Lady Lilith Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 http://www.psu.com/a018559/Fallout-4-Borderlands-3-Persona-5-and-others-are-destined-for-PlayStation-4 Last week, in the aftermath of its PlayStation 4 reveal, Sony released a list of developers with PS4 projects currently in-the-works. The list is massive and amounts to over 100 studios across Asia, Japan, North America, and European territories. And it's no secret what some of these studios might be working on; high-profile names like Bethesda Softworks, ATLUS, and Gearbox Software are often associated with only one or two key brands. For some of these franchises, with regards to PS4's impending release, the timing couldn't be more perfect. Take Bethesda Softworks, for example. Because Bethesda Softworks is marked by Sony as a PS4 developer, I'm inclined to see its spot on the list as synonymous with Bethesda Game Studios, the company's development branch and the house that Todd Howard built. So, what games has Bethesda Game Studios developed in the last decade? The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind and its expansions. The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion and its expansions. Fallout 3 and four of its five expansions. Skyrim. I'm ignoring IHRA Professional Drag Racing 2005 and its 2006 'Sportsman Edition' (surely, fine games in their own right), but you get the point. For the entirety of Bethesda Game Studios' existence, the developer has never worked on a triple-A franchise that isn't The Elder Scrolls or Fallout. Both franchises have received immense critical acclaim. The former put a game on store shelves in 2011. The other hasn't done so since 2008's Fallout 3 (or, if you like, 2010's Obsidian-developed Fallout: New Vegas). Guess which franchise is next in line? With the same lens, we can see why ATLUS is poised to release Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 5 on PS4. We know that Persona 5 is in development, and the last game ATLUS' "Persona Team" developed was 2011's Catherine. Furthermore, nearly every Persona game has been a PlayStation exclusive - only a 1999 Windows port of the 1996 original and an Xbox 360 port of last year's Persona 4 Arena buck the trend. What about the main Shin Megami Tensei saga? Not likely - the fourth installment is coming to Nintendo 3DS later this year. But couldn't any number of Shin Megami Tensei spin-offs be targeted for PS4? Doubtful - these entries traditionally skew toward handheld Nintendo platforms. Persona 5 is in development for PlayStation 4, and you should be very, very excited. And the games just keep coming. With Aliens: Colonial Marines out of the picture and little other ownership to speak of, how could Gearbox Software not be working on Borderlands 3? FromSoftware's appearance on the listscreams Dark Souls II. What could Paradox Interactive have in store but a next-gen RTS? Could Season 2 of Telltale's incredible The Walking Dead episodic series get its due on any current-gen platform? And let's not forget Saber Interactive, who might just be constructing the sequel of sequels, a monument of machismo: Will Rock 2! I don't mean to pigeonhole teams that hold immense talent and creative potential. But when I read between the lines of Sony's PS4 developer list, I can see the future: amazing and familiar experiences are right around the corner. By taking a gander at Sony's list of PS4 developers, you can draw some conclusions of your own. By all means, share your predictions in the comments below or in our official forums. What developer are you most excited to behold on PS4? Walking Dead 2? Yes please Also can't wait what the others can put out for PS4. I was wondering when we were gonna get a Borderlands 3 too, the ending screamed "sequel". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirbz Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I don't care about the other games, but Persona 5 coming out for ps4 makes me happy.. very, very happy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daniezutton Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Borderlands 3? I can't wait to dominate some more Vault Aliens. Though I've been researching and only rumors appear, no confirmations. Even if Gearbox/2K is hiding it, I won't expect another until mid-2014. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
furbeach Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 (edited) Persona 5 and Fallout 4. I can't even...this would be wonderful. Edited March 1, 2013 by furbeach 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artemisthemp Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I personally think Persona 5 would be better on Vita, than PS4, since the gameplay is better for portable device, than a Consol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EliteVega Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I personally think Persona 5 would be better on Vita, than PS4, since the gameplay is better for portable device, than a Consol.This, and I don't have money to shell out for a PS4... -waits for Knack to be for PSvita- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Han_the_Dragon Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Nice, some good reasons to get a PS4 for me then (Persona 5 and Fallout 4 ), but then I already have enough reasons to get a PS Vita and still don't own 1 because they are to expensive for me and I'm not as much inclined to buy a portable system.

Doom Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 A new Fallout would be very much welcome! I don't want to set the world on fire I just want to start a flame in your heart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beyondthegrave07 Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I'm not buying a PS4 until the bugs are worked out and it has its first price cut or at least makes a version with a lot of GBs. However, Persona 5 would be the first game I buy. and FFXIII - Versus... (along with P5) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyouko_Sakura Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Persona 5 is the only one listed I am interested in although I thought that was supposedly being worked on for the PS3, though if they do what they did to P4 Arena to P5 I don't think I'll be able to play it...

REDSHIRT64 Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Fallout 4 is what I have been waiting years for! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chambers35 Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I'd like to see lots of Bethesda games on the PS4... as long as they work properly. As for Borderlands 3 Well the developers are ass holes for ruining Aliens: CM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parker Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I'd love to see a proper, bug-less Fallout on the PlayStation 4 and since the new system is supposed to be way easier to develop for that may be possible. I wouldn't be opposed to a Borderlands 3 either, but I'm still waiting for a Blands 2 GoTY so I'd more than likely wait to buy 3 as well. You all know what I really want though, Gran Turismo 6.

Splatter392 Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Borderlands 3 would be awesome, the Borderlands franchise is one of my favorite franchises. And even if Aliens wasn't that good, we all know that Gearbox is atleast good at making Borderlands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordfenton Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Only game I am buying from Gearbox is Borderlands series and that's normally on the PC. Now if Playstation Plus yeah that's like a funtime project for me to mess with. Gearbox I don't trust big time and was right on the money when they spent too much time on A:CM game and avoided it like the plague. Still if the next game is really tight and I loved the PC version yeah I might get the PS 4 version to roll with some PS 4 peeps. As for Bethesda to be honest I'm waiting for their games to get discounted after release due to the buggy nature of the games or even an GOTY edition where many of the bugs are out. If the PS 4 is less buggy and people are raving on it than yeah that too. So for now that's an PC edition when its' cheap to buy due to their nature of rushing it out ASAP as an norm. Still looks like more and more devs are coming out saying "I'm all in" for the PS 4. The future looks bright to me for the PS 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
