Crazy thought, maybe if your expectations were actually realistic based on track-record and format you might not be constantly disappointed.

I'm sorry, but Sony has been using this format for a month shy of 6 years at this point. If the penny hasn't dropped by now as to how to manage expectations then its on you.

You're not wrong, but it's also on Sony because they aren't satisfying people with a proper showcase.

You get the occasional big reveal like Ghost of Yotei and the semi-big reveal of Horizon Remaster.

I think I'd be happy if they announced a new game and showed off a new remaster/remake that isn't Day's Gone or a remaster of PS2 and PS3 games like GoW1-3.

I also think we should see some gameplay of Ghost of Yotei if its dropping within the next 10 months and obviously we'll see Death Stranding 2, though I'm less excited about that.

My realistic expectations are

Death Stranding 2
Ghost of Yotei
Marathon
God of War Greek Saga Remaster PS2, PS3, Vita games
Day's Gone Remastered


And yeah, I'll be pretty disappointed if that's what it is.

At some point we need to see Cory's game, but just a year ago he was saying how he was seeing early things coming together, which was weird at the time and I'm surprised no one said anything then. I think most presumed he was working on something since at least 2022, so we're probably looking at 2027 release.

We could potentially see more of Intergalactic depending on how far from release it is, but that could also be a 2027 release.

Wolverine is probably delayed at least partially due to the voice actors strike.

I now don't expect to see anything from Bend or Bluepoint.

We should see something from Media Molecule sooner rather than later.

I wonder if we'll see something like Until Dawn VR from firesprite.

The internet tells me bungie might show their gummy bears game. If only it wasn’t just a code name

Cory Barlog's new game could not go into full production until after GOWR, which was late 2022. "Early things coming together" makes sense. And given how successful the GOW reboots were for Sony, I'm guessing the scale and budget for this game is going to be absurd. 2027 at the earliest. Intergalactic is surely 2026

Not a game under bungie anymore, they were brought into Sony internally. We have no idea how far in development the game is either. It's probably at least 2 years in development.

Sony could have canceled this game and laid off the employees, but they opted to keep the game. So it'll be interesting to see what it is.

The backwards 2027 i.e. 7202 was almost certainly a hint that the game is scheduled to come out in 2027.

When you try and look at a plausible Sony pipeline it could look something like this

2025
Death Stranding 2
Ghost of Yotei
Marathon
Venom

2026
Wolverine
FairGame$
New Housmarque game
Until Dawn 2/New horror game from Firesprite

2027
Intergalactic
Horizon Online from NCSoft
Media Molecule game?
Astro Bot 2
Destiny 3

2028
TLOUP3
Gran Turismo 8
Spider-Man 3
Helldivers 3
Bloodborne Remake from Bluepoint

2029
Horizon 3
Bend Studios Game
Ratchet and Clank
Jason Blundell's new game

2030
X-Men

If Sony fully acquires Kadokawa at some point, you add their production in there too. Throw in a couple games from minor studios including remasters and some china hero project stuff and India hero project...Maybe a couple more Korean games. It's a pretty decent lineup.

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

So there is now a chance that this sop will be good

Hell yes there is

 

[engstra]

This list looks nice, but leaves no room for the weird indie games that no one cares about that they will likely show.

The weird indie games are usually the biggest surprises and interesting games. I want more focus on those tbh

 

[thatJohann]

Hope we get a shadow drop of a new game today.

 

[adamsapple]

Sony doesn't have staff for all this output. I would count 1-2 games per year.

I hate having good & exquisite taste, because all I see of interest for me there is Ghost of Yotei. And even that will probably dissapoint to some extent since I don't think they will be able to get rid of the Ubisoft-like dead open world gameplay.

As for Microsoft Game Studios Xbox ports, I'm only really interested in the State of Decay franchise and maybe Hellbalde 2 (the latter at half the launch price).

Guess I'll just have to rely on 3rd parties for my gaming fix.

