it's the same case as ever with geoff's shows. at most 2 big games shown while the rest are imo just filler that would not look wrong on one of sony's less interesting state of plays.
but the production value is great as always.
hopefully with him getting elden ring maybe more devs will finaly give him big games to show off.
my highlights where death stranding and elden ring.
what we will see at things like e3 are indeed 3rd party deals like FF etc but no first party showcases exept for a ratchet trailer and horizon forbidden west.
the ps5 showcases where sony's big blowout event in a long time bust also the only ones for a long time to come.
i think they could do a big blowout in the middle of this gen again though.
altough sony should make it clear(er) that they won't be at e3 because i have seen quite a bit of youtube titles speculating about sony reveals at e3. and i think that will ofcourse lead to disappointment when it turns out that sony was not at e3 because they did not let people realy know in advance.
i do feel that people should always remember that the devs are not the bad people in this story. but rather the upper management.
can't help but feel sorry for them taking the heat while the bosses run around scott free.
i truly hope they will be able to fix their reputation but let them take all the time they need to do so. the last thing they need is players breating down the developers necks prompting the upper management to be dicks again to their staff.
i played trough the game right up untill the final boss fight against "you know who" than died so i stopped.
decided to come back 2 days later to retry but saw i had to redo the other big boss fight just before "you know who" and remembering how much of a slog it was the first time,i just shut of the game and deleted it.
still not proud of this one and sort of regret it since i had a realy good time with the game as a whole. but the last chapters just being bossfights was to much for me in the end.
wonder when they will fix the problem that causes some trophies you earned on the ps4 version not popping when playing the ps5 version. some popped others did not.
tbh there should be a rule against online trophies counting towards the platinum in a SP game with a online mode.
some games with a great SP campaign like resistance can't be platted anymore because the online is dead. and why do the gta online and red dead online trophies count towards the platinum when rockstar sees those game as seperate from red dead and gta v SP modes anyway?
obviously this should not be the rule for online focused games like COD and battlefield.
realy no need for a state of play if this is the result. returnal already looked good so the only thing was ps5 FF7 for free. but that could have just gotten a announcement on it's own.
also weird for sony to delay the march plus games reveal and still not show it on a state of play BUT revealing a plus game for april.
sure you did not outright say that the numbers where dire because of lack of interest alone,but you did imply it. even the comment section called it out.
altough i did get an email and avatar for getting the platinum on spiderman back in 2018, i'm not getting my hopes up this time since these rewards are usualy only for the US.
thing is this game was teased in 2012. BEFORE ps4 and xbox one where released.
so somewhere in development after those consoles where out they must have gotten to a point where they saw that the game was getting to big for those consoles and should have made a decision. either cut back on the game,very unfortunate for their vision but it would atleast work on the consoles the game was first aimed at all the way back in 2012. or keep the vision but cut the ps4,xbox one version and make it all next gen only.
it seems that they could not make a decision and decided to keep the vision and still release it on last gen despite knowing it would not run well at all.

Re: Trophy Hunter Mark Cerny Skips the Platinum if it Requires Online Play

Re: Talking Point: Did Sony's State of Play Livestream Meet Your Expectations?
yeah the lack of plus games reveal is rather concerning. now we atleast know it won't be anything big. so why not reveal it yesterday?
Re: Talking Point: Did Sony's State of Play Livestream Meet Your Expectations?
awfull.
realy no need for a state of play if this is the result.
returnal already looked good so the only thing was ps5 FF7 for free. but that could have just gotten a announcement on it's own.

Re: State of Play Livestream Confirmed for Thursday, Focuses on 10 PS5, PS4 Games
While i would love to see Horizon forbidden west,please lower your expectations.
I think that they would rather do a state of play later just for that game.
Also it's only 30 minutes long,don't expect any mayor first party News. Besides Sony Said that this Will be mostly 3rd party so yeah.

sure you did not outright say that the numbers where dire because of lack of interest alone,but you did imply it. even the comment section called it out.
Re: Bedlam in Japan as New PS5 Stock Arrives at Tokyo Retailer
"We'll need to wait for demand to be met before we can truly come to any conclusions about PS5 over there."
funny you say that since it was you that wrote the article about lack of demand in the first place

Re: Official Killzone Website Shut Down, Some Services Affected

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 358

hoping strikers will be as good .
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 357

Re: Feature: 12 PS5, PS4 Predictions for 2021

Re: Hype Intensifies as PlayStation Tells Us to Tune into The Game Awards
@JJ2 i would have said a gow trailer but i think that game won't release untill holliday 2021,so it might be to early for a trailer.
the teaser at the ps5 event was obviously an exeption done to spike those ps5 pre order numbers up.
Re: Hype Intensifies as PlayStation Tells Us to Tune into The Game Awards
anyway sony announements i can see happening.
R&C release date
horizon FW trailer
new game reveal with just a teaser.
