Hot off the back of PixelOpus closure, another PlayStation game may be having issues as partner studio Deviation is hit with layoffs, signaling potential issues with their PS5 AAA multi-player game, begging the question: Is Deviation's PS5 project dead? We share our thoughts on this, look at Blizzard announcing Overwatch 2 will not longer get it's single player campaign that was promised alongside the reveal of the game, get teased for a reboot to long time fighting classic Mortal Kombat, talk about "milking" IP and how the negative or positive connotations often come with the quality of the products that come from that, ask who or what is PlayStation's "mascot" in the modern era, look at what the Community want to see from the PlayStation Showcase and more!

PS5 Showcase, "Varied" Live-Service, & Checking in on PlayStation's Studios | Triangle Squared Ep. 305
This week saw the game industry shake up with fallout from Redfall's weak reception, PlayStation shuttering a studio amidst a time of acquistions, and seeming confirmation of the long awaited return of a PlayStation Showcase.

Not much big movements in the gaming industry this week, but SEGA does join in on the acquisition fun by acquiring Rovio, Final Fantasy XVI enjoys a new burst of hype following the recent State of Play, & Spider-Man leaves PS+ making users wonder if this is something we can expect from PlayStation first party games moving forward or something else. We share our thoughts on these, while looking at Media Molecule hitting the news again with the announcement that their co-founder is leaving the company, Suicide Squad's delay is finally confirmed by WB and Rocksteady as it moves into 2024, Remedy assure that Alan Wake 2 will be a 2023 title alongside revealing their new logo and get a feel on what the community would do with a blank check to develop any video game they wanted!

Media Molecule Chase New Dream, Remote Play Handheld, & "Call of Duty Killer"? | Triangle Squared 302
In the still slow news time we find ourselves in, Media Molecule stirs up emotions by announcing that Dreams has reached end of support as they move on to a new project, Tom Henderson breaks silence on his "Sony Hardware" rumors entailing a handheld that is Remote Play focused, a key Halo figure leaves Microsoft leaving Chris to wonder the value of Sony approaching him should the need arise to re-visit the "Halo Killer" era by looking to create a "Call of Duty Killer" should the ABK deal go through. We share our thoughts on all this, Resident Evil 4's addition of microtransactions and whether we think it is a shady practice to do so AFTER the review period, State of Play coming with even more Final Fantasy 16 footage, if PSVR2 is actually "flopping" or if games media are being inflammatory, and detail our rediculous idea for a Triangle Squared game involving interdimensional travel, death by sexy, and a plot to foil the ongoing trophy competition in a bid to rule the world in the wildest Velvet's Corner yet.

Rumored Sony Hardware, Sonic & E3 Double Homicide, & Konami's Return to AAA Development | Triangle Squared Ep. 301
Tom Henderson teases new Sony Hardware that is supposed to hit before the rumored PS5 Pro, could this be a return to handheld and if so, what shape might that take? We share our thoughts on this, E3's attempt to return proving the end of the once invincible "biggest week in gaming", SEGA having some fun with the Sonic The Hedgehog IP by killing Sonic, and Konami investing to dive back deep into the world of AAA games development they abandoned nearly a decade ago, while discussing rising development costs and how that translates to infalted development schedules, how those development schedules might be impacting the "showcase" style showings we'd like to see at least once a year from publishers, ARK 2 delaying into next year, check in on the Metacritic Draft standings so far, and more!

Spider Man 2 Hits September, EA Delisting Games, & Sony Diving into NFT? | Triangle Squared Ep. 299
Months after Insomniac confirmed that Marvel's Spider-Man 2 will still be releasing this year, Tony Todd might have let the release date slip on Twitter! In an interaction with a fan, he revealed that September seems to be the release date with marketing starting to push in August. We share our thoughts on this, when to expect The Last of Us HBO to return with Season 2, discuss companies delisting games they own the rights to and how it impacts game preservation, check in on what you all think about games taking the "Final Fantasy" anthology approach and how media has become so Sequel oriented, how AI may or may not help artists and writers moving forward in gaming, answer questions about PS5 Pro and our favorite foods, and answer the most important question of them all....

State of Play hit this week and brought with it updates on mostly known games, with Baldur's Gate 3 controversy due to it's unplanned exclusivity on PS5 due to Series S development issues, Resident 4 getting even more gameplay ahead of it's upcoming release, and finally a look at Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League will be offering gamers when it hits this May. We share our thoughts on all this, as well as get the community's input on how they see subscription services changing purchasing habits, EA hinting that there COULD be further remakes for Dead Space 2 and 3 with maybe a new game altogether, The Outer Worlds getting to grace PlayStation one last time with the next-gen version that is releasing soon, Elden Ring's first full fledged DLC "Shadow of the Erdtree" getting announced, why more games don't follow Mass Effect's lead in modern gaming, and what artists discography we'd use to fuel a game's score and story if we were given the keys to the kingdom!

Forbidden West Hits PS Plus, State of Play Returns & No Hogwarts DLC | Triangle Squared Ep. 295
Extra/Premium tier's monthly catalog additions finally bring a newer 1st party game to the service with Horizon: Forbidden West hitting PS Plus, potentially giving us an indication of how PlayStation intends to use 1st party titles with it's subscription service in contrast to Xbox's Game Pass.

