The PlayStation lineup at gamescom 2016

Sony Reveals what's in store for Gamescom.

[BLow]

I remember Sony not having a press conference=they weren't going to be there at all.....yyyyeah about that....

[MartinB105]

This line-up is a list of games that will be on the show floor. They're not having a press conference, but they will be there on the show floor. Exactly the same situation as last year (I know because I was there).

[Lsbb]

I was there the year the ps4 launched. Good times

[freshslicepizza]

"Important to note: No PlayStation Vita. RIP."

the good news is the ps4 is getting those games instead like gravity rush 2.

[indysurfn]

Well, Sony I have been waiting for a year since your tease, ALL I can say is two things:

We want Legend of black Lagoon! We want Legend of black Lagoon! We want Legend of black Lagoon!
We want Arc the Lad! We want Arc the Lad! We want Arc the Lad!

[mark_parch]

they aren't having a press conferene lol

[ziggurcat]

neither will MS:

http://ca.ign.com/articles/...

[BLow]

I guess all of you missed my point. Remember there were articles on here saying since they weren't having a press conference that they were skipping the show entirely....well nvm....I guess I forgot to put the sarcasm sign at the end...0_o

[S2Killinit]

I got you. And yes.

[PhoenixUp]

Sony will have a presence at as many conventions as possible

[TylerFischer]

I think we are going to see a similar approach to PGW as Gamescom soon though. I think press conferences will be limited to PSX, E3, and TGS.

[jb227]

That may be a safe bet...last year Sony spread itself a bit too thin, they had great announcements at every show, but if they had cut out PGW & instead moved those pieces over to PSX they would've dodged some of the disappointed fans expecting something like the year before in terms of reveals. E3 is for your summer bombshell announcements, TGS for the Eastern leaning fare, & PSX for the big holiday blowouts. That's a pace I believe Sony would have no problem keeping up for sure.

[GreenUp]

Where is SOCOM?!

[PhoenixUp]

Where is Twisted Metal, their longest running franchise

[KwietStorm_BLM]

Who's even gonna make it? David Jaffe is doing his own thing and Incognito doesn't exist. If they just got some stupid to do it, probably wouldn't even be worth it.

[5p4c3d]

Make Playstation Great Again?

[mark_parch]

twisted metal world tour is still one of my favourite games of all time

[TheColbertinator]

Colony Wars?

G-Police?

Omega Boost?

Syphon Filter?

Warhawk?

Patapon?

Ape Escape?

Jak and Daxter?

Dark Cloud?

Sony has so many great IPs yet the fools that run it rather get lousy indies instead.

[S2Killinit]

Ummmm oki

[PizzaSteve]

I do agree I like to see more classic games like those but some of them wasn't big sellers and maybe Sony don't want to waste money on ip's that's not profitable. There have been great indie games on PS4.

[_-EDMIX-_]

I think you need to be a bit realistic and what you're asking for , if those series were financially successful they would still exist today.

[Strikepackage Bravo]

@ Colbert BINGO! at last someone gets it, the crap they are releasing is the equivalent to Xbox Live Arcade games, or worse, Xbox XNA games like we saw on 360 last gen. Those games were nice to have but you don't build a library on them. Where are the classics? Sony is short on cash and this kind of line up is the result. They are using the cash from console sales to finance the rest of the company, while returning very little of it to the playstation fans that have given them such success then gen. I find this to be a far bigger disgrace than anything Microsoft TRIED to do at the start of this gen. Sony will continue to screw its fans as long as everyone pretends this is acceptable. These kind of low budget games didn't "count" last gen when they were all over 360, and they shouldn't count this gen either. Sony spend the cash, take the risk, and deliver for your fans.

[Goldby]

@Strike

are you being serious?

Wheres the Risk in a game like No Man's Sky, or all of PSVR? like all of it as its still new tech? wheres MS's VR?
the company isn't losing money, Sony Interactive Entertainment is actually making money and is seperate from the reast of Sony so it isn't held back by TV's or audio equipment.

So is Uncharted 4 crap? what about Drive Club, or Infamous SS, The Witness, The Order, HellBlade: Senua's Sacrifice? WiLD? Tomorrow Children? FF7R? Bloodborne?

Those are just some of the exclusive we got. can you let me know what the budget on these games were, becuase clearly you know that they were low budget /S

mkay thanks

[LuckyChamCham]

WOOOOO!!! Gravity Rush 2!!! :D

[ONESHOTV2]

it's good that you are hyped for the game but i can't support this type of practice that sony is doing gravity rush was something special to us vita owners and sony took one of the reason to even own a vita from us that's not cool if they want my support give me gravity rush on the go i dont care about playing a game like this on a home console becuase it doesnt feel special any more at least to me, they might as well take all the vita games and port them over to becuase we all know they dont care about us but it's alright i'm sure sony knows not to bite the hand that feeds them right ?

