Sure, why not? When do they usually reveal games?

This thread came at the worst/best possible time

They will announce their deal with rock star for gta exclusives.

I’m hoping that kind of shite is a thing of the past.

 

[MikeM]

The answer is boobs.

In all seriousness:

… maybe.

 

[SJRB]

GHOST OF TSUSHIMA II

Astro Bot or bust

That would make me very happy.

They’re usually resigned to SOP’s, unfortunately.

Can mods add boobs as an option? Obviously for research purposes.

I'm still holding out for a Playstation Experience event before the end of the year.

I think announcing one soon would be a good idea, purely because the gaming world is currently in hype mode thanks to GTAVI.

Rock Star for sure subsidizes development cost with platform and advertising deals. It’s 100% guaranteed they have either an advertising deal or exclusive launch content.

That silly little Astro Bot game that came with the PS5 quickly and unexpectedly became the IP I care about most from Sony. I want a full PS5 (or PSVR2) game so badly now.

It’s one of the only non-Nintendo games that really felt like it had that “Nintendo magic” and detail. That shit that just makes you smile and feel like a kid again. I love that game.

 

[GHound]

I voted for the bottom option because it's the obvious outcome in lieu of the missing "I'd rather they didn't."

Bring on the third party bangers.

 

[Neolombax]

Although I voted yes, I think Sony is more likely keeping those announcements for their ps showcases, or whatever theyre called.

Agreed.

Oh.....and yeah, maybe is probably right as well

[adamsapple]

Agreed.

[ByWatterson]

Ghost of Tsushima 2 book it.

 

[MikeM]

Agreed.

Oh.....and yeah, maybe is probably right as well

Bless all you men of culture.

Nope, enjoy God of War 2018 PS5 Remake coming out in 2025 instead.

People love to troll with this stuff, but compared to some other publishers, Sony doesn't remake its games much as often.

They literally made a remake of a 2013 game last year. And a remake of another 7th gen game back in 2020.

I don't know how the year of the original game is in any way relevant to the discussion, but remind me how many remakes Nintendo has released this gen?

The problem isn't just that they make a lot of remakes, it's also that the remakes aren't that neccessary since the source content are relatively modern games which hold up just fine. Usually you make remakes of games from the NES era to the PS2 era which would benefit more from technological advancements. There is hardly anythnig to even improve on with a game like TLOU apart from slightly better graphical details and a frame rate bump. MGS3 on the other hand is an example of a justifiable remake.

You're welcome.

 

[Dazraell]

Well, technically there is a chance for that standalone God of War Ragnarok expansion that was rumored a few weeks back. Same rumor said it was supposed to be announced before year's end

As for other 1st party games, it's possible but given Sony's general silence on their games it's highly unlikely they will announce something new

 

[Three]

I don't think so. More likely to see Death Stranding 2, Wolverine, Helldivers, Concord, etc. They have already announced games they're more likely to want to show.

It's really hard to say what is and is not necessary, I mean, it seems to me a barebones remake of Link's Awakening (a Game Boy) is as much as cashgrab as it is the one of TLOU. In fact, it's pretty much the case with 90% of remakes over there, stuff like Resident Evil (2002) is the exception, not the norm.
You talk about "technological advancements", but is that enough? Do we really have to update every single old game over there?
