Lmao they haven’t had a game since 2020, and we didn’t even see a trailer from their next/cancelled project. What a waste of resources, by shutting down after 5.5 years and no game to show for it.
Yeah...the tears in here aren't warranted tbh

Nah I think this falls on Sony upper management

A smaller scrappy studio like that, known for high quality remakes, are being incentivized to do GAAS games as part of the portfolio push

They had just got bought and likely didn't have leverage to get a large budget unless they play along and follow the wind

Most if not all of these efforts are failing. Clearly something isn't working and the entire push was a failure

All of these teams were brought on to basically throw shyt at the wall to see what sticks with no job security if it doesn't

Both Xbox and Sony being managed by dumbasses led to this. Sony went and bought up a million studios trying to go tit for tat with Xbox's buying spree under the assumption they were going to be losing a bunch of big third party IP after xbox made them exclusive. Xbox fumbled and had to close a bunch of studios and put all their shyt on Playstation. Now Sony has a bunch of redundant GAAS studios they bought to replace holes in their third party portfolio that no longer exist.:francis:

were already approaching the final phase of this generation. With nothing on the horizon I kinda understand why they would do this. Are you guys gonna be sitting around waiting for old ps3 remakes when the ps6 is out? :francis: Gaming culture is also cooked because of Gamers inability to just move the fukk on. Like, what remake were you clamoring to play? lol

Shu greenlit Concord. The GAAS push was on his watch along with Ryan.

In reality Hulst is dealing with the fallout of decisions made a decade ago before he had the job.

Herman gotta go feet first in the wood chipper, Jim Ryan needs to be pulled out of retirement and deep throat a 12 gauge.

Shu needs to be slapped in the back of the head.
