stev: Jan 22, 2013; Please be excited.

I hope we get some more detail in the Famitsu reveal (if that's still happening). What's there so far screams "2022 maybe".

I'm definitely on board though.

Hello, everyone. PlatinumGames chief game designer Hideki Kamiya here.

It’s my honor today, at long last, to announce an all-new, all-original project from PlatinumGames. In the fourteen years since we founded this company, we’ve worked towards the dream of making and releasing a game based on a Platinum intellectual property. Now, we’re finally stepping up to that starting line.

What makes this new title different from what we’ve done before? Let me explain a bit, because I’m sure you’ll agree that this is a giant step for PlatinumGames!

We’ve made a wide variety of games throughout our history, sometimes based on existing properties, like NieR:Automata; sometimes wholly original stories, like Bayonetta and ASTRAL CHAIN. Our work has found a core of passionate fans who trust us to deliver high-quality action games.

But PlatinumGames has thus far only been a developer. That means we make the games, and that’s it. All of our titles up until how have been made under contracts, with cooperation and funding from the publishers who distribute them.

Of course, everyone at Platinum and I are extremely grateful for the relationship that we’ve made with all of you through the games we’ve made so far. But ultimately, all of those games belong to publishers. Any and all decisions about how those games are promoted, how their content is used, and so on, are entirely up to the publisher.

As a creator, it’s hard not to think of my games as my children. After all, it takes a lot of hard work to raise them up, and a lot of love, too. However, once they’re done, any choices about them are entirely out of my hands. So, for example, no matter how many times people tell me, “You should make a sequel to this game,” or, “I’d love to see it on that console,” there’s nothing I can do about it.

Which brings us to Project G.G. (that’s just a working title, by the way). Project G.G. is different. Unlike any of the games we’ve made so far, it’s going to be a 100% PlatinumGames title. For everything from its setting and characters, to its game design and story, to how it’s promoted – PlatinumGames is in full control.

Of course, that has its downsides, too. We’ll be taking on new risks that we’ve never had to assume before as a contracted developer. Having full control over the Project G.G. IP gives us a ton of freedom, but also a ton of responsibility. Still, I think we can harness that sense of responsibility and turn it into motivation to make Project G.G. the best game it can be.

Like I said before, with Project G.G., we’re stepping up to a starting line. The finish line is still a long way away. But I know I’m looking forward to running the race! I hope you’ll cheer us on.

And if you’d like to join us at Platinum as we start out on this new endeavor, I sincerely hope you’ll take a look at our jobs page and see if there’s a position that’s right for you.

On behalf of the Project G.G. team and all of PlatinumGames, thank you for your support

Should have bought it on the one, true platform for movies back in the mid-aughts.

That being UMD.

(I remember you could get a bunch of those UMD movies for like, super cheap fourteen years ago when they stopped putting movies and shows on the format.)

I'll be honest that it seems to be weirdly less available than most things, wonder if it's a rights thing (I know Sony put out the DVD back when the movie was new), with the only reliable option I can find being the Blu-ray which costs more than the entire rest of the series does on Blu-ray.

My local library has the DVD on-hand, at least.

I never knew he put that code into Gradius because he himself found it too hard.

To turn things back to Coronavirus goodness, I do wonder if it'll disrupt the release of the next gen consoles and push them into next year. It looks like there's a not-insignificant chance of that happening.

More time stuck with these inferior consoles whose games are only 4K60.

Where things would get extremely weird (I think we'd have to be almost at Mad Max levels for this, though) is if they start not being able to produce physical disc copies of games, but they are still released as planned digital-only.

Oh god this was somehow one of my first games on my SNES when I was growing up

Think it was a poor FuncoLand decision or something

Distinctly remember the "Blech!" noise UMan makes when you complete a stage and he flies away, as if he is just disgusted with this crappy game
