Getting Bent | Sacred Symbols, Episode 363

With Bend Studio laying off 30% of its staff as it gears up to enter a lengthy pre-production stage, it's clear their next release (should it ever materialize) will be on PlayStation 6. This is just the most recent example in a lengthening string of Sony absolutely botching its first party initiative, deploying teams on projects that make no sense, purchasing studios that have never even released a game, and complicating a service game strategy that -- at least on paper -- made a lot of sense. Where does the buck stop, exactly? And how lucky is Sony and the PlayStation brand that they've been able to coast almost entirely on external content and commercial inertia all the while? Plus: MindsEye is a complete disaster, Stellar Blade becomes PlayStation Publishing's most-played single-player PC port, Capcom and Konami reveal Resident Evil Requiem and Silent Hill Remake respectively, the Outer Worlds 2's $80 price point infuriates some, Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is somehow coming to PlayStation 4, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! When Colin talks about a hypothetical AAA Mega Man game, what exactly is he envisioning? Why did Microsoft include the PS5 logo so readily during its showcase? Will GameStop ever stop selling opened games as new? Will Dustin and Brad one day own Last Stand?

start a infection

Why wouldn’t a AAA Megaman game take inspiration from ratchet and clank and go with being a 3d platformer with heaving gun mechanics? I think making it any other genre or even making it open world would be a huge mistake

Damn Google ruining the flow of nonsense

Regarding black ops 7 and Chris comment saying that at -8 or -10 your blind what the heck you are talking about 🤣. My vision for the past 37 years always as been -10 and i am not blind. If you don’t know what you talk about Chris don’t say a think even do it was only a comparasion. You look foulish in this situation big time.
