Sony bend? Make another syphon filter game damnit

Nasan,

Best we can do is include Gabe Logan in a live service game as a paid character ($80).

simple,

Bluepoint, the developer that remakes old games and has never made an original one before, were tasked with making a live service game? Wow.

Imagine how dogshit these cancelled games are. Seeing how Concord got the pass.

Good games get canceled juts as easily as bad games. Executives can rarely tell the difference

AgentGrimstone,

Aww cmon. Just one more try.

21Cabbage,

Yeah live service anything was going to land like a dead fish in my area where whether or not you can get a ping through to fucking Google depends on how many people in the neighborhood are off work.

Finally the live service bubble is popping.
I hope the developers working on these projects get put on to something else, instead of shown the door as is so often the case.

dinckelman,

Sony specifically had to learn many harsh lessons recently.

The Bungie acquisition brought them nothing but issues. Concord being shutdown immediately after launch was a huge was of money too. Other titles under the Sony umbrella are either struggling, or gaining poor reputation due to their completely numbskull decision to enforce PSN account usage, even for single player offline games.

They need to get their head out of the clouds

CosmoNova,

I think the huge critical acclaim of Astrobot was also a very important lesson for them to learn. People often seem to glance over this recently.

Helldivers 2 is sweet though

dinckelman,

Yeah, it is. And it deserved all the success it got. It was great, until Sony fucked them against their will

afansfw,

They also made shitty movies, on a Spider-Man license no less. Just one crazy decision after another
