+Kinda Funny Games my eyes :)
+Kinda Funny Games but our PSN names will be :(
+Kinda Funny Games I thought I was having a stroke.
Cant wait. I'll watch it now and rewatch it again in HD.
:D
+Ricardo “Ricky” Vargas LOL
You guys have amazing chemistry. Love you, guys!
+Kay Tee
Thanks for playing my song guys!! I was a beyond listener since 2008, and I'm so happy y'all have this new PlayStation podcast!! It really means a lot to me to have my song on this show. I am super happy right now!!! :D
Greg and Colin have influence not just my video game purchases bringing me officially over to Sony, but a lot of my life. Growing up in a like-minded community Greg and Colin are the ones to make me see from another perspective and gave me the eyes I need to see past the trends and think on my own. And while I do not always agree with Colin (Greg is love Greg is life) I appreciate and love that he is not afraid to share his opinion, which inspired me to be more open to sharing mines despite the consequences.
I cant get enough of this channel
Thank you Greg, Colin, Tim, Nick for continuing your greatness with this channel.
You guys are my favorite. I love spending time with y'all every week.
+Zachary Bernal
On another note, I love this podcast, it's a great idea in my opinion. Greg and Colin indeed have much chemistry, and things will only get better!
Colin: "I think that... you might be right."
Greg: "I'm usually am."
was randomly on there channel, only to find this episode up early. such an awesome surprise!
Changing PSN names is the biggest first world problem I have ever heard and Colin and Greg blow it wayyyy out of proportion.
+Jin Guy Clearly never been on a Raid in Destiny were everyone is trying to tell TouchMyNutsPlease "TouchMyNutsPlease get me up".
+Jin Guy its just that the psn is so bad that sony needs to get the gamers trust back and name changing is the most requested feature so they need to fix that to have a hope of winning them back
A problem is a problem no matter how small it is. It's been near enough a decade and Sony still haven't added the feature, despite huge demand from the fans
+Jin Guy Obviously it's not a world ending problem. but that doesn't mean there is no room for criticism and complaints. Dismissing others' concerns as "first world" is simply showing your immaturity or fanboyism. I would not want to live in your world where nothing ever improves because no one ever complains. Let's just all be quiet and do as we are told.
Couch co-op on PS4: Helldivers, Gauntlet: Slayer Edition, Magicka 2, Divinity: Original Sin, Diablo 3... those are just ones that come to mind. All are great games.
you guys are very influential, I purchased my ps vita because of you guys talking about back in the beyond days. keep up the great work guys!
won't lie. colin absolutely influenced me into getting the vita. and for what games to buy while on deployment and play on my free time. I'm completely out of the gaming loop while deployed, but colin always has me covered. thank you so much
Great couch co-op game.

I just wanted to say thank you guys for all you do. I've always enjoyed listening to you guys
thanks for stepping it up a few notches with the creation of this show. im really enjoying it.
The offensive name that Randy was talking about was called "Auschwitz Oven" (From the forums)
Please, put some time markers on the description. I don't see those 'cause it's way too long and i can't know if there's something i care for. Really, i love you guys, but i love the "GT TIME" from gametrailers 'cause they put time markers on the description. Makes it much easier to know what will be happening.
Cheers!
Man, the opening is so good.
+Leandro Martinez Mine is after that intro! wbu?
*****
ah, so thats the site you use. thanks for the tip. get it? tip? im make funny ha ha ...
+jeffzalonka we are all very comfortable with talking about our dicks here. we are best friends and best friends openly talk about our own dicks.
jeffzalonka Jesus dude I was just making a joke christ...
You seem like a really fun person...
Leandro Martinez
thanks
All I know about the Sunset Overdrive story is that supposedly Insomniac brought up to Sony and Sony wanted to buy the franchise from them (like they do with many games they partner on). Insomniac said no and Sony didn't like that, Insomniac and Microsoft met up (have no idea who contacted who) and Insomniac showed them, Microsoft liked it and was fine with Insomniac keeping the IP.
That's supposedly what happened, and similar things have been stated by Insomniac officials.
Colin, you're really wrong about MGS. It was pretty profitable. It made $171 million day 1.
