This is going to be a great E3.

 

[Hero of Legend]

Wasn't Devil's Third gameplay on IGN only and not Treehouse, despite it being Nintendo-published?

That was right after the ending of the DE. But yeah, it could be like their exclusive extended look or something, who knows.

 

[Boke1879]

This is going to be a great E3.

yes it will

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

Wasn't Devil's Third gameplay on IGN only and not Treehouse, despite it being Nintendo-published?

Yeah, but still its starfox dude.


offtopic:
Someone said treehouse was not rated M or whatever but thats not true because Bayo was there.

 

[DAREALGUMMY]

Wasn't Devil's Third gameplay on IGN only and not Treehouse, despite it being Nintendo-published?

It was on both. I think Devil's Third was on the second day if I'm not mistaken.

 

[Hiltz]

It sounds like it this new game is coming from Yusuke Hashimoto, Bayonetta 2's Platinum Games director. He mentioned it back in December 2014 and said it was in early development. Then in early January, he mentioned PS4.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

Hashimoto has even more retweets related to Suicide Squad and Assassin's Creed so this clearly means he is directing a Suicide Squad game based on the Assassin's Creed design template EXCLUSIVE to the NINTENDO NX GAME CONSOLE (x40 times the power of PS4 and only hardcore games for hardcore gamers).

He also likes Splatoon so factor that in somewhere.

So he is a Nintendo Fan this does not really prove that the tweets are not related

he should also tweet some Xbox and Sony E3 stuff if he want a good balance, like you said these are humans not robots they should know what conclusions fans will jump to if you tweet just that.

Splatoon is Hawt Hawt Hawt! who would not retweet that?

 

[Diddy Kong]

Bayonetta 3DS?

 

[Ray Down]

It sounds like it this new game is coming from Yusuke Hashimoto, Bayonetta 2's Platinum Games director. He mentioned it back in December 2014 and said it was in early development.

But would it be in a playable state?

 

[jmizzal]

Vanquish 2 WiiU paid for by Iwata
thank you

 

[Dez_]

Yes! More Platinum please! I'm interested in whatever they have, but I'd love to see Rising 2 or Vanquish 2.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

Bayonetta 3DS?

pls no

60fps HD nothing less for PG action

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

But would it be in a playable state?

If its an existing IP the why not? People couldve already been working on it. If its a new IP then I raise eyebrows.

 

[Zalman]

Super excited to see what this is.

 

[Malus]

I can't imagine Miyamoto and platinum working on a game together lol.

 

[StreetsAhead]

Nintendo was ostensibly looking for the type of 'partner' on Star Fox that Platinum outsources to for help with their games (Hexadrive, etc). There'd be no sense in partnering with PG for this Star Fox game because, as Miyamoto said, prototyping the gameplay was already completed on the game, leaving relatively little for Platinum to bring to the table, especially given the ~18 month dev cycle from last E3 to this year's probable Fall release date.

It's not going to be Star Fox.

 

[BY2K]

Fuck it.

STANDING HEEEEERE, I REALIIIIZE

 

[Baron_Calamity]

Steam Machine exclusive: Half Life Stories Where in the World is Barney Calhoun?

 

[The Xtortionist]

Kenji Saito or bust.

 

[WonderRade]

Wonderful 102

Obligatory

 

[ShinMaruku]

Why?

If you are poor at managing expectations you should not be trying to peddle hype. It will not end well.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

It could be a VR game for that PS4 virtual boy :3

Splatoon is Hawt Hawt Hawt! who would not retweet that?

Him retweeting the conference might be related, absolutely. But to assume as such or take the tweet as evidence they are related is a confirmation bias; the assumption that Platinum might be working with Nintendo, this game is a Nintendo published game, and picking and choosing "evidence" to support that theory.

The point is he's just a dude who likes things who is tweeting things and obviously likes and works with Nintendo ergo has retweeted the direct announcement just like he retweeted a heap of cool set pictures from Suicide Squad and the announcement of Disney Star Wars Infinity. The onus shouldn't be on him to reign in his personal interests on his personal twitter because Nintendo fans can't decipher between hobbies and the hype machine.

Maybe IGN's game is a Platinum developed Nintendo exclusive that'll set the internet on fire. Or maybe Hashimoto is just a kid now, a squid now, a kid now, a squid now.

