New day, new reminder for Sony (Shawn Layden, Andrew House, Adam Boyes):

Time to remove the shackles of conservatism and embrace the hype train. My updated predictions for the keynote:
[*]A turnbuckle and wrestling ropes rise from the stage, and Shu rushes towards it and reaches over with his outstretched hand. Tretton tags him in.
If it eventuates itd only be a solid 7/10 show because no Mass Effect or Fallout.
When is the PlayStation Awards? Tomorrow isn't it? Shouldn't we have a thread?
Batch #1 is done. #2 will be in a few hours. I'm slowly collecting avatars, this will be a big project.

If it's not up by then, I'll start a thread.
And ultimately, PSAwards is an award event.

Ichiro Hazama of Dissidia fame was in attendance at the 2.5 launch event as an observer, but what do you think he's really in the US for?
Maybe something on PSX?
Top-tier in terms of video game announcements as you can get? Shenmue and Crash? In what universe? I get that some element of hype and megatonnage come in the context of franchise which already exist for obvious reasons, but It annoys me that we only a year into this generation and this thread seems to be dominated by wanting games that are literally older than some posters in this thread. I get it's much harder to elaborate upon your desire for games which don't exist (new IPs), but it's disconcerting when people are given free range to really request whatever nonsensical fantasy they can think of people jump to sequels, reboots, and remakes. It makes me question which party is more risk averse: publishers or consumers.But at the same time, what some people need to recognise is that, in a general sense, the likes of FFVII-R, Shenmue III, Sony Crash or the re-reveal of TLG represent the hypest of the hype. They're about as top-tier in terms of video game announcements as you can get, and this is an upcoming event that, due to some apparently reliable insider info, is going to bust out quite the megaton. So in that context, whining directly to a Sony representative in the thread that this game is a waste of time, or that game isn't worth spending any money on, or don't listen to those fans because they're deluded, is just kind of inappropriate. All you're doing is being this person here...

...a horrid little party pooper.
I don't even want a FFVII remake, because the original is my favourite game and I don't believe Square Enix is in a good enough state to do justice to the original, but sitting here whining about the possibility of it appearing in the next 4 days is just outright obnoxious. I might not want it, but I realise that a lot of people do, and I respect that.
So do I! I can do so and still express my opinion though. It's a hype thread, not a circle jerk.![]()
You requested it, so here is my poem:
Only 5 days away from our very first
Public event and the Gaf just bout burst
Amazing to see many guesses and Gifs
Until 10am that day youll be hanging from cliffs.
The problem with Gaf and its vast speculation
Is that even great news brings out your frustration
One persons favorite is anothers least fave
But we try to bring games that most gamers crave
Our goal is to have fun, share news, announce games
Meet new friends, talk games & also denounce flames
Keep an open mind while we attempt something new
Hope to see you all there where we can share a cold brew!

Ctrl + f "shenmue"It's a conference celebrating the last 20 years of gaming on PlayStation. These things are megatons in relation to the event.
the teasing is Beyond Good and Evil

first time posting in this thread and I have one question...
is there actually a chance that The Last Guardian will be shown?
hasn't been nearly as good since Activision bought the rights

And blend in with pedestrians and do a shit ton of side missions....they already got 99% of the game/quest design on hand from their previous annual titles already. Just re-skin the models, textures and call it a day; the Ubisoft way!Beyond Good and Evil?
In an open world where you have to unlock towers?
Any chance Nomura will stick around for event?
I know Shinji Hashimoto will be there but Nomura would be hype.
Fair point.Yeah and going by the hints that's justifiable megaton. What I'm saying is there is nothing wrong with looking at remasters and past franchises for this event when it is celebrating the past...
If this was e3 then fair enough. But it isn't!
No -- it's not. Wanting another Shenmue game is more of a joke and a meme than a cogent request.On the other hand, Shenmue is a series in dire need of closure
That's basically where it ends for me.Crash is the old-school mascot that was at his best during the PS1 days and hasn't been nearly as good since Activision bought the rights,
Wanting TLG is perfectly fine.TLG is the follow-up to two of the greatest games ever made but has gone AWOL for years and FFVII-R... well, okay, I'll give you that one. I don't think it needs to happen, but a huge amount of people do.
No doubt. But again. We just hit a year. The best available games are ports of two games that came out last year. Sure we're getting Rime and Bloodborne, but we've also already gotten another Infamous and Killzone. I still think wanting more new IPs should dominate most discussions.And there's nothing risk averse treating sequels and reboots as the major megatons when there's not exactly a dearth of new intellectual properties from Sony on the way. We've got Bloodborne, The Order: 1886, RiME, The Tomorrow Children, Until Dawn, Everybody's Gone to the Rapture, Helldivers, Alienation, that rumoured Guerilla game Horizon and more on the way. They've got that part covered.
Batch #1 is done. #2 will be in a few hours. I'm slowly collecting avatars, this will be a big project.

Bloody hell, the fun police just showed. Its an event celebrating 20 years in the game. I would be disappointed if nostalgia goggles weren't on and revival IP wasnt mentioned.

Celebrating 20 years or having nostalgia goggles doesn't somehow make Shenmue 3 a good idea. I grew up with Crash. I have incredibly fond memories of playing that game with my friends and family. But I could give a shit about a new Crash game. Fun police or not.Bloody hell, the fun police just showed. Its an event celebrating 20 years in the game.
