the only one that can create great movies and tv series, and at the same time PlayStation can deliver their killer games.
It's Marvel, they are pretty good with that. Well at least since dumping Joss after AoU.He does quite a few of them as Spider-man on the big screen. They land well for the most part.
Just because someone responds when you say something dumb doesn't mean they're triggered. What mistakes are Sony making that's the same as MS? As far as treating them "like kings", Sony has a pretty incredible track record so they've earned a lot of trust. 3/4 of their gens have been great and even the ps3 ended up being good after the disastrous start.Seem like you are triggered that I said that and bias over the fact that Sony is still doing what Xbox is doing and it's pathetic that gamers treat Sony as fucking kings and act like their shit is golden.
