What GameHED said. Someone on this board said its the most expensive game ever made. GTA+tons of Sony cash has gotten me excited about the game.

I've been the one saying that I think The Getaway will top Shenmue for development costs. The main part of the game doesn't play like GTA, and thats why I'm looking forward to The Getaway. It plays like a very realistic Winback. The plot seems to play a bigger part in The Getaway as well. should be a good game when it is FINALLY released.

Mark of Kri and Sly Cooper are really good, and I'm looking forward to Ratchet and Clank (I went out to EB today to buy it, and it's not out yet, damn it). Very impressed with Sony's output, actually.

Dude, just when did you get a PS2 again? I thought you hated it or something.

Sony has released some good games as of late, but generally speaking, even their best releases lack personality. There's an intangible, unique "something" that both Sega and Nintendo games have. You see it in games like JSRF and Celda, Pikmin and Space Channel 5. One recent exception for Sony has been Mark of Kri, which unfortunately sold poorly.

Ico is one of the greatest games of all time, that game alone makes up for any wrong doings by Sony in my opinion.

They are now known as Studio Liverpool.

Tenchu, Twisted Metal Black, Sly Cooper, Mark of Kri, Gameday on the PS1 before the moved to ps2 and forgot how to code. Sony has been steadily improving internally, and I think its fantastic. They are making games that appeal to me, where as companies like Sega and Nintendo haven't been. Pikmin, Animal Crossing, Jet Grind Radio, Toe Jam and Earl 3, these games don't appeal to me, so the developer goes down in my eyes, where as Sony has gone up with the quality releases that actually interest me. Microsoft has bought some of the coolest propertys around, so now they tend to fall into the category of first party I like.
