Sony dominated the conversation at Gamescom this year thanks its purchase of Insomniac Games, Death Stranding, Erica, and more.
The iconic stealth-action Syphon Filter series is nowhere to be seen, while Sony's busy planning more ridiculous live services.
Sometimes bringing back an old IP is like digging up a corpse and peeing on it, just look at Duke Nukem Forever, be careful what you wish for.
You are essentially asking Sony to make a better game than MGSV. That is risky given were stealth action games are right now.
If Sony can make a multiplayer component to go with a story mode like the great PSP games I think people would like this alot.
I've always wanted a reboot of Syphon Filter 1 at the quality level of Uncharted 2 or better. But the game has been abandoned like many previous Sony games that made other generations memorable.
The music, the voices, the story, the weapons and the amazing Taser were awesome for the time. The boss battles cool. But Bend and Sony don't care about bringing it back. About as bad as many other properties from Sega, Capcom, Namco, Konami, etc that we'd love but won't be getting.
Yup. Seems like Sony is dialing back on the live service plans but not completely. I wish they’d just can them in general. Maybe just let Bungie do Marathon and pivot everyone else.
Intercept Games, the developer of space sim Kerbal Space Program 2, appears to have been shut down by parent company Take-Two.
This year is starting to look like it's going to have an infamous nickname at some point in the future.
As part of previously-announced layoffs, Take-Two Interactive is closing Intercept Games and Roll7.
I loved Rollerdrome and was looking forward to a Rollerdrome 2. 😐
Don't want to be melodramatic but as far you can be upset over video-game news ... bit heartbroken.
I feel like there's a trend of well made games like this going largely ignored by the gaming audience. It's quite frustrating. I hope the devs form a new studio but I suppose they'd have to start again from scratch.
Olliolli 2, olliolli world and rollerdrome are some of my favorite indies of all time. This industry is disgusting lately.
I loved Olli Olli.
I wanted to like Rollerdrome a lot more than I actually did. Shame about the studio though
m$, who?
nobody had thunder at gamescom
What Thunder Gamescom was great.
This is how Sony did it

That's all it took to rain on their competitor's parade.
