They could have gone full God of War with Prince of Persia Remake…
Let’s goooooo!
Development Hell strikes again.
I hope it turns out ok, I loved this game
It’s spelled as – “Pune – eh”. Please say it right
For Prince of Persia please for the love of God make it a proper new Gen remake not that PS3 thing they showed off please!
Ubisoft used to make some of my favourite games in the PS3/360 era with Rainbow 6, Ghost Recon, Splinter Cell, Assassins Creed and they’ve slowly but surely f’d up every franchise they have(apart from Assassins Creed.) Why?, Because of greed, money and following trends like battle royal instead of listening to fans perfecting what you’re good at…
Gosh. Would have liked to see how an Indian team does.
Anyways, cheers.
Still,not soon about the studio?so summer game fest studio reaction not gonna happen, probably?
Well,at least they aren't rushing prince and not rushing it out as we saw it
You think they are changing to unreal engine 5 for prince?
ubisoft is just begging ppl to buy them
Pune is pronounced "Poon-ay" — not "Poon".
Also, I wouldn't blame Ubisoft Pune for the game looking the way that it did when they first revealed it. It's like they gave Pune some chump change and asked them to work with the PS2 game' assets and what could come out from it. And what came out from it received so much backlash because fans were hoping for a next-gen PoP game/remake. Not to mention, COVID would have disrupted work at the Pune studio these past two years.
I'm glad it development on Prince of Persia got rebooted, what they had simply didn't cut it.
It's one of the games that put ubisoft on the map and inspired their now cashcow Assassin's Creed series.
A lot of those tomb raider sells were from games being sold at bargain places alot of the time
The proper pronunciation of "Pune" is "Poonay", though my people at Pune and Mumbai didn't get to see this to the end, I hope they get more and better chances like this with the right resources!
I can’t believe this is a thing they’re still pushing so hard. I honestly think this is going to only be so good to begin with, and don’t see it being worth it at this point.
I thought Tim said Tomb Raider unsuccessful because of the wrong console lol wow
I actually forgot this was a thing
From the time u published the regie interview till now i am 12 chapters into the book. Its very good
Finally a good news crew.
Horrible comment Greg saying they stepped on a rake making it Xbox only for a year when they said multiple times the game would not of been made if Xbox did not invest in it. So option were exclusive to Xbox 1 yr or no Rise of the tomb raider.
Gotta love the console exclusively double standards
Tim again seems weirdly unable to realize that Embracer group does not need bangers. That’s not their business model. They have so many studios so that they can let them all do their own thing, make small to medium sized AA (not triple A) games, and eventually one or two of those (like Valheim) will win big. Tim associating triple A with quality when we’ve seen such a glut of soulless AAA cash grab live service games is bizarre to me. Most quality these days is in the indie and medium sized games scene.
Greg's reaction to the Sonic Netflix teaser made me pause the podcast to laugh
Wild that Nintendo's like "yah, we're probably only gonna sell 20 million units of our 5 year old console, thats already sold 100+ million units, this year 😢"
That it be released at once it took a long time already a year has passed and i dont know how long int will be released
That it be released at once they owe it to all the people who have eagerly awaited it
That it be released at once they owe it to all the people who have eagerly awaited it
I wanna see Jaleel White come back as Sonic

Hmmm Weird… I'd never heard of Ubisoft Poon before?
apparently it is an Inn Dee N N Anne studio as Greg mentions LoL!
i love how every report of dawn wood dying fails to say how she was morbidly obese, and extremely unhealthy to begin with.
I love most Prince Of Persia stuff… I just remembered I never played the game based on the film… I'm pretty sure it's in my Steam library.
