Do sony own light box?
what ive started to notice is
sucker punch and light box are doing amazing
and there not ownded by sony?
but then we have killzone 3 and socom 4? both made by sony owned by studio's and those games were imo huge let downs but still im still to play imfamous 2 and strhawk

thereapersson4722d ago

MECHS!!!! MECHS!!! OMG, THEY FUCKIN TRANSFORM.

Did you see that shit? I don't care if I get reported for bad language. This is awesome!

supremacy4722d ago

You are right, but those studios get much input from Sony's own like in this particular case Santa monica was onboard.

In other cases like infamous 2, naughty dog would lend a hand.

Socom 4 and killzone 3 were rushed to market you can almost feel that by the end results.

Take resistance 2, that game turned out poorly. But resistance 3 looks better in almost everyway imaginable.

It has to do with time and support.

Raendom4722d ago

Killzone 3 wasn't a huge let down. Even if you think it wasn't as good as 1 or 2, it still can't be called "huge" in the same way SOCOM 4 can.

Jezuz4722d ago

This looks awesome. I wanna see Multiplayer Footage, link pls ?

limewax4722d ago (Edited 4722d ago )

Never played Warhawk, but this looks great, I wont lie, I was hoping for inter-galactic warfare with Junkers and stuff, not battles on a planet. But one can only dream. This game looks great regardless what I was hoping for, But did anyone else dream for the same game I did? Just though that would make a wicked game, especially if you could get 64 player support in with it too

Maybe one day

WhittO4722d ago

This looks so good!

Not sure about having to build up currency to be able to get a Mech thing to fly, I liked being able to re-spawn in Warhawk and jumping right into a plane.
But we will see lol, still buying either way!

LightBox Interactive is an American video game developer founded in January 2009 by former team members of Incognito Entertainment, developer of titles such as Warhawk, Twisted Metal: Black, and War of the Monsters.

LightBox is currently engaged in a multi-year, multi-title partnership with Sony Computer Entertainment of America developing games for all the PlayStation family of platforms. The studio relocated from Salt Lake City, Utah to Austin, Texas in the Fall of 2009.

Lightbox Interactive's goals were to continue supporting the Warhawk community by releasing booster packs while Incognito worked on other projects. After the Fallen Star booster pack, Lightbox official started working on their next game, which is rumored to be the sequel to Warhawk called Starhawk. Incognito diffused into different companies in late 2008.

David Jaffe used to work with Incognito.

DFresh4722d ago

Light Box is owned by Sony.
Sucker Punch isn't owned by Sony however I've heard that an acquisition is possible same thing could also be applied to Quantic Dream and Insomniac.
:D

Don't agree... looks OK... nothing special. Since it's a exclusive, it's over-hyped. It would go unnoticed if it was multi-platform.

There are way to many good games (exclusive and multiplatform) coming out in the near future, for me to even notice Starhawk.

BizDaWolf4721d ago

why do you have to troll

Treyb3yond4721d ago

You mad bro?

Seriously, the time has now come that you can't even call yourself a gamer with a straight face if you don't own a PS3.

That's just a fact, and no amount of trolling fanboys will ever change it.

From now until Ragnarok.

snipes1014721d ago (Edited 4721d ago )

I agree with lelo and I own all three consoles. Fuck disagrees. Fuck less bubbles. That's what I think.

I loves me some uncharted, killzone, valkyrie chronicles, demon's souls etc...but this looks weak. Didn't like warhawk and this is not changing my mind.

EDIT: and I do not think lelo is trolling, he's just saying what he thinks like everyone else on this damn board.

ERMAC_4721d ago (Edited 4721d ago )

No, it would still get noticed. You just wouldn't be blathering about those evil Sony Fanboys interested in something your not if it was mulit-plat.

lelo2play4721d ago (Edited 4721d ago )

In response of some stupid comments...

I have a PS3, X360 and a very decent PC. I'm no console specific fanboy.

I didn't think Warhawk was anything special and I'm not exited about Starhawk. There are way to many great games coming out... Diablo 3, LA Noir, Witcher 2, Uncharted 3, Resistence 3, Gears 3, Infamous 2, Battlefield 3, Batman 2, etc...etc...etc.

