All Sony has to do announce a ps4 pro drop price then have an announcement of gt sport as well and announced God of war getting release plus show some new ps4 games as well ps vr also announced s ps vita successor have one more crack st the portable market

Kurisu2558d ago

I think the slim, Pro and PSVR will all get a price drop at E3 this year, and hopefully we will start to see some special edition PS4 Pro's.

iceman062558d ago

While I agree that this would be cool, you said this as if it were kind of casual decisions. 😂 Release dates and price drops are easy. A handheld? That would be a pretty significant announcement.
IMO, the momentum is clearly with Sony. They have a huge roster of games still to be released. We KNOW they will announce new ones. The Pro has done well for what it was intended to do (bridge the gap to 4K). VR is still growing as a medium and they have both feet squarely in the door. They pretty much have an option for everything...aside from the portable market which has more competition than ever.
MS has a beefy new console upgrade. But, it will not be cheap AND will still need the support of more first party games. At this point, feature for feature, the consoles basically do the same stuff. For better or worse, the mass market doesn't care about nuances. That's who makes the real money for MS and Sony. That's who MS must win back. That's a hell of a challenge at this point.

If Sony announces BloodBorne 2 on top of showing gameplay for the game's they've already announced, then there won't even be a comparison; they'll have beat the competition by a mile.

FinalFantasyFanatic2557d ago

If they announce a new handheld, they better support it this time, or at least give us some more Asia-English releases to make up for it.

Sony will win the show by default even if they didn't attend E3, it's domination to this level 😂

Feel sorry for Xbox fans, all their E3s were about TV, Cloud, TV, DX12, TV, Kinect removed to get more room for graphic upgrade, TV and finally Scorpio.

chrisx2558d ago

The upcoming ps4 exclusives that we know of and the unknown ones that we know are coming is unbeatable

There is 1 reason Sony will slaughter Xbox and Scorpio, GAMES, GAMES, GAMES.

For the first time in a long time I have a hard time feeling excited for these events. Maybe it's because of all these massive lay offs and closures there hasn't exactly been good news since the start of the year.

Maybe come next week I'll get a little more excited but I dunno I just can't get too excited right now

Maybe it will be an indie showcase.

Cancelling e3 and introducing some ridiculous events..
Times have changed.. to the worse

Lightning7716h ago(Edited 16h ago)

Back then it was very exciting, great looking trailers, on stage live gameplay where yes things can and have went wrong but that's how we knew it was a real games being played instead of curated footage extra doctored up that didn't even represent the actual game half the time. Games would release 6 months to a year max not 3 years later.

I miss past E3's even the goofiness like Giant enemy crab or Riiiidge Raceeer. Xbox and Kinect glitching Nintendo's craziness. Again it was real, these days there so protective, clean, doctored sets, where nothing can absolutely go wrong. Too strict and professional with heavy PR babble with buzzwords that mean nothing. Being professional is not bad but when it's fake and corporate heavy where you're made to buy into the words rather than the game, that's how you know it's not real.

Now SFG is just sizzle reeling all the games at once. Plus past SGF events haven't been that great either. Maybe that's not Geoffs fault but the pubs and devs are simply never ready to show anything and have to wait. This gen we've been waiting and waiting for these games.

Plus lay offs as I Mentioned. I dunno Geoff needs to do what made E3 great back then, get funding support and do live stage gameplay he has the support and so why not? Pubs and devs need to do their own thing at the event again. No more doctored bull crap with PR diarrhea trying to sell the game show us with a controller in your hand instead of making empty promises.

Rant over.

I will never forget the pre-e3 one year where Kojima was teasing MGS Rising.. and Peace Walker.

Such an incredible period where studios enjoyed what they were doing and teasing their work weeks before the event.

Nowadays is half baked games, cross gen titles, useless mid gen upgrades. There is no hype anymore.
Last great show I remember is the PS EXPERIENCE maybe 3 or 4 years ago in December

Maybe it's because Keighley sucks and never puts on good showcases.

Lightning7714h ago

They aren't geoffs games he's not makin it. Though you're half right, he has the stage and events and controls the pace, how the games are shown and presented. If I was him I would have devs have real gameplay with a stage like how E3 used to be.

No more of this curated pre done footage that we've had in the past 4 years.

Actually before that they've been doing that format for awhile. Cyber Punk being the biggest culprit of that format because you can easily deceive and lie to ppl.

Yeah Geoff is half to blame

isarai19h ago

Is it just me or is there little to no buzz or marketing leading up to this compared to previous SGF?

monkey60215h ago

Because they've been consistently boring for the last couple of years. Hard to get worked up for it now

bRuud8316h ago

Where is Sony? Still no news about the next Playstation showcase.

Lightning7714h ago

Hopefully early next week at this point they are signed to SGF so they'll be there.

I also said in another post it's rumored to be a State Of Play now. The only AAA's I can see being announced now is Ghost 2 and Bends New game.

I can't see Santa Monica's New IP or ND New IP being announced. I can see GG being there announcing leggo Horizon, Zero Dawn remake or remaster, maybe the LS horizon game.

Skuletor13h ago

After the way they rudely hurried people off the stage at The Game Awards, I won't bother watching any of the streams for this. I'll just checkout out a few game trailers on Youtube after they're uploaded there.

Boosteroid Plans On Adding More AAAA Titles Exclusively To The Service

The VP of Marketing at Boosteroid revealed that the company is in talks with major publishers to secure exclusive games on the service.

Relientk772d ago

So they're adding Skull and Bones to their service? That doesn't seem exciting at all lol.

EternalTitan1h ago

The games should come with a torchlight to help you find the extra "A"
