With respect you must be. There is no 343 making a new IP without Halo disappearing for at least a decade maybe two.

Dont believe me? Wheres Uncharted, Killzone, Infamous? They’re gone. Done.

Infinite is already a massive success from a critical and numbers metric. Splitscreen co ops presence doesnt change that. Microsoft just loves the IP.

What risk? The only financial element is 343s collective salaries. Gamepass pays for that. And gamepass is going places.

and in that place of Uncharted we have Last of Us Part 2 and Part 1 + the upcoming multiplayer game and potentially a new IP

in the place of Infamous we have Ghost of Tsushima

In the place of Killzone we have Horizon Zero Dawn and Forbidden west.

I’d say that was a really good trade of for spending a decade off the IPs you listed.

Ok sorry the quote is wrong

Matt says everytime he sees Fable he wants to show it off but Playground wants to wait until its ready, also he says the game matches the attention to detail that the Forza games have.

Yeah that sounds more likely :phil_lmao:

Hopefully we get to see it on E3 next year

Probably will be more successful that Minecraft Dungeons.

Baaaaaaadly want to see this! But if it’s not ready for PG, then it is what it is. Hopefully next E3 and then with a release early to mid 2024.

(or TGA after all, because why not…Hellblade 2 got it too. We’ll see.)

Too late, Rand and Jez talked about your post haha.

Is there an interview or something

Yes and no. If they were to surprise us all with gameplay at TGA or next E3 but it’s still like a year off, I won’t complain. Again, we had Hellblade 2 gameplay and that was super early and the element of surprise was huge. I don’t count haters on other sites, idgaf about them. But I agree with how awesome it is to see them doing it the FH way too.

They “get” Fable. It’s practically impossible to really get anything from that, except that it sounds like they might stay real faithful to the IP. Keep the stuff that works and throw the stuff that doesn’t work in the trash can please.

They said “they saw something on xboxera saying MS didn’t want to show off Fable” on the show.

A group of more than 100 people from Crystal Dynamics is developping Perfect Dark.

“Even though the new was taken as a negative, having a AAA dev such a CD is always a positive”.

So much for only 5 guys working at The Initiative and them not being able to hire anybody. :sunglasses:

Its ok to feel disappointed about Halo Infinites state. Nothing you can do about it. Play Psychonauts 2, its real good, funny and not very frustrating. You can have a good time with it.

If they are working on a new IP Last of Us would be buried too. And the multiplayer game is just the delayed element from part 2 they never finished. Halo launched with multiplayer. So you would be advocating less complete games.

The new ones sold better, the old ones reviewed higher.

Halo Combat Evolved reviewed higher. Halo Infinite sold better. So would you agree, Ghost and Horizon need to be cancelled for new IP?
