Interesting, so Sony wants in on the hybrid console biz. How would it work for Blu Ray discs? Would have to be pretty big or maybe digital only. Will there be different versions of the PlayStation 6? Tv only and handheld?

Edit: you should never hive your console a code name that rhymes with Anus.

Maybe you could generate a digital code for your physical game and you could then download the digital version?

So I think the prime games should look to Star Wars outlaws as a path forward.

You would wander about towns with lots of npcs, drive about open worlds. Meet interesting characters.

Jump in your spaceship and have space travel and combat, with multiple worlds.

Then you would go into areas which are just designed like traditional Prime stomping grounds.

I could see them copying the Switch model, where you have a dock and a console that throttles depending on the usecase.  It's been succesfull for a reason, and Sony's always been better at itteration on other people's designs than coming up with fresh ideas of its own.

If it's still a few years out it's not unrealistic to expect it to hit PS5 'low power' performance when not docked.  As for physical games, I could see the dock including a BluRay disc player, where the handheld would be digital only and where games are just required to be installed to be played in handheld.

I beat the ice station in Metroid prime 4.

Good stuff, liked the boss. Really enjoying the game.

At worst it's an 8/10 and depending on the rest of the game probably a 9 for me.

I think it will be two separate systems with your games being shared between handheld and console through your online account.

"Samus aran being a complete mute and essentially a robot in metroid prime 4 is dumb."

Saw this on Gaf. What say you?

I think if she was a talking character lots of people would hate it.

I think they should say her suit is alien and the Chozo used psychic thoughts so even if Samus talks inside the suit theres no way for people outside of it to hear her.

But when she takes it off she can talk.

PS5 is only in the middle of the journey and we are really planning to expand it even further (Sony CFO Lin Tao)

Actually this suggests they will just release a Playstation handheld and leave ps5 as the main platform for a few more years. Shared game ownership I'm guessing between ps5 and the new handheld.

Same here. Liked the area and it was a fun boss fight.

Don’t mind traversing the desert area either but having to go back to base camp to get Myles to install these upgrade chips each time kind of sucks.

Make sure you collect those green crystals as you go instead of waiting.

Trying not spoil but when she shrugs later in the game, I was cracking up for a few minutes.

Yeah, been doing that while traversing and doing some exploring. I don’t even mind doing that too much either.

It does seem quite weird that she doesn’t talk at all. Some interactions feel like she at least say something. I’m sure there would be some that would hate her having a voice at all but I think they should have given her one regardless.

I only played a little of that quite awhile ago but I believe that she does.

Yes and people savaged it.

It's like Link.

Make him speak and people will go nuts. Yet its weird he's a mute.

So my Samus solution makes the most sense narratively. She's wearing alien tech so she cant speak without removing her helmet.

I've driven trucks over barren landscapes for 350+ hours in Snowrunner.

I'm okay with returning to Miles lol

Hideo Kojima talks about OD - Knock and Physint

08.12.25 - Hideo Kojima has spoken to Ananweb about the horror game OD (platform: TBA) and the "next generation action espionage game" Physint (PS5).

OD - Knock initially looks like an ordinary horror game in the trailer, but is supposed to pursue a concept that has not yet existed in this form. Kojima pointed out that previous work was based on well-known game designs, despite unusual ideas.

This time, a completely different system and service architecture is planned, which makes the development process particularly challenging. Clues are deliberately hidden in the trailer, and attentive fans can see possible connections.

told Physint that an espionage project of this kind is comparatively easy to structure, as established mechanics such as sneaking, infiltration and combat work well. Nevertheless, the team sees a challenge in going beyond familiar patterns: The plan is to use new interactive elements and a way of working that interlinks film and game production more closely.

Kojima also observes the rapid social development and considers that themes of the game could possibly appear earlier in reality.

Not having understood their own fans, Three Field (Wreckreation) now 2 steps away from closing

We don't understand Three Fields Entertainment. The studio, founded by the former Criterion employees, took time to build before delivering in 2019 what everyone expected from them, so Dangerous Driving, the spiritual sequel to Burnout. It was clearly imperfect, it lacked content due to a lack of budget but it's okay, we were on the right track, to the point of seeing the company announce a little later a Dangerous Driving 2.

And then finally, this sequel turned into a community and creative experience under the name of Wreckreation, available since October 25th, and Burnout fans turned their backs on this betrayal for the expected effect: it's a commercial failure, THQ Nordic has packed up its checkbook and now, not only should the post-launch content be canceled, but Three Fields Entertainment is now at risk of closure if they don't find a new publisher to make money.

The co-founders indicate their disappointment for themselves, the project and the employees, but at the same time eh...
