It's 2 days, so-
Day 1: play a bit
Day 2: play a bit
Day 3: go back home
Day 4-5: edit video/write impressions/etc
Day 6-7: weekends + overtime for slow writers/video editors
Day 8: preview drop
Seems like it's rather meaty if they're doing two days of events, ( that or different press for different days) so unfortunate, but it's about the right timing for these kind of stuff. =/

I wonder when the reviews will be going live. It often happens a week or two ahead of launch if it's a big Sony game they have confidence in.

I'm hoping if they're really confident with their game, they drop the reviews two weeks before release. Help feed into the hype cycle for the game

Beautiful OP, nice work JuanLatino and mitverachtung!
You really think the Sony faithful who will be buying this on Day 1 will really be bothered by Switch & Zelda?
Nah.

Nice OP update, well done. Although I don't really think the Verendus references should be left in anymore.

TBH I'd get rid of all the rumours from the OP. I don't think they should be validated like that when some of them could turn out to be complete bullshit. If they're worth talking about, we'll bring them up anyway.
Nice update though. A couple of additional changes I'd make: Remove Wattam and Modern Zombie Taxi Co. because they're no longer Sony published. And change Drawn to Death, as it isn't going to be F2P anymore. Otherwise, it's good.

I hope they're on the road to recovery after Stig's game crashed and burned. I love God of War, but I really hope there's a second pre-production team and the development force will be able to move on to something once work on that wraps.

It still mentions Guerrilla Cambridge in the # of employees at GG
, and I also agree that the rumours should probably be taken out unless there are better sources (he was always very sketchy on the big JRPG anyway). Also, I believe North-West Studio is now called Manchester Studio?JuanLatino

Thank You Guys 
Glad you like it
I will delete the Verendus Rumous, it really doesn't make sense to keep them in the op
Alright got it !

I wonder what SSM will do after God of War. Another shot at a new IP?
It's called Manchester Studio now.

Few suggestions for the OP (great job btw!):
1) Perhaps put the Metacritic for Infamous: First Light in the Sucker Punch category.
2) Get rid of Gravity Rush 2 for Sony Japan PS4 projects since it has released.
3) Change Drawn to Death to 17 since it's no longer 2016. Also, I was watching him stream Bloodborne, and he says we "should" be getting Drawn to Death "soon" and news about its release soon, so I'm thinking 2017 will be the release.
4) Change Wild's release date to 2017 since it's no longer 2016.
Really love the effort of this thread.

Well, the game is a PS console exclusive, and it was announced at their Gamescom conference as such
yeah but I cant find the game/studio below collaborations.

hellblade is confirmed for PC
Thats because its not a Sony game. Ninja Theory owns it
They do have some kind of deal, but not in that way
LiquidSolid

Yeah, it's probably timed exclusive like The Witness and Firewatch.

Great work mate, this thread keeps on giving <3
Thread is missing Crash Remaster and Wipeout aswell locoroco etc... Can you add those?
Also Ni Oh is missing, Sony is publishing it.

Publishing Nioh outside of Japan doesn't make it first party, otherwise he may as well add Destiny and Call of Duty too because Sony publishes those two franchises inside Japan.
I am trying to find a source for this, but everything is vastly outdated. Can anyone point me to something about the game? Does it still live?

Both, the Crash Remaster and WipEout are not first party.
The Crash remasters are developed by Vicarious Visions and the WipEout remasters are developed by Clever Beans and EPOS.
But Locoroco, Patapon and Rapappa the Rapper are pretty much first party (Japan Studio), yes. I'll have that in mind. Thanks for the note!

Wipeout is first party dude; it's probably Sony's oldest active franchise. Just because it's not developed internally doesn't make it not-first party.

It's a PlayStation exclusive game series, but the Omega Collection is not in first-party development
since the WipEout developer was closed in 2012. The Studio developing the Omega Collection is a
third-party studio.
This also applies to Crash Bandicoot. Its a PlayStation exclusive games series formerly developed by
Naughty Dog. But the developer of the Crash N-sane Trilogy is Vicarious Visions and part of Activision.
This means the N-Sane Trilogy is in third-party development too.
If the developer is not part of Sony in any way its exclusive but not a first-party game regardless of the IP.
Locoroco, Patapon and Rapappa the Rapper remasters are not beeing handled by Japan Studios though. Dave Thach's SpecOps team is the one handling those
It's the same team in charge of the PSN Classics and stuff IIRC.

Thanks for that information!It doesn't matter how you feel on the topic.
Shuhei Yoshida considers games publishers by SIE to be first-party titles.
(FYI: So does Phil Spencer. Those two are bigger names in the video game publishing business than mitverachtung.)
That's not how it works. Games like Heavy Rain, Beyond and Detroit are 1st party IPs as well. R&C and others too, but all are developed by 3rd partys. They are in this thread because they're first party IPs developed by 3rd party partners.
So yes, the WipEout Collection should be listed (in the 2nd post from OP).
Yeah, first party in this case is not about studios really, is about IP. Until Dawn is a SIE first party game IP developed by a third party developer (Supermassive). Some like to call this a ''second party'' deal, even though is not really a thing in this medium
And if you want to go technical enough, you will also find that every game in a situation like this has some SIE internal producers as well, so they would even fit in the ''first party is only if internal Sony teams are working on it'' mentality
Yep, the same team that does the PS2-PS4 stuff

Made a mistake there, okay.
I have only differentiated developers into parties. Not the games. Games were always exclusive or non-exclusive for me.
note: It was never meant that wipeout should not be listed.
I was right with the Crash collection, at least.

I wonder if this is going to be some kind of Mega Man or something completely different Housemarque style (probably the latter).
In any case, whatever Housemarque touches is gold for me.

Sony Santa Monica removed its page from their website and have apparently stepped away from assisting on external first party games, so everyone assumed it was dropped alongside Wattam and Edith Finch. I guess it could've been moved over to another collaboration studio, like Foster City or Japan Studio, but I think we would've heard something about the game in the last year if that were the case.
It isn't even about the IP, as I'm pretty sure Sony doesn't own Spider-Man and that's still a first party game, is it not? What matters in my opinion, is who funds the game and who owns the publishing rights. Even if the IP holder moves on and the sequel is multiplatform (or even exclusive to another system), that doesn't retroactively change the fact that the previous one was first party.
Otherwise I agree.
As for Crash, it's a weird situation. The original releases were first party games, Sony owned (and still owns) the publishing rights to them and that's why they were never ported to any other systems. But I don't know how that works out with the remakes.

I want this to live up to the CG, something like that in 3D would be spectacular.
