Fairgame$ and Concord?its quite bad actually.
Besides spiderman amd Marathon, there isnt any new first party IP announced here?
Quite a number of GaaS.
Alot of CGI trailer.
And quite alot of 3rd parties/ indies (not saying they are bad, im actually very interested in a few)
It feels like it doesnt need a playstation showcase.
oh that, i guess i keep forgetting that because its GaaS lmaoFairgame$ and Concord?
My question is when is the next showcase because we know nothing about future First part releases from the major Sony studios
Alan Wake 2, Talos, Phantom Blade, FFXVI, Plucky Squire, Neva, Ghost Runner II, Dragon's Dogma II - yes they all looked amazing. They are also all third party multiplatform games. A few being "timed exclusive".People are mental. Alan Wake 2, Talos Principle 2, Spidey 2, Helldivers 2, Phantom Blade Zero and FFXVI all looked fantastic! Some of those games are worth the price of admission alone. I mean... Talos FUCKING Principle TWO? Hello?! Let alone all of the other 'smaller' games that seem to be punching well above their weight such as The Plucky Squire, Cat Quest, Sword of the Sea, Towers of Aghasba, etc. Hell, even Assassins Creed looks interesting as it seems to be returning to its roots which is a very welcome change. The MGS3 remake announcement was a nice cherry on top as well.
We are in a very good spot with third party games. It is what is holding up this generation. It clearly isn't first party games from Sony and MS (and I don't consider Switch a current gen system).As someone who grew up with MS DOS games I'm astonished by the diverse and incredible looking games that we're getting as of late. This showcase was another reminder that we're eating good and that the medium is truly maturing.

Dragons Dogma 2 was welcome, but honestly, this lacked bite. You can talk about people getting 'too hyped' but the whole point of a show like this is to generate excitement, to build a sense of momentum around the platform and give players the confidence to invest.
Vague teasers for games that have no substantial form (Concord, Marathon) games that are due to release in a few weeks (SFVI, FFXVI), games coming to other platforms (most of them); games that don't push technical boundaries, games from studios with no significant pedigree... none of these are going to generate that excitement and that was all they had to show.
They might all be good games, but a show like this needs the wow factor - it just didn't have it.
You gotta take them shots when you can. They haven't been able too in a very long time... it's a good zinger lol
Is it really a shot? Let's see them not show any multiplat gamesYou gotta take them shots when you can. They haven't been able too in a very long time... it's a good zinger lol
Nah,hype is always high. This was a bad eventAverage showcase. They showed variety which they do well with. I think people set themselves up too high and when you allow the hype to control your expectations then you have yourself to blame.
And were left with s bunch of games coming with wondering what they have up their sleeve from their talented studios.
A good position to be as they don't have to blow their load and know what to do.
If anyone wants to spin it based on their internet savvy then they are the fool.
It's definitely a shot.Is it really a shot? Let's see them not show any multiplat games
Super weird. It seems like this showcase was for their GaaS games... that weren't ready to show, so they had just CGI trailers. I hope they got another showcase, soon not a year from now, for their other stuff or I'll be disappointed.I didn't like it. CGI announcements don't do anything for me, I was expecting some surprises, and it had any, PSVR2 and indie stuff should be on state of play, not the showcase, I was expecting the new wave of firstparty games.
This showcase shouldn't have existed, they should have stayed silent and just do a Spiderman showcase in June-July.
Making people think their big showcase is coming soon in like 1-2 months would have been better than doing this and having people thinking " wtf is this"
