Message: [QUOTE="Deathwing, post: 554595, member: 948489"] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.gamesradar.com/games/former-playstation-boss-thinks-weve-lost-a-lot-of-the-variety-in-games-and-we-can-thank-the-rising-cost-of-new-titles-for-that-we-had-so-many-crazy-games-on-ps1/[/URL] Not sure if this is allowed like this, sorry in advance. This guy Shawn Layden was in charge of PS and one who steered the boat away in this direction of safe investments, but it's funny because that's precisely how I feel about PS nowadays. The charm of the PS1 and PS2 is long gone, their experimental and unique games replaced by "yet another over the shoulder third person cinematic game". The budgets for modern titles are out of this world, so it doesn't surprise me that they want to play it safe. The question is, would people be interested if Sony or any other company kept an experimental studio with a handful of people who could develop titles with PS1 budgets? Would you be happy with last gen or even before type of quality production values? I suppose tools evolved enough to streamline this work. Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
