Nah. Video games are their own thing they wouldn't be improved by leeching off Hollywood more.

Read the article and it gives no mention of the many problems prevalent with licensed IPs, such as games and dlc being delisted when their licenses expire, Adult Swim games being the most recent example.

Only if they're good, if its going to be a 2D sprite art game, you can get away with a small team and small budget. But if you're going to make it a 3D polygonal game, you're going to need a large team with a large budget, and often times these licensed games are quickly pushed out the door, unpolished, rough, boring, bland, snorefest at best, and downright broken at worst.

We have an Indiana Jones and James Bond game currently being developed by two veteran teams with I assume fairly sizeable budgets. Let's hope they turn out to be worthwhile.

A new Mad Max game to coincide with the upcoming film would have been awesome. I loved the first game, I'm guessing it didn't sell too well as they never bothered following it up.

The last one was under-appreciated. So much fun.

Wish they finished the War for Cybertron/Fall of Cybertron trilogy.

Very high demand for Sony games on PC. This is a good thing.

Would you go same day release for PC with the PS5? Or do you think 6 months would be ok? We can all agree, I would think, that 4 years is way too long.

Releasing day one means no need to buy a Playstation and Sony losing 30% of each games sold.

Its a Sony game publisher by them so it's 100% on console not 30%. If they release on Steam they Steam takes 30%

I have it on PS5 (never played it it’s in my collection) but I want to play it on PC. But I will wait for it to get below $30.

I played it on PS5 and it was fantastic. I'm sure the experience on PC will be incredible. I hope there are some significant upgrades (if possible) to an already beautiful game.

Very good pc port. Some things here and there but very excellent. I stopped playing the game back on ps4 as I got burnt out but now I'm very ready to play through the whole game this time and in glorious 1440p and unlocked framerate. I suggest turning off AA and any upscaling, game looks beautiful.

Thought Sony ruined the game? That's what many youtubers said.
