The deal would make some of Viacom's cable channels available as part of a pay-TV service for owners of Sony products such as the upcoming PlayStation 4. Not only would Viacom's lineup strengthen the service against cable companies and Netflix , it could also spell trouble for Microsoft's competing Xbox One console.
A MultiVersus developer seems to be suggesting that a new Steven Universe character is going to join the roster soon, something that might even have been backed up by leakers.
We're just a few days away from the long-awaited relaunch of MultiVersus and while most of us are just excited to get our hands on the new Season 1 characters like Jason, Joker, Banana Guard, and Agent Smith, that hasn't stopped Player First Games from teasing some future additions.
LEGO and Sony may be developing a LEGO game based on the hit Horizon video game, potentially featuring playable LEGO machines and more.
This could work and would be very interesting and fun the way these robots break
A Lego game? I would never buy it and it’ll flop badly because the Lego games are cartoon or big movie licenses that appeal to casual and families with kids. Horizon no one knows what that is.
I agree in that this is not something I am interested in at all. Maybe the target is a Horizon game that doesn’t require a mature audience and can be sold to kids. Just a thought. 🤷
But those kids don't really know what Horizon is. And why bring them into a franchise where they can't play the other games? Idk man, it seems like a really weird decision.

My son is is fascinated by our models of the various creatures from Horizon. He's always asking about them, and wants to play with them, but he's much too young to play the games.
What harm is there in producing a game that is accessible to a younger age group?
I mean, previous Lego games have been based on franchises that are traditionally more mature than the games themselves. And they sold perfectly well. I understand that this is a slightly different situation, but that doesn't mean it won't be successful.
From Sony's perspective, they currently have a bit of a lack of games targeting younger audiences (something that consoles are uniquely positioned for). Of all Sony's franchises, Horizon is one that has the potentially of appealling to children. So in that regard, it's a perfect match.
Im sure it could be a good Lego game. The problem for me is I don’t care for the Lego games. Obviously this isn’t catered to me so I don’t mind it being a thing as I have plenty of other games to play. For the people that do enjoy Lego games I’m sure it could be on of the best Lego games if done right.
GL: "Staff writer Shaz reflects on his small library of physical games he's kept throughout the decades, and how a recent move made him nostalgic."
I lost my drive for collecting physical games due to many discs lacking the whole complete game. Instead, of collecting games I started collected figurines.
I am a collector have a room dedicated with a couple original arcade cabinets, physical game library, old and new consoles and controllers backlit with LED lighting. It’s very cool to have but with emulation being so strong and prevalent, I sometimes feel foolish because the hobby is expensive and like another said, the full game is not always on the disc. Could probably spend more wisely but I enjoy it.
interesting!
This along with all the exclusive content from Sony Pictures, Sony Music and Sony Television will give Playstation a huge advantage in digital media content distribution.
Looks like a spoke too soon.....still submitting.
OT great feature for Sony. I makes sense for them to leverage their massive media channels.
They are planning something very interesting with digital and it all begins with with gaikai and ps vita tv. They plan on bringing a lot of streaming features to multiple devices along with different services.
The thing that annoys me here is that ps4 fan boys will eat this up and when xbox one said they were doing this it was a big uproar and called it dishonorable because it was now a entrainment console. Shame on you.
And I await disagrees..
