Here's a thick slice of speculative pie, coming from 1UP's own rumor mill. With the surprisingly positive reactions Sony has received from reviving the classic PS One Warhawk, it's not too far off the beaten path to assume Sony would consider bringing back other classic franchises for a PS3 reimagining.
The game in question for a revival is rumored to be JetMoto. Since the original is up on the PS Store for purchase, we think there may be slight credibility to this rumor. What do you guys think? Is it possible more games from Sony's past will reappear on PS3 as some kind of fan-service, or is Warhawk going to be it for the classics?
PlayStation Beat: 2013 was the year for new hardware. 2014 is the year of new games. Let’s resurrect these four exiled franchises to help out their respective consoles.
Thing is. Sony are too much about making money off successful franchises.
Too much of a gamble for them to Resurrect older ones.
As for the Getaway, That got canned back in 2007, it wouldn't fare well in the US, it's a mature version of GTA.
Huh?
Sony probably has the most new IPs last gen.. Including huge risks like Heavy Rain
Ok... So now we're pretending they dont already have a few new IPs announced for the future?
Let alone the Fact that Uncharted, Infamous, Resistance, The Last of Us, Heavy Rain, Beyond Two Souls, Demon Souls were all New IPs created in the PS3 era
@OverPaperSkies, if you're referring to Sony not having any new IPs for this generation...
- Driveclub (New IP)
- Transistor (New IP)
- Deep Down (New IP)
- Guerilla Games unannounced action game (New IP)
- The Order: 1866 (New IP)
- Resogun (New IP)
- Sony London working on a new IP
- Knack (New IP)
- Daylight (New IP)
- Rime (New IP)
Need me to continue? Sony's always pushing out new IPs, as well as supporting older IPs.
transistor not exclusive it coming to pc just like their last game launched on pc before consoles. sony do put out new ips more than ms and nintendo
Some franchises you just go with cause they're proven. If people know that some of their favorite ips exist, then you have the ear of your customer base.
The Order 1886, is extremely huge when it comes to new series. Sony is for great generations deep, so they know where they stand and what we want.
hmmm they just resurrected sly cooper, and before they changed their minds and made the last of us, naughty dog had been given the green light to bring back jak & dexter, sooooo.
also they've been taking gambles and releasing new IPS's left and right the last two years, the last of us, beyond: two souls, puppeteer, rain, Tokyo jungle, wonderbook (for crying out loud, if wonderbook isn't a gamble, than what is).
now are they about making money off of successful franchises? yes they are, but not anymore than anyone else. In the last few years we have seen kratos on a new or rereleased game cover about just as much as we have seen Mario and Master chief on new or rereleased game covers
a new jet moto would look amazing, same with a new mechassault
off topic: seeing mechassault made me think back about other games I had on the original xbox, and damn the first xbox was a good ass system! i know games like ninja gaiden, riddick and knights of the old republic have been rereleased on other platforms now, but nothing beats the first time i played them.
back on topic: I would also like to see a new buffy the vampire slayer game, the original xbox versions were good games, also a proper legacy of kain game would be welcomed as well
I don't know about 64 players, but "Jet Moto" was definitely my favorite racing series back in the PS1 era and I'd love to see it come to PS4. I asked Shuhei Yoshida about a possible new installment via Twitter late last year but no reply.
Hopefully we'll get one, though.
How about resurrecting GOOD, complete games instead of cash-ins and cut content passed as DLC. I'll add to the list:
Xenogears
Einhander
Bushido Blade
Rival Schools
Street Fighter Alpha
Lunar
Sony should buy Crash and give us a proper instalment and also resurrect The Getaway. I love the first one.
Alright Sony, listen up and listen good. Gamers all over the world have been patient with you. Five years have passed and you've given us some absolutely incredible games: the glorious Uncharted series, the brutal Killzone 2, LittleBigPlanet, Motorstorm and Demon Soul's to name a few. We love them and will continue to shell out sixty bucks a pop for them, but to be honest, well, we believe you've got a few cards you're playing close to the chest -- cards which you need to throw down two months from now in Los Angeles. We here at PSE.com are not jaded, nor unrealistic; what we are, however, is confident that the following iterations of these five exclusive IP's would reap dividends, and more importantly, make us the happiest console owners on the planet earth. These are the five titles you MUST present at E3 2010!
Demonsouls2
demonsouls is like the "ONLY" game this generation where newbs can't exist, only game on all 3 consoles.
A sequal would be epic, and the online component in the game just genious, jump in the campaign and already only, so expect to get invaded by enemy players and get pwned.
Edit: oh yeah, and a remake of metalgear 1&2, hideo should do this b4 he retires. A Cell powered, bluray processed, stunning visuals of young Snake face to face with BigBoss on a PS3 in all it's glory... Just pure EPIC.
noobs still exist in Demon Souls ^^
If you spend time as Black Phantom you know what I'm talking about.
People who fall off a cliff by themselves when they're rolling away ^^
First off Dying for a game is retarded because then you can't play it.
That said the only game I would (Insert similar extreme situation here) for would be Persona 5. I would like to see some other games but most of them are more then likely a matter of when not if.
The only one on this list that really interests me is Jet Moto. That game in full HD with stunning graphics would be crazy. However the rest I don't care about(Legend of Dragoon) or are gonna get a HD version sooner or later(Syphon Filter/Starhawk/Jak and Daxter)
Medievil!
Loved that game/franchise on PSX.
Ofc, I'm always up for great RPGs like Persona 5 and Legend of Draggon
Yeah, a new Twisted Metal would be awesome. I'll cross my fingers.
However, I'm not really clamoring for any of the games on their list, except for maybe a new Jak and Daxter. But even then, I would still rather see Naughty Dog working on another iteration of the Uncharted series over a new Jak and Daxter.
A new Twisted Metal and Killzone 3 would have to be two of the games I am most hoping for.
Five years? It hasn't even been 4 years yet!
I want Killzone 3 and Uncharted 3!
Agent and the next GOW game!
This article starts off showing just how little the author knows. Sony has only had 3 years with the PS3. If they meant more than just PS3 then your looking at 20 years.
What was wrong with the visuals? Considering how large the levels were I thought they did a fantastic job with it.
ds had great graphics and FROM's art designs are second to none. those monsters are like something out of hp lovecraft's fever dreams.
Yeah, I dont think I ever had any issues w/ the visuals.
Yes they aren't Uncharted/GOW3 style, but it's a much more open game than those.
As long as the game is good looking, i dont mind.
Because the grey and dark atmosphere works really well with the gameplay
I want a Zombie FPS with a massive scale, so it can fully exploit Blu-ray.
this game was good but not better than Wave Race 64 IMO.
Easily one of my favorite videogame series in the early PS1 years. Jet Moto 3 SUCKED thanks to 989 Studios buying the license though.
cool
989 ruined a lot of games, but Jet Moto was fun. I loved flipping and stuff. A PS3 makeover and online play would make this game SIC
PS3 is gonna have like 100 first party games, but 360 people will be like, it has no games. Wait, most 360 owners will have a PS3 by then, my bad.
