Triangle Squared: A Playstation Podcast

Bluepoint Games was finally announced as acquired by PlayStation, and with it we got a hint that they are working on "original content" as their next game, but does that necessarily mean New IP, or could Sony tap them to create follow-ups to beloved PlayStation games of the past? We talk this, how Twisted Metal might look in the modern gaming space, Konami's reported return to premium console development with new Castlevania & the Metal Gear Solid remake we weren't expecting, and more!

PS4 CMOS battery update, Death Stranding: Director Cut's odd save transfer to PS5 being Kojima at his most meta, what we think Rocksteady is doing with the Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League game, and our thoughts on a leak for The Last of Us DLC round out the show!

Naughty Dog teased that they were working on a stand-alone multiplayer game based on The Last of Us back when The Last of Us 2 was nearing release, but we've yet to see anything about it since despite a prime opportunity passing with the PlayStation September 2021 Showcase. Has the game been swept under the rug or put on pause to focus elsewhere, faced development issues, or is it building to try and be Sony's biggest competition in the multiplayer space they've stated interest in getting into? Can their biggest IP go toe to toe against the sea of Games as a Service titles like Apex and Call of Duty: Warzone, or would it be more of a 6 month to a year flash in the pan? We discuss out thoughts on this, THQ Nordic's 10th Anniversary stream that brought announcements like Destroy All Humans 2: Reprobed, the interesting case of the GeForce Now leak, and more!

After an absence from E3, Gamescom and plenty other larger industry events this year, we finally got a large scope showcase from Sony showing the future of the PlayStation 5's library of games.

We share our thoughts on the showcase, get the community's feedback on the issue of upgrade path's for cross-gen games, discuss Elden Ring's seemingly larger open-world & how "Watchtowers" will aid in exploration, think back on Jim Ryan's remarks that Sony is working on their competitor to Game Pass and what that might really look like should it ever come around, and explore the concerns of IP crossing over into different mediums than its origination!

Sony stepped into some controversy with Horizon: Forbidden West as pre-orders came with the revelation that Horizon didn't offer the same $10 upgrade path from PS4 to PS5 that Ghost of Tsushima and Death Stranding's Directors Cuts offered, nor the free upgrade announced back alongside Spider-Man: Miles Morales and Sackboy: A Big Adventure. Fans took to social media and finally Sony went back on their decision, and instead clarified that moving forward all cross-gen games will offer a $10 upgrade path.

Gamescom 2021 has came and went and brought with it a handful of exciting announcements like Marvel's Midnight Suns, a tactical RPG from XCOM developer Firaxis, and the obvious lack of Sony there in a meaningful way. Will Sony ever return to form at events like E3 and Gamescom, or can they adapt their State of Play's to keep their name in consumers faces in a different way? We share our thoughts on that, talk Xbox outpacing PS5 yet again with custom consoles and accessories, Saints Row coming back with a fan-base splitting tone, and every game releasing in February 2022 on this week's Triangle Squared: A PlayStation Podcast!

We often hear that games are getting more & more expensive to make, and presumably that is due to pushing photorealistic graphics in more games, and the obsession with game length as a mark of quality. Is there a point where we stop focusing on graphical fidelity, or does the balance of the scale from AAA to Indie strike the right balance? Join us on Triangle Squared: A PlayStation Podcast!