HYPE

 

[Clear]

Not possible within the restrictions of the format. Its utterly impossible for any single platform do the equivalent of 4 E3 scale keynote's a year. Doubly so given the extreme length of dev cycles on current hardware.

Sorry, but its just indefensible at this point not to accept how much everything has changed over the past decade.

 

[Draugoth]

 

[MrJangles]

I'm looking forward to seeing what pc ports are announced just to annoy the fanboys.

 

[W11d]

looks like a nice lineup for a pre-show

 

[Bernardougf]

Expect bloodborne and receive gummy bears gaaaaaaaaaas ...

Awsome gen.. so much better than ps3 indeed

 

[PatientGamer]

Horizon Forbidden Remaster of Western Remake

- PS5 & PC day 1 launch
- Herman Hulst Skin

 

[Hudo]

I am ready to be disappointed.

 

[Fake]

Horizon Forbidden West Part II.

 

[Trogdor1123]

What are the odds Oblivion remake gets announced here?

About the same as bloodborne…

 

[DeepEnigma]

maybe they're the ones doing Days Gone Remastered haha

Here’s the rub in the ReRe gaming community. They will troll with this supposed remaster in one breath, but then provide receipts that Sony wants nothing to do with the IP in another.

Retarded.

 

[Salz01]

Hype deflated when I read Gummy Bears game from Bungie. How the mighty have fallen…

 

[touchfuzzy]

First chance at Silksong for 2025, let's get that clown makeup ready!

 

[Horseganador]

In each state of play the same loop, lots of crazy rumors...then we'll see multis, the date of DS2 and some surprises and back to doomed Sony.

 

[adamsapple]

Just RE IX being at the show will make it a success for me.

If they show IX, I will give it an A grade in the inevitable 'rate the show' thread regardless of whatever else they show.

I heard there's a chance it's being announced today.

 

[DeepEnigma]

Hell yes there is

Here’s the thing, why would they announce another from them unless it’s ready to go now, before Marathon?

Marathon hasn’t even shipped yet.

 

[rofif]

Who the hell is gonna take anything you say seriously when you liked forspoken? Even the most woke infested Wolverine game would be Miles better than that sack of shit.

You don't even know how IGNORANT and stupid it is to still hate on forspoken.
It only shows that you wouldn't know a good game if it was shoved in your face.
Forspoken is a fantastic game and insomniac can suck my dick

 

[JaksGhost]

Director of XDev. Some big reveals must be coming up this afternoon.

 

[Wolves hunt in packs]

6 hours to go.

For sure something God of War, no?

Stellar Blade devs retweeted this. Possible DLC and / or PC port announcement.

[yogaflame]

Prepare to be disappointed. Possibly, dominated by live services and ps5 ports to pc, stellar blade is one of the expected pc ports but hopefully news of new expansion on ps5. No wolverine, no blue point and bend studio, while bloodborne and parasite eve are just copium. The show might be remnants of Ryan and Hulst management.

Yup - check out this guy.

I mean ... holy shit, dude - your expectations are off the roof.

They assisted in the development of Stellar blade and Death Stranding 2.

[Fbh]

This actually seems pretty plausible IF you:
- Replace both God of War for Horizon Games
- Replace Playstation All Stars 2 for a Horizon Game
- Silksong for a Horizon game
- SonyXCapcom for a shitty GAAS game (probably Horizon themed)
- Bloodborne 2 for a Horizon game
- Infamous 2 for FariGame$
- Psp 2 for a horizon themed Ps Portal.

DEFINITE Stellar Blade - related announcement.

That means it’s most probably the pc version release date announcement trailer

They're mainly a support studio, worked in almost every big PS games lately. The rumor is that they're getting the chance to release a game of their own, or at least not only supporting, but co-developing

 

[yogaflame]

That means it’s most probably the pc version release date announcement trailer

I hope its not just that but also news of Stellar blade DLC expansion on ps5. But we shall see. Its just a few hours from now. Keeping expectations low so not to be disappointed. This show has potential to be the best and also potential to be the worse ever.
