hmm interesting?

edit: yeah read it very interesting

Mucudadada5230d ago (Edited 5230d ago )

Obviously, someone failed to read the rest of the article. I discuss how it could be something else at the end.

Edit: Ok, you changed your comment, lol

Mucudadada5230d ago (Edited 5230d ago )

It was a joke... I was making fun of the entire situation.

Edit: Haha, thanks. It really is getting ridiculous. I thought about even putting maybe int he title.

RememberThe3575230d ago (Edited 5230d ago )

You really would need any use for this other then a car combat game.

Haha that damn edit button. You went and made my comment not make sense.

Sev5230d ago (Edited 5230d ago )

I've got a great idea as to what it might be. Let's just say him and another well-known dev talent switched PS franchises. So everyone's looking in the wrong place for each of these devs' games.

BTW - that's just speculation, not at all a fact. I very well could be wrong.

Kleptic5230d ago

Vigilante 8? haha i don't remember who even made that game, but it was pretty awesome too...

cLiCK_sLiCK95230d ago

Whatever he is making, im sure it wont disappoint. After all, he did create God of War and Twisted Metal. This game is in good hands. =]

ProA0075230d ago

the dude is good and all but let's not tread him as a god for every thing he touches. Have you forgotten he was the one behind that debacle of a game, Calling All Cars?

Kleptic5230d ago

CAC wasn't that bad...just small, and overpriced for being so small...but it was fun imo, great game with 3 other friends after a night of drinking too much barley soda...even the most inebriated of individuals could easily play it...

Rock Bottom5230d ago

Logic error?!!! These articles keep getting more and more retarded, N4G before E3 is a sad place.

tplarkin75230d ago (Edited 5230d ago )

Why would everyone assume it's a AAA title when his last title was Calling All Cars?

It's obvious that Jaffe is not a hard working AAA developer. He's a John Romero. He takes credit for a game that fell on his lap. The team does all the work while he schmoozes the media. The team gets sick of hearing his voice and then tells him to take a hike.

There's no "work" in "Eat Sleep Play". (But, we know that he's mean to his employees when they don't work to his satisfaction. Jaffe said this himself.)

jjohan355230d ago

dude lay off the poor guy's tweeter site.

XactGamer5230d ago

I think Jaffe is screwing with people and will have something at E3. It's funny I both like and hate Jaffe at the same time. He is a genius at game design but you just want to put some duct tape around his mouth.

gamelova5230d ago (Edited 5230d ago )

As the mastermind behind Twisted Metal Black and God of War, Jaffe will succeed, whatever he is making, I am sure it will blow us away. Twisted Metal Black was a special game for me. It was the first PS2 game that blew me away, it was the earliest PS2 killer app, and I was amazed on so many levels. I wish Jaffe is making a TMB sequel, but hell, it doesn't matter, it could be the start of a glorious new IP of the same quality as God of War. I have faith in whatever he is doing. I can't wait till E3

I'd bet that it's exactly what Jaffe has hinted at and it's a reboot of the series. I think he realizes how disappointed Twisted Metal fans would be if he teased all this stuff and came out with a completely different type of game.

Szarky5230d ago

"Confirmation" and "probably" should never be in the same sentence. It's cofirmed or it's not.

Mucudadada5230d ago

Haha, I agree. I did it on purpose to show how kind of ridiculous the situation is.

Bathyj5230d ago

You saved me writing a post. You literally said word for word what I was going to say. Have a bubble.

Of course I had to write a post anyway to tell you, you saved me writing a post so really all you did was steal my thoughts, and take credit for them.

You can still have the bubble.

colonel1795230d ago

I wrote the same thing without reading the comments first..

Logic FAIL :P

Faztkiller5230d ago

If he's not making TM he's really wanting to make one in the future

knight6265230d ago

idk what he is making but i cant wait for him to reveal his game to us

What a great game this was. Man we could use some more of these...

darthv7215h ago

Does this game support cross progression? I still have not beaten the first (I got sidetracked with lots of other games) and Id like to pick up where I left off through this version.

Zeke6814h ago

Yes, if you mean PS4 to PS5 to PS5 Pro. Same save can be imported.

Zeke6814h ago

To clarify, I played it on PS3 OG version. Imported that save to my PS4 remaster, imported that one to the PS5 remake. Hope that makes it more clear. ;)

Zeke6813h ago

@darth72 Oops sorry, my wife you told me the remake DID NOT support old saves. She said I restarted the game and usually she have a great memory. So sorry, it seems I was wrong about the remake! :(

CobraKai11h ago

Sick that your wife actually paid attention to your hobby.

Zeke683h ago

@CobraKai Yes, that is impressive, especially as she ain't a gamer herself.
I was probably talking about having to start a new game in the Remake and it stuck in her memory I guess. 🤷😁

Sad that this deep into PS5 and not one new ND game has been released.

