That doesn't mean anything if you don't use those IP. And no, you don't have the best collection of IP. Square Enix
does even if they don't use them.

Your games sell very well but that doesn't mean they are the best.

Maybe it is the fact that they don't release each IP every year, but carefully pick and choose, while assuring that we get the very best, is why they are so successful.

We will see a new RDR and Bully. We will see another Bioshock, Mayne a remaster hopefully.

Bit I don't want to see them every year. I like GTA being released and supported to the fullest. RDR2 will get the same treatment.

DarkOcelet3061d ago

What about Manhunt 3?

Or Spec Ops 2?

Why arent those two been made yet?

AudioEppa3062d ago

Still waiting on bully 2. We could have been playing bully 3 or 4 by now lol

I get it, want to keep it in the oven until it's at the peak of perfection, but goddamn don't over cook the shit.

Take-Two CEO Reveals How AI Can Make GTA 6 Even Better

GTA 6 could benefit from generative AI in these ways, says Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick.

EvertonFC161d ago

GTA7 will have the AI stuff, not happening yet with GTA6 imo, not with what was mentioned about building a in house AI which they haven't started with yet.

jwillj2k4161d ago

GTA 6 will have a lifetime of at least 20 years more than enough time for an in house ai engine

Wretchedstain161d ago

That all pales in comparison to the GTA 20 simulation we live in now....

aaronaton161d ago

The world they build for GTA6 won't look as good visually as Spiderman 2, it's just not physically possible, AI or not.

Tacoboto161d ago

Why not? Spider-Man 2 is based off of geometry and animation systems created initially for Spider-Man 2018. It has baked lighting for different times of day as opposed to real-time global illumination.

RDR2 looks unbelievable for a last-generation title and they do have Ray Tracing in the 60fps mode for GTA V on current gen; they both have real-time lighting; there's no reason to immediately shoot down a Rockstar title before you even see it

Bro. Rockstar literally sets the bar for open world visuals.

IamFrasierCrane161d ago

I’d put my money on Cyberpunk 2077

CrimsonWing69161d ago

I'm on board with it. Just as long as Skynet doesn't become self aware.

Number1TailzFan161d ago

Some may not want self aware robots/AI but I do, and so do many others. The faster the better, as it will help with curing diseases among many other things. The world will change hopefully mostly for the better, because right now it's heading down the toilet with all the wars and authoritarian snowflake crap ramping up.

CrimsonWing69161d ago

Well can we wait until we have guns that make cool sounds when shooting purple and blue lasers?

BlackTar187161d ago (Edited 161d ago )

Lmao robots will only drive the wedg in rich and poor

EvertonFC161d ago (Edited 161d ago )

I can't wait for AI to decode all the ancient texts, scrolls, Vatican archives etc and actually find out our proper history.

CS7161d ago

Where is everyone who was telling me AI is going to make gaming worse in the other thread?

maniacmayhem161d ago

That was only because it was related to Microsoft and Xbox. Then you get the usual faux outrage.

Fact is, most major gaming companies are investing in AI for game development.

You can argue that this may cut jobs all day long, but what tech advancement throughout the ages hasn't seen jobs disappear?

Besides it can't be any worse than what we're seeing today with mass layoffs across the industry.

anast161d ago

"Besides it can't be any worse than what we're seeing today with mass layoffs across the industry."

I'll give you a moment to correct this line of thinking.

Einhander1972161d ago (Edited 161d ago )

It's still bad, it doesn't have to do with who is doing it. It's going to cause massive loss of jobs, and if you think AI can make more interesting/contextually relevant NPC's than a human you're going to be wrong.

All you're going to end up with is NPC AI profile 7 in every game.

And even though these companies are talking about AI just for simple things it's obvious the long term goal is to get rid of writers voice actors even artists.

It's all or nothing, the suits want all... because they don't care about anything but money. They happily fire thousands of people while collecting record profits.

