I don't think you know what that word even means. Just throwing around stuff because my opinion does not match with your? discuss or don't quote me.

As someone with no real nostalgia for Sony franchises, this seemed like a hype grab. TLG looks the same from 7 years ago. 7. Years. Explain how this is exciting. Sony isn't even funding Shenmue III, but they'll sure as hell take the hype for it and plug a friggin Kickstarter campaign. I mean why doesn't Nintendo Kickstart F-zero? And Ice Climbers, and Pikmin, and Zelda? The fans will pay for it, must be a good idea hurr durr. No. This is a multimillion dollar international corporation at the biggest conference in the world for arguably their most valuable division and they're plugging a Kickstarter. Am I dreaming? My brain hurts.

So no first party JRPG's announced. That means we have two to still be revealed this year. As per Verendus' hints.

Why not? Sony must have paid something for SFV, and that's PC/PS4.
I kind of echo Giant Bombs thoughts. They threw all the crowd-pleasers at us but kind of overlooked important things such as their sparse 2015 line-up and Morpheus details. Microsoft's seemed more immediately interesting.

Sorry if this have been asked before, but is there a digital file for this so I can get one made? Or one I can buy?
Unfortunately it ALL leaked before the show, and all the interesting games seem ages from release. That really put a damper on my enjoyment.
That said, the lady guardian is finally happening, and in spite of liking the same, it's beautiful.
Horizon may be good but good does she talk to much.
Great show by Sony.

Yeah, this is why I don't get people saying Sony isn't going to fund the rest.

What I'm feeling is a loss of "for the love of gaming". Instead of analyzing the horizon gameplay mechanics or how different Halo will feel with AI squad tactics it's all "not really into this", but what's coming in 2015 Sony you gonna get killed", "oh great another _____ we haven't had enough of those. Listen to 1upyours old E3 podcast one moment that stands out is Luke Smith dissecting a Lost Planet demo, it just sounds exciting. For the love of gaming. Got no real problem with the people of the gaming press just think they are focusing on the wrong topics.
That being said loved the Horzion demo the movement the destructible environments and the main character cannot wait to see more.
Someone needs to edit this with shots of FFVII Shenmue 3 and TLGI feel like this pretty much sums up Sonys E3 conference.

Even if one ignores the 'weight' of the dream-come-true announcements, those were still content admirable of a good E3:
I mean, let's talk the big stuff, we've got:
First Party:
Horizon
TLG
Dreams
Rig (Morpheus)
Third-Party:
World of FF
FFVII:R (timed exclusive)
Shenmue 3 (console exclusive)
4 first-party announcements, 3 of them AAA-caliber announcements.
3 third-party announcements, 2 that aren't timed.
5 high-calibre announcements is pretty decent for an E3. There is no E3 where publishers announce a gazillion exclusives.

So your saying that this conference was only used to generate hype for the Sony brand...intriguing, tell me more.

Is there any conceivable way Shenmue 3 costs 2 mil to make? That's why I think Sony is paying something along the way. Seems too low of a number for a game these days.

And this awesome ass looking game isn't even the goddamn major talking point of the show. What an AWESOME conference.
What do you mean no? What the hell do you mean no?? I'D KICKSTART THE SHIT OUT OF FZERO.
Now I'm mad at Nintendo for not doing something like that. Gah!

People are getting too excited for name brands and thinking these shows are legendary. Shit is all smokes and mirrors. When you peel the announcements away, we are still a long ways from seeing a lot of these games in playable form.
Marketing at its best.

Could be as boring as ICO
Yeah, too bad they don't have timed DLC exclusivity on the two biggest games coming this fa--.
Oh wait...

I don't necessarily buy them funding all of it, but I could see them taking the absolute brunt of the financial heat for sure.
My money is definitely on a 2017 release. That would be the 20th anniversary. Makes sense to me.

So why is it ps4 console exclusive then? If it's so trivial why didn't MS just fund it? Or Nintendo? Because they didn't want to bother apparently but it's too late now, not sure how this could be a bad thing, Sony came out and gave million dollar exposure that's what they did...
Zelda really? Did you see sony out there kickstarting killzone?
you seem very insecure.
wut? did I say that was nonsense? please elaborate?

First FF7 RE, then Shen-fucking-Mue 3!
Together with Bloodstain (Sotn style) that was record breakingly funded.... I felt like my childhood just flashed before my eye lol.
Sony just sold me a PS4, even when I know perfectly well that I will NOT have time to play these games properly, I just have to buy them to show support.

Not to throw the wrench in, but I wouldn't be surprised if a massive number of those Redditors were shills. Even GAF had its own cleansing of them, with Bish stating that the majority came from one particular side/platform...and that's with GAF account verification et all.

It isn't about the $2nil. It's the number of people contributing.
Number of people contributingx$60 is a measure of demand. Budget that Sony ponies up to help Yu will adjust accordingly.

So like every Sony press conference ever?
Sony on average, announces anywhere from 15-20 games every year (inc.third-party exclusives, smaller digital first-party games, and remasters/ports). We're lucky if more than 5 of them are for the year it was announced.
I get being disappointed that Sony's Q4 isn't very strong for a certain group of people. But Sony's never done the whole "announce and release in 6 months stick" for their biggest games, and obviously they've not changed that approach.

Bro welcome back to the fold. GB is terrible
yeah ok $5 mill was silly,its 5.35am in England and Ive been up all night,
and the kickstarter is already at 1.2mill.
if 1 million people donated $30 each thats 30 mill which is pretty insane.
The more I think about it, 2 million seems to be low balling it doesent it? I would if yu suzuki is prepared to do a $20 million+ project?

Their twitter says very soon. so PGW it is. Smart decision anyway, this conference couldn't have handled another reveal lol
When I peel back the nuke announcements, I see I get to play the SF5 beta next month. That's pretty fucking hype to me.

What file format do you need? I made it, but it's a very small size (1024x512 pixels) so I'm not sure how well it'd print out at any respectable size...

Same thing! I've watched for years with bated breath, and the first time in years that I was doing something else, the bombs came heavy!

I can see it... The not too distant future. Every conceivable project from every developer in existence is on Kickstarter. Only the 3 highest funded are developed each year. Power of the people. Democracy in action.
