"KJ fills-in for T-42, and talks Gamescom 2014. He enjoyed it much more than E3. PL's Indie Spotlight shines brightly on Alienation and WiLD. Lara Croft skips PS4 and PC. At least for now. Hit Summer movies: TMNT and Guardians of The Galaxy are in the discussion as well. All this and more inside a must-see episode of Level-Start." -Play Legit
Former head of PlayStation WorldWide Studios Shu Yoshida has shed light on why Wild Sheep Studio and Ubisoft Paris' Wild was canceled.
A MP open world game the size of an actual continent where you can control animals or turn into them? Yeah. Same old Sony game. /s
Very shameful I hope ubisoft if they go bankrupt should get there servers and release the files online since by that time they'll be defunct
I was hyped for the game when they showed the first trailers, to bad it didnt make it.
That's the thing with Sony, they keep knocking out these 'running about' games. I thought Sony would've released Driveclub on PS5 with extra tracks and with VR. A new Motorstorm didn't surface on PS4 or even a Motorstorm collection as with Uncharted and God of War. Wild probably would've been a top game and the chances of Sony going back to it is probably never going to happen. The Getaway 3 was canned on PS3, although the first game was flawed and the sequel took a graphics downgrade and was tragic. Sony are clinically obsessed with this genre.
I loved the getaway part 1. It’s one of my favourite ps2 titles and I revisit it from time to time. Great plot, interesting characters, unique mechanics. Sure it’s a little clunky and dated to today’s standards but there’s no other game quite like it.
Former Ubisoft designer Michel Ancel has said the way his game Wild was handled was “a real scandal”.
Ehhh, the same one that was making team members cry and him calling them worthless? Don't work with Ancel
I was so disappointed that this game died.
But Ancel himself isn't entirely clean....
He has an habit of not finishing games.
Man there's quite a long line forming of canceled/dormant 3rd party projects for PlayStation that never came out...
Agent
Deep Down
Wild
Little Devil Inside
Pragmata
Silent Hills
And I know there's more!
"Teams that score the most goals also miss the most shots."
That is not how any of that works, but nice attempt at deflecting. In your mind, the Portland Trail Blazers must be an amazing team this year since they hold 3 of the top 5 spots for most shots missed in a game.

Last night the Toronto Maple Leafs took 14 shots and the NJ Devils took 38.
Toronto won 2-1 proving that the quality of shots is far more important than the quantity.

It's better to try and fail than not try at all.
That's a nice one, but if you work for a crappy company then;
It's better to try and fail than not try at all.
However, if you fail, expect a witch-hunt and then to be thrown under the bus. Oh, and leadership isn't going to do anything to try and address the root-causes of the issues, as they'll be too busy trying to tick boxes, or with the next witch-hunt, which will come along very soon.
Im sure none of you believe Sony is not about quality. Pretty sure their domination speaks for the quality of their products.
I don't know about the others but i have hope for Little Devil. It'll still come
You look at game pricing this gen, some of these games will flop. £70 for PS5 games, Sony raised the price of PS4 games, all these years on, the PS4 is still out there, PS5 was released too early and now we're soon heading for PS6. It staggers me that Sony and Microsoft can't see that gaming is heading for a crash.
I was really stoked for this. I liked that giant Snake-lady god or whatever it was. It looked like it had some great art direction.
Mark from WellPlayed writes about five game launches that were impacted by unfortunate scheduling.
Zero Dawn sold really well so I’m not sure this belongs. The second game released next to a big game again and it hurt it some I forget what it was though, oh yeah Elden Ring .
But a good game is a good game to me I don’t care when they release personally but they do have to think about it when you want to get more people to buy it.
