Remember when these guys used to innovate gameplay? The only innovation left in AAA Studios lately (by and large, big fat stinkers from SquareEnix aside) seems to be in trying to reduce capex and maximize returns on existing property and works. You used to be able to do both!

Both RDRs are fantastic and so was GTAV. Not to mention games like LA Noire, Max Payne, Bully etc. Maybe I'm in the minority here, but I'm looking forward to the unveiling for GTA6. Maybe I don't follow gaming news closely enough, but I don't see a reason to outright boycott them. I'll just play the games they make that interest me and skip the ones that don't.
I mean, sure, yeah. But ultimately the games they make don't interest me. RDR was pretty bad too. But since how insanely popular their games are, my boycott will do nothing

I am just waiting for RDR to get cheaper. I want to play it and the 60fps Patch on PS5 looks enticing... but not at full price.

Pretty sure he was being sarcastic.

I don't have an issue with RS putting out older games, I do however take issue with the price that they release at, Saying that I don't believe they are milking anything. People have asked for this for awhile, sure it did not release how some wanted (remaster) but they are released on newer hardware and a newer generation of gamers can play a game that may otherwise have missed out. I wished they would have released Red Dead Revolver also. I don't care for the price, nobody is holding a gun to my head to buy it at it's full retail, they will eventually get my money but it won't nearly as much.

Did anyone else play the Iki expansion on Ghost of Tsushima? Mine is super glitchy. So far I have actually seen the programing string that ties a rider to its horse (a literal white line on screen) and saw him slingshot back to the horse, I've fallen off of the top of a mountain and just been fine, and I had a death screen after getting a pillar of honor because "A Peasant Died." Just weird all around.

I didn’t have any of the glitches. Did ps4 and 5.

Huh. I didn't have many glitches during the main game, mostly normal open world stuff. Is there a button combo that makes yellow Xes appear over all of the enemies heads? That seems to happen to me randomly.

Of course game developers always cared about money, but what sucks these days compared to the old days is how expensive is it to make a game so a company like Rockstar doesn't take a chance with a game like Bully 2 or new IP they just stick to what makes them the most money like GTA and RDR, not that those games are bad at all in fact they're great but still. It's not only just money, a game like GTA 6 takes 3-5 years to make now so they don't have time for the lesser games either. On PS2 we got 3 GTAs each 2 years apart while in the same generation we got two more PSP GTAs, Bully, Red Dead Revolver and Manhunt 1 and 2 and a few other games all developed by Rockstar in one generation, that is not even close to possible anymore.

So Bluepoint Games is making a game and it's not a remake this time but it is a well known series. New Uncharted makes sense to me.

Are they ones that did shadow of the collossus and demon's souls or someone else? My hope would be Legend of Dragoon 2!! Naughty Dog isn't going to let anyone else do Uncharted. And since Sony has given them Sony liscenses in the past. We have to think about game series that maybe have been abandoned by their previous studios.
It could be anything like Ape Escape, Legend of Dragoon 2, Jak and Daxter (now this one is definitely abandoned by naughty dog), Dark Cloud, Twisted Metal. I mean Sony has a deep bag of abandoned good IPs.

How dare you put such wishful thinking into the universe. But if I remember correctly, Level-5 has been wanting to do a sequel to DC for a long time. Seems things just haven't lined up for them which sucks. At this point, I'd even take a Rogue Galaxy 2 from them

Won’t happen. Sony owns the IPs and Level-5 isn’t what it used to be. I’d lose my mind if we got a new Dark Cloud or Rogue Galaxy, but Sony is too busy moneyhatting Final Fantasy and hasn’t cared about making JRPGs of its own in a long, long time.

I thought Naughty Dog was done was Uncharted, but I would prefer they make the next Uncharted anyway. I would guess their next game is going to be Last of Us 3 but we'll see.
And yes Bluepoint remade Shadow of the Colossus and Demon's Souls. If I had my choice of which game they'd be making it'd be Shadow of the Colossus 2 probably.

I honestly just don't think they'll be a license as huge as Uncharted. If I had my choice it would definitely be The Legend of Dragoon. But my guess is it will be some sort of action game like ape escape, sly cooper, or jak & daxter.
