Sony : Paris Games Week press conference dated

I'm looking forward to this... Ideally I would like to see updates on some of the games Sony teased us with...

WILD
Tomorrow Children
RIME
The Forest
Dreams

I think we will see at least 2 new announcements... One from Quantic at least. Hoping for Kara, which was that demo of the AI becoming self aware. Blowouts with new gameplay for COD and BattleFront are a given IMO. I hope there is nothing on stage for Assassin's Creed, but knowing Sony it may be shown. PSVR? Some demos? Maybe a release date? Don't think we will see No Man Sky.

Just keeping my hype low though as I don't think there will be anything major. PSX will have more surprises and updates i think.
 
So are there confirmed YouTube livestreams for the event? So I can watch this on my Xbox One. Sorry for the drive by post if this has been mentioned multiple times!

RIME

These two would be good to see, a release date for RIME please and WiLD gameplay trailer rather than just an environment trailer.

With No Man Sky if VR dates get announced here we will see it but I think PSX will be more likely and it being a VR launch game.
 
I wonder why some suddenly think PSX has become the event for big announcements and surprises. Not to imply there won't be notable announcements at PSX, of course.

Well Sony skipped GC, so we can expect some announcements I guess? (Don't know how big the last PGW presentations of sony had been)
 
i'm ready.
i doubt sony could ever be able to top the last e3 but you never know...

They won't, and I think you'd have to be nuts to think there's a chance they could.

I'm sure there will be plenty of awesome announcements though. There's always a place in my heart for AA games, digital-only releases like Rime and indies and I'm willing to bet this conference will deliver in that respect.

Dreams, The Tomorrow Children and The Forest are all I need for this conference to be amazing, everything after that is just cake.

Good question. I'd guess it's a combination of GAF being more US based, so the US conference HAS to be more important, and that this is Sony's first conference at Paris Games Week, conveniently ignoring that this is basically just a late Gamescom conference. Either way, it's pretty ridiculous.
 
Tbh all I want from this conference is the Dreams info blowout.

Everything else it's just icing in the cake.

Me too. Seems like if this thing supports VR now is the time we will find out. Surely that means seeing some kind of live demo of how it all works. Seeing how the gameplay elements actually work as well as sculpting. And perhaps if it is VR supported we'll maybe get more info on PSVR just beforehand, like a tighter release date or pricing..? One can hope.

I'm not fussed by anything else that's been teased or leaked besides what's happening with Driveclub, so I hope there's other surprises in store like news on BC.
 
Nier Automata takes place on the devasted planet earth, and a battle between Androids created by humans, against the “Machine organisms” sent by the enemies of mankind.

This sounds very cool. I just dont fully understand why this is PS4 exclusive since Square is publishing and the first one was also available on X360. I want to understand what kind of deal was made with this one. Is Sony funding some part of this?

I assume Sony is paying Square Enix for it to be PS4 exclusive.

Could have the seen the sales numbers of the original on 360 and thought it wasn't worth the cost to develop an X1 version on small returns?
 
It won't be worth it :p

I don't think that was ever confirmed? I thought it was, but the recent discussion on who made Nier 2 possible seems like it being a PS4 title was entirely SE's choice.

SE has a deal with Sony about FF7r, though. That much I know.

The lack of JRPG fan base on the Xbox is what caused this exclusivity
 
All of Squares other games are either PS4/XBO/PC or PS3/PS4.

The only Japanese games coming to XBOne from SE are Final Fantasy XV and Kingdom Hearts 3(and Type 0 HD already released), and the decision on those was made before the generation started heading in the direction it is.
Are you saying Sony has paid for exclusivity on all of them?