 

[140.85]

Did IGN confirm that it's not scalebound? Until they do, I'm going assume they stretching the meaning of "unannounced". ;P

 

[direct_quote]

I'd be more hype for MGR2 than Bayonetta 2. But I do wonder how Bayonetta 2 did sales wise, bu there's always the dream game of Metroid by PG.

 

[Sephzilla]

You'd have to stretch the meaning of it pretty far in order for unannounced to include something that was announced

 

[ArchedThunder]

I think he's just doing his job.

What part of his job requires him to go on twitter and brag about knowing E3 secrets?

 

[Hiltz]

But would it be in a playable state?

Most likely no.

If we look at last year's E3, PG director Kamiya eventually moved on to Scalebound for Xbox One after development was completed on The Wonderful 101 around early summer 2013. When Scalebound wa shown at E3 2014, all we got was a CG teaser trailer. When Bayonetta 2 was first announced for Wii U back in September 2012, we didn't see any gameplay footage either. However, the game was in playable form at E3 2013, but it didn't come out until over a year. Of course, the game was already being worked on before it was announced for Wii U as Platinum had been developing the game originally for Xbox 360 and PS3 until Sega stopped its funding and was officially said to be cancelled by May 2012. However, Platinum was apparently still working on its game development a bit while Sega/Platinum were asking other publishers if they wanted to make the game, so Bayonetta 2's development was further alone even though it obviously had to be put on Wii U exclusively after Nintendo picked up the publishing rights for it.

 

[Bob Coffee]

Bayo 3 wii u/nx exclusive. Followed by vanquish 2.

Spoiler

its going to be raising 2 most likely I think.

 

[AniHawk]

what if they're partnering with uncharted 4 and the gameplay is like the uncharted games for the first mission, but then it turns into vanquish for the rest of the game and everything we've seen up until now was just a clever ruse to keep hype low.

 

[jg4xchamp]

Would like the most
-New Ip

Would settle for
-A game built around the revengeance combat engine so this time we can see what Platinum could have done if they had more than a year to make that game.

-Vanquish 2 because Vanquish had so much potential, but I don't think Platinum nailed all of it. Thought it was more of a good game than a great one.

Beyond that always love Platinum Games work sans Madworld, that game stinks. Bayonetta THE GOAT

 

[DAREALGUMMY]

They talked about Scalebound in the article.

 

[Spring-Loaded]

Inkquish

 

[Gambit1977]

F-ZerU

 

[Olengie]

Yes. More games from Platinum

 

[Ezalc]

I don't get the hate for Madworld. It's not the best but it's a fun game, I thought the aesthetic and the style of it was cool. So were the many ways you could kill your opponents. I'd love to see them return to it and try to build upon it.

 

[BronsonLee]

Metal Gear Rising x Vanquish

RAIDEN VS GIDEON

 

[Morts]

Please be Rising 2.

Or something equally exciting.

 

[RayearthRob]

list of possibilities:

- original ip for mobiles
- nickelodeon tie in
- bayonetta 2 port to Sony PlayStation 4 (only possible with the POWER of PLAYSTATION (now you're playing with power))
- port of existing ip to mobiles
- microsoft forgot they already announced scalebound
- metroid
- kill la kill

Oh my god!!!! I'm dead.. Thank you sir ahahahaa

I'll concede your point, kid now, squid now

this will be a Suicide Squad IP game, a movie tie in

 

[MightyHedgehog]

Come on, Battletoads!

 

[DAREALGUMMY]

Everything about it sadly got repetitive. Wouldn't mind a sequel now that it would be on something beyond the Wii.

You mean suicide squid ip

[Capra]

Those who have faith in her see red where others only see white.
A Wii U exclusive sure to make PS4/XBONE owners cry.

BELIEVE

 

[Fracas]

Gotta be Metal Gear Rising 2.

 

[vagabondarts]

Star Fox or Metroid or a crossover

 

[EatChildren]

I'll concede your point, kid now, squid now

this will be a Suicide Squad IP game, a movie tie in

end of the day the only thing i want is another franchise exclusive to a platform that upsets people so i can ensure my ongoing lifeforce for another century

 

[abadguy]

with cel-shaded type visuals? Would be fantastic

Also Zandatsu type finishing move to disrobe enemies.

 

[AniHawk]

end of the day the only thing i want is another franchise exclusive to a platform that upsets people so i can ensure my ongoing lifeforce for another century

what if they're making jak and daxter 3
