Kojima’s Physint Dropped By PlayStation, Rescued By Xbox

Kojima’s Physint Dropped By PlayStation, Rescued By Xbox https://ift.tt/vKmSW4T Sony has revealed today that it will no longer be working with Kojima Productions on stealth action game Physint , while Kojima announced that Xbox has stepped up to rescue the project. The change in publishers means both of Kojima's upcoming projects are now being made in partnership with Xbox, a departure from his long history of developing games for the PlayStation.

Before the trio pitched Cobra Kai to be made, they were actually rather successful in the world of raunchy R-rated films. Hurwitz and Schlossberg were the writers behind the Harold & Kumar films, before they teamed with Heald to write both Hot Tub Time Machine films. So, if anything, Obliterated is their way of going home again, after several years writing for teenage characters. Still, the change was a shock to the system, at first.

"It was like going off of an extreme diet and just eating like all the fast food and comfort food that you would want, because we come from that R-rated world," Schlossberg explained. "We love comedy that pushes the envelope. Working on Cobra Kai, that tone doesn't really play into the Karate Kid universe. So we don't use that part of our brains when we write Cobra Kai."
