Short Pause: "The Short Pause quartet of Frankie, Ben, Brent, and Bender tackle Sony's E3 Press Conference. Will we hear from some of Sony's first-party studios that have been quiet as of late? Will we FINALLY find out when The Last Guardian
is releasing? Join us for the PlayStation E3 Press Conference and then
stick around for our reaction video."
God of War creator David Jaffe is fascinated with the Xbox Games Showcase and has special advice for PlayStation as well.
Jaffe is spot on, PS has been a shambles recently, why they wasted the time and money on that God awful looking Concord amd $Fairgame is beyond me but thats this new Sony, remasters remakes and GAAS is their goal moving forward, meanwhile MS just delivered a stunner of a showcase with massive variety and SP greatness, something I EXPECT from Sony..
I mean, we do have to factor than MS spent 60+ BILLION dollars to be able to have a showcase like that.
We also need to factor that regardless of how great the show was, a large % of those games including COD and DOOM are coming out on PS5 day and date.
Still kind of incredible to think they are giving all those games day one on GP, if they do not increase yearly it is an incredible value.
I guess you could say he is spot on if you cant critically think for yourself.
First of all there is an audience for live service and multiplayer...everyone kept saying how Sony doesnt cater to that audience unlike MS with games like Halo and now they release multiplayer titles and everyone is bitching.
Secondly Concord looks like a typical hero shooter fps title and in that regard it doesnt look like crap and Fairgame has not been shown but if it is anything like payday I would say there is an audience for that as well. If Sony can launch another 2 succesful live service games like helldivers 2 then I can understand that push. It would also compete in a very competitive landscape but Helldivers2 managed it. We shall see with the other two.
And lastly ...yeah thats it...those are their only live service games and multiplayer focused titles they got in the works...everything else is single player oriented so nothing has changed...not to mention none of their major 1st party are really focusing on live service...once again NOTHING has changed.
As a bonus...pretty much everything people are really excited about from the showcase is releasing on playstation as well. And the games that may not release at launch will likely release later on. Perfect Dark, Fable and Avowed are the only really interesting titles they have and 2 of them have unknown release dates and have not been shown in a way where we can confidently say how they will play.
Until Sony has an actual showcase Id say it is best to mind yourself with loose speech.
Every generation PS always has the best AAA 1st,2nd & 3rd party exclusive games, in that regard I know PS has something great cooking in the kitchen for the near future but after the 2024 XB great E3 style showcase it's really time for PS to stop being so secretive & show PS owners what they are looking forward to when it comes to first-party exclusives. I've seen many disappointing XB showcases but this year for the first time in a long time XB brought it to the table. After 2018 E3 Sony just doesn't reveal their first party offerings like they used to & hopefully Sony/PS starts to listen to the feedback & bring PS owners a great showcase.
After having to prove itself for years, Xbox doubled down and pulled it off..
Yep Xbox absolutely knocked it out of the park with that stunning show, it was everything a gaming showcase should be, games games and games, well done team Xbox.
It really did. Like I came out of that with the hype for new games I haven’t felt since… well the better years of E3.
It was without a doubt one of the better showcases in years. There was plenty there that excited me. Something has been lacking in years on all platforms
It was an amazing showcase I loved everything about it. Can't wait to play some of those games.
What's going on. 4 comments & no negatives yet. Wow, what's going on with N4G.
Show was so good, it made me forget about that blue dragon rumor until the next day. Too many games to process.
Three Love Live mobile games have died in the past year despite the series’ ever-growing popularity both in Japan and worldwide, but why?
In the first 20 minutes we saw God of War, The Last Guardian, Horizon Zero Dawn, Days Gone, and Detroit...that was F'ing nuts! After that, it was nothing but game after game after game at break neck speed. Sony had THREE presenters the whole night....Layden, House, and Kojima; that's insane for a press conference. It was all games and nothing but games. I know a lot of these games don't have release dates, but I'm excited as hell nonetheless! Great show IMO