+Mc_Laggin www.vg247.com/2015/10/15/metal-gear-solid-5-made-twice-as-much-as-avengers-age-of-ultron-on-launch-day/
+Mc_Laggin That article assumes that Konami gets to keep all of the $60 from a game sale. That is incorrect. Developers if they are their own publisher (as Konami is) keep about 45% of the money at best. The rest goes to the console maker, retailers, packaging, and marketing. Honestly though, I doubt a game as big as this will get that 45%. But anyway, 5 million units = $300 million x .45 = $135 million. So that's a $55 million profit to make the next game. $25 million less than they had before.
Rhinoskinned Platypus
*I totally understand how you screwed the maths up a bit, but you're thinking about this the wrong way entirely*. By your estimates, they don't have only $55 million to make the game. That's not how profit works (*that's additional funds*). They would have the full $135 million. An easy mistake. *They made back all the money they invested into the game*. *I understand that they don't keep all the money, but it's obvious the game was profitable, to at least some degree, from day 1*.
Therefore, Colin's claim that the game is not near profitable was Kinda silly. Do you see what I'm saying now?
Greg should create summaries for games all the time. i laughed so hard at that. lovve you guys.
I was screaming "LITTLE BIG PLANET" in my head when you guys were trying to think of couch co-op games. That game is perfect for what they wanted
I really want to know what that dirty names was...
auscwhitz oven (someone from the forums posted the name)
my god
+iownalx23 i don't get it
+reesemonkey what was the name ?
I remember how Colin back on Beyond said how Freedom wars WAS a triple A game, and that people always complain that the vita doesn't get any triple a and well.. here one is, Freedom wars... but now he is saying Freedom wars isn't a triple a game. Wonder what changed his mind about that.
O MY GOD HAD BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!! PS: its my birthday :)
+Saad Mansoor Happy Birthday!!
happy birthday!
Thanks guys :)
+Saad Mansoor It's my birthday, too! *high five*
You guys make my Tuesdays. Thank god for PS I Love You XOXO.
I've been waiting to change my psn id for almost 8 years now. I hope to God that Tidus is right and the feature is announced at PSX
"That was a f**kin' awful swallow, even worse than usual". Hilarious delivery :)
The one thing I think Colin and Greg weren't taking into too much account about metal gear is the fact it was sold as two games. ground zeroes was sold to help cover the costs of metal gear at 30 dollars and moved 570000 units at least on consoles. Then there was the steam release at 20 dollars a pop. Not to mention their branding partnerships with Rey eyewear as well as puma. I should also mention the collectors edition which sold out on ps4 in NA was double the price at around 120.00 I'm sure they have already made a big profit from metal gear which is why they are already looking into what the future of the franchise will look like in the coming years.
How Greg kept a straight face when Colin talks about MGS V: The Phantom Pain at 1: 09 amazes me... Any one who played the game gets it!
You guys are absolutely right about mirror's edge and you've motivated me. I'm one of the people babbling about how I'd love another continuation of the presumed dead game. So I've officially put my money where my mouth is and preordered the game to support the company that's actually listening to the gamers. If this does well with sales there might be more games down the pipeline not just from EA that dig up games that deserve more fleshed out sequels. Personally I'd like to see sequels to Murdered Soul Suspect and Remember Me.
I love when Colin says "beyond" while he talks, Greg looks at the camera "kinda funny" haha! Beyond! =P
Sony just announced we can buy avatars for PS4. This was a feature on that survey...much like the wishlist feature.
Could more things be announced at PlayStation Experience? ;)
Most likely 👌
Wait what do you mean buy avatars like Xbox Avatars oooooorr
I don't know why people are harping on MGSV sales. It's already almost the best selling game in the entire franchise in a single month. MGS2 did 7 million total.
The song this week was incredible, I've listened to it like 15 times
Man I have never been more hyped for a game then I was for MGSV, and I still haven't stopped playing it. I think Konami shot themselves in the foot with The Phantom Pain since it had such a big build up and then they made Kojima push it out the door in an unfinished state with giant plot holes and just missing pieces. I think if Kojima could've finished his masterpiece, which it still is, it would've done far better than the 3/4 of game he got to go out on.
