GDC Talk 2012



I recently participated in a talk at GDC with Senior Level Designer, Chris O'Neil, about the creation of Cronos in GOW3. It was cool to see that one of our more funny moments during our talk got picked up by none other than Kotaku, a site that I visit several times a day. Thanks for coming to the talk! Follow this link to check out the article.

Can we expect some announcement in the coming mouths including E3 2012 ??

I wish I could comment on that one way or the other. Stay tuned!

...tuned since two years...nothing since two years, disappointing for the fans...
at least a countdown (new site?) would be nice, something to look forward, to have a thrill of antipacion... btw, when will your site (santamonicastudio) go live?
Thanks Bruno

@zagor I've learnt that bruno is really in a tough spot when us fans ask him questions like this, marketing decisions are executed solely at the discretion of sony and the devs have very little say in such matters and even then they are strictly prohibited to reveal anything about the official reveals before it actually happens as their livelihoods are at risk if they break an nda so plz try to understand

now with that said,can'r wait for the next,much bigger and far better god of war!bring it on!!

@zagor and to add to my previous point,it's not only the questions about their next games but also the comments about no news of their next title which puts devs in a tough spot as they can't answer them in any way,shape or form but a lot of evidence is out there if you look for it to confirm ssm are doing another gow which may be the beginning of a new trilogy,here's one:

I know that Bruno cannot comment about what they working on right now or when there will be announcement about Santa Monica next game.
I just want to say that I'm sure their next game will be awesome (as usual) and really hope it's GOW4 :). I cannot wait to find out what happened with Kratos and the GOW world after the greek gods was destroyed...Also cannot imagine what the developers will do with the GOW engine in their next game(bearing in mind that GOW3 was only their first PS3 game)
Please make announcement at E3,please :)...
By the way Journey is AMAZING game,congratulations about the help for thatgamecompany.

Thanks for sharing the link with everyone Rocky. I hope people find the presentatoin informative.
As for commenting on future projects etc..Rocky is right, my hand are tied and I like my job too much haha.

Jorney was incredible, I wish I could say I helped but many folks at Sony Santa Monica did! Congrats to the everyone on the creation of such a great game.
