Eat Sleep Play Drops "Sweet" Hint at AAA PS3 Title

PSLS:

If you are even remotely interested in the PlayStation 3, then you've likely been looking forward to David Jaffe's next game. The eccentric creator is responsible two franchises synonymous with PlayStation consoles, Twisted Metal and God of War. He has long been hard at work on the first retail PS3 game from his new studio, Eat Sleep Play. Through his blog, Jaffe has been throwing his fans curve-balls; seemingly hinting at a new Twisted Metal game, and other times scoffs at any assumptions. We have uncovered what may be a "sweet" hint from Eat Sleep Play's Production Artist.

How do they know its triple A yet if it hasn't been reviewed?

iPad5167d ago

Because it's being developed by David Jaffe.

the same guy that gave us Calling all Cars.

"In the video game industry, AAA game is an informal description for a video game that has a high budget."

Foliage5167d ago

I've worked for a Game Publisher the last 4 years. I still find it hilarious that some people think AAA has anything to do with reviews.

Here's a hint: AAA titles have nothing at all to do with reviews, in fact a AAA title can be deemed as such even before production begins.

Stop using sayings and terms that you do not understand.

Mountains out of molehills. Well, I'm off to buy groceries. Sweet!

I just want to see Grim and his Motorcycle in wonderful HD detail.

DarkTower8055167d ago

If anyone's seen the 5th episode of The Tester, one of the questions is what vehicle does Sweet Tooth drive. Maybe another mountain out of a molehill, but I thought that the timing was interesting on that.

Blaze9295167d ago

That term will soon loose all meaning. What's AAA to a developer/creator could be CCC aka Average in our eyes.

Bereaver5167d ago

Did anyone else notice this?

January 2009 — Present (1 year 3 months)

Concept, Texture, Storyboard artist on unannounced AAA PS3 Title..

Sweet!

//////January 2009? I mean yeah, it doesn't change the fact that it could be twisted metal, but..... damn, that's old.

JasonXE5167d ago

it already has started loosing money. AAA used to me games with enormous budgets and rest assured, after Calling all Cars Jaffe is not working with an enormous budget.

bruddahmanmatt5167d ago

This is seriously starting to get annoying and is beginning to border on lame. If they don't show anything by E3 I officially don't give a flip anymore. I have faith in Jaffe and his crew when it comes to making great games but that don't mean a damn thing if it never sees the light of day. Quit attention whoring with all these weak sauce rumors and release something concrete before no one gives a **** anymore.

Syronicus5167d ago

If Jaffe is working on another Twisted Metal game, you can bet your bottom dollar that Sony has given him an unlimited budget. It's a make it franchise for the Sony console and they would not pass it up especially to have the original dev making it. If you want to define AAA, then just look at the support Sony offers to the devs making games for their biggest franchises.

vhero5167d ago

wait he said sweet and you think he making a new twisted metal?? Talk about blowing something out of proportion!

sikbeta5167d ago

I don't give a Damn, I just want Twisted Metal PS3, like it or not Jaffe knows best and if This Game IS TM, it'll be EPIC

barom5167d ago

PSLS sucks! They have not released any true news in a LONG time. If they do release news they do it in a rush as in the case of GT TV. They are the very reason why gaming journalism has died, getting there first is all that matters regardless of the quality of the content delivered.

I saw the Bonus Round today with Jaffe in it and he said they are working on an action game. It was Episode 3 of the Bonus Round.

xTruthx5167d ago

Kigmal apparently what we saw was a lie cus some 1 disagreed with us lol

Bnet3435167d ago

That's why I said what episode it was, so people can got to the website and watch it themselves if they thought I was lying. I don't care about agrees or disagrees. I've been saying this forever, it doesn't hide your comment or make it grey like joystiq and youtube does, so why does it really matter lol. Don't pay attention to it. :P

MONOLITHICIDE5167d ago (Edited 5167d ago )

i didnt disagree but twisted metal does have explosive action. Like theyre gonna say its a car combat game, thats a dead give away

Doomsday5167d ago

Which is the website? The Sony website?

xTruthx5167d ago

Its on Game Trailers, the last bonus round they did. Its part 3

Jaffe has been dropping hints for a LONG time now.

