We’re into the Summer now, and while it’s not hot here in NorCal (yet), I know that’s not the case in most of the country. So here’s what you’ll be reading if decide to stay inside and cool off in front of the calming glow of the internet this week:
- Many of you have been asking about Katamari Forever – Namco Bandai answers the call with their first post on the game
- Speaking of NB, we explore the most interesting new mode in Tekken 6
- The Punisher: No Mercy gets a release date
- The behind-the-scenes look at MAG continues
- What is Shatter?
- Hustle Kings first details
Also, I’m hoping to get some of the Naughty Dogs in for a Live Chat, though that might have to wait a week or two. Actually, there are a number of groups l’d like to get in here to answer your questions live. Please, help us prioritize!
[poll id=”17″]
Note, I’d like to have *all* of these devs on at some point or another, but we’d like to hear what you think. Also, I know we didn’t have nearly every game/developer here, mostly just the targets I thought most likely (some overseas devs might be a problem based on time zones/language). That being said, if there’s someone you’d like to hear from, that’s what the comments are for. Speak up!
I would like to have a Q&A with Slant Six to find out why have they abandoned Socom: Confrontation. I was a loyal Socom Vet since S1, I use to play this franchise more than 7+ hours a day. Now with Socom: Confrontation I havent Played since Dec-08. I feel that I just got sold the headset and a unfinished product.
So please SONY, for all the socom vets don’t let this franchise die, Let us have this Q&A with Slant Six.
YO JEFF. COMMENT ON SLANT 6. FAT PRINCESS? FCOME ON. SOCOM CONFRONTATION’s COMMUNITY NEEDS FRIGGEN ANSWERS!
/6 games isnt on the list!?
Hey Jeff please answer this, Wheres is Slant Six? We need a Q&A with these developers.
I know that it’s probably impossible, but I would actually love for you guys to interview Fumito Ueda, or just someone from Team Ico.
I’m starving for Last Guardian information. Can’t wait for TGS.
Second Pick is Quantic Dream, I love God of War, and Uncharted, but I already know that they will be fantastic. I want to know more about Heavy Rain at this point.
We urgently need a word with Slant Six!!! SOCOM confrontation needs fixing… the worst part about it is the lack of communication and the broken promises!!
SLANT SIX PLEASE!!!
Give us a QA session with /6. It probably won’t be pretty, but why should it? They suck
@239, your obviously not a real socomer. and one huge game does sell a system. i bought a ps3 for the same reason as all the other hundreds of thousands of people did, SOCOM. a single game CAN sell a system. look what halo did for microsoft. that game is a system seller, everyone knows what halo is. everyone associates it with microsoft / xbox.
dont tell me slant six needs to only add more maps. how about all the missing features from the box? how about the missing actual socom feel?
if you call change releasing a game where you can only reload while not moving because if you step over a 1 inch pebble it stops your reload change then i guess im against it.
once a socomer always a socomer. i will never get rid of the addiction.
I gurantee sony, if you continue disgracing the socom franchise…IT WILL BE THE DEATH OF THE PS3.
I already have and i know many others who have sold their ps3’s because of confrontation circus freak show, and the downslide only gets steeper from here.
im awaiting news on a better confrontation or a new socom, then maybe i will come back.
until then im chillin on the ps2 playing real socoms!
I’d like to hear more from Insomniac. More about Ratchet & Clank and maybe something about Resistance’s future.
Ah I see. You wont even answer JEFF AND THATS [DELETED] SAD! You are straw manning us with silence and answering other question but ours . I mean its one thing to say oh we can put up slant six becuz we didnt ask them but its another just to ignore us. Look we want slants six game to give us what we should have got We didnt even get what was in the manual I mean cmon what game do you know that has done that ? Slant six needs to come out their damn closet.
We want a Q&A with slant six.
Ps. Im sry jeff but you leave me no choice but to be mean.
Where’s Slant Six Games? I think Slant Six Games should be one of the first for a live Q&A. The Socom community is extremely frustrated, and is so because of a lack of answers from the developer. It’s time Slant Six Games provides the answers that the Socom community is looking for.
Can we please have a Q&A with slant six games? The community is not happy with /6 and we have questions to ask. We have been waiting too long.
I would love to see a Q/A session with Slant Six. SCEA, please let us have this forum with them.
Thanks,
Unsatisfied Socom Confrontation OWNER.
