Sony, legit doesn't have an extremely popular franchise that isn't currently still releasing new titles... at least I couldn't name you one.
Jak might be the closest to such a game, but even that... does the general public really care about Jak? I wonder.

Most of their older IPs that haven't seen a new game in recent years are only actually still popular among the niche that now is the core gaming crowd. so extremely popular are none of them.

Syphon Filter for example is a franchise 99% of video game players today would shrug their shoulders to when asked about it. same to a lesser degree with Jak, Twisted Metal or Wipeout. Sly Raccoon was a flop the last time they released one even tho the game was pretty decent too, neither of the Sly Raccoon games sold more than maybe a million each at best even when it was "still popular"

so which IP is left then?
like, name a single multi million seller outside of Jak that would actually be viable in today's landscape? I can't name a single game. by the second game Syphon Filter sold ridiculously low numbers already for example

Motorstorm. Ps5 needs a game like this.

The Getaway remaster from BluePoint. Never lose hope.

Please, this..

 

[Badlucktroll]

Could Abandoned be related? On brief inspection, the rumored dates seem to coincide.

 

[Evil Calvin]

More than likely Twisted Metal.

Likely since a TV show is coming out

 

[Lunarorbit]

It's Riddddddge racer

Shit! Remember you could take the game out and play a CD in it to have your own sound track. That was up there with psycho mantis controller switching.

SOCOM was originally bigger than Call of Duty on PlayStation.

 

[AllBizness]

Give me Socom or nothing

 

[Ev1L AuRoN]

Return of an extremely popular franchise. Most successful IPs Sony have are active.

The only name that comes to mind for me is Uncharted. Or a third-part title like Silent Hill, Metal Gear...

 

[Ev1L AuRoN]

Either one of these

The order
Resistance
Legend of dragoon
Silent Hill
MGS

I would love to have a Remake or Reboot of Resistance, but Insomniac is already busy with Spider Man 2 and Wolverine.
The fabled Blue Point's MGS remake is also interesting.

 

[LordBlodgett]

"extremely popular" you say?

Darn, that rules out Silent Hill

But in reality, what could it be?
Jak & Daxter
SOCOM
Motorstorm
Resistance
Killzone
Infamous
Uncharted

Hmmm, out of all of those it's probably Uncharted or Infamous.

 

[Imtjnotu]

Our choices could be.

Resistance
Killzone
Socom
Metal Gear
KNACK THE GOD OF EVERYTHING

 

[JimmyRustler]

Metal Gear or Silent Hill seem to be the obvious choices.

Silent Hill, even though not that popular for a long time time, has build up some steam in the past years with PT and the whole conspiracy thing. Hence I think it could be pretty huge upon release.

 

[GrayFoxPL]

All of you guys are wrong.

This guy is watching from above.

Sly Cooper.

 

[socksfelloff]

Wild Arms/ Socom lets go baby!

 

[Shane89]

Resistance. i can bet by ba**s

 

[IbizaPocholo]

 

[iHaunter]

Twisted Metal, guaranteed.

 

[Hoppa]

Ridge Racer please

Everybody wants this to be true so badly at this point, that anytime, anybody, anywhere mentions it, they'll report on it.
