Discussion Bungie’s integration into SIE deepens
When they did the layoff at Bungie, they also mentioned that in addition to the layoff some Bungie staff was going to move to other SIE teams. So I assume this is part of it. They already joined PlayStation when Sony bought them. SIE just reassigned or promoted talent moving it to some other... -
News Netflix has closed its AAA gaming studio, just 2 years after opening, with big hires like Joseph Staten - via Stephen Totilo
Most of them aren't. As an example, Netflix also has another studio in Finland. I know a girl who works there. -
Discussion Sony's Guerrilla Sounds Completely Done with the Killzone Series
I want a new SP focused Killzone with the vibes of Killzone 2, plus a remastered collection of the previous games. 360 didn't dominate anything, it only was released way earlier than PS3, so during its earlier years there wasn't PS3 in the market and PS3 got released when 360 was close to its... -
Discussion What do you think Bluepoint is working on?
It doesn't debunk anything I said. Yes, Ragnarok was the 'original content' or 'new game' they were working on after Demon's Souls, as it can double checked in the game credits and Linked In. Since they released GoWR (they didn't work in Valhalla) they are working in another new game (as... -

Discussion What do you think Bluepoint is working on?
We know Bluepoint's "own game" doesn't exist, they are a support team and they don't have the team needed to handle their own AAA team. I assume they are working as a support team on SSM's next new -or 'original', as you prefer- game (which I assume it will be a new IP). -
News Digital Sales Ratio 2024 Edition
It didn't, it has been something progressive year after year as we seen in Sony's publicly shared numbers for the whole PS catalog, not only the Sony games, which represent a small portion of the total market. As I remember two years ago it was around 70% for PS (worldwide, not just USA). There... -

PC Valve confirm Steam Deck wont have yearly releases, Deck 2 will arrive when a generational performance improvement does
Interesting. It's something positive for devs, who already support a huge amount of devices and more would mean more costs, longer dev tiemes and less profitability. -
News PlayStation & Insomniac see backlash following SM2 PC port announcement
Nah, like any other console in gaming history, after having passed its hardware sales peak year (last year for PS5) it declines. PS5 is performing almost like the PS4 even if PS5 had the shortages issues and couldn't price cut the console as PS4 already did at this point, but instead had to...- Yurinka

Discussion 12 Years and $700 Million Later, What's Going on With Star Citizen's Development?
Seems you don't know what a scam is, and that devs don't work for free and need time to make the games. To make games require money and time, and the bigger they are the more money and time they require. This is specially huge (I'd say the most ambitious game ever), so requires a specially huge... -
Discussion 12 Years and $700 Million Later, What's Going on With Star Citizen's Development?
It's nonsensical and stupid to talk about a scam, they released stuff and keep showing progress. It takes time because it's super ambitious. This weekend they had the yearly event where they show the progress made, and looks great. I know a guy who works there, he just shared this thread (in... -
News PlayStation & Insomniac see backlash following SM2 PC port announcement
A year or two again Sony compared PS5 vs PS4 launch aligned, and PS5 is getting better numbers in basically all revenue and engagement metrics, which is good. PS4 was also getting better numbers now than before in terms of game revenue, game subs revenue or engagement, which is good. Dozens of...- Yurinka

Sony isn't losing market share anywhere. The factual data says they are increasing it both in console and PC.- Yurinka

Discussion Making a game and wanted to ask people here a question...
Yes, many of them. Cool. Pro-tip: keep the scope as small as possible because often keeps getting bigger and bigger during development. Instead of adding many stages to provide extra content (that requires a lot of time and money), add stuff like leaderboards, small unlockables or rewards for... -
Discussion Making a game and wanted to ask people here a question...
Yes, the visual and unique flare are key. Unless people receive great impressions from someone they trust, when they see screenshots or a trailer with bad visuals of a game they just found and is from an unknown developer, they quickly avoid it. Regarding uniqueness, I (dev with almost 20... -
Discussion What genres or types of games do you miss, that are not made anymore?
I think it's hard because outside the top seller IPs these genres don't sell a shit and costs increased in a way that the minimum amount of minimum sales needed to make a new game sustainable is maybe too high for them. What could realistically happen is that once they run out of newer / better... -
Discussion Jez Corden whisperer presumably from xbox told him the generation for series console is at it's end.
I'd say MS is removing Xbox hardware availavility from some countries it isn't because if going to launch the next gen soon, but because of lack of Xbox demand there. Seeing the units being almost none in places like Spain, obviously in countries with smaller sales like Saudi Arabia they must... -
