I really wish this was a PS4 title.

mayberry3962d ago

Hopefully this will be a great blockbuster game too! I'm referring to "the last of us" review scores. I liked Indigo prophecy and Heavy Rain so my hopes are high for BTS. My launch 60G PS3 just wont stop performing like a BOSS!

bjmartynhak3962d ago

As much as I want it to succeed too, you bet that the game will be heavily criticized, just like Heavy Rain.

"it is a movie, not a game"
"just press the button"
"only QTE"
"I couldn't tell if I should dodge or attack with the right stick"
"I wanted to hold L1+R1 and spray bullets"

e-p-ayeaH3962d ago

So the game ends when she´s an old lady? xD

feraldrgn3962d ago

Please, please, PLEASE don't screw up the writing.
I want a mature well written experience, especially after Cage spoke of the industry needing to grow up.

Can't wait to see more of Willem Dafoe's character.

I dont really like the slow mo fighting-thats gonna get really boring

Heavy Rain was my favorite . Fahrenheit was great too

MadLad552d ago

Eh.

Beyond Two Souls and Detroit were alright for the most part.
They're still making games, so something going decent for them.

Supermassive is definitely beating them in this genre though.

David Cage defends response to allegations of unhealthy studio culture at Quantic Dream

From Eurogamer: "David Cage has responded to allegations of unhealthy studio culture and inappropriate behaviour at Quantic Dream, which he previously described as a "smear campaign".

Published in this month's Edge Magazine, Cage discusses in depth the company culture of the studio and denies a lack of humility in its response to allegations.

"I don't think we had an aggressive attitude," he said. "When you're accused of things that go against everything you believe in, everything you've done in your life, it hurts. It went beyond just attacking the studio culture."

Hasn’t this been a story for years now ? Doesn’t seem like anything changed or they have some very upset workers who lie for a long time ? Seems like it isn’t the latter .

SegaSaturn669654d ago

They should hire Kevin Spacey as a janitor. That would be awesome.

sourOG654d ago

The people who use words like “unhealthy culture” are usually mentally ill themselves. Not saying it’s not true, just sayin.

MadLad654d ago

Interesting comment to make ..

sourOG654d ago

Lol just saying. The last person I want to hear about “healthy culture” from is the people who use those words. Ususlly some kind of identity theory-ism. Commie talk.

jartoon654d ago

Okay... How would a mentally healthy person describe a shitty work environment?

sourOG654d ago

Shitty work environment

sourOG653d ago

I’m getting some disagrees so let me elaborate and try to change your mind.

Do you want to hear about healthy culture from people who celebrate fatness or put kids on puberty blockers as a few examples? That’s the kind of people who say shit like that and they are the most destructive force I’ve ever seen in my life when it comes to culture. Easily.

When you say culture what do you mean? The very core, right? The soul. QD is rotten to the very core and it needs to be replaced. With what? Ask whoever is using that term. I’m sure they have an idea. And I’d bet money their idea of healthy culture is ass backwards and not profitable lol.

Another example. I just saw a Kellogg ad that said “Food Justice for black communities”. They think they can trigger black folks into buying cereal with words like justice lol. They might be right, who knows. I laugh at shit like that though because I see right through these idiots.

TLDR:
Some people use words to communicate. “Shitty work environment”

Some people use words to manipulate. “Unhealthy culture” “Food justice”

Sites like Kotaku have been crapping on Cage for a long time now, to the point where I'm suspicious of if he has earned the bad rep he has. Go read Kotaku's review of Detroit, I recall it being borderline unprofessional.

Heavy Rain 2: Should David Cage Work on a Sequel?

Cage has confessed he has no plans for Heavy Rain 2, but fans have been quite vocal about their love for the game. Perhaps now that the PlayStation 5 is revolutionising the gaming landscape, we might get a proper sequel to one of the best games David Cage has ever made.

If he did it’ll probably be toned way down.

Ninver997d ago

No! Leave the IP alone. It's a classic.

NecrumOddBoy997d ago

No need. Heavy Rain was incredible as it was. Detroit Become Human was the next evolution. I do think they should continue with a new story but perhaps something less dark drama. I think it would be really cool to do something lighter with humor. The fantasy demo they showed off was pretty cool. If Kara became a full game, that would be great too!

smashman98997d ago

Correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't Detroit become Human the full game for kara

NecrumOddBoy996d ago (Edited 996d ago )

Yes. Kara became Detroit. Also the job interview trailer demo back in 2007/8 became Heavy Rain. There was also a video about an actor who was portraying a dark sorcerer. I think that could be something too. I was saying since Kara did become a game, then their newer demo trailer could have too.

smashman98996d ago

Oh ok I misunderstood. I see what u meant now.

Muigi997d ago

Lol I’m actually replaying that now love this and Detroit. Doesn’t need a sequel imo.

Orchard997d ago

No. One of the most boring games I’ve played.
