Sony Bend is the AAA team that released a game longest ago compared to all of the other AAA Sony studios and should have something ready to release very soon based on dev time.
It was a 4/10 at best for me. I NEVER imagined it would be this bad after waiting so long. No Factions, Twisted Metal, Wolverine, Sony Bend game, Ghost of Tsushima 2, etc. I usually don’t bash these shows, but man that was garbage.
I miss the days of Uncharted, TLoU, Infamous, Resistance, Little Big Planet, Motorstorm, The Puppeteer, Sly Cooper, Twisted Metal. Todays show was so damn aggravating.

Sheesh, I figured it shouldn’t be at least three bare minimum.
Hey, you guys remember a few years back when they said live service wouldn’t effect their singleplayer output? Then, many people said these live service games will only lead to more singleplayer games……. That was all stupid as hell. Who wants to own up to it?
@OrtadragoonX Uncharted could be completely rebooted telling an entirely different story, with different cast, in a different decade or century. I see the Uncharted universe as bigger than Nathan Drake. I see Uncharted like the MCU, Nathan is in its universe, but there are other stories to tell, there are other adventures to be had.
For whatever reason, I’m not really that hyped. I expect to be disappointed. It feels like there is no way they can get me hyped after being quiet for so long. They’ve annoyed me too much over the past 3 years.
I hope I’m wrong though.
I would love an Uncharted game with a brand new everything. Uncharted is bigger than Nathan and his friends and family. It could take place in a different decade or century.
I’d love for Motorstorm to return, even though it would be with a different team. Sony shutting down evolution pissed me off.
I could write a book on what I hope they have at that show and how they’ve dissatisfied me, but it is what it is.
I don’t care about a raise in price because I only purchase games when I really want them.
For example, if the new Dead Space game was 70$, I’m only interested in it on sale. So, they could charge 200$ and it wouldn’t bother me. If 70$ is a deal breaker for you, wait for a sale.
@nyXhc420 I wish I would’ve got it for 40$, I paid 70$. That’s why I remember because it really stood out to me. I remember it being slightly more expensive than other games I bought at that time.
@Realist Im with you. Cinematic’s do NOTHING for me now if there isn’t some gameplay here and there. Most time when I see a new game trailer I immediately skip to the gameplay to see if it’s for me. Don’t get me wrong, I love stories, but I need to see gameplay.
@Blofse It’s always funny to me to see people complain about a 70$ price tag today when I remember buying MK2 for the SNES at Kmart for 69.99$ back in the 90s.
@nomither6 If the project sucked and was in poor condition and wasn’t likely to be improved without bringing in another team and burning more cash, why would they want to do that?
This easily COULD be the best decision but considering you and I DONT know that state of the project, we can’t make an accurate statement.
With that said, there is no reason to bash Sony in this instance since again, you don’t know that state of things.
I always assumed that’s basically what was going to happen according to the ending of the MK11 DLC.
I don’t know why some people would be surprised.
It’s been years since I beat it, but I believe it also alluded to going back in time.
So, I n ver understand all these people begging for characters when if it actually took place during the great Kung Lao era, none of the mains would be present, but this could just be locked to the story mode and regular modes could have some of the traditional favorites.
I guess we’ll see. For years now we’ve heard promises from the entire industry promising this or that and for the most part the games turned out mediocre at best.
Granted, we get some great ones every now and then.
I still stand by say I hope not because either the prices of the subs will have to rise or quality will have to take a hit.
I prefer traditional games with traditional experiences at a traditional price.
I paid 70$ for Mortal Kombat 2 back in the 90s. I have no issue with games being 70$ or higher, BUT, like then, I only buy them if I really think they are worth it. I’d give 100$ for the newest GoW, but I wouldn’t give 50$ for that newest Saints Row.
I played Destiny 2 for a few months after release and then quit.
After it went F2P, I hopped back in for a very short time but deleted it soon after.
I’m just not a fan of what’s required to keep up with what’s actually happening in it, and now, things have been removed and if you haven’t followed it closely you will be lost.
It’s an awesome artsy experience but a very mediocre game. I actually played it some last night. I hop on from time to time to check out what is most popular.
The beginning of the article says Sony has been silent on the PSVR2…hell, Sony is silent period. It’s not just VR news, I think they’ve forgotten the PS5 exists.
@EhronLocke I was speaking for myself and my friends where money isn’t much of an issue.
I bought 3 PS4s, 2 PSVRs, and 2 PS5s for me and my family over the last 10 years. I truly have no idea how much I’ve spent on games.
If I move to PC, Sony will lose out on hardware sales, and a ***** ton of PlayStation store sales that my family and I make. Remember, Sony makes money on ever single purchase made in the PS Store as well including mtxs and dlc. So, if I move to PC they will miss out on me buying Assassin’s Creed for example. My friends are the same way as myself.
Heck, Sony may not care, but they EASILY stand to lose 10000s of thousands of dollars bare minimum just on us with the direction they are pushing us.
@Leonhart I don’t like PlayStation using some of the best talent they have to make PC ports, so, bad news is good news. Naughty Dog should be focusing on making fantastic PS5 games, not PC ports.
I called it a long time ago. There won’t be much of a reason to buy a console in the future and if they have to cater to weaker PCs it’s going to hinder quality going forward as well. Hell, they are already push GaaS too.
I’m absolutely despise the direction PlayStation is headed. These companies are also pushing subscriptions services which will also attribute to the decline of top tier quality as well.
I dread seeing the state of games in 7 years.
This is just absolutely ***** news.
Hell, they already hindered the PS5 for these past few years due to PS4 crossgen and now they are going to make it a permanent path with weaker PCs. We won’t see a true PS5 game until halfway into the PS6’s generation.
@get2sammyb It’s a slightly different subject but I’ve said for a while now, Microsoft will offer many games in a traditional manner but it will get to the point to where they won’t sell them, you will only be able to play them on GamePass at a price of 25$ or higher a month, and when it comes to other competitors like Sony, the only way they will be able to have the games is if they allow GamePass on their consoles. That way they never lied, they’ve offered their games to competitors.

