"While he was able to work on Ico for a time, he was compelled to find employment again as his savings started to run out. Fortunately, Sony Computer Entertainment was hiring for a CG artist.

"I applied for that, but I had one condition: that I couldn't work full time, because I needed time for myself," he said. "Sony asked what I was doing in my own time, so I started to talk about Ico. They understood the idea and then suggested I work on that Sony.""

That's exactly what I like about Sony.

Funny how thats reminds me of Lost soul aside and how a single man was working on it and just when he was going to cancel it sony stepped in and now he can make his dream come true

ninsigma2566d ago

Sony are publishing that now?? Awesome!

Fullmetalevolust2566d ago

I do enjoy the fact that the story telling is open ended and allows the player to make his/her own interpretation of it. There has always been great story telling in his games and a great vision on how to achieve it and I am glad that we have been able to play three amazing games by this man. Whatever he chooses to do in the future, I'll be patiently watching.

UltraNova2566d ago

Amen to that. Fortunatly for him he works for Sony.

I absolutely adore that moment at E3 2015, when he got a standing ovation from (most of) the crowd. Chills, man.

Kurdishcurse2565d ago

Agreed. Although i doubt he will take anywhere near as long as the last gardian. This game went through a fluster cuck of bad timings, art changes, hardware limitations and the biggest reason for its constant delays, waiting for the next gen console to develop on. It took a while for him to realize his vision is impossible to apply on the PS3. I remember him saying 4 years or somethin.

TheOttomatic912566d ago

If this was anyone else I would call them a mad man but I won't deny that playing TLG made me glad I formed my own story from what happened.

Kurdishcurse2565d ago

I love this guy. He understands that shoving the story down your throat doesnt make it any better. Oscar bait movie games from naughty dog and tell tale should learn from this guy. Sacrificing most of gameplay for the story is understandable for certain segments of games, to a degree. But at the end of the day, theres a reason why uncharted and TLOU have laughably low enemy variety, theyre so busy caring for the story, cinematics and banter that they completely forgot about the meat of the gameplay. Maan...i will never forget how shadow of the colossus made me feel...both my hands and my mind.

XDefiant dev promises fix to frustrating hit reg issues, though players remain skeptical

Mark Rubin, XDefiant’s executive producer, responded to an X/Twitter post that fixes to hit reg “are something [they] are working on.” Unfortunately, it’s unclear when it will arrive, as neither Rubin nor the development team have yet to provide an actual time frame.

Ha man what is this the 8th time they are working on this issue?

SO the game is using division one maps/assets with some divison 2 thrown in with that we can say they never really made the maps so what have they been doing for there 6 to perhaps 8 years of dev time? must be alot of hookers/blow/parties.

It's astounding how much money they blow and this is the results. Gaming development is out of control.

Right even when ubisoft cancelled division heartland as a beta player that game was a far better state then they push with this trash of a game that is still in a beta state after 3 years of delay's.

we are so starved of any decent fps/3rd person shooters out there it seems we will take anything even though some ps2 fps games were more fun then this game in my old opinion.

FPS_D3TH1d ago

Skeptical because it was an issue with ALL the betas and still hasn’t been fixed

just_looken15h ago

Its like they are using division one servers but they caught fire then were put together with barry/carols help from the janitors wing or some shit. Three years they still can not make it so the gun goes boom the guy gets hit then damage is applied.
