Sony knows how to keep throwing exclusives at us, year after year

20 new exclusives in just the first year of PS4's life cycle, 12 of which are new IPs

MariaHelFutura3952d ago

Exactly. Home grown, not purchased.

Smoovekid3952d ago

All microsoft does is buy timed exclusives because they do not have the first-party talent of Sony.

devwan3952d ago

@Smoovekid And how quickly those dried up in the current gen.

abzdine3952d ago

Yeah look at The Last of Us! It came almost out of nowhere and it's one of the best games ever made... And this is only first episode on a '' dying hardware'' as people like to call it!

IQUITN4G3952d ago

great news article this. N4g really has turned to shit

fattyuk3952d ago

Yeah and your comment evens it out.

IQUITN4G3952d ago

nah I'm just contributing to the overall crap. Shouldn't have even looked I suppose but this is still not what I'd call news

Master-H3952d ago

@Adro not what you would call news huh , hmmm , is that why it has "Opinion piece" written under it by any chance ????

MariaHelFutura3952d ago

No, things just aren't going as well for some people as they are for others.

Soldierone3952d ago

When Sony says "We are spending money on new games," it means "we are making new games ourselves," not "we are buying timed exclusive deals." haha

MariaHelFutura3952d ago

Kaz, Shu, Jack and Sony in general are 'stone cold playas'.

Kakashi Hatake3952d ago

Don't forget about Mark Cerny :p

abzdine3952d ago

MS showed ALL THEY HAD at e3.
now let's move on to gamescom and TGS to see who has more games!

miyamoto3951d ago

Don't put all your wggs in "One" basket, hey?

Blastoise3952d ago (Edited 3952d ago )

Probably gonna get one for Christmas too. Can't wait for get my hands on games like Destiny, Killzone, Infamous and Planetside 2.

Looking forward to next-gen

What, I thought this was dead after Shawn Layden left Sony. I would definitely pick this up if it's true. I have such great memories of playing the MediEvil games on PS1 and I played the PS4 remake. Such a great and underrated series.

A rumored game at a rumored show.. we’ve seen it all

TiredGamer3h ago

Agreed. The first remake was stylistically beautiful and a very noticeable improvement over the original in every regard. And it was reasonably priced and sustainably developed (i.e. not some mega big budget game that was do or die for the developer).

Zeke685h ago

Thanks for the spoilers... :(

RonnySins5h ago

Another day, another remake. Ugh!

SonyStyled4h ago

If you played the original print I can see your annoyance. I didn’t and probably a lot others the past 20 years.

Was it any good? Would you suggest playing the original print of 2, or suggest the remake? Just wondering because I didn’t play the originals as I had an n64 at the time

TiredGamer4h ago(Edited 3h ago)

I played the first remake and absolutely loved it. The quality of life and control improvements were very noticeable. I tried playing the PS1 original and gave up halfway through at the janky controls.

Expect the same for part 2. The PS1 version is janky as heck, but I would gobble up an improved remake day one.

The beauty of this kind of stuff is that I find myself enjoying more retro gaming today, so a relatively low budget classic remake (call it a single-A release) is exactly what is missing from first party releases in the modern age. I don’t want every game to be an unsustainable AAAA endeavor that is just overwhelming in every regard. Truly miss when game releases could be modest-sized surprises and still be commercially successful/viable.

Bring on more quality classic remakes!

Knightofelemia5h ago

Such a good series I also wish Sony would dust off Wild Arms and Legend of Dargoon even the Legend series needs to see the light again.

Omegasyde4h ago

My bets on new Socom and/or Wolverine (since Deadpool 3 is dropping in the summer).

I think one after this state of play will be PS5 pro preorder

"The Vancouver-based (Canada) indie games developer Red Hook Studios are today very happy and excited to announce that their roguelike /strategy/RPG “Darkest Dungeon II”, is coming to Playstation consoles (PS5 and PS4) via PSN on July 15th, 2024." - Jonas Ek, TGG.

Don't sleep on this, it's a great day

Michiel198952m ago

I personally didn't enjoy 2 as much as I did 1. Actually didn't even finish it.
I do praise that they didn't just carbon copy the 1st game and added more of everything, but I think that during the process a lot of what made Darkest Dungeon appealing to put a ton of hours in, was lost.

The new mode does look cool and I will definitely jump back into it and try it out.
