MediaStinger: "With 2013 most likely being the final year for big name games to be released on the current console generation, developers are trying their best to meet release date deadlines and push out all their final work before the next wave of systems. 2013 is a very questionable year for games: on one hand there’s a batch of amazing looking games that finally have actual release dates, like The Last of Us and Grand Theft Auto V, but others such as Prey 2, Star Wars 1313, and Watch Dogs are still titles that could very well end up being delayed into 2014 or seeing releases as next-gen titles."
who is now the sole leader of Naughty Dog, “I promise you, we will not be ‘The Last of Us’ studio forever.” Numerous games, he said, are in the works, including “multiple single-player projects.
I know he has a celebrity like status but unless he's announcing his game soon idc what he has to say from this point on.
We need announcement something from him.
The dude is a nobody. He's also wrong. Naughty dog is the uncharted and Jak daxter studio.
They only made one universally praised last of us game. They're not know as "the last of us studio" but they are currently known as the "remake" studio.
I like his games tbh I'm just more upset at the fact that he's been talking and talking and not showing anything. I'm an actual fan of his work, don't cars if that's that's a popular take or not.
If he has nothing to show or talk about. I don't care about his interviews, his red carpet appearances or what's next for last Of Us 2 TV, leave that to Hollywood. You don't see SP, Bend, or any other studio doing what he's doing. They're remaining quiet and focused as most PS studios do. He should do the same. The next thing I wanna hear him say is "now heres our game" we know that probably won't be for another year or so, so he needs to remain silent and stay out of the limelight for awhile.
You are wrong. LOU2 won a lot of GOTY and was highly rated. It's okay to dislike the game but saying that ND just made one critical acclaimed LOU game is just hating at this point.
Kind of a weird interview. No substance, hardly any questions. It's almost like they forgot to post the whole thing or something.
Oh brother...... It's like a balloon filling with helium. He's got nothing new to say. Naughty Dog went from being a studio of numerous developers to being about him and what HE does. Bruce Straley was the co-creator of The Last of Us, and he left--I think for the same reason Christophe Balestra left and since then, Naughty Dog haven't been the same. PlayStation is incredibly woke, as all businesses seem to be these days, ignorant to what's really going on sacrificing the greater for peanuts, but I think they left because of the uprising political atmosphere. They knew there was nothing they could do about it and an attempt to try and combat it, in today's society would end them up in legal trouble so, they just left, what else can you do when the opposition behaves like a child, screams and yells louder than you want to in raged fits, and will throw lawsuits at you at whatever chance they can, but you don't play that way, so they left. And Naughty Dog hasn't been the same since.
Naughty Dog was huge at one time! They were the underdog that became the top dog but, the direction it's fine, just watch and wait. It's ego, and Druckmanns ego of thinking they're untouchable and can just coast along, will drop them rock bottom, in due time, they could see the same fate as Xbox's teams met. Fans will turn on Naughty Dog because A) Naughty Dog aren't producing, they're not what they once were.
B) Gamers ARE growing tired of the woke culture overtaking their lifetime hobby. They're just more silent about it, it's the quiet cool
Non of this makes sense. I would like to think you didn't spend too much time writing it.
I hope you didn't spend much time reading..it...cuz obviously you didnt understand it. But that's okay. There's many other comments to read...
you know it's not his fault that people are interested in what he says, right?
Also, Naughty Dog is bigger than ever.
Smaller....where's their last big game? Yeah...I remember when they were actually releasing heavy hitters.
@Crows90 It was in 2020 and despite what a vocal minority says it was critically acclaimed and the 2020 game of the year. Not only that but The Last of Us is also a critically acclaimed television series and PlayStation's most successful foray into Film and TV yet.
So yes, Naughty Dog is bigger than ever, and just because you don't vibe with them or whatever does not change that fact.
He's a solid theatre arts person, but he's not a philosopher. Being good at one thing doesn't mean he's Descartes.
I believe that philosophers are more principled than Druckmann, to be honest. It's fascinating that The Last of Us Part II was literally inspired by the Israel-Palestine conflict and was a needed commentary on humanity and ending the cycle of violence, only to have some questionable commentary after 7 October.
I don't hate the guy as some others seem to. He's been a big part of some great games, but I'll never understand the obsession with hanging on all of his statements.
That's a good point in relation to 7 Oct - a far more important issue where valid criticisms could have been made of this guy, but most here seem thoroughly distracted by trivial issues
@DarXyde
Like all artists he has a signature. People that have an agenda will try to look for that signature and use it. This is why a lot of "journalist/game influencers" hang on every word. Most of us just enjoy his work and get hyped when he mentions something about a possible new game.
@Chard
"a far more important issue where valid criticisms could have been made of this guy"
Which is?
Sony should try and stay radio silence outside of hard reveals.
It’s painful to wait for any info at all, but it’s less painful than skimming an interview that avoids all details whatsoever.
Commit to radio silence, Sony. You can afford to leverage the trust in gaming output that you’ve cultivated.
That wouldn't be a smart decision. There must be a constant stream of connection in today's world.
When a constant stream of connection delays a game 1-2 years, and said games take 5 years to make anyways…. Sony fans are better off trusting Sony to deliver than expecting frequent confirmation.
Grand Theft Auto V was released over 9 years ago, but the player base is largely intact due to regular updates to the Online Multiplayer. The game had some technical issues at launch, most notably a CPU utilization issue, but most recent chips shouldn’t have any issues running it.
Subscribers of the Extra and Premium tiers of PS Plus will lose access to a total of 12 games during the month of June, 2024.
I think everyone and their sister owns the game by now. They likely want to squeeze the rest of the holdouts before GTAVI releases.
That game comes and goes from subscriptions so frequently I think it's expected now. Like rdr2 on gamepass Rockstar Games only last a max of 3 months On a service
indivisible was pretty neat. Cute artstyle, fun throwback to older RPGs, shame its leaving but it is on sale often
Definitely. I e joyed what I played of it. Still gotta grab the physical at some point
I'm not surprised by GTA V removal, Rockstar never allows this game to stay long on a subscription service.
They usually allow 4 to 6 months.
Yeah, they do that routinely with both GTA and Red Dead.
But it's because they know they can still sell them so they take them off and on to these sub services in cycle.
The weird thing to me is why is anyone still buying those games at this point? You would think after 3 generations of being sold GTA 5 that everyone and their momma would have it by now
I fail to see how the loss of an almost 11 year old game that released across 3 generations is in any way a problem.
Well I can say right now that my most anticipated is Ni no Kuni, since it's been delayed by a week in Europe and it's so damn close, it almost hurts.
Then the next group are BioShock Infinite, GTA V, The Last of Us and Sly Cooper 4. My anticipation for Beyond: Two Souls is climbing. Then there are games that I'm anticipated for but don't know enough about to get truly hyped: Watch Dogs, Star Wars 1313, Cyberpunk 2077, Remember Me etc.
that certainly is call of duty: modern warfare 4
Ni No Kuni
The Last of Us
Phantasy Star Online 2
Beyond
God of War Ascension
Tearaway
Soul Sacrifice
Killzone Mercenaries
I wish Zelda HD will launch this year but I doubt it.
"The Last of Us’ gameplay and story looks phenomenal and the perfect way to end the current console generation with the best game to date on May 7, 2013. Winner: The Last of Us."
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS .
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance
Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes
Modern Warfare 4
I hope ps4 and GT6 offical confirmed.
