However, Sir Daniel Fortesque is a charismatic protagonist who appears in many other games, such as Battle Royale All Stars on PlayStation and Astro playroom.

So, it's surprising that despite its popularity, MediEvil It consists of just four games, two of which are remakes of the original title. Guerrilla Cambridge, which created the series, dates back to 2017, while Other Ocean Interactive, the developer of the 2019 remake, Not working with Sony since the above mentioned game was released.What is even more certain is that the company simply has no value or worth in it.

However, as our contemporaries move to the next generation of consoles, Jak and Daxter This is on PS2 (minus some remastering).

PlayStation loves this franchise for its lovable main characters, refreshing gameplay, and Tom's twist, but it's clear that Sony and original developer Naughty Dog are interested in making more sequels.

Developed by Titan Studios, it was a unique multiplayer game that allowed players to rescue their princess and return her to her base. However, opponents could also feed her pieces of dough, making her heavier and more difficult to transport. It was a strange premise, to say the least, but it was well received and well established. Fat princess Like one of the biggest new PlayStation franchises.

Finally, you have some sequences, the standout character was the Jugaville fighter. Battle Royale All Stars on PlayStation. Not much, Fat princess It has not been posted since 2015.And a lot of people are wondering what happened. There are two explanations for this: on the one hand, Titan Studios was dissolved and Fun Bits Interactive (the developer of some of the sequels) has not been active for years. On the other hand, or the concept Fat princess It could be considered too insensitive to today's modern sensibilities, so it's clear that Sony doesn't want to release a game that could create too much controversy for them.

6 Heavenly Sword

An epic Hack & Slash adventure, created by a studio that was hijacked by the competition.

Launched in 2007, Heavenly Sword It was one of two successes on the PlayStation 3. It's a very solid hack & slash game, with great graphics that showcase the power of Sony's high-definition console, not to mention that it also features a dynamic combat system and an interesting protagonist named Nariko. It wasn't a perfect game – many critics said it was too similar to God of War -but it was a solid first entry in a franchise brimming with potential.

The final part of the story is that Ninja Theory was later acquired by Microsoft in 2018.Or it turns out that Nariko is impossible to return.

7 death zone

The industry is no longer obsessed with first-person shooters.

During the two years from 2000 until the beginning of 2010, Almost everything in the western gaming market was filled with military shooters in the first place.Mainly caused by Contact the incidentOr the sudden rise in its popularity. Sony was no exception, as it began publishing many strong exclusive shows that belong to this type of fashion, and death zone I believe one of the two things happened.

Developed by Guerrilla Games, it was a high-quality FPS with a dark sci-fi feel, solid shooting gameplay, and a prominent online component. Despite these positive attributes, Dead Zone 3 You have a very mixed reception and Killzone shadow remains (which was the PlayStation 4 launch title) received very negative reviews. Embora is certainly doomed to become a franchise, and Guerrilla Games has managed to become popular. Horizon A privilege, it is more creative and refreshing than death zoneAs a result, it appears that the study will continue to focus on new intellectual property rather than the future.

As expected from a respected studio like Insomniac, these FPS formats were critically acclaimed, with solid gameplay and a relatively popular multiplayer mode, although they are more serious and dark than the games we usually develop.

Mass, after its launch Resistance 3Insomniac has explicitly stated that they have no interest in making games like this. Today, they are busy working on more colorful and creative experiences.like Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart Oh Homem-Marvel's AranhaOr it's more convenient for them.
