        Reckon it'll be a "Switch 2" game now.

        Thread back on track attempt:

        Do you guys reckon we will still get a mid-gen refresh console amidst all this industry flux i.e. PS5 Pro?

          From the speculation, it seems likely even if it is a SKU that will offer little

            Sony studio Firesprite has been shedding talent amidst accusations of toxic culture, staff say | Eurogamer.net

            Ouch...

              So firesprite who where formed out of the ashes of Sony Liverpool, are now suffering at the hands of their new paymasters, it's like lightning striking twice, dev team gutted, heads removed and the studio is in a death spiral, sounds like a great bit of spending from Sony.

              As someone that's gone through many management reshuffles what I've found is theirs always a level of resistance to change, and if you don't get on board with that change you tend to get the boot. I've seen it so many times, new bosses come in and try and put their stamp on things and instigate changes, and you get the "we don't do it that way brigade" pushing back. All the studios founders have been ousted which tells me that they were the ones that were probably pushing back the most and that's why they were removed.

              Hearing lines like "Staff complaining about being put on projects they had no interest in" shows that they don't understand how being owned by others works they call the shots, and they decide what's commercially viable for you to work on as it's them that's putting the funds up for development. It all seems to of been pretty futile too as it seems the Twisted metal Live service game they were working on has been canned.

                  Yeah I've experienced the odd management re-structure myself... in fact I've just avoided redundancy 3 weeks ago (even though I wanted it, but that's another story!).

                  I guess the issue here besides the sexual discrimination / ageism angle (which is just plain wrong) is a potential disconnect between new management and the delivery teams themselves. It's that whole divide between the business and creative side of the coin. Really that is something any company in the business of delivering an entertainment product has to contend with and it seems Firesprite have done it pretty badly all things considered.

                  We are of course only getting the opinions from the sides of the creatives on the teams but both sides have to be fully aligned in this to be successful / profitable.

                    Who'd have thunk PS Plus stream gaming has been better than xCloud gaming all along (joke)

                    I was surprised to see there's currently 851 games on PS Plus compared to 402 on Microsoft's service.

                      Doesn't surprise me at all. Xbox gutted the whole infrastructure during the FTC trial. It's obviously still in beta but it now reverts to Series S performance overall.

                            Loved this game. I hope a sequel is in the works.

                                Great news, though this will be utterly wasted on pc.
