Support NeoGAF

[ManaByte]

 

[Birdo]

Now is the best time. People want cheering up :/

 

[Coolwhhip]

Groan.

 

[Starcheif]

Dang that's shocking.

Show us your best mad Gif

 

[kretos]

You mother fuckers sons of bitches

 

[Mossybrew]

This is some stupid bullshit right here.

 

[HerjansEagleFeeder]

I refuse to believe this shit. They gotta be kidding us. Who's in charge there?!

 

[TTOOLL]

Let looters be heard.


Edit: just to clarify, I totally support peaceful protests and what happened to Floyd deservers a lot of them.

 

[Coolwhhip]

I mean I get why they are doing it. Not because Sony cares so much about this protest shit. But because the news will barely pick up PS5 because of it. So it's a marketing decision disguised as some moral choice.

 

[NOLA_Gaffer]

Absolutely the right thing to do. Good on Sony for being considerate.

 

[Manwithoutfear]

wow
i really don't have words.

 

[NeoIkaruGAF]

This... is real?

Ooooh, the "everything is political" VS "keep politics outta muh games" battle is gonna be LIT.

*grabs popcorn*

 

[SpiceRacz]

God fucking damnit. This is the only thing I was looking forward to this week.

 

[Shantae]

I'm hearing their voices all the fucking time, and I'm tired of it. I'd rather hear about games. My life is not on standstill because of the shit going on, I'm still working, I'm still living with the stresses of my life. Video games give me relief from that stress, fuck off with this shit.

 

[Psykodad]

I'm okay with it, but it's completely unnecessary.

 

[Andrew Korenchkin]

Damn, I was really looking forward to this.

 

[scydrex]

Damn... seriously? Come on... Then delay the PS5 for next year. So we only have seen the Dualsense and they will reveal the console in August maybe?

 

[HorcaCZ]

fuck

the great blue-balling continues

 

[orosballs]

pretty dumb but come on...they pretty much did the same thing with TLOU2....sony is bitching out.

 

[Pyramid Song]

Thanks murica

 

[iJudged]

OH COME ONNNNN

 

[Ar¢tos]

the money they spent on TV ads went down the drain...

 

[Honey Bunny]

Switch it is.

 

[kretos]

I hope one of your stores gets looted Sony

 

[Cert.in.Death]

That's out of left field.

For those wondering, though it's not stated directly, this appears to be referencing the civil unrest caused by the recent death of George Floyd after an encounter with Minnesota police officers.

 

[Northeastmonk]

They want to come off as being sincere and understanding. If their target was the entire world. They wouldn't have a second to announce anything.

No shit?

 

[JTCx]

Dammit sony!

 

[JLMC469]

There are bigger more important things happening in the world right now.

Hats off to SONY.

 

[Hendrick's]

Must have been worried about the crazy hype vs. what they were actually planning to show.

 

[Corpsepyre]

I suppose all the events this week will be axed. Wasn't IGN having a showing soon?

Oh well, next time then. We'll get our games.

 

[Radical Dreamer]

Thanks, America.

 

[The Infectious Paradox]

Who was it that said they guaranteed it wouldn't happen? Come eat your crow

 

[HE1NZ]

Pfff. Preorder cancelled.

 

[Rolla]

It's a smart move.

 

[HotPocket69]

Wild times we're in right now holy shit

 

[chinoXL]

just checked Twitter and from the official PlayStation a account they posted this...i get it but damn i was hype for this

 

[Hero Of Gallowmere]

How brave and progressive of them to not push the "Publish video" button.

 

[S77]

Fucking America, why the fuck does an event that showcases a japanese console and its games getting postponed because there are fucking riots in burgerland, this makes no fucking sense.

 

[jackets with pockets]

Really disappointed in Sony.

The USA is not the whole world.

EDIT:

 

[Bladed Thesis]

Wow, was not expecting this.

 

[Dodkrake]

Just want to say, fuck the US.

Nobody told them to elect a non functional racist idiot.

Uh, no one's stopping you from playing your video games, mate. The world's not going to end if an online video is delayed a little.

 

[Coolwhhip]

 

[Jack Videogames]

Fucking stupid virtue signaling fuck

 

[SaucyJack]

edit

whilst I understand why they'd do this, it is incredibly frustrating. Not a happy camper this evening.

 

[Droxcy]

When people are in a time of need for some positivity they do this. Amongst all the riots and people in disarray this would've brightened up some folks lives.

Yes there is a bigger issue going on currently but still the constant delays and shit are killing the hype for this machine for me.

 

[ZeroZeroQuatre]

 

[HE1NZ]

Oh well. C&C Remaster is just day later.

 

[Bitmap Frogs]

Fucking cowards.