Re: Here's Exactly What Newly Revealed PS5, PC Game Concord Is
It’s going to be crazy to see almost all of these GaaS Sony games die in the next seven years and then watch Sony scramble to correct course lol.
Re: The Lord of the Rings: Gollum (PS5) - There's Nothing Precious About This

Re: Mortal Kombat 1 May Hit Your PS5 SSD with a Fatality
Well, so much for that SSD compression that was bragged about three years ago.
Re: Poll: How Hyped Are You for the PlayStation Showcase?
@Ken_Kaniff You continue to share my sentiment. It’s kinda mind blowing. Be sure to read my statement above this comment.

Re: Deviation Games' PS5 Exclusive Project Doesn't Appear to Be Progressing Well
@nomither6 I didn’t give them hell for it. If it needed to be cancelled, it is what it is.
Re: Deviation Games' PS5 Exclusive Project Doesn't Appear to Be Progressing Well
@UltimateOtaku91 They already do that though, and you hold them at fault for trying to find a promising studio?
I’m really not trying to defend Sony for just operating a business with common sense.

Re: PS5 Pro Is '100%' Happening, Says Reliable Report

Re: Soapbox: I No Longer Think Subscriptions Like PS Plus, Xbox Game Pass Are the Future of Gaming

Re: Poll: Are You Playing Star Wars Jedi: Survivor?
@KaijuKaiser I specifically looked into the PS5 version and people are reporting that it’s fine, not good, but still has quite a few issues.
I’m just over letting these companies think it’s okay to release a game with the intention of fixing it in the future.
I’m not going to give them their day one week one success sales numbers.
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Star Wars Jedi: Survivor?
I was going to buy it today, but after all of the bad performance reports I’ve seen I’ll pick it up sometime down the road.
Re: Sony's PS Plus Subscriber Count Is on the Rise Once Again
If I could play online for free like it use to be I would drop the sub in a heartbeat.

Re: Destiny 3 Begins Trending on Twitter As Fans Are Fed Up with Current Game
I played Destiny 2 for a few months after release and then quit.
After it went F2P, I hopped back in for a very short time but deleted it soon after.
I’m just not a fan of what’s required to keep up with what’s actually happening in it, and now, things have been removed and if you haven’t followed it closely you will be lost.
I prefer they soft reboot Destiny 3.
Re: Sony's Long Anticipated PS5, PS4 Showcase Could Be Scheduled for May
@Ken_Kaniff If it’s expected to be a good show, my family and I make time to watch them. As of late, that hasn’t been the case.
I think the last time my family and I got really excited was when Uncharted 4 had its first preview.
Re: Sony's Long Anticipated PS5, PS4 Showcase Could Be Scheduled for May
@AFCC With Sony deciding to focus on GaaS and PC, it will be a very long time before the PS4 dies.
From here on out, innovation and pushing games forward by utilizing new tech like the PS5 and eventually the PS6 in all regard is out of the picture.
We’ll probably be halfway into the PS6’s life before we see the PS5 tech maxed out.
Re: Consumer Spending Growth on Subscriptions Like PS Plus Is Slowing
I’ve caught up on a majority of games I want to play, so, when my sub ran out I went back to the most basic version.