FamilyGuy4721d ago

The RTS aspect makes this stand out from any other current or upcoming third person shooter. I was never all that interested in Warhawk an thought nothing of Starhawk till now.

I respect that it's not your "cup-o-tea" but I don't believe this is simply getting overhyped because it's a Sony exclusive. It actually has a few dynamics that may excite more than a few people.

And for the Warhawk fans it's an upgrade in every aspect of what Warhawk was.

hazeblaze4722d ago

Yes, it is! Warhawk is still in my top 3 of online games this gen, on ANY CONSOLE. It is easily the most addictive of any that I played... and the upgrades they've made to this game are incredibe! Flying mechs and strategic base building!!!! This game just shot to the top of my most wanted for 2012!

LiquifiedArt4722d ago

This looks so incredibly fun. I feel like this could be what halo was for the xbox. It just looks like such a great fun game.

The Building mechanic came directly from an RTS-eshe idea similar to the Battlezone games, which i've been waiting for for YEARS!

My mouth is salivating right now.

Fez4721d ago

Firefly-esque too! Brilliant :D

jack_burt0n4722d ago

just imagine what the space stuff will look like so impressed with the game.

SuperKing4722d ago

They've confirmed that there will be space battles. I honestly can't wait. Such a shame this is coming out in 2012, I want it now! lol

Silly gameAr4722d ago

I can't believe how this looks compared to Warhawk. It's like night and day.

Sheikah4722d ago

But in the best possible way, that is - this looks amazing. I seems to play a lot like Warhawk, but it looks tonnes better

NnT32914722d ago

this reminds me of some tower defence games I've played. Except this is in third person

Not a single Reistance? Fuck this article.

mastershredder3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

Starhawk over Warhawk?...... Dude, NO ONE should listen to you.

Odd choices for "best" more like you settled as these being the "best" that available to you at the time, cause a lot of these blow or were average to poor performers that ended up in bargain bin.

Missing too many great sci-fi titles here. The Void, The Resistance Series, Killzone 2 and 3, Enslaved, man.. there were so many, this is redicu-list.

FreeckyCake3d ago

Nobody should listen to you either with that attitude.

OtterX3d ago

I agree that Starhawk shouldn't be above Warhawk, however I must say that Starhawk multiplayer was incredible for its time! Many people wrote it off bc the single player was quite terrible, bc it was basically 1 huge tutorial for the multiplayer. But I can tell you never spent any significant amount of time in MP. It was doing incredibly tense base building w air, foot and land vehicle (and mech!) combat long before Fortnite was ever a thing.

I bet it would have been much better received if it had just ditched the story mode all together. So many people like yourself completely wrote it off based on reviews by reviewers that let the criticism of single player weigh heavily on their scores. I bet you didn't even play it.

Friendlygamer3d ago

The riddick games are some of the best stealth titles ever, highly underrated

YourMommySpoils3d ago

What games? All recall plating was Escape from Butcher Bay.

Friendlygamer3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

There's also the less acclaimed 'assault on dark Athena'

( also, not saying this to you specifically but there's both resistance and killzone games on the list, it's amazing how even something so simple and innocent as a game list can be turned into misinformed vitriol here lol )

jznrpg3d ago

Glad to see Resonance of Fate. Enslaved was pretty good too. I’m sure there are others nobody has listed but I’m too tired to try and think of anything

Roundtable: Dead Game Franchises We Miss

With every big game now belonging to a big intellectual property, there are those that have become redundant. Here are the series' we miss.

RPGer1080d ago

I miss Dark Cloud I mean damn, Dark Cloud 2 is one of the best Action RPG game ever made. The game have: Rich Worlds, different setting, tons of contents, vareity in gameplay like never before (and even after), best buliding mechanics, crafting system like no one did and finally impressive graphics.

Most underrated game ever. It deserved the popularity and sales of Zelda and Final Fantasy. ut unfortunately, Level-5 and Sony didn't advertise it at all.

titans99991080d ago

My franchises I wish would make a come back, are Battlefront by pandemic studios - galactic conquest was the best, mercenaries 1 and 2, and prototype 1 and 2...great games!
