hulk_bash19874337d ago

Well i really enjoyed Indigo Prophecy and Heavy Rain so Im really excited to play David Cage and Quantic Dreams' next game.

WooHooAlex4337d ago

Oh man, the Podcast Beyond crew is gonna love this one.

Creative-Enigma4337d ago (Edited 4337d ago )

Sony about to prove to nintendo & microsoft tonight that hardcore games and new ips are better than casual quick buck games. That releasing the same games every year just shows you have no games to offer to your fanbase.

BitbyDeath4337d ago

This game could win Sony E3.
Cannot wait to see what they have got

tarbis4337d ago

Can't wait for the reveal. It's already in my list of PS3 games.

Quantic Dream Announces New Publishing Label Spotlight

Quantic Dream has announced a new publishing label, Spotlight, following the reveal of debut title Under the Waves.

sadraiden314d ago

Interesting to see how this works out for them. QD have had a very lucrative partnership with Sony. David Cage is a household name among Playstation owners, and he might not have been if QD stuck with Atari as their publisher. Now they're launching Spotlight so they can circumvent Sony exclusivity? I imagine this isn't the last we'll hear from Spotlight.

Abnor_Mal314d ago (Edited 314d ago )

Weren’t QD bought buy Tencent, and if so then I’m sure there wouldn’t be anymore Sony exclusivity.

Ok it seems to have been NetEase that bought them back in 2022.

mjchitown314d ago

this is not a Sony exclusivity. you can clearly see Xbox One Xbox Series X ps4 ps5

Sonic1881313d ago (Edited 313d ago )

Funny you mention that because in a few Diablo 4 articles, Xbox was the only console that was tagged. It didn't tag playstation or PC and Diablo 4 is a multiplatform game

porkChop314d ago

Bro they had a 3-game contract with Sony. That ended with Detroit. They've haven't been working together since then, so they aren't circumventing anything. They have no obligation to Sony.

CrimsonWing69313d ago

Didn’t they show a Star Wars fake at a Sony event?

I might be wrong about that, but I feel like that’s where I saw if.

porkChop313d ago

I don't think so, Star Wars: Eclipse was announced at the Game Awards.

CrimsonWing69313d ago

@porkchop

The Game Awards, you’re right!

Kekewei313d ago (Edited 313d ago )

I don't think so. There some sources claiming Sony was not happy with their partnership at the end, they even canceled a project that was supposed to be the 4th ps exclusive from QD.

QD is gold! They make excellent games

mastershredder313d ago

Can’t wait for all those quicktime events and bash-you-with-boredom storytelling.

Snookies12313d ago

There's nothing wrong with QTE's. Never understood the hate for them. You press a single button to attack in most games. You press a single button to jump in most games. Why does it then become an issue when you press a button during a cutscene to do something?

JackBNimble313d ago

It's a niche market and not everyone is into that type of game.

RedDevils313d ago

I like their games, it's different from all the trash we seeing every years.

GoodGuy09313d ago

God was Detroit a gem. Hope that their new games are at least on par.

Why Quantic Dream sold up after 25 years

From GI.biz: "Today, Quantic Dream embarks on a new chapter as it is brought into the fold of NetEase – the Chinese publisher's first European acquisition.

Over the past quarter of a century, the French studio has built a reputation for itself on the back of cinematic titles such as Heavy Rain, Beyond: Two Souls and Detroit: Become Human. While these games may divide opinion among individual gamers, generally speaking they have been well received by critics and praised for attempting something different when it comes to interactive storytelling.

The high profile of these games, and the studio's long-running partnership with PlayStation, put Quantic Dream on the map – to the point where co-CEO Guillaume de Fondaumière (pictured above left) tells GamesIndustry.biz the company has engaged in acquisition discussions with several potential buyers over its lifetime."

I guess another company that will be restricted on what they can and can't say by the Chinese govmt

camel_toad595d ago (Edited 595d ago )

China will be writing the Quantic Dream scripts from here on out.

masterfox595d ago

infinite supply of fried rice?, I kid I kid, most probably cash ?, retirement? running out of ideas, who knows.

rlow1595d ago

Well I wrote a big post on this but somehow it deleted from the stupid glitching advertisement on this site. Does any bodies screen jump around as the advertisement changes up. Just asking.

As for the Chinese buying up game companies. What’s one way to monitor people and behaviors? Through the gaming analytics they get from people playing. I really believe they are trying to manipulate the world as much as possible. Remember the bird nest at their first Olympics. Their Vision of the world all neatly tied up for them.. I know it’s a stretch, but either the Chinese government has a lot of Gamers, or something else is going on behind the scenes.

MadLad595d ago (Edited 595d ago )

Yeah.
It's freaking annoying.

Typing a thought out comment you made on the fly then, bam, you're in an ad and it's gone.

I mean, there's an ad in virtually every square inch of this site. Can I at least make a comment without worrying it's just going to be yeeted out of existence at the last few words?
