Well damn lol.
Sony Gamescom Press Conference Thread: Let Us Dream
- Thread starter dragonbane
- Start date
Well damn lol.
It was a nice conference in my opinion. Nothing amazing but a lot of nice little things.
Some of the Vita announcements were great. Now I'm seriously considering getting one.
Plus Rime, Shadow Of The Beast and Everybody's Gone to the Rapture seemed very interesting with lots of potential.
Twitch support was also nice.

This conference was a disgusting betrayal. Nothing I hoped would be shown was actually shown and instead they are showing CGI footage are quick flashes of games I could care less about. This was easily the worst conference I have ever seen in my life. I felt sick watching it and knowing I put down money for this system.

Great conference, many games were shown and famousmortimer was right, biggest first-party studios weren't here.
I'm still disappointed of the lack of a AAA Vita game, like whatever Sony Bend is doing, and also PS4 is not realising late october like cboat said

The hyperbole is so rich in this.
33 launch titles and tons of console debuts on PS4/3/Vita. They brought more games than I even anticipated. I didn't even have a clue about Starbound and Minecraft coming to PS4.
Horrible Conference. Way to much bs talk could have done the presentation in at least 1 hour. And that camera guy pls stop pressing buttons random audience shots when there is no light at all. ohh here are some games we announced at e3. positive news Vita price drop and memory cards cheaper. Only game i saw that i am interested in is Tearaway My vita is ready. but overall shit presentation. Don't know how they say it is created for gamers more then Hideki Kamiya announced the release dat of w101 in the last nintendo direct.

It was alright, good announcements but maybe not necessary to stream it.
This might be the worst post I've seen on any gaming forum...
Twas nice knowing you.

That was easily one of the worst conferences I've ever seen. My interest in the PS4 has taken a significant hit.
Now I understand what it must be like to play COD on the 360

The conference was kind of disappointing.
- We already knew about the PS3 price drop
- We already knew about the Vita price drop and it's already available before today
- Not as much Vita support as I was expecting. Borderlands 2 was the only big thing, but I was hoping for a few more big titles to be announced to show strong support for the Vita
- Too much emphasis on indie games and smaller games throughout the entire conference. I'm glad Sony supports them, but there was just too much dedication to them today and no new major game announcements. I'm glad they support them but when you start dropping names and titles, and you get no reaction, it kind of shows where indie games fall in the scope of things.
I'm very underwhelmed with what was announced today.

All of their conference this year were great.
My takes.
-Plenty of unknown devs working on bigger PS4 titles. Rime, SOB, Rapture game, etc. I really liked what I saw.
-They said all of their 14 studios are working on PS4, I guess that includes Sony BEND
-SSM, ND, MM, and a few others have yet to show their PS4 games (WOW)
-They had another great show by still saving the big guns.
Well done Sony.
O and camera producer is an asshole

First:
Gaf gotta fix this shit.
second, thought it was a decent conference but not great. Rime looks sweet but I was hoping for new, more impressive Driveclub footage and maybe something more from The ORder or mor than just a namedrop of Naughty Dog. Guess I gotta wait for all that.

Wow those jabs at MS. Sony saying they have had an unchanging plan since the reveal unlike others and mentioning they will launch in 30 something countries this year.
After the first quote the crowd went "Ooooooooh." It was actually pretty funny.

That conference was a complete joke. Easily one of the worst I've ever seen from Sony.
They spent like 40 minutes on indie shit alone and also mixed in way too much ps3 and Vita stuff (by the way I need to sell that useless handheld, if only a store would give me more than $50 for it). Then they didn't bother announcing any major new ps4 games. What a complete waste of my time.

Who the hell was in charge of the camera switching? My god it was so bad.
For a gamescom conference I thought the announcements and content were actually way better than I expected.
Were some people expecting an E3 level kind of event? :lol

I can't believe some are saying this after all those games shown coming to PS3/4/Vita. I knew it would come to those discrediting the show because of the indies. I am anticipating more indies on Xbone/PS4/PC than retail games. Feels good to be a gamer right now.
Overall i gotta say it was a bit disappointing conference. Didn't expect that big of an indie focus. I would have wanted to see more bigger games but you can't have everything i guess.
Also those damn americans are getting the PS4 first even though EU is the best playstation market!
At least there were a couple cool games announced for my tastes though:
Borderlands Vita
Everybody's Gone To The Rapture
Shadow of the Beast
Helldivers
N++
Velocity 2X

i was following along the live blog on polygon, and they said something off handed about vita remote play being support for every game, but needing to be implemented by the dev.....which runs in contrast to what sony has said so far (that i have seen).
was there any truth to this or was this just poor transcribing on polygon's part?

What announcements? The only thing new I heard was PS4 release date, a bunch of indies no one cares about, Vita price drop and Vita can remote play 99% of PS4 games, , and that was it.
The rest was all things we had heard or saw before. Gran Turismo, Infamous, Killzone, Watch Dog, AC: Black Flag. And they didnt even bother showing us any new demo's for these games.
An absolute disappointment. Famousmortimer, you were 100% right.
Most of the new ps4 games they showed were indie titles. Damn, I was looking forward to this because of the thought that there would be awesome new (AAA) games shown, but alas, we got nothing AND a later than expected (cboat leak) release date.
Disappointed.

I think apple's post is sarcasm.
Was better than I expected. I thought they'd just show the E3 stuff again but they actually announced new things. Unfortunately the only 2 things that interested me were Morisaki Baby and Rime. But hearing the Shadow of the Beast remake was very surprising. That game had an incredible soundtrack:

Maybe it was a bit over the top but my general point was not sarcasm. I am not buying a PS4 for indie games. In fact, I almost could care less about indie games. I'm buying a console for the AAA experience and right now I feel Microsoft is the company that seems to be focused on providing those titles. Sony needs to start keeping indie developers are arms length because they are ruining their conferences. I want AAA games Sony, GIVE THEM TO ME.

Very very disappointing. Just focused on indies and no new bigger titles. I am surprised xbox had a better showing, did not expect that.

I like seeing all the indie games, but I wish they dropped more bombs about PS3, Nov release is disappointing.

Anyone get a GIF of that awful camera work in the first minute of the show? That was some epic-ly bad zooming in and out.
Honestly, those indie titles looked worlds better than the "AAA" stuff coming out. Also, Sony's conference had variety. Xbox is all sequels, shooters and brawlers.