I think the reason Metal Gear Solid 5 didn't sell that well was due to the fact that reviews kept saying the story elements that MGS games were known for were absent from the game. Not a lot of people play Metal Gear for the stealth action game play alone, sure it's fun to sneak passed a few guards and render a few more unconscious but usually that action is split up by a 2 hour cutscene, that's what the franchise is known for. Going from mission to mission and upgrading your base and doing this and doing that, making it an open world with microtransactions etc. I think a lot of players were fatigued by the notion before they even picked up the game and so they didn't. Fallout 4 will be massive because it seems to be doing the opposite, the game looks very similar to what we've seen before but they're changing gameplay elements to hopefully turn it into a better experience overall. On top of the fact that you can sell it to your friends as Skyrim with guns.
Puppet master Shuhei Yoshida: he only knows everything
Strongly disagree about the digital only argument. I like to be able to actually own my games, so that I can sell them if I don't like them or get a refund. The only way we'd be held back, is if we went digital only. People would expect cheaper games, and would be less likely to try something new because they can't take it back. It would be a nightmare, imo.
+Benjamin Busche but you can at least on steam and if we did go digital only which will happen you will be able to refund anywhere
Can what? I certainly can't sell them. And, from what I can tell about the refund policy, it's fairly limited. So, sure, you can refund anyway, but you are also more limited about when you can refund. :P Not a good enough trade-off for me.
can you add a timeline in the description? like when is the Q&A time and when does each subject start...?
Can't wait to play Fallout 4 for the first time with some ice cold beers.
I pre-ordered Fallout 4 on PC myself. I'm a PS enthusiast and I own a PS4, X1, and PC, but Bethesda games are made for the PC, and it's evident with every game they release. I just built my PC 2 months ago for Fallout.
Really digging this show, guys. Keep up the good work!
LOVE the fucking intro. Awesome job guys as always!
This couldn't have come at a better time. Currently trying to pass a kidney stone. Thanks for getting my mind off it, guys.
Too Colins point about influencing their listeners, I was interested in Until Dawn but on the fence and had decided not to get it at all and maybe watch a Lets Play instead. But with Colin mentioning how good it ended up being, I went ahead and bought it and ended up really enjoying the game. Most of the time I trust Colins judgment unless it's just simply not my kind of game. Shovel Knight was great and I also got that because of Colin talking it up.
I really really really hope Mirror's Edge does well - there's something about the first one that made me fall in love with it, the overall aesthetic and music especially. I think it will certainly perform better than the first game; I believe it will be a modest success for EA, nothing too special, but it won't under-perform. There's my two cents anyway.
On coop games: it's not so much the coop games that are dead. The mltiplayer aspect is alive and kicking, even the couch coop thing. The mixed-core games are what's problematic. Something that would be both easy to pick up AND fun. Appealing to both hardcore and softcore (or casual) gamers. Don't Starve is interesting, but it's also VERY trial-and-error intensive, stressful.
All in all, there's not a lot aout there.
A BAKERS DOZEN! I love it.
still can't change our psn name :( :( :( :(
:(
From a developer perspective, I love when you guys go technical. Make's you human! Haha
I think I remember that the reason Insomniac chose Microsoft over Sony with Sunset Overdrive is because Sony wanted to own the Sunset IP if they made it, but Microsoft allowed Insomniac to keep the IP.
Join, or die. Now I understand. Thank you for the education guys. Great episode as always!
+Kinda Funny Games Love that you're just rubbing that game in our faces with your video thumbnail...
i dont get it.
+iownalx23 Greg changed it because it looked bad but it originally showed Fallout 4 as his recently played.
snarkystarkey oh.
Hey, since Colin was talking so much about broadening your skills in the game industry and bands, considering he's a drummer is he aware Stewart Coplin of The Police, went on to create video game music such as Spyro The Dragon, that games soundtrack was great
Sounds to me like the back end of PSN names is on multiple DB's. Probably tied together with shoestrings. They'll be trying to export all the data intact to then manipulate and add to a new DB of some form.... whilst trying to keep everyones data, leaderboards and trophies intact.
It'd also be a good idea to give each user a number as main (hidden) name - then alias with your PSN chosen name - which would mean you can then change whenever, maintaining original user number.
EA has said that Mirror's Edge sold about 2.5 Million copies. This was back when people had no clue what Mirror's Edge was, and anything about it for that matter.
I would be surprised if Catalyst sells anything less than 5 Million copies. Which, for EA standards would be one of their lower selling items, but still not something to scoff at.
