Yup! Not a particularly massive world, but open-world nonetheless. I know for sure it didn't have a day/night cycle aaaaand I don't know about weather. I didn't actually play it myself, only watched my roommate for a bit. My guess is no.

I look at Sunset Overdrive as the foundation that they can expand on. Insomniac has their largest team ever on Spider-Man so I wouldn't worry much. They'll deliver.

I just had an amazing idea for a trailer. So with the Crash trilogy remaster, they haven't shown Crash Warped at all. At their E3 press conference, they show a Crash trailer focusing on it, showing off basically the whole game. At the end of the trailer, the original Crash Warped menu screen comes up with a PS1 controller. The controller presses Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, Square.
Boom. Spyro trilogy remaster announced.

According to their website they've got 229 employees ('About this company', about 1/6 of the page down). We know that it's their biggest team ever working on Spider-Man, but I would guess that'll still leave ~80 people free to work on other stuff. Assuming they have some smaller games bring worked on like Song of the Deep and their VR one, that could leave a small pre-production team designing the next Ratchet game. R&C2016 was pretty popular and seemingly successful so I expect Sony will have ordered another.
It could be an event day at their main studio where they invited lots of members of the press to play it ahead of E3?

Photomode as gameplay has to be in there.
hmmm, thats too much on the nose. I still dont think its that
Their FPS efforts are on VR now (RIGS, Farpoint, StarBlood Arena)
They have deals for CoD, Destiny and Battlefront, the biggest FPS's on the market, no need to worry about this genre right now tbh
Probably. The two studios have created games simultaneously in the past. If memory serves correct, they announced both Resistance 3 and Ratchet and Clank: All 4 One on the same day, and released both games in a span of 19 days.
Last year they released 5 games, Ratchet & Clank, Song of the Deep, and 3 Oculus Rift titles.
Since they opened the North Carolina studio in '08, they've seem to have been focusing on a larger AAA title, like Resistance and Sunset Overdrive, out of Burbank, and the R&C titles out of NC. According to their R&C PS4 post mortem, they've been doing some cross-country collaboration.
My Spider-Sense says you don't got to North Carolina to see Spider-Man. I think there's a herring in that red spider suit.
On the other hand, Spider-Man does look very ambitious, and visually stunning, so it may be an all hands on deck situation.
Regardless, a R&C announcement at some point in the not to distant future is pretty much inevitable. I hope we find out something soon, and I hope it's a completely new story.
But, in any case, whatever Insomniac puts out, I'm there Day 1.

if the game is slated for 2019, then maybe it could skip this years E3 Show? However with the Scorpio Focus this Year, i think Sony will go all out and the SP IP should also be there

If Spider-man lacks a really good Photo Mode, you know Insomniac has done fucked up.
I think I said something similar few days ago, minus the DS part.was...BB2, or Spiderman if BB2 is not a thing ,for the opening.
For the closing RDR2, specially if last years rumors were true.
TLOU2 I don't think will be there. ND will want the focus on the dlc and there's also Days Gone, which I think will get another big push, and prolly don't want TLOU2 casting a shadow. So probably will be opening PSX.
I think DS will be there too but in what form? I guess if there was a playable demo it should be deserving of an opening/closing spot...but I think is too early for that. And another CGI tràiler could be frowend upon So mb they'll skip his one and have a playable demo closing psx.
I think we will see Shenmue III at Sony's conference but no way it opens the show. It's a relatively small budget third party game (unlike TLG which was a long gestating first party game) and there are way more likely candidates to open like Spider-Man's first gameplay demo, Bloodborne II if it's happening or Destiny 2 since Sony opened with Destiny 1 in the year it came out (among other reasons they'd open with Destiny 2).

Yeah, it's really a shame that Ratchet and Clank doesn't have one...
I just want him to hang upside down in the rain and do a romantic kiss without somehow choking from all the water going into his mouth and nose.

They both did at one point or another. Uncharted 3 and TLoU were primarily developed by two teams. And Santa Monica has had God of War (PS4) going for around 5 years, concurrent with Stig's cancelled IP.
With development times ballooning from 2-3 years to often times 5+ years, I'd love to see 2 team studios. The PS4 has had a handful of great games, but they've been a lot slower to come.
In the PS3s first 5 years we had 3 Uncharteds, 3 Resistances, 3 Ratchet & Clanks, 2 InFamouses (InFami? - I'm not sure what the plural is.), 2 LittleBigPlanets, and 2 Killzones. By the five year mark of the PS4, we will have 2 Knacks (as well as 2 IPs from Guerrilla, hopefully 2 IPs from Sucker Punch, and maybe a few more surprises) But I think we may be seeing the end of trilogies fitting within a console cycle, which I always thought was a great release structure.
I think with rising development costs, it might not be as easy to have two teams as it was in previous generations, but I'd certainly like to see more games in general being released more frequently.

