David Jaffe leaves Sony, starts EAT SLEEP PLAY with Incognito founder
Remember when David Jaffe, the developer of God of War and other highly-respected games, said that he has a big announcement to make? Well, he just blogged that he is leaving Sony to start his own company.
It will be known as EAT SLEEP PLAY and Jaffe will be joined by the founder of Incognito Scott Campbell in this endeavor. So far, the company already has a total of three game console/handheld exclusive deals with Sony.
David Jaffe mentioned that they are hoping to release their first original title some time in 2008. Waiting for that doesn’t mean though that we’ll be having some dry spells.
The company already plans on putting out a port of Twisted Metal: Head On to the PlayStation 2 this Christmas season. Jaffe gave a few points on why this PSP to PS2 port will rock your socks off:
- It has the original Head On title but it’s now running at 60fps and has resed up textures as well as some gameplay tweaks.
- It has 5-7 levels from the never released Twisted Metal Black: Part II
- It has a documentary on the history of the series.
He even said that he’s trying to get the whole thing packaged with an art book, just to further sweeten the deal. So watch out because Jaffe’s back. We wonder what kind of games the company plans to release for the PSP and PS3?