I for one am stoked about it, and is one of the few games coming up this next year that I'm going to be playing day one.
Just saw the Join or Die poster on a wall in Fallout 4, seems like everytime I see something new to myself I start seeing it everywhere afterwards.....
I am with you guys and am embracing the digital purchase of games. 95% of my games are digital now, be it on PC or Console. However, I still do buy physical copies for games that have awesome collector edition content, like the pip-boy for Fallout 4. Do you think you will miss collectibles like that if we become fully digital or will collections like that always be around? P.S. I love you both very much XOXO!
when they compared how playstation handles usernames when compared to xbox, it reminded a lot of the software and hardware that i deal with at my work. the US is no longer the electronics giant that it used to be when it comes to hardware. Korea, Japan, and Taiwan blow us out of the water. This can be seen with the designs of the xbone and the ps4. the ps4 is able to pack more power into a smaller package while keeping the power supply internal. however, it's been my experience that our code and software programming still trumps that of these other markets. for the most part, our code is better organized and created with the future in mind. this can also be seen with the psn names dilemma. the base code of the Microsoft network seems both more stable, and more flexible.
Indivisible looks so interesting. Can't wait to see it finished
I fuckin love this show. Thanks for bringing it back... (from Beyond!)
Greg's interview with Ashley Johnson was awesome! It made me fall for her.
Insomniac said that they worked with Microsoft because other publishers wouldn't publish the game without owning the IP and Insomniac wanted to own their own IP
The Alias suggestion would be the easiest solution. You still log in with your original ID, your original ID is still your identifier and you just have a new alias that people see. Thats what steam has, my steam login is stupid cause I made it as a kid, but I can change my name at any moment to the public eye.
I wonder if the Mad Max game hurt the sales of MGSV. Remember, Mad Max (The Game) came out the same weekend as Fury Road, so it's likely that a lot of people were feeling the Mad Max that weekend and just never got around to Metal Gear.
What if the online retailer system crashes and the lose everything you purchased digitally? I love my physical copy! Also not everyone has super fast Internet! Games and updates are getting HUGE! Love the show!
The Witcher 3 has also sold around 6 million copies. Coincidentally, it's budget was also around 81 million dollars. CD Projekt Red seemed pretty happy about it (although they are a much smaller company than Konami). However, 360 million dollars minus 80 million (budget), minus marketing expenses (let's say 30 million), minus other expenses (let's say 10 more)... that's almost 240 million dollars in profit. It's that really a low ROI for a AAA game?
Only $30? Wow! I know they don't get everything from each unit (they have to give money to retailers, etc), but didn't think the net margin would be so low. Either way, after taking their production budget into account, marketing expenses and the such they should still be making something like 80 to 100 million perhaps
The reason for me to buy physical is its cheaper. I completely understand that games would be cheaper if they were digital only, but for now its not. If I can get a game for $30 instead of 60 on PSN, im going to. I dont have the money to pay full price, with no reselling, for every single game I want. And that doesnt mean money doesnt go to the devs for me. I buy my copies physically, new if I can, then sell it on ebay (depending on the game). Not everyone can afford to get everything digitally, which is an issue mr. sean pitts has addressed in his podcast xD
MGSV is already profitable. An article on destructoid said they took in $179 Million day one
I swear PS vita's sales would be halved if it wasn't for you guys haha Keep up the great work!
It's awesome that the podcasts are coming to Google Play. Barely any go to it for some reason.
I can't tell you how long I waited for Colin to pop the metal gear bubble.the phantom content..
I agree with Colin that games would be cheaper if they went completely digital. However, as someone who has a crappy Internet speed like many others downloading a game is a hassell and arduous process. Games aren't getting any smaller either. Also I like to resell games I know I will never play again so I can buy new releases. If there was a way to do that digitally I'm in.
Hey guys, remember Warhawk?
That game was fun.
+WAsD Videos We need Warhawk 2!
I used to run the demo 24/7 and when I went to buy the game the servers were pretty empty. Warhawk deserves a legit sequel, or remaster.
The Lara Croft games on PSN are FANTASTIC for co-op play.
2.5M Sales for Mirrors Edge and you say it is LOW ?
*Are You Freakin Kidding me ???*
that's relatively mediocre nowadays
SilentRageSlide
NO. No it's not. It's a huge number. A new IP making 2.5M, Devs would kill for those figures.