[G20WLY]

Just wow. -_-

[cemelc]

@ONESHOTV2
Dude that game is not going to sell well, and youre boycotting this?

Then we have no gravity rush 3 and youll be like all the persons crying about no sequel (like shenmue 3 for 10 years).... And believe me i know all about that.

Boycott call of duty, battlefront, or any of the big games, not the little ones

[DarkZane]

There is a reason why they changed gravity rush franchise from vita to ps4: The Vita is a failure and almost no one gave a damn about it.

[jukins]

Lol WOW how long was it on the vita before on ps4 get over yourself. Obviously you've had the vita for awhile and one title is not taking anything away. Hate to see this but it's obvious you're some jaded young gamer and you should grow up. The game still exists on vita I mean what's the difference whether someone plays the game on vita ps tv or ps4? Just don't get it

[_-EDMIX-_]

You can't accept a company using an intellectual property they legally own?

Ummmm ok bud. Good luck with that.

Sony did the financially smart thing and moved that series to a platform where the units could be successful, it's no different than when Nintendo was focusing on 3DS as opposed to Wii U because the sales were low. do you not actually understand that companies make games to make money? So why should they make a bunch of games on a platform that's not selling simply because you want it to exist? So they should go bankrupt to make you feel better?

Buddy it sucks when a platform fails it really does I own a GameCube and I own a PSP in the reality is it really sucks but I cannot expect a company to continue to fail to support something that won't help it in the future.

[ONESHOTV2]

DarkZane--oh really if it didn't sell well why would they make a second one ? sony used us vita owners as freaking baits knowing that the second game won't be on the vita how can a corporation do that to it's customers if they wanted the game to sell a lot why didnt they just make the game for the ps3 ? the reason for that is becuase they wanted to create a game that new console owners would love they did this knowing the second game wasnt going be on the vita it was just a set up and i don't like any company playing me like a fiddle so F them and gravity rush becuase i'm not buying it.

cemelc---DarkZane--- whose fault is that it wasn't us the customers that pushed the vita out without any support behind it all they did was push the over price memory stick in our face and say pay this amount or you won't be able to store your games dude i have invest more than 800$+ on the vita are you going to tell me i have no right to be mad at this sh--t for corporation that treats their customers like sh--t ? come on man be real i'm not a drone like the rest i will not support this crap and that's final i would tell any vita owner to not support this and let it die let the PS4 guys buy it like they are expecting them to do.

[TwoForce]

Wow ! Your opinion is completely way off. Do you really want kill this type of game ?

[DarXyde]

ONESHOTV2,

They're making a second one because the idea was loved...by those who played it. It wasn't moving Vita units, despite being a great game. With that in mind, the series is being given a new life by changing platforms to one with a much larger install base. Additionally, the series' potential increases exponentially. Much bigger world, voice acting, more robust functionality? It's all much more plausible on PS4.

I'm a Vita owner. I certainly don't feel like used bait. Did Sony *know* the sequel would be on PS4? Probably not. Eventually they made the decision that there would even BE a sequel. I'm sure that, given the success of every PlayStation and the PSP, they expected more out of Vita. It's not happening and they certainly don't want to give up on the IP. I'd say the console sequel is very clearly more reactionary than premeditated. Rise of the Tomb Raider was premeditated. BioShock was premeditated. What about the opposite scenario where Valkyria Chronicles moved to handheld FROM console?

As for your "strong investment" in Vita, there are certain reliable conclusions to draw from history if you were even paying attention. You're like the person who gets mad at Sony or Microsoft for releasing revised hardware. After the first time, you really can't complain without sounding like a petty brat. Were you even gaming back when PSP was big? The memory cards were always expensive and proprietary. The games are expectantly more expensive than the immediate competition. And, if feasible, a game that does well on console gets a handheld port...and if the handheld exclusive doesn't do as well as hoped but has potential, guess where it goes?

I'm gonna support it. As a Vita and PS4 owner because, surprise, they are not mutually exclusive gamers. Because I like playing great games and I'm going to reward the efforts of those studios to help them finance their next great game. As if you don't have to buy a new platform to play sequels all the time....

Feel that way all you like. I don't think very many at all will agree with your position. Frankly, it's immature.

[trooper_]

Do you game or are you completely against anything that's fun?

[PlatinumGX]

Don't worry, I'll buy it in your stead.

[agame914]

ya know i am a vita owner myself and I feel the same way. I love Sony but they comp abandoned us vita owners

[jznrpg]

I am a vita owner and loved Gravity Rush but ps4 can make it so much better, vita would hold it back a lot.

[Germany7]

I'm really hyped for Gravity Rush 2.too.

[TheEvilResident1997]

Can't wait to see more RE7 Biohazard!

[Akuma2K]

Can't wait to see more of RE7 and new footage of Outlast 2.

