Scalebound preview and interview – Platinum is no more is ‘something that crosses my mind too’

Metro:
GameCentral talks to the creator of Bayonetta about his new Xbox One exclusive and the secret of Platinum Games’ success.

Hideki Kamiya, co-founder of Platinum Games, has a reputation for not suffering fools gladly, which was obviously a bit of a worry for me. But considering he’s responsible for some of my favourite games ever there was no way I could pass up the chance to meet him at Gamescom last week, even if the interview was only supposed to last five minutes. I must’ve got on okay though, as in the end it went on for over half an hour.

I'd say start with a remake. The original had some neat ideas but can greatly be expanded upon. Like trapping dinos behind laser barricades or tranq-ing them into submission. There is a lot of room to explore and flesh out these quirky gameplay mechanics.

If this happens then I hope they give us different level of dinasors some of them smart than other and of course good story and great gameplay

TheColbertinator31d ago

Onimusha? Okami? Maybe Dino Crisis too? Capcom is back in business.

Sure this 'Japanese guy' might be happy but what about the Western grifters? What about what they want?

Hideki Kamiya wants to revive Scalebound: 'Let's do it, Phil'

Hideki Kamiya is still interested in developing Scalebound, after the PlatinumGames and Microsoft action game was cancelled back in 2017.

He's been begging for the past three years. That ship has long sailed. Besides, Phil's a fake. When's the last time he delivered on a game the fans asked for? Still waiting on him to greenlight KI4.

@8bit
Yeah I mentioned that below. Although in comparison concord was a bigger failure.

MetroidFREAK21118d ago

I mean I'm all for it... I'd buy it for PS5 since Xbox is doing these multiplatform releases now

MetroidFREAK21117d ago

Well, I vastly prefer physical versions of games, and I can't do that with my Series S... sooooooo assume what you will

Lexreborn2118d ago

Scalebound was my reasoning for buying and Xbox one. Legit my biggest let down last gen

raWfodog117d ago

Same here. That was going to be the game I'd buy a Xbox One for back in the day. It'd be good if they did revive it and improve on what they had at the time.

Chocoburger118d ago

Seems odd to be asking for it now that he left Platinum Games. He'll be busy with Okami 2 for a number of years, does he expect to develop the game at Clovers studio now? Would they be picking up where they left off, or starting over again? Any of the previous team members, or just him?

I doubt Phil would fund it again, but if so, then that would be good news, also fund a new Banjo as well as Conker games while you're at it. I miss Conker!

Michiel1989118d ago

doesn't seem odd at all, he'd want work and that game even though it suffered some bad press with the cancellation and stuff is still something that people want to see (i think)