+Shubhendu Singh compared to other high-profile releases it is low.
Those are lifetime sales over years. Majority of those sales were at a discount. For an IP to be successful it would have to sell a little more than that in its opening month or two on the market.
Persona 4 Golden sold about 2 million units, IIRC. On the Vita. Mirror's Edge doing 2.5 million over 7 years? Not great.
Seems like the ps podcast has reinvigorated Collin, welcome back old Collin where the hell you been?
"Whatever happened to Triad Wars"
I have it. It's not good. Imagine Sleeping Dogs completely stripped down and simplified to the point you feel like you're playing a phone game on your computer.
Couch co-op is needed for my family. I have 3 boys that continuously play halo reach and castle crashers. I NEED ME SOME GOOD COUCH CO OP.
Hey guys it was revealed a while back that Sunset overdrive was pitched to Sony but Sony wanted to own the IP and Insomniac wanted to keep it, thus they went to Microsoft.
Lol another funny yet informative episode. Thanks fellas
I've been a Metal Gear fan for 15 years but Fallout 4 will be FUCKING HUGE THERE'S GODDAMN TRAMS IN MELBOURNE WITH FALLOUT POSTERS THIS IS HAPPENING
Colins a straight savage with that Hiroshima reference
I always imagine it's Shuhei Yoshida's voice saying "pureisuteishyon" at the end of the jingle
+WeeWeeJumbo no, its his wife
can't get over how awesome the opening titles are....following is not half bad either lol
Crazy, Collin and Greg are about about MGSV sales.
Now I don't know if it's true or not, but supposedly marketing was included in the 80 million dollar budget, which I think is true because I barely saw any marketing towards MGSV. Most marketing came from Kojima's trolling and Twitter.
- On PC it sold very well.
- Ground Zeroes sold over 2 million copies (not including digital). That's just one mission that made them a ton of money. Add that to TPP sales.
There's a reason why Konami already announced today that they're working on the next big budget MGS title and plan on throwing a lot of money at it.
Oh and Konami also announced that they're stock rises quite a bit do to mobile downloads and MGSV. MGSV has been very successful so far, and and sold extremely well for a niche title.
MGS4 sold 7 million copies in its life time and had a budget almost the same as MGSV.
Very Wrong*
Great episode! Wish we could hear the ultra offensive user name. Shuhei let us change our names!
LITTLEBIGPLANET OMG lol. Coop perfection, guys. xoxo
Who cares about changing names. I want to delete the Trophy list of games I will never play again!!!!
+youthnando91 I understand why ppl want it so bad, but damn does it have to be the topic of every fucking discussion? That's my issue. Either it WILL happen or it WON'T happen. Bottom line
You can delete trophies of games that only have 0% percent trophies.
+Madara Ōtsutsuki some trophies unlock when I just press the fucking start button and I'm fucking stuck at 1% forever. I wanna delete this shit.
+djiluvu44 That would require the deletion of trophies, which isn't a function at the moment.
+djiluvu44 Every time that happens, I face palm.
Why...
Fucking why is starting the game worthy of a trophy.
Even if PSN name changes comes to PSX, Tidux is still not an insider. He is just a dude whos guesses stuff, like all of us
If you want a co-op game download Chariot. It's a really fun co-op game on ps4. You can even high-five!
Doom looks ridiculously good. Its prolly my most anticipated first person shooter besides homefront the revolution
Just Cause 3, is going to do... "Fine"?
No.
Just Cause 3 is going to blow your mind and drag you alongside careening down a mountain while surfing on a battleship toward fields of explosive justice!
Me personally, I'm getting Black Ops III. I enjoyed it way more than the Battlefront Beta, which is disappointing since Battlefront II is my favorite PS2 game.
If you are one of the people who really want a physical copy of Gravity Rush HD. Track down a copy of the Asian Language version. It has english subtitles and comes with the physical disc and figure. Hard part is going to be tracking a copy down.
+Joshua Major It's a first party Sony title, we shouldn't have to go out of our way to import a copy of it.
And you don't if you don't care about the physical copy. The facts are though that Sony didn't think its going to sell well enough in North America for a full physical release.
"Vice City is the best GTA." Colin, I don't know about you sometimes.