[ONESHOTV2]

wow no vita ? thanks sony i will know what to do when you make another handheld anyway i'm glad to see yakuza 0 on that list that and yakuza 6 and persona 5 are my three games. the only three game that's worth my money on the ps4

[Gemmol]

Vita died a long time ago, should of trade it in then before the system lost value for trade in

[daynnight365]

Nah man, try remote play

[stevansavic89]

darkest dungeon coming to vita and ps4 cross buy 27 September a must own on vita

[ONESHOTV2]

jukins---- and how do you know i'm a "young jaded gamer" please explain i'm sure you know something about me, dont jump to conclusion if you dont know what you are talking about it may save you from embarrassing yourself.

[Goldby]

same could be said about you and your claim that they knew before they released the first that the sequel to gravity rush was gonna be a ps4 game.

[TylerFischer]

I don't see them making another handheld anytime soon.

[ONESHOTV2]

TylerFischer-- that's good they wouldnt get my money any ways even if they did create another one

[TylerFischer]

ONESHOTV2 -- But the Vita "died" more by the lack of 3rd party support than the lack of 1st party support. Yeah it stinks they shun the audience now, but that's because that's not where the money is at. Same reason Nintendo has shun the Wii U. Can't fault them for it utterly.

[Silly gameAr]

Honestly, wouldn't hurt my feelings on bit. Never been into handhelds, and most likely never will be.

[ONESHOTV2]

TwoForce----no i dont want to kill unique games but when a big corporation piss off it's consumer i have to put my foot down and tell them this bullshi--t will not work look at how many unique games the PSP had were all of them on the ps3 ? no so why can't the vita keep it's games if they wanted to sell more vita's they would have market the dam device better talking about Word-of-mouth marketing bullsh---t that only goes so far.

[ONESHOTV2]

DarXyde-- of course a die hard playstation fan wouldn't agree with me what a surprise, guy you can't compare the vita to the psp becuase at least there were games to buy on the psp even if the memory sticks were a bit expensive right now the vita has nothing but expensive memory sticks and a handful of games i want to play. another thing calling me immature because i have a different opinion than you really who is the childish one i know this site is run by die hard Sony fans but i really dont care becuase no one on this site will change what i have said so you and the rest can type ever bullsh--it you want becuase sony can do no wrong

[trooper_]

It wasnt your opinion that you got called out for, it was the way you presented it.

[Tobsesan]

Gran Turismo Sport
Titanfall 2
Destiny Rise of Iron

A whopping 3 games wooow

[OB1Biker]

Theres more than that I more interested in finding more about Horizon, Days Gone and Detroit demos + all the VR demos

[Tobsesan]

Arent those only Videos? So it will be most on VR.

[agame914]

xbox fan boy...........

[Tobsesan]

That is what the Articles states, 3 games of which 1. is a DLC 1. a multiplat and 1. a GT spinoff. If that is what your big lineup is, im sorry. If this would be the thing for Xbox/Nintendo I would say the same thing.

[talocaca]

At least the Tokyo Game Show is a few weeks later.

I expect a few interesting reveals and more info on Japanese games like Ni no Kuni 2!

Maybe something new from Capcom? Square has a bunch of stuff coming....Konami is dead to me :(

[TylerFischer]

I would be surprised if we get any info on Ni no Kuni 2 at TGS. Happy, but surprised. You gotta remember that game was big in the west, but flopped in Japan,

[Kiwi66]

Destiny Rise of Iron is an expansion for Destiny so when did dlc become a game

[SpaceRanger]

Maybe when a certain fanbase said that some fighting game's dlc counted as a "new exclusive".

[TheColbertinator]

You mean the Killer Instinct Seasons? I agree with you there. New characters but same mechanics,graphics and requires the main core download. Sounds like DLC.

[SSjDomon]

Hopefully some unannounced Vita games pop up.

[Tobsesan]

Not even 1 vita game will be theire

[SSjDomon]

What are the winning lottery number?

[TylerFischer]

Yeah the only time you will see a Vita game mentioned by Sony at an event will be PSX.

[SSjDomon]

Two psychics! Golly!

[Trapmaster]

I wonder if Sony will have another Paris Games Week conference this year in October after the tragic event of what happened in Paris last year

[TheColbertinator]

Germany has had its own incidents as well. Gamescon is hopefully free of such trouble.

[shadowknight203]

Truth be told the Vita was a flop everyone knows it, thats why Sony made gravity rush on ps4 and now its sequel

[daynnight365]

And they have Noone to thank but themselves (sony) for having the vita flop. Fuqing expensive memory cards, bs.

[SSjDomon]

No shit it flopped, but that doesn't mean it's a bad system or that it has no games or no good ones. What should concern you is that it's a good system, but you don't own one or have shit taste so your opinion is nothing.

[MilkMan]

Glad I'm not in Germany this year. That list is horrible.

[AngelicIceDiamond]

No Last Guardian?
