Has anyone figured this out? I started getting this last week when I bought Resogun (it happens every time I play, usually in the first 3-5 mins), and now my PS4 will freeze or straight up turn itself off when playing Infamous or Resogun. The last news from Sony was from January and completely useless (install latest update, initialize ps4, blah blah blah). And now we're 6-7 months later and...nothing? What the fuck are they doing?

I still have a while before my warranty is up, so i guess I could return it for another, but they haven't even said if it's hardware related or firmware related.

I had some free time today so I figured I might be able to help you out. I made some tweaks to the truck to clean it up and stuff, and changed the typography. I hope that's okay. If you need a vector file or a high res file just pm an email to send it to.

Fucking stoked for this. I love all Nolan's movies (well Dark Knight Rises is probably filed under "like") and the stuff he's done that isn't action focused has been his best work in my opinion.

Be careful with serif fonts as well they can be very dissonant with logos. Try a sans serif and stick to one color. I would try to simplify the image and keep the reels separate in case you ever want to use the logo in a text free situation. Reels are a good idea to work with.

I just want to point out that a serif typeface can work totally fine with a logo when used properly. Sans-serifs are more common for logo design to be sure, but they don't always capture the "classic" look quite the way a serif face can.

Anyway, I think this has a few big issues that should be fixed, but you've got the concept down which is the first step towards success!

- Avoid putting type on top of the graphic. Besides making it hard to read normally, the logo simply won't work in black & white, and forget about stuff like shirts or embroidery. I think a simple layout with text under the graphic is what you're looking for. Look at other production company logos (I'm thinking of the Weinstein one specifically but there's loads more).

- There's some weird jaggies on those reels. Not sure if that's just the upload or what, but I would open up Illustrator (if you don't have it maybe find someone who does) and redraw those as nice clean vectors. Reels are just circles so it shouldn't be too hard. Forget about the shading and drop shadows for now.

- The Lord of the Rings bevel *can* work, but it needs to be done well. For now I'd just stick with plain type

- This is just a suggestion, but I would avoid using small caps. Again, they can work, but for something like this I think you just want all caps.

That's all I got for now. Good luck!

@cbk486: Yeah he wasn't going nuts or anything, but at the time this was so bizarre out seemed out of context given his audience. Watching it on the stream, chat was having a pretty good laugh.

After catching this yesterday I had to track it down and make sure it was here for posterity.

For those who didn't see it live, the panel was a presentation on Square's upcoming game, Murdered: Soul Suspect. The presentation from the devs was nothing special, mostly concept art and lots of talk about the "ghost world" and their philosophy behind the game. If anything it was a bit boring.

That all changed at the 39:00 minute mark. Someone had the wonderful idea of getting a retied FBI agent to be part of the panel and talk about his twenty odd years experience as an FBI profiler. Sure it might be related to the game somewhat, but things get pretty weird pretty quickly. Pretty soon he's making people count letters, talking about "sexual rapists," and explicating that a girl in Florida was not killed by a life-form from mars. Oh, and he's also on a TV show called "Killer Instinct."

Loading Video...

The Q&A is also worth sticking around for. All in all, a truly bizarre viewing experience.

I watched over half of the first season and loved it, but stopped for some reason. The set design and costumes and all that looked incredible, and I liked learning a bit about the different morals and worldview of the characters. I don't know how accurate it is to real vikings (I know it's the history channel but they fucking air storage wars and call it history) but I really liked the contrasting cultures of the english and vikings.

I voted yes, because I definitely would love to see video reviews. However I completely understand why they don't do them and actually prefer they don't given the demanding nature of working on such a small team.