PS Plus Switch-up, Alan Wake 2, & Live Service Games in Trouble? | Triangle Squared Ep. 294
Live service (or Games as a Service) titles shook the gaming community in a bit of a recent pile up of games ending support for their titles, with games like Marvel's Avengers, Knock Out City, Rumbleverse, and many more announcing end of service or outright being cancelled before hitting the digital storefronts. Is this indicative of a problem with the type of game, and should PlayStation, who have made it known they have a number of games as a service titles in development, be worried about this development? We share our thoughts on this, how AAA gaming could use a shake-up of more Dead Space and Resident Evil 8 length titles, Alan Wake 2 getting an update on development and how important Remedy sees the IP internally, PS Plus switching things up by removing the PS Plus Collection benefit that PS5 has offered since launch, how we'd rate the PS5, look back at some listener push-back on a recent topic, and get a glimpse into YOUR video game character power couples!

Horizon Multiplayer Leak, PSVR2 Demand, & The Death of E3 | Triangle Squared Ep. 293
This week saw a Horizon multiplayer leak that showed footage and concept art for the title in alpha, talk Bloomberg's potentially false reporting of PSVR2 forecasts being lowered, if PSVR2 has enough appeal out of the gate for a high demand, as well as the death of E3 as we knew it with the big 3 bowing out of the yearly trade show this time. We share our thoughts on all this, as well as Naughty Dog confirming yet again that they have moved on from Uncharted and could likely do the same with The Last of Us soon, what Uncharted from a new developer might look like and if it'll face the same challenges that 343 have faced with Halo, whether Horizon as an IP is being overly "milked" with the litany of projects that are rumored/leaked, set up shop with the first ever Triangle Squared Advice Column for wayward gamers & more!

Insomniac's Marvel Spree, Avengers' End, & Game of the Year 2022 | Triangle Squared Ep. 292
2023 is bringing with it new life to Marvel's presence in games, as well as seeing the end of another as Insomniac's Marvel spree continues with Spider-Man 2 being once again reassured to be hitting this year, while on the flip side Crystal Dynamics' Marvel's Avengers game is officially hitting it's end of life stage with one final balancing update before support ends on the long frought game. We share our thoughts on all this, PlayStation Productions getting the synergy they likely hoped for with The Last of Us Part 1 and Remastered's sales skyrocketing after the HBO series' incredible reception, how Sony may push their interconnected media franchises forward with Twisted Metal, God of War, Horizon and more shows and movies on the way, and Forspoken's rocky reception!

This week brought with it talk of Ubisoft's troubles, cancelling 3 games and delaying Skull & Bones yet again, Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League getting a possible leak hinting at a Live service or Games as a Service style setup, and a leaker returns to tease 3rd party PlayStation deals that line up nicely with the evergreen MGS Remake rumors that have circulated around! We talk all this, get a grasp on what lessons the community feel they've learned from games, pitch a sitcom spin on The Last of Us featuring a Clicker living with a roommate (hilarity ensues), if Outriders dev People Can Fly might be behind the rumored PlayStation shooter, and much more!

GT7 Hits PSVR2, PlayStation Accessibility Controller, Leaked PS5 Shooter & More! | Triangle Squared Ep. 290
Sony hit CES with a littany of updates on PlayStation, from 30 million PS5s sold, to Gran Turismo 7 getting a free PSVR2 update, to even announcing their foray into the hardware side of accessbility with Project Leonardo: PlayStation's take on a highly customizable accessibility controller. We share our thoughts on all this, Neil Druckmann talking about Naughty Dog announcing games closer to when they are ready to avoid public delays and the scrutiny/pressure that comes with them, a potentially leaked PS5 exclusive shooter being dubbed by those who have seen it as "Gears of Effect", when Sony might finally give us a PlayStation showcase, and the pros and cons of developers sticking to a game and/or genre and developers we'd like to see try their hand at something different.

Naughty Dog's Next Game, Game Pass Not Competition, & More! | Triangle Squared: A PlayStation Podcast Ep. 289
Neil Druckmann recently stirred the pot when outlets covered that he said Naughty Dog's next game will be "structured more like a TV show", going as far as saying that he'd assembled a writers room for the project, before later clarifying that the quote was taken out of context and instead that he meant the game would just be made in a more collaborative way, but it spurred the question. How could writing with a writers room change the Naughty Dog games that so many people love for the better or worse? We share our thoughts on this, insiders claiming that Jim Ryan doesn't view Game Pass as competition, PlayStation and Xbox seeming to try and lean into regulators ignorance to the overall gaming business with their remarks against each other in the ongoing regulators fight, the DualSense Edge being a great extension of the DualSense saddled with slightly worse battery life, and how gamers need to be careful to not throw stones in glass houses when discussing their opinions.

The Callisto Protocol: Scratching the Surface of Potential | Spoiler Chats
Building off the backs of their creators previous work, Striking Distance Studios set out to craft a new survival horror title from the mind behind Dead Space, in the form of The Callisto Protocol. Met with excitement at it's unveiling, and with a sense of hype that carried through to launch, it soon found itself to be quite the divisive game amongst fans and critics alike. We gather in this episode of Spoiler Chats to hopefully dig deeper and discuss what worked, what didn't work, and what we hope for in a sequel from presentation, gameplay, and story for the studios first game, that's scratching the surface of potential. Join us and share your thoughts on The Callisto Protocol! New episodes of our weekly podcast, Triangle Squared: A PlayStation Podcast, drop every Monday at 12PM CST/10AM PST!
