WOW! Nine PS3 exclusives announced so far this year. That's why Sony has the hardcore locked down. Sony cares about the gamers while other gaming companies don't. We've heard all the excuses as to why the competition don't have exclusives like "its too late in the generation", well that's not stopping Sony.

Anyway, I can't wait to play these awesome exclusives.

Ezz20134179d ago (Edited 4179d ago )

(yeah ..it got old i know but i couldn't help my self lol)

LOGICWINS4179d ago

Yakuza 5 was confirmed for territories outside of Japan?

guitarded774179d ago

@ LOGICWINS

Not yet I don't think, but it is highly likely to make its way outside Japan since 3, 4 and Dead Souls did this gen.

Infernostew4179d ago

One Piece Pirate Warriors 2 is also coming Summer 2013 to Europe so most likely another PSN release for NA.

Skips4179d ago (Edited 4179d ago )

Puppeteer could be Sony's next huge 2D platformer next to LitteBigPlanet!

Sony should create (or buy) a studio that focuses on RPG's too. That would be epic!

Geez, Gamingbolt does it...but OPSM do it? Annoying. OPSM should atleast try and have some respect. Gamingbolt can **** off for all I care

Ezz20134179d ago

i don't know why they keep do that

insomnium24179d ago (Edited 4179d ago )

Don't forget Strongman. The force is srong around the "nobody buys these games"-comment too. That's the grand mother of all excuses. I mean they actually think that people who are commenting on gaming forums are not buying games for their console. I've heard of desperation but that claim single handedly puts every other excuse to shame.

Looks like it'll be a solid year for PS3.

akaakaaka4179d ago (Edited 4179d ago )

Not only that but I got the luck to see the new next gen Guerrilla Game IP and it look stunning! And it seem that it will launch first day with the new PlayStation and I'm not allowed to say the name sorry.

Plus I algo got to see Killzone2 UHD remake and yes folks it was running at 120fps 4k resolution and tgey told me it will be running at 1080p 3D at 60fps. KILLZONE 2 at 4k made look Crysis one on a high end pc like a PS2 game and I eill not explain why, wait and see..

Tales RPG addict4179d ago

If Last Guardian makes an appearance this year it'll be a great year.

Ezz20134179d ago

it will be awesome year for ps3 owners
with this game or with out

but i really wish to see it this year though

kayoss4179d ago (Edited 4179d ago )

forget about if it even comes out this year. let just say It will be a great year for Sony if the last guardian gets a release date. Thats all im asking for a release date so i know that the game is not cancelled.

guitarded774179d ago

It would be great if it made its way out this year, but the release date in the article cracked me up... it had 2011 (mark through), 2012 (mark through), 2013? Regardless, 2013 looks to be an epic year for PS3... some amazing games coming out.

GalacticEmpire4179d ago

What a fantastic time to own a Playstation; loads of great exclusives, all the best multi-plats, a Naughty Dogs release, Studio Ghibli (Ni No Kuni) and possible next-gen announcements. Exciting stuff.

Riderz13374179d ago (Edited 4179d ago )

Puppeteer looks fantastic. That Halloween trailer they had made me pre-order the game. The creativity is abundant, something which most games nowadays lack.

XXXL4179d ago

The last of us and GOW are no brainers. I'm really intrigued by until dawn and puppeteer. Both look unique and pretty interesting

Until Dawn's PC Release Holds Massive Untapped Potential

Until Dawn is receiving a remake and is being ported to PC and PS5, and this is a move that has massive potential for the game.

At least it's mostly cinematic. I worry about performance currently of anything running on Unreal 5 that has any kind of "action" in it.

Neil Druckmann: Philosopher gamer behind 'The Last of Us'

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.

Lightning7718d ago

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.

Crows9017d ago

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.

Lightning7717d ago

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.

AsunaYuukiTheFlash16d ago

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.

rippermcrip17d ago

Kind of a weird interview. No substance, hardly any questions. It's almost like they forgot to post the whole thing or something.

neomahi17d ago

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

anast17d ago

Non of this makes sense. I would like to think you didn't spend too much time writing it.

Crows9017d ago

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...

MIDGETonSTILTS1717d ago

You project your own views on the world, and that is a mistake.

Crows9017d ago

Um...so you project someone else view on the world? What are you talking about?! We all project our view on the world lol...smh

anast16d ago

It's called perspective. I understand that. But I don't understand the poster.

smashman9817d ago

you know it's not his fault that people are interested in what he says, right?

Also, Naughty Dog is bigger than ever.

Crows9017d ago

Smaller....where's their last big game? Yeah...I remember when they were actually releasing heavy hitters.

smashman9816d ago

@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.

anast17d ago

He's a solid theatre arts person, but he's not a philosopher. Being good at one thing doesn't mean he's Descartes.

DarXyde17d ago

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.

Chard17d ago (Edited 17d ago )

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

anast16d ago

@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?

MIDGETonSTILTS1717d ago

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.

anast16d ago

That wouldn't be a smart decision. There must be a constant stream of connection in today's world.

MIDGETonSTILTS1714d ago

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.

Until Dawn Remake vs. Original Comparison Highlights If This Is A Worthy Upgrade

Until Dawn is getting a remake which always felt like an odd choice since the original still looks pretty good, is it worth the upgrade?

CrimsonWing6920d ago

Not really… they just couldn’t be bothered with making a sequel? This original is already available on PS5 and for the cheap. This just seems kind of pointless and I’m not seeing anything that screams next-gen remake to me, but if you’re a fan of it and looking forward to this, more power to ya’

Amplitude20d ago (Edited 20d ago )

Dark Pictures Anthology games didn't exactly sell well, but they were much lower budget games that reused assets all over the place.

Its probably safe to assume that this remake - which will also presumably reuse but improve assets from the original - is a test bed to see if a high budget sequel is actually financially viable. Also brings in people who never played it when it released 9 years ago.

I'm just spit balling but it makes sense.
Ill be buying it like I do all their games haha obviously I'd rather a sequel but I totally get it.

outsider162420d ago

And of all the remakes we could have gotten, they choose this one.

MetroidFREAK2120d ago

As someone who hasn't played this before, I'll be snagging it on PS5

anast19d ago

It's a good game and it's definitely worth a purchase if you haven't played it before.

MrBaskerville19d ago (Edited 19d ago )

It's good, The Quarry is worth a look while you wait.

MetroidFREAK2119d ago

I have that on disc for PS5. That's on my backlog

Iceball200020d ago

Is there an upgrade fee for this or no? Like how TLoU had and Uncharted.

shinoff218320d ago

Even if their was. Actual work was put into this. Companies that give it away were doing it and thanked for it. Or they were doing it cause they fked up really bad Ala cyberpunk

Also you have to be mistaken cause the last of us is a straight up remake, mad work was put into that. You also didn't have buy it or anything to play the ps4 version. It was also one of the best games for awhile and it's certainly better then anything the other high end console has put out in a very long time if ever

Crows9019d ago

What other high end console?

anast19d ago

What do you do for a living? What ever it is I want you to do it for free.

cthulhucultist19d ago

Having played all Dark Pictures Anthology games as well as the Quarry, I am definitely not skipping this one.

I would even buy the original if it was on PC, since I only have a Steamdeck and a Switch.

I remember that it got surprisingly good reviewed and the Quarry has loosely the same premise as Until Dawn (not exactly the same but similar setting)

on_line_forever19d ago

Wait a minute why they use sun lights in horror game ? What's wrong with those developers ?

Even in Silent hill 2 remake bloober team use sun lights in hospital reception WHY ? The whole city is covered with fog

Really bad developers we have these days
