| Company Overview: | Osaka, Japan-based independent video game developer. This Facebook page is a window into the world at PlatinumGames, and is home to posts from Resident Evil creator Shinji Mikami, Devil May Cry/Okami creator Hideki Kamiya, Okami producer Atsushi Inaba, and many more of the world's most talented game developers. Many of these posts come from our Japanese blog, but you'll find original content here as well. |
| Mission: | Every year, numerous games are released across a variety of genres and on various platforms, giving users the ability to suit their entertainment to their tastes. But as the games business has grown, it has also fallen into chaos. We are PlatinumGames Inc. Today, the sheer number of games on the worldwide market is reaching stratospheric levels. But these numbers hide the fact that it has become increasingly difficult to create brand new titles. It's only natural that a company's business plan revolves around creating sequels to popular series. However, we dare to challenge users by developing new and exciting original titles with a level of quality that matches our name. Platinum never tarnishes. It keeps its luster forever. It embodies our passion to create high quality games that will never disappoint. A passion we hope will garner praise and trust from our users. While Western studios now stand in the limelight, we hope to bring Japanese games back to the forefront of player's minds. PlatinumGames. Developers of games with lasting quality. -Tatsuya Minami, President and CEO |

...Actually, we’ve been at work for a while now. :) Hideki Kamiya here. Back safely from a 4 night, 6 day world release tour that took us from London to San Francisco.
Best of luck Kamiya ... But man, Screw you :P you made my waiting harder with those words lol xD
Gosh i just cannot wait to hear and see more on Bayonetta. You truly have absolutely no idea how high i set my hopes for it, i certainly am waiting and hoping for a blast! OKAMI's my favorite game, i have faith in your current and future projects. And that's why i'm really surprised to hear you saying "Bayonetta’s case is that things are going better than any game I’ve made so far". I mean, better than OKAMI?!! I must be dreaming!
Well. i'd like to add 3 things here:
First, I certainly wish it were a PS3 exclusive. You know, i am against multiplatforms due to the simple fact that developers don't make full use of the hardware. The ps3 system is a masterpiece, if people do take the time to learn it. I'm sure you've played MGS4, and i'm certain you're fully aware that it was just the beginning of one wonderful era.
Second, please get Mad World on PS3 as well!
And third, yes it might sound crazy, but please let SEGA know that we're waiting for a DC 2 !!

i love to see those good story line + super GG action combo with melee and guns in the air......omg... can't wait to see that sexy lady owning some mobs....
Not to say that you are a tease but that picture is not very big :)
Great idea Antoine, let's limit the audience for what will no doubt be an amazing game by making it exclusive for the PS3. Think about how you would feel if it was exclusive for the 360. The pendulum swings both ways. Personally, I favor the 360 to PS3, but that doesn't mean I want PS3 owners to miss out on this game. Multiplatform games are better for everyone.
On the topic of the game itself, though, it's good to know the development is going so smoothly. Hopefully we'll see some more of it at E3 next month, eh? And I hear it's the cover story for the next issue of EGM...
