Opener is: Horizon Zero Daw 2

Closing: showing the console no price.
Then a teaser for the next event for more information on PS5. State of play.

Does anyone think Sony will flex a little and show/announce a PS5 hardware exclusive title to entice preorders/hype? I would imagine most people are ready to go, but that's coming from an enthusiast's perspective. The casual PS4 owner might want to see that Sony's support for PS4 is still fully committed (from our perspective, we already know it is). I'm curious if everything shown will be supported for both systems to appeal to casual and other eco-system player with PS5 hardware exclusives further down the line.

Sony already said that every single one of the first-party games revealed at the PS5 event will be next-gen only. PS4 support from PlayStation Studios it's over, or you don't remember how they stopped announcing AAA titles three years ago?

It's already been 3 years.........I must have, That's good to know. I guess the last 3 E3s have been pretty lite for Sony and skipping 19' TLoU and Ghost of Tsushima were the last big titles talked about. Just looked and even Marvel's Spiderman came out almost 2 years ago. Getting old sucks.

Knack is almost sure. Demons Soul in other hand... I curious if Horizon Zero Dawn will really get a sequel or maybe a epilogue or presequel IDK for people get more into the dark side of the Zero Dawn project.

Maybe the new IP from ND if the rumors are correct.

They never promised that. They did promise that there will be next-gen only games.

Of course they promised there will be next-gen only games because all of the unannounced console stuff from their studios are next-gen only games.

It is not that hard to realize what they will be doing from now on when it comes to which platforms their upcoming first-party games will release on.

It isn't closer material, SOTC and FF7 Remake were much more demanded yet never were closers when announced.

It will be an actual big exclusive like GOW2/Spider-Man 2.

Opening will be the Console design with a trailer showing the console and a Sony style mashup of quick next gen game bits.
This will go into talking about the current gen games you will have transfer over to PS5 with a few minute trailer showcasing the upgraded versions.

Closing will be Spiderman 2 with some gameplay showcasing a playable Venom.

My take, with the whole roaster :
- opening game : Osiris, a psychnological action thriller game set in ancient egypt, by quantic dream.
- second game : Kenya. A game set in central asia about secret organisation with slaves involved. By asobo studio
- third game : a handrawn 2d platformer. Artists from comics. Spiritual successor to dead cell regarding incredible weapons / ability depth. By housemarque
- fourth game : pacif rim - 2nd festival. The actual 2005 trailer with lush forests. By polyphony digital.
- fith game : the abyss. A game about the first expedition to an unknown planet. Adventure, hazards, strange fauna. By Santa Monica Studios
- final game : Lizards. A child slowly transforming into a lizard and discovering new habilities. By playdead.

What if the console has so cool ass features like the duelsense? Like the one poster said having a wireless charging station on top or just something else maybe its the reason somy hasn't shown the box just yet? Just a thought

Opener: Gran Turismo 7, Knack 3, Astro Bot 2
Mid: HZD2, God of War 2, Spider-Man 2
Closer: Demon's Souls

Encore: And, and you can play PS1 and PS2 games natively (and we're finalizing PS3 games).

Open with WiLD......close with Silent Hill.
They won't open with WiLD of course,I just want to see it early if it's still alive so I don't have to spend the whole show wondering if it's going to show up,lol.

I actually think its more likely they open with a Demon Souls remake and end with HZD2 if you consider that is their new IP they are putting lots of money into vs a remake.

I could be wrong though. Closer could be Silent Hill, new IP, studio acquisition announcement etc. I actually believe they have been delaying it for those last few months, weeks because they've been trying to buy some team, company etc and they wanted a reveal with some megatons... So something is telling me they only want a first reveal, if they can have several things in it and one of them might have been based on negotiations of buying a team.

You couldn't do it with the current political climate cause there would be a misinterpretation... but I'd love some Rammstein to open if Demons Souls is the first game.

Closer... Something nobody expects at all...

Opening: Knack 3

Closing: Knack 4

Seriously? Probably a cold opening with some BLM shit, then closing on Shooty McBeard Man 6 or something.

Why not?

And why Rammstein?

close: Sony purchases rights to metal gear franchise

That would be megaton! I think a purchase is likely regardless. I think they even waited for the purchase to be official before the reveal as to why they were silent for so long on the hill....(hint hint)

Rammstein seems to fit the tone, quite metal, the armor in Souls is quite gothic, like the Maximilian armor from Germany.... and that songs lyrics are about a sadistic relationship which would kinda play on what the Souls games are known for.

I think Horzion Zero Dawn 2 is clearly going to be there de facto game this E3.

So i'm going to go with Dark Souls Remaster opening the show.
Followed by Housemarques new game
Followed by Knack 3
Followed by Godfall
Followed by Gran Tourismo 7
Show a bunch of 3rd party games such as Far Cry 6, the new Batman game,new Crash Bandicoot game,RE 8,FF16(possibly timed)
A few indies
Followed by Silent Hill
Horizon ZeroDawn 2 closing the show as their big tech piece

And last, the reveal of the console and it'll probably be pretty nice looking compared to the XSX. Release date will be revealed, but not the price

Wild Card would be new Ratchet and Clank by Insomniac

I'm gonna guess the opener will be an unannounced exclusive, new IP.

Closer will be God of War 2 or HZD 2.

Unfortunately, that's probably the only way we'll ever get a new AAA MGS game by Kojima Prod. However, I don't think Kojima wants to do anymore MGS games and I think the franchise has ran it's course.

I'd love to see Bluepoint give the orginal MGS the Shadow of Colossus treatment and make it multiplat

I don't disagree with you, simply that it might not even have anything to do with Kojima as much as it has to do with Sony wanting the IP with or without him. As in he could produce, write it, give input etc but I think Sony buying the IP would be a move based on what they want as a company first and foremost. I think even with him moving on to other stuff, he'd 100% give input on a Metal Gear Solid game.

Imagine if you created some massive mega million selling IP, I don't know if you or I'd be able to really 100% walk away lol

We'd give some input, direction, consultation. etc

You can't start a new generation with a remake, so Demon's Souls can't be first.

It has to be top notch. (Knack won't do).

It might have to be a Playstation exclusive.

It will probably not be TLOU2.

So it can only be Rez 2.

Ender will be sth by Kojima.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I've never played DeS, are the mechanics and graphics really even dated?

We need more older games being remade, like when RE2 and 3 were, which reminded me that we need a remake of Onimusha.