Game Journalism is too corporate to trust

Game reviews have been around since the mid-1970s. Play Meter was the first of its kind. During their time, it was mainly coin-operated machines that were covered, as certain arcade games that many of us consider classics such as Space Invaders were popular. Other publications sprang up, such as Arcade Alley in 1979. From then on, gaming journalism was on the rise. Electronic Games Magazine, Famitsu, The Games Machine, Nintendo Power, and others all gave way to gaming journalism’s growing popularity and importance. In the beginning, gaming journalism was about the love of the games, the history of the product, and giving potential consumers genuine insight. The passion was there. The commitment was there. The insight was there. And most importantly, the trust was there.

That and a bunch of haters have made gaming a big negative cesspool.

lodossrage2d ago

True, that's almost as much of a problem as the gaming media itself

CrimsonIdol1d 7h ago

There's a fair bit to hate about big corporate game companies

"I've got a great idea! Let's turn this article about corporate journalism into an attack on gamers!"

It’s always those pesky gamers huh

Smellsforfree11h ago

Honestly, I find it amusing how all the incel hater left over rejects from gamer's gate lose their shit every time a non-scantily clad female protagonist is announced. Lol, they should just get out of gaming -- clearly it isn't for them anymore.

They've become nothing more than corporate shills. Rather than speaking truth to power, they're just looking at the latest clickbait no matter how false it is.

The straight up lies are annoying. Then journalists claim that a lie is an opinion. Um... no.

yea its been like this for years and only has gotten worse during covid.

they are sometimes worse than celeb. trash news ha.

"you will NOT believe what the DEV of XYZ said"

or and those are my favourites,

"XYZ game gets REMASTER TREATMENT" and you click on the link and its just a god damn mod ha.

Tacoboto1d 8h ago

"XYZ Players are saying THIS about the new update!"

And the article is based on a single tweet from someone with an anime profile image

porkChop1d 1h ago

It's going to get even worse because IGN bought out a bunch of their competition this year. So IGN now publishes games, sells games, reviews the games they publish and sell, and controls a large portion of games media. What could go wrong?

JackBNimble16h ago

IGN has no more credibility then CNN

Mr_cheese1d 1h ago

N4G owners are the worst for that.

One tweet or reddit comment = full blown article

Profchaos1d 9h ago

The gaming landscape today is full of corporations trying to suck as much money out of us as possible while giving us as little as possible in return that's the biggest problem I see right now and the fact the journos should be the ones calling the gross practices out now suckle at the teat of the publishers to stay in favour and maintain working relationships to avoid being blacklisted for reviews and preview events show their interests do not align with ours.

HankHill1d 9h ago

Consume the new product and don't ask any questions.

Christopher1d 7h ago

Always question change, always seek out facts.

victorMaje1d 5h ago

Hey Chris, not sure if others have already suggested but here’s another idea for N4G, a website trust meter.
There used to be a way to click on the website of an article and downvote or something like that.
It can be like Steam’s rating, all time & recent.
Then the list of journalism website ratings accessible from a subdomain, jowebrat.n4g dot com :)

SimpleDad1d 2h ago

@victorMaje No, this site user opinions? NO. This is not how it works my Victor. Trust meter??? LOL.

User reviews... this is what you have to look for, because games are made for users... not journalists.
Even if something is review bombed... there has to be a reason, something is wrong and you should hold on with your hard earned money.

Game sites are pushing... what they need to push, or want to push, or both.
Yes always seek out facts, right on Chris.

victorMaje1d 2h ago

@SimpleDad

Of course games are made for users. That’s the whole point. I already seek out facts. Check my comment history you’ll see how I always advise to check trusted user reviews & I don’t pre-order.

Some journalism sites however do have user reviews, they’re not all bad journalism, these would raise the trust score of the journalism website, other stories with an agenda or disingenuous reviews could lower it.
Why not have such a tool coming out of N4G? It would be the metacritic of journalism websites, voted by N4G users. That doesn’t mean one should stop from also seeking user reviews.

thorstein13h ago(Edited 13h ago)

@victor that was an old feature on N4G. It went away before bubbles iirc.

Bubbles were how many comments we were allowed to make per story and you could earn more or lose them. Trolls would have 1 bubble. New users were limited to the number of comments so that prevented spam accounts.

A user like me had 12 bubbles right before it went away.

I miss bubbles.... and Cat.

Rarely are review bombs rational. Rarely.

I have to disagree. Personally, I feel like DD2 still needs a lot of optimization. I really dislike games that try to sell a bunch of DLC when their game is still a mess.

Redgrave3d ago

This, RDR2, Bloodborne.... and of course, Life of Black Tiger.