What if it's too obvious because he wants you to think it's too obvious? Huh?
Seriously though, with how successful R&C 2016 was, a new R&C seems obvious but I hope they up the production values on it, with a larger team and more time. I loved R&C 2016 but I can understand the complaints over the recycled weapons, worlds and so on.
Screw the people who complained about the story though. Ratchet was a total asshole in the original R&C, making him likeable was the best thing about the remake.
That seemed like the plan a few years ago but it seems to have been dropped after the troubles Uncharted 4 and SSM's new IP encountered. Naughty Dog have already said a couple of times that they're sticking with their current 1.25 team structure (one game in full production and a second game in pre-production). Guerrilla's KZ Shadow Fall creative team seem to have been merged into the Horizon team. And we haven't heard of anything from SSM post-cancellation and layoffs, outside of the ex-dev team leaving the studio.
Saving this post. You will be ashamed of your words and deeds.
Sony doesn't really open with third party stuff, do they?
I could see Shenmue III being a lengthy mid-conference reintroduction trailer with either a release date, or a new release window. I don't see a stage demo though, it's just not that type of game unless they want to spoil the more intensive action sequences towards the climax of the game.

Give Bruce Straley his own studio
So is this the E3 we see Ape Escape 4?
Does anyone remember the year of the Monkey tweet 1.5 years ago?
https://twitter.com/PlayStation_jp/status/684215261319200768/photo/1
...Or did they can the game and work on Knack 2 instead?

He's been on leave and apparently is now back & part of the .25 pre-production team IIRC from various reported tweets...

Assuming he went on sabbatical shortly after Uncharted 4 went gold, it's been over a year. How long did you think he was going to take off?
Shoot, I wasn't thinking it's already been a year since Uncharted came out.
Man, time sure fuckin' flies...

He might be helming their next IP, which should come out on the PS5...unless this generation proves to be longer than anyone would have anticipated.
I think it will be in the middle of the conference. The game doesn't have that much of a hype anymore and something like FF7R would be a treat to see first. I expect S3 to fail or to not do so well because a lot of people over estimate how popular the franchise is.
Suckerpunch's new game or an extended play of TLOU or Detroit would suffice. Plus, I think Days Gone needs as much help, so I think that will be the game Sony shows off first.

If he is, I hope they tackle a sci-fi setting. Hint hint.
In all honesty though, what do you guys think ND would make after TLoU2?
It can't be anything but a brand new IP right? Even so... I literally have no clue on what new game they could tackle next. Will it be a third-person action/adventure game or a TLoU styled survival horror game or a combination of both or will they give us a Sci-Fi space epic?
WHAT COULD NAUGHTY GODS DO NEXT?!

A GTA styled adventure would be nice. Also, I'm down for a Assassin Creed (actual stealth this time) styled game but with a strong emphasis on the story.
Days Gone will open the conference with a madness.
I have a strong feeling that Bend are going to blow the conference wide open to start, the crazy gameplay options they've hinted at allow for this.
You're speculating PS5 games now haha.
I'd like to see them tackle something fantasy or sci-fi next.
A game that allows for a less realistic settings and gameplay but still gives that cinematic "grounded" ND storytelling.
Third person game of course.

How about a licensed James Bond game? Obviously it won't tie in with the movies since Naughty Dog shouldn't be rushed, but how would that fare? A third-person game with gadgets, crazy set-pieces and maybe an RPG element? Not too insane like full-fledged RPG games but more in line with Horizon?
I don't know, I'm just throwing ideas around and yes, this will mostly end up a PS5 game.

Can't go wrong with that price, game is hugely improved from the original and has a lot of content. Plus it got a free story DLC in march.
Idk but I want it to be something out of their comfort zone. Like Fallout. Something with a lot of narrative agency.
I'd like ND to stay far away from licensed stuff personally.
It will restrict their creative juices way too much.

I doubt it, the first game wasn't much of a success and didn't get a good response on here either. I think that investment is going in to Knack 2.Would absolutely LOVE to see Bloodborne 2 announcement at E3. It's got to be in development, right?!
