Sony Playstation: First Party Studios & their Current Projects

Lady Gaia said:
It's not "my definition", it's the commonly accepted industry definition. Nioh and Rise of the Tomb Raider aren't second party because the games weren't developed under contract. They were either published or marketed with contractual limitations, but it wasn't a work for hire initiated by signing a contact with the platform vendor. Nioh had been in development forever, and Rise of the Tomb Raider was started long before any console release was pinned down.

The commonly accepted industry definition for a term no-one in the industry uses and even its wiki entry refers to it as a colloquial term used by the media and fans? Shu had never even heard of the term when it was brought up in an interview and Phil Spencer doesn't use it either.

When I was growing up, second party was used to refer to independent developers who worked exclusively with a first party. So Rare and Factor 5 were Nintendo second parties, Insomniac and Naughty Dog (before the buyout) were Sony second parties and so on.

I dunno. Looks like CDPR and Guerilla Games built a friendship. I can imagine that PlayStation will deal a marketing deal with them

You mean the tweets they shared between the two studios around Horizon's release? Or is there something else?

Regardless, Guerrilla Games isn't Sony's third party relations group, so that's a bit of a leap you're taking. A lot of devs are friends with one another. Naughty Dog invited Remedy to their studio while Remedy were still working on Quantum Break for example.

I assume Novo is suppose to mean november? Would be strange for Sony to send such a huge game out to compete with COD/BF2/RDR2/Destiny 2. Makes more sense to delay it to Q1, they've seen alot of success with that strategy.

I was just thinking after seeing the Sony E3 conference thread. Didn't Sony show a trailer not too long ago to show what they were doing with teams in China? They had like five developers they'd co-operated closely with to developing content for PlayStation? Because I have to be honest, Lost Soul Aside looks fucking amazing and Sony could massively benefit from an influx of titles and console sales from that market. But given the quality of that one title, I wouldn't be surprised if they really put the spot light on it. Given the global appeal of Devil May Cry, they could essentially replace it. I mean Capcom certainly aren't going to have Kamiya and Platinum go back to the roots.... are they??

There is room for both.

Novo means new in Spanish.

It took me a few seconds to find it too but it's in the green box and says 14-09-2017. Total bullshit.
 
Releasing GOW in September would be stupid. That's a month you send Detroit or Knack out.
If GOW did release this year, October or November would be good months.

I think 70% of my posts here are asking for a new Sly game. The possibilities are vast. Sanzaru can apply what they've learned from the previous game to a sequel. Make it darker, with a deeper story. Heck, maybe apply the switch thing between the three characters.

I really hope a new Sly comes out soon, I've been hopeful every E3 since Thieves in Time came out.

Lol, throw em to the wolves, why don't you!

Yea, that's obviously fake. GOW would do good anytime it came out, but I think they will stick to the early year release dates

Yeah, look at how well Q1 releases have worked out for PS4 this year. Nobody is talking about Xbox, they're talking about Nioh, Horizon, Nier, Persona.
and Zelda.
 
So which of Sony's games do we think are going to be left out of the conference this year? Something always is.

I think Uncharted: The Lost Legacy and Knack 2 will have trailers drop during the Pre-E3 week, which let's be real is the start of E3 anyway. Those two are known quantities and the main stage should be saved for games needing to prove themselves like Days Gone, Spider-Man and God of War (in my opinion).

I also 100% expect The Last of Us 2 and Death Stranding to be no-shows. Save those for PSX.

All safe bets, I think the same although Uncharted might be in conference. I suppose Detroit and Dreams will be shown again, it depends if there's another conference scheduled for Gamescom or Paris.

I think Death Stranding and The Last of Us are the most likely.

GT Sport is 100% pre conference, it was the same last year when the game release window still was fall 2016
I can't really see Uncharted out of the conference, i mean it's fucking Uncharted even if only a DLC
Knack is out, no question, and probably even without a pre show trailer
I've doubts on Days Gone
Death Stranding though ... yeah, i think it's gonna be there

I could see Knack 2 getting a trailer during Sony's pre-conference build-up but Uncharted TLL is the second biggest exclusive Sony's got in the second half of this year, so I think it'll show up in the conference with a trailer.

As for no-shows, I agree on TLOU2 but no way Kojima's going to miss E3. Dude loves the spectacle.
 
I'm not sure where GT: Sport will be

It's going to be their biggest game of the rest of the year and based on impressions and the beta it has improved immensely since 2016. A nice trailer with a release date would fit beautifully in the conference.

But at the same time, it's Gran Turismo which has plenty of marketing events unique to itself and is an extremely known quantity. I see that one going either way but if I had to give odds I would say something like 60/40 chance of it being at the conference.

On a similar note, I'm going a bit bold and am going to predict that Dreams will 100% be at the conference where they show off the proper campaign portion of the game and announce a beta.

Nah, Naughty Dog will show *something* in the conference I'm sure. Whether it's an action trailer for Lost Legacy or another TLoU teaser we shall see. Hopefully the former.