Remember this? http://cache.kotaku.com/ass...

I am sure this is just more fodder to play into that. Who knows maybe it was a bluff the whole time, but honestly he would really disappoint some people at this point.

T3mpr1x5167d ago

I remember that, wow that was 2007 too. I think that was too far back to mean anything significant now though...

Theonik5167d ago

Yeah the tittle should have been "Jaffe drops hint for AAA game for the 10th time"

Michael Myers5167d ago

Microsoft once tried to nab LittleBigPlanet from Sony after a few drinks

It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.

Microsoft had a good idea but fumbled it again.

Cacabunga3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

Project Spark idea was decent but they quickly gave up ..
LBP was wonderful

ApocalypseShadow4d ago

Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.
https://www.playstationlife...

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.

They're scum.

Zachmo1823d ago

Microsoft didn't force MLB on Xbox. MLB gave Sony 2 options either go multiplat or risk losing the license.

Rynxie3d ago

And why do you think MLB said that? I believe Ms approached MLB.

ApocalypseShadow3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

Totally ridiculous comment.

The only exclusivity Sony had was to their own creation of The Show. Microsoft could have paid the MLB for the license just like Sony did and made their own baseball game.

Microsoft instead, groomed MLB for years in trying to poach Sony's game and bring it to Xbox. They're worth 3 TRILLION dollars. You think that's not enough money to make their own baseball game? Don't be delusional.

Microsoft spun it like they always do and told the media that they had to trust Sony with their hardware. After they put Sony in that position of not having a choice. Either go multiplatform or stop making one of their successful games. That's a no win scenario.

And what did Microsoft do? They didn't try to sell the game to the Xbox community. They put it on game pass to hurt Sony. Pushing the idea of why buy games that are $70 when you can play them in their cheap service for $10. It was a dirty tactic.

You fell for the Kool aid drink Microsoft served you instead of spitting it out. Hope it tasted good because you were fooled by Phil and the gang.

Xbox executive Sara Bond has told Axios that Microsoft spent a number of years trying to get MLB The Show onto Xbox consoles. And when it finally succeeded in breaking off PlayStation’s long-held exclusivity, the company had to “trust” Sony with pre-release Xbox Series X/S consoles.

Bond revealed that MLB The Show “always came up” in conversations between Microsoft and the Major League Baseball organization. “We always said, ‘We love this game. It would be a huge opportunity to bring it to Xbox.'” she recalled. However, when Microsoft’s efforts materialized, it put the company in an awkward situation where it had to send in pre-release consoles to a rival company.

ApocalypseShadow2d ago

Lying to yourself is unbecoming.

Article link tells you all you need to know in Sarah Bond's own words.

Hereandthere2d ago

They were too cheap/inept/lazy to develop their own mlb game, so they port begged for years and bribed the mlb to make the show multiplatform. Like i said many times, xbox brought nothing to the table their 24 years, ZERO.

ApocalypseShadow2d ago

At least you and others get it. Note drank the Kool aid and asked for seconds thinking it was refreshing.

Most don't even know how it all played out but it's there in black and white for all to see. Microsoft brought it up for years until the MLB forced Sony's hand. It was a win win for Microsoft. Kill one reason to buy a PlayStation or kill the game by dropping it in a cheap service to kill Sony's sales numbers on PlayStation.

"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."

Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.

Cockney2d ago

They chose well, Sony gave them the backing to pursue their dreams with no restrictions even tho their games especially dreams have very niche appeal. Media molecule and Sony deserve respect for this in an age of risk averse publishing.

RNTody3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.

But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?

Inverno3d ago

Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.

Inverno3d ago

They shut down the servers, that's millions of user created levels gone. That and dead are pretty much the same, it's also been years since 3 and they cancelled HUB soooo.

fsfsxii3d ago

They shutdown the servers because no one was playing, no one in the community cared about the user created levels so why keep them up? Wtf you guys would never succeed in running a business.

Inverno3d ago

Yea dood no one was playing so they shut off the servers. Cause people with enough common sense can't just Google why they were actually shut of, right?
