No. It is Sony's property, secured by trademark, under IP Protection. Thus, there won't be a different publisher and, most likely, will never been greenlit for a PC release by Sony.
To enjoy the game, you're still going to have to go through Sony. The Engine is theirs and Death Stranding is trademarked under Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE).
@ Imalwaysright: It is Trademarked, under Copyright Law, by Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE).
I've seen you in discussions about this before. If Kojima Productions owns the property, the burden of proof is on you. Otherwise, Trademarks are protected under that Law. Sony owns the rights to the name, Death Stranding, meaning nothing can be done, involving that name, without their permission or one risks being sued for Copyright Infringement.
There i...
Agreed. They very much still care for E3.
It's not just published by Sony, it is their property as well. So it is entirely up to them if it ends up on PC, which is very unlikely.
The protagonist (at least this new Lara) is very one-dimensional, unlike Drake. The older Lara was a FAR more interesting character. The only area I agree with you on is the deeper game-play. Otherwise, Uncharted beats the newest Tomb Raiders in all other features.
That said, if this new one can feel more Tomb Raider 2013, I'll be a happy guy!
@ ziggurcat - I couldn't care less for a spectacle. I want the goods. Last year's show had that - games. So while I understand that you're trying to play the Devil's Advocate, that's hardly the post to defend.
Agree 100%.
Um...plenty of people have called it that. Just read any number of the reviews.
Or, just get yourself a PS4. Problem solved.
You calling people 'morons' doesn't help you look any better. Consider, like them, that you made an error in the message. Nothing to get so defensive over.
OT: Loving the game and am very happy to see it succeed!
Well, there's obviously an agenda with this author. Telling us what Sony wants us to think of Cage. I don't ever recall Sony tell me what to think of anyone, let alone David Cage.
I won't click the article (enough wonderful people here have paraphrased its obvious nonsense), but it's just sad to see these kinds of write ups make "news" these days.
You clearly haven't played Detroit.
Over"hyped" or overrated? People often get those confused. In neither case would I agree, as the sum of God of War's parts are nicely represented by that high 94 Metascore, but I figured I'd help you with that. :)
Not just bigger, but MUCH bigger. God of War will easily clear 10 million before the holiday. A better metric would be to look at how it compares to Halo 3's first month!
LOL!
OT: Jokes aside, this is pretty freakin' impressive!
BOOM!
Only takes two seconds to check either Metacritic or OpenCritic to confirm how wrong you are.
Have you not seen the MANY other reviews on the site? :P
@ Imalwaysright:
Slight correction from me - Death Stranding is protected, by a trademark, under the law of Intellectual Property (known as Intellectual Property Protection). Both copyrights and trademarks are protected by that. Thus, Death Stranding belongs to Sony Interactive Entertainment...... 100%. That's why you'll never be able to find anything with Kojima Productions' name on it, because the property is not theirs.
