Least surprising news I've ever seen, and please - take all the time you need. But go ahead and release the Uncharted compilation in the meantime.

Sucky news, but yeah: release an Uncharted Remaster. Pretty please. With sugar on top.

At least The Division is coming out soon-ish. Maybe.

It will probably get delayed (again), too

Fastest any scene has gone from "this is incredibly bad" to "actually this is really funny." I don't know how anyone can say the game takes itself too seriously after that. It plays it straight most of the time but it's clownishly insane.

I like all of the games in the series minus the second one and I don't think it's anywhere near the massive departure people treat it as.

It's a shame that by the time you got to play Dante you had seen everything in the game and he wasn't as fun though.

Oh, the game is really funny, but I don't think that's the intended effect - this is the same studio/writers that wanted to have Monkey kick down a person hanging from an edge to show how cool and detached he is, and I really think they did want the players to take the story seriously, otherwise they're trolling only themselves with focusing on the plot's strength, like they did before launch.

But yeah, embrace the DmC: Devil May Cry for what it is, which is the best brawler Ninja Theory have done with an insane story from people who don't know any better - if anything, the story made for a serious consumption makes it more of a farce and therefore funnier.

Also remember that Dante's canon name from DmC: Devil May Cry is actually gently caress You for some reason.

So how many of Sony's PS4 games have been delayed from their original date? Infamous was delayed from launch day to Q1 2014. Driveclub was delayed for a year. Order 1886 was delayed to Early 2015. Bloodbourne was delayed by a month. Sony Santa Monica's PS4 game was cancelled in February 2014. The Last Guardian was delayed to... ?

Pretty sure this never happened - there was no delay, it just went from 'no date' to the date it released on.

Persona 5 was originally announced for 2014, though just as a PS3 game - the PS4 port probably caused the delay to 2015.

Any idea when it's due for PS4? It was originally slated for Q1 2015 but no sign of it :-(

I always heard Q1 2015 or Spring 2015, but I check at least once a week to see if that is updated. The good news since it is a digital only title the release date can be within a month of the official announcement. My gut tells me no later than May.

I wish I could be excited about that, but every piece of information that has come out about the Division since it's E3 trailer has been incredibly disappointing. The trailer sold it as an intense gritty 3rd person shooter with open world exploration and open world dynamic PVP. All the information since then has painted it as an RPG where levels/items are more important than technical skill, and everything is instanced. The company compares it to Destiny, but in a different setting.

I guess that will still make some people excited, but it went from being one of my most anticipated games to something I probably will pass up.

I'm polar opposite. Destiny in a different setting would be awesome (for me). I'm still going to get demolished because my twitch skills with a controller are terrible, but I'm looking forward to the environment. And if I can have some fun with it without really ever having to PvP? I'm ok with that. Maybe I ought to look into the xim4 or whatever it's called.

I want this game to exist so badly that I really hope Sony throws even more money at them to get it done by holiday. It has potential to be a bit of a system-seller if it delivers on even half its promises.

Thing is it's being made by an indie studio and I don't know if Sony are throwing them enough money to straight up hire more people.

That said the most recent videos we've seen from the game make it look like a lot of it is in a playable state so I'm kinda cautiously hopeful. Uncharted 4 I'm totally mediocre on so the delay doesn't bother me. What really bothers me is that Naughty Dog said they're not going to even start on a sequel to Last of Us until UC4 is sorted out. :(

I wonder if they have something planned for E3, like unannounced games coming out this fall. Bend studio would have been working on a game for like 3 years, hell even Guerilla Games will have been two years since Killzone. Santa Monica hasn't released a full game in years, poo poo its even been two years for Polyphony Digital since GT6, though that means they might have finished the main menu for GT7.

Sony is awful about communicating things.

People who buy consoles for one single game are really stupid but I think Titanfall is the only recent game where that is something that actually happened. But plenty of people do factor exclusives into their choice of console, oddly enough, yes.

I think Street Fighter is going to sell more PS4s than No Man's Sky will.

Its both indie and kinda niche. If anything will love No Man's Sky, its the PC platform. Some people will buy it on PS4, but not that many.

Street Fighter on the other hand is more cosole-focused and much more mainstream.
