Playstation 5 [PS5] [Release November 12 2020]

[iroboto]

What is funny is PlayStation originals sequence which this is based on predates the new marvel sequence.

ahhhh! it's come full circle! When did the originals come out with this? It says here posting date for Dec 2, 2019. That's too recent.

One has to wonder if that video is playing only when starting the game initially or if it would also play when resuming from suspend. The implication between those 2 things is very different.

Came out in 2015 but the first movie that used it was ratchet and clank in 2016. You can see it on Netflix assuming they still have the movie up there.

So let me get this straight... They claim to nearly eliminate loading times with PS5 but then will be adding a new video at the beginning of all their new first party games that is 17 seconds in length.

Or, all games will install in 17 seconds!

ahh nice.
I dunno

According to this, Marvel started the initial portion of it in 2013 and sort of gets close to the final format in 2016 with Doctor Strange. Definitely some borrowing happening there over time.

If we really want to be pedantic, my childhood memories are filled with these news opening sequences from the 90s. Fun times.

I would absolutely hope so.

Their new brand makes sense. It's just funny to me that marketing may be stepping on other toes.

I don't want another button to push at the start of my games to skip another useless screen.

This is a stupid idea, probably coming from some non-gamer executive boss in order to promote their brand.

If they never put it into actual games, they can slightly shorten it and repurpose it for trailers and other press material.

 

[Deleted member 7537]

I predict that intro wont be used much. Is not even good lol.

Perhaps when those people hadn’t seen anything running properly on PS4. The differences became very much notable pretty darn soon!

Yes, initial reaction. But I do remember a lot of people disappointed after the initial reveal.

How is building and using your brand stupid? I understand where you coming from but for the mainstream having a brand that delivers is much more important.

An honestly all this moaning about button presses when we talking single digits probably no more than three is ridiculous.

I'm also sure they mention having shorter versions of it on the blog. Also having a splash screen can make the first initial load seem instant because of the splash screen.

I'm sort of in the middle on this. If the load times are fast and you can basically skip instantly, it's not a huge deal. At the same time if you get the sony highlight screen, and then the developer logo, and then a bunch of middleware banners (UE, speedtree, wwise etc) to click through it'll be annoying.

So when will it be trendy for a game to just fade right into the game (on launching it first time w/ no existing save) and have the logos be a part of the introductory credit sequence that happens after the prologue I forget if it was LoU that did it or...

Give me a really cinematic and theatrical immersion (just don't insert 45 minutes of trailers before-hand).

"A Sorny Ent Game"
"Developed by Bendo"
"Featuring Off-the-Rails-Engine 5"
"WHEREFORE RT THOU DAYS GONE"

If I remember correctly Killzone Shadow fall did something like that.

This isa joke but this is the best take about Sony reveal for the moment

 

[Shifty Geezer]

Ratchet and Clank feels a bit cheating to me because it wasn't created in house, but was independent. And Sackboy is old IP. In filling out the breadth of games on show to include cartoon/family/fun, Sony have had to fudge things a bit. Knack is perhaps the only current character who'd fill that slot. And Astrobot. Sackboy is more recognisable, but Astrobot is more contemporary.

Maybe Sony will change the games on show with different trailers?

They could have also showed Killzone, Wipeout, Gran Turismo, Ghost of Tukushima, or maybe even Dreams.

They own R&C IP from the start, and now the studio...seems fine to me

Whenever Sony directed and produced the game it will have this logo. So that includes some specific second parties and contracts like remasters/reboots.

"There are different, shorter animations that will exist in trailers... It will exist in advertising. It will be in any other creative assets, such as the game packaging and the game discs themselves."

""The cinematic you've seen is the one that has multiple games in it. But over time, as we introduce well established franchises, we can tailor that opening a bit to possibly show the franchise over the years, new characters that have come into play..."

""Alongside games developed by Sony's first-party studios -- such as Naughty Dog, Insomniac, Santa Monica Studio, Media Molecule and Guerrilla Games -- the PlayStation Studios brand will also apply to games made by work-for-hire developers under Sony's direction."

This isa joke

Maybe he's not joking, so far they have shown two logos. Sony might be joking with this one though

I can imagine they had to disable the comments and likes system again.