@258..YOU AND THOSE OTHERS WHO SOLD THIER PS# FOR ONE GAME ARE MORONS!..lol..I LOVE SOCOM..ALTHOUGH IM NOT A SUPER FEEN i still play it 8 days a WEEK!..lol i understand your pain but not your stupidity..one GAME doesnt and shouldnt make u buy a system..hopefully YOU and those OTHERS will understand that..as for GAYLO..that game to me is lame..maybe becuz i have a LIFE..lol..so u wasted $500plus to play a game that sucks..lmao..unlike me..i still play(socom confrontation (and try to njoy it)and other HOT XCLUSIVE GAMES.ooh and by the way S:c WILL get better..and u gonna have to buy ANOTHER ps3..sucks to be you!..lol
Guess Socom is the red headed step chil that they love to ignore. Wheres sllant Six? where are the replies about this ? cmon jeff you cant ignore a fire in the woods for too long
Wow 265 comments most of them for socom confrontation and slant 6. No reply though seems oddly familiar.
It does seem oddly familiar.
But then if you stole money directly from your customers (under the false pretense of delivering a completed game) you’d probably feel ashamed of showing your face too.
What do crooks do? They run and hide.
Like cowardly little rats.
@263
Socom is Sony’s best game. Enough said.
Woaaa….this never happened, a dead lock between uncharted 2 and GOW III!! what will u do now jeff?
Still waiting on response regarding Slant Six Games. You can’t ignore the overwhelming majority of posts forever.
JEFFFFFFFF COME OUT AND PLAYEEEEE !!!!!!!
Where are you jeffie in bed with slant six? don’t forget to clean up when your finished coward.
Maybe they been wasting there time on FTB3 and totally ignoring the community up till now,but the not posted slant 6 needs to step up and finally address its community that it has willingly ignored and avoided for too long now,and they need to get up here pronto,cause scea,and alot of folks who have your product are quite upset,and really have tons of questions that only they can answer..this is utter madness 10 months no DLC or patch and nothing to say(PATHETIC)**SLANT ^ PLZ***!!
They can remove the main thread on the SOCOM.com forums asking people to comment here, but we won’t stop until SCEA starts giving a [DELETED] about us.
Sony, Jeff… we’re waiting.
SOCOM!!!!!!! Lets us vote for one with /6. The community has been really down for months and this should surely pick things up. Would help the Online Franchise greatly.
Still waiting for someone to man up to the socom /6 clusterfluck.
I want a Q&A qith Slant Six Games, please. Can you at least explain to us why they are not on that list? They only make games for the PS3.
And PSP^^^.
And the PSP. ^^^
And PSP.
Slant Six, PLEASE and THANK YOU
Naughty Dog is what I voted for. Im looking forward to th return of Jak & Daxter.
Though I would very much like to see an interview with Namco Bandai. Im curious on what they have to say about localizing “Tales of Vesperia” on the PS3 in NA. Jeff, you said you spoke with them on this matter. ( https://blog.playstation.com/2009/04/30/white-knight-chronicles-your-questions-answered/#comment-213020 ). Any luck convincing them???
Sorry for the triple post, it wasn’t updating on my cpu and it gave me an error a few times.
I aswell as the MAJORITY of socom fans request that there be a Q&A with socom developers now. We are getting fed up with sony not getting into this situation. Thanks that will be all.
Jeff, when are you going to comment on SLANT SIX. It appears that you are ignoring the community. Can you explain why please?
Slant Six please…
WE WANT SLANT SIX TO HAVE A Q&A SESSION WITH THE COMMUNITY..!
Give us Slant 6, we already know the majority of those Devs will have their games completed and they will be great, but we are still waiting for Socom 8 months later.
I along with many others would like to have some questions answered by /6. Maybe then we can get both sony and /6 on to answer sooo many questions.
“That being said, if there’s someone you’d like to hear from, that’s what the comments are for. Speak up!”
There seems to be a resounding demand for Slant Six. Any update on the possibility of it actually happening?
I’d like to see slant six games give a Q and A.
I’d like to have a word with slant six.
I would like to Slant Six and Seth Luisi who#s killing the Socom franchise since Socom III.
BTW: Thanks for banning me on the Socom.com forums.
Sony you can’t hide the truth. Give the Socom series a good devloper a bigger budget and the respect which the series deserves.
We need to have Slant6 on there. Many players and Socomers are eager to have some real questions and answers from Slant6. Sony please stop ignoring SOCOM!
Slant6 please!
I would like to talk I mean. I’m drunk sorry.
I would really like the chance to ask Slant Six Games some questions.
I say Slant Six Games also.
Don’t get me wrong, I love SOCOM: Confrontation, but I really wanna get some answers and some news on the game. (DLC, Patches, etc)
Even if you don’t do the Q&A with them.. Get us some face time here!
SLANT 6 GAMES PLEASE
THE SOCOM COMMUNITY DESERVES A Q&A
JEFF PLEASE RESPOND TO OUR REQUEST TO ADD /6 TO THE POLL
HOW CAN YOU NOT RESPOND TO THE REQUEST AS THERE IS AT LEAST 50 POST NOW.
SOMEBODY PLEASE DO SOMETHING!
Slant Six Games
