Is that like shrinky dinks?

PLASTICA-MAN3518d ago

You know 99% of games use scaleforms and speedtree, is there a reall necessity to make a news and fuss about it? It is like saying such game has been made using 3dsmax or maya. Seriously!

Paprika3518d ago

I literally can't wait to see what these guys can achieve on ps4. Will be borderline CGI IMO.

All_Consoles3518d ago

I hopes it's more along the lines of a game rather than a movie

WeAreLegion3518d ago

I want it to be like Heavy Rain, as far as mechanics are concerned.

Enemy3518d ago

Actually it doesn't get more interactive than Quantic Dream games. You could interact with anything you see on screen.

Spotie3517d ago

I hope they ignore the opinions of stealth trolls on N4G and keep doing their thing.

All_Consoles3517d ago

I play games and not movies, sorry if my opinion hurts you

Dontworrybhappy3517d ago

Also no one even knows what n4g is besides those that reside.

amiga-man3517d ago (Edited 3517d ago )

It's called variety All-consoles, not everyone will enjoy a shooter not everyone will enjoy racing etc, my daughters favourite game was Heavy Rain she has played it through numerous times as have I.

Enjoy the games you like and leave others to enjoy the games they want, at least with Sony you know they are always ready to try different things, not every game has to be a shooter.

DigitalRaptor3517d ago (Edited 3517d ago )

It depends what you think constitutes gameplay.

It's an adventure game. You are still interacting with the game, you just get a different response than you would from an action game. Might as well call all point-and-click or graphic adventure games, movies, if you're gonna try and say that Quantic Dream games are more movie than game.

specialguest3517d ago

@All_Consoles

I completely agree. Let's hope for some of us that it's not another interactive movie. I have my doubts that Quantic Dreams will go the more convention route though, because that's just not their style.

I was trying not to shed tears, goddamit.

I'll buy me 7 of that Kara.

Paprika3518d ago

For what reason would you need 7? I sense some heavy usage... let alone rain!!

SpadeX3518d ago

That was only a tech demo to show off their next game which was Beyond Two Souls. I must say it was indeed impressive, and I certainly wish they turn it into a full game somehow.

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_Mal319d ago (Edited 319d 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.

mjchitown319d ago

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

Sonic1881318d ago (Edited 318d 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

porkChop319d 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.

CrimsonWing69318d 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.

porkChop318d ago

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

CrimsonWing69318d ago

@porkchop

The Game Awards, you’re right!

Kekewei318d ago (Edited 318d 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

mastershredder318d ago

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

Snookies12318d 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?

JackBNimble318d ago

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

RedDevils318d ago

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

GoodGuy09318d 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_toad600d ago (Edited 600d ago )

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

masterfox600d ago

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

rlow1600d 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.

MadLad600d ago (Edited 600d 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?