Rocketisleague161d ago

You're better off listening to developers and engineers than suits. "AI" as it currently stands is fucking shit. AI is a damn strong word to use for machine learning.

Sonic1881161d ago (Edited 161d ago )

I sure hope so because the enemy AI and companion A.I sucked in Starfield

Take-Two CEO Says Next-Gen Backward Compatibility Is a 'Benefit' but Not a 'Must-Have'

With recent rumors swirling around the potential for a successor to the Nintendo Switch, many fans and developers have been concerned about a possible lack of backward compatibility for such a console. And while the verdict hasn't quite been delivered on whether or not a "Switch 2" would have the feature, one major publisher doesn't seem too concerned about the prospect: Take-Two Interactive.

CrashMania254d ago (Edited 254d ago )

I disagree, with lots of people having big digital game libraries it's more of a must have than ever before, if the big guns are gonna kep pushing digital I think BC is the least we can expect.

But of course this guy will say this when rockstar are about to release a no effort port of RDR at a higher orice than it should be.

smashman98253d ago

If Nintendo doesn't have bc I'm not buying one till the end of the generation

Seraphim253d ago

as much as I appreciate, and have enjoyed having a Switch... if they don't offer bc I will wait out their next gen console and buy it only when there are enough games to where I feel I need to own it. The simple fact is that these consoles are going to inevitably die, and having newer, and newer hardware that plays these games is so much more than merely a benefit. It's a lifeline to your own gaming library.

JackBNimble253d ago

Sooner or later RDR will be on sale for $15 or $20 so just wait it out. You don't have run out and buy it day one, besides, why not wait for user reviews first?

And I also agree with you about the importance of BC. I have hundreds of digital games , some are also trapped on the ps3 which irritates me. It would be nice if Sony actually worked on a fix to get ps3 games BC with ps5 but we all know Sony isn't willing to do that.

neutralgamer1992253d ago

Exactly I am buying it but used copy for under 20. No one should pay 50

smashman98253d ago (Edited 253d ago )

fully agreed if Sony or Nintendo don't fully support their digital stores and bc going forward I will be purchasing all games on PC. I have no problem waiting to buy a used Playstation or switch with used exclusives.

neutralgamer1992253d ago (Edited 253d ago )

All I know is moving forward all games from ps4/Xbox one till present and future better be BC. Since they are all using similar specs and hardware

Stop being greedy

Smok91253d ago

Not many signs point to buying digital as a wise investment. The sheer fact that the big companies want you to go digital should be enough to make you reconsider let alone all the other incentives.

Funny because Take Two's upcoming Red Dead Redemption PS4 port would be completely redundant without the PS5's backwards compatibility

shinoff2183253d ago

I doubt it'd be redundant, there are 120 millions ps4s floating out there. That's where their gonna make there money , more so then ps5.

JackBNimble253d ago

And how many original owners are there? I got rid of mine and I know many people traded in for deals on ps5's.

ThichQuangDuck253d ago

well yeah because they want to sell you a remake or remaster

Zombieburger638253d ago

Another reason I enjoy pc. I can play games from any generation without having to hope console makers give a necessary feature like bc. It is 100% a needed feature and there’s many ps4 games that could get fps/res boost especially with new games now needing longer dev cycles.

Zombieburger638253d ago

It’s emulated but I already played it to death on 360. Don’t see what I said that’s so wrong guess it’s just console fanboys.

JackBNimble253d ago

Zombie
That's exactly what it is. Fanboy extremism

fsfsxii253d ago (Edited 253d ago )

dude nobody wants to configure a shit ton of files on pc or if the driver has failed just to play a game, istg pc gamers are worse than jehova's witness

Zombieburger638253d ago

It’s not 2005 pc gaming is as easy as consoles. I update my driver once every few months with no issues and configure files? You don’t need to configure files for any games what are you on about? This is why console fanboys are the worst because they are so damn ignorant.
