Sony Playstation: First Party Studios & their Current Projects
- Thread starter JuanLatino
- Start date
Earlier today I watched for the 100th time that Cry On concept pitch video, and man someone needs to revive this game, maybe PlayStation would be up to and fund this as a Japan Studio produced game.
Its a Sakaguchi RPG + TLG companion stuff + Knack physics stuff!!
Take Knack out of this sentence and it already sounds like GOTY material

I don't think you know how games work. The small increase in RAM is for the higher resolution and effects to fill in the frame-buffer, but you're not really going to have substantially more to warrant different modes and splitting the assets between both makes no sense. The PS4 Pro also utilizes the added DDR3 RAM for the OS in order to alleviate more for the 1080p recording / DVR function. Why do you think the Scorpio reserves such a massive amount of RAM for the OS? Partial answer: 4K video recording / DVR.
Besides, we have no real knowledge on the memory limitations yet and how they are leveraging the HDD as a cache to further extend it (larger levels / portals / etc.). I think better performance / resolution for 4K and VR is more than enough.
Wasn't some concept art leaked showing that it's a western.

That western concept art was for Days Gone I thought?
What do you mean by "besides"? A leak is a leak
I think it was a cancelled project.
I think it was undisclosed project. I'm not really sure but I wouldn't mind the game being this.

Did you actually play Severed? It's a fantastic game and a really strange (but totally successful) mash-up of genres. It's like Myst meets Metroid meets a swipe-screen phone game, and it's really brilliant. Also has a pretty dark and twisted story.
Ovosonico (the makers of Murasaki Baby) are teasing their next project on Twitter.

Now someone from 505Games retweeted one of the tweets which could mean the game is being published by them. If that's the case, Sony has ended its partnership with the developer.

Seeing how SIE has moved away a bit (maybe a lot) from funding these smaller games, I wouldnt be surprised if they ended their deal with Ovosonico

Or, like Tarsier, they only had a one game deal with Sony in the first place.
Im not sure that deal was ever fully disclosed and that doesnt seem to be the kind of deal Tarsier made with Sony too.
Tarsier never made a new IP for SIE, all the work they did for Sony was on established IP, and they worked on multiple games for them actually

Both Ovosonico and 505 are based in Italy. It could also be there's a close friendship between people working in both companies...
(Not ruling out a partnership, but it could also be friendship and helping each other out)

I wasn't saying their deal was exactly the same as Tarsier's, I was just pointing out that everyone assumes every studio signs a mythical "three game deal" when that's clearly not the case with every studio.
And yes, I know they worked on multiple games for Sony (or rather, a couple of games plus a ton of DLC), I was referring to the publishing deal they announced in 2010 (which in hindsight was obviously LBP Vita).
Edit: In other words, don't assume Sony dropped them when there's no evidence Sony had a contract with them post-Murasaki Baby.
Oh sure. I think people expects Ovosonico has multiple games with them because of this post here but thats not really a confirmation, sure.

Fair enough I'd say anything for Knack to die I'm good
Bruh. The apes needs you and want you to abandon Knack.
We saw the gameplay montage trailer and i can already tell it will be just as good or bad should i say as Knack 1, this is Knack 1.5 in the making it will flop and be terrible again i can bet on it but i don't bet

All impressions so far said it was an improvement
All I needed to hear - absolutely loved Knack. Second Plat on PS4 after Resogun.

It's not like they could've made a worse game is it. It would take a special kind of talent to out-crap the crapness that is Knack 1.
To those that don't have a PS4: the message "ABC played XYZ for the first time" does appear again if you haven't played a game in a while. Don't know exactly how long, maybe a year, maybe half a year, but it doesn't mean he never played it.
Still funny, though.
Thats excatly what happened since the tweet is from November 2016 and if you look at his trophies he platinumed it in January 2015.
I hope Knack 2 does well enough to justify Puppeteer 2, Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time 2, and The Order: 1886 2. There are plenty of IPs that deserve a second try.
I was underwhelmed by Knack at launch, but I'm willing to give it a second chance.
Speaking of underwhelming things that are due a second chance, weren't there rumors at one point that someone was working on PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale 2? If executed well, that could be a nice E3 surprise.
We're one step closer to having Crash, which means we're one step closer to Spyro. Plus, now we've got Aloy, Knack, The Hunter (Bloodborne), Joel & Ellie, Galahad, Iota & Atoi, Delsin & Fetch, Kutaro, Oddsock, Toggle, and Swoop, The dancer from Bound. That could ease one complaint.
I've also noticed this happen when I switched from disc to digital, when LPB3 became part of PS+. Granted I hadn't played it in a while either. (Also, switching is annoying because you can't just download the license. You have to delete the game data then download the digital version.)

Thank you very much <3
The platforming being different according to difficulty level seems quite interesting!

Same here. It has its fair share of issues - it's mechanically shallow, had some perf issues, the story was brain dead, etc - but it was a cool little game that I had a blast playing with my SO, a lapsed gamer.
If Knack 2 improves upon the first, even better. Really hope it does pretty well, gets a warm reception and goes on to sell well, so we might get not only Knack 3 and 4 and 5, but other cool stuff in the same vein.
Lets be real...
Knack while badly reviewed still past 1 million sales and its also a mark cerny side project :
Cerny vaulted the ps4 to number 1, got kojima on board to make a sequel, and is likely designing the future ps5....
If it does similar numbers to knack, if cerny wants a knack 3 i doubt Sony will say no, lol

Knack was a PS4 launch title next to Killzone Shadow Fall, when a new system doesnt have much other games of course those games will get the most sales, Zelda on Switch for example a 100% attach rate throughout the month of Switch release
That would be cool
Which is why im saying lets give knack 2 a shot, the first game was specifically designed to be a launch title and it shows, cerny has a chance to fix a lot of mistakes, and drop in/out co-op seems like a move in the right direction at least.

I'm looking forward to Knack 2. That said, I'm not sure I'd pay full price for it again. Will depend on when it comes out.
Im very excited to see Thatgamecompany's next game!
looks like it will be self-published http://thatgamecompany.com/games/underdevelopment/

Uncharted in August, Knack 2 in September and GT Sport in October.
Add one or two of the bigger games (Detroit, God of War, Dreams, Spider-Man, etc...) and Sony is good for the rest of the year.
