Really good State of Play, but there are still SO many questions regarding stuff going on behind the scenes @ PS Studios.

FairsGames
Marathon
Corey game
Wolverine

Need status updates badly.
 
Shockingly A.....They actually are making a game I care about (Marvel Tokon) and an arcade stick I'll buy as long as it isn't trash

I haven't been interested in anything PlayStation first party since the PS3 days so this is the best show they've had in years in my book
 
solid show. Couple games I'll for sure get and a handful more that I'll keep an eye on.

That said, nothing really compelling me to keep my ps5. Everything I want is probably a PC or Switch 2 buy.
 
Since Ms releases games on ps, I am more excited for their show. And I am saying this as a playstation fan. Years of shitshows by Sony really got me mad.

Imagine having paid like 800 bucks for a PS5 Pro at this point.

There's PC gamers who cream themselves over upgrading there parts every year for barely any performance benefit so i don't see how a 800 dollar ps5 pro 'which was made for the hardcore gamers' is hurting anybody nor a waste of money for the hardcore audience.

D: thanks to Nioh 3 and some other stuff, Tokon doesn't look bad and Nathan Bond 007 game looks decent, tho something is off

C: if I count MK collection and og RE2 and Nemesis 🤷‍♂️
 
C.
Not great, not terrible.
In terms of announcements only Nioh 3 was really exciting to me. But overall they showed a bunch of games that looks like they could be fun: Pragmata, Bloodstained, 007, Sea of Remnants, etc.
 
Lots of games I'm interested in. Solid B, because only downside was there wasn't a big game announced from one of Sony's western studios (insomniac). No RE9 either. But it was good stuff for the most part.
 
I gave it an E for effort. Some things looked better than others, but there was nothing in the show that I felt like paying for. I'm interested in Pragmata and 007 First Light, but I need to see more.
 
it was cool I would say a C for me. It's good knowing that 95 percent of the games they showed will be on PC.

Bloodstained 2 & Nioh 3 were nice surprises!!
Rest was trash other than RE2 & RE3 for PSN.
MGS3 & Ghost2 was unnecessary

Nioh 3 was a very pleasant suprise! Downloading the demo now.
Romeo is a dead man looked cool (and the level of cringe from the Grashopper dude was epic). And the new silent hill looks great.
A decent showcase. D + / C -
 
S+, all I wanted was Final Fantasy Tactics that's not on ios. Nioh 3 looks very good. Marvel Tokon was just icing on the cake.

Felt like a part of the Summer Game Fest more than a Sony showcase, the only first party stuff was a message saying they'd show Yotei in a month?

C -, and that is me really trying to be generous.

Game of the show was Romeo is Dead. Suda has never had great gameplay but it was the best trailer, looked fresh and fun and was a good reveal. 2nd best game was Bond. Doesnt look like it reinvents the wheel but seems like a fun, polished Splinter Cell Conviction with more spectacle moments. I'm in.

Pragmata looked awful. Hope it has a better showing next time. Looks like a buy at $30 game, but its early. Hope to see more to sell me on it.

FFT was a giant wet fart. Looks like a basic port with some smoothing out. Will be good if its cheap. It won't be.

Journey 2 looks okay. Forgettable but pretty.

Anytime a PS employee spoke I wanted to put a gun to my head. You wonder why their communications suck? Those 3. Ending on a trash anime Marvel game was the biggest joke ever, besides their Ghost of Yotei BS.

Nioh 3 looks pretty safe. But it'll be good. I am literally a giant Nioh 1 and 2 fan and I felt the trailer was boring. Just going on trust it'll deliver. Demo is great.

Silent Hill f was meh to me. Might be okay on sale. Metal Gear 3 looks like it went backwards 4 generations graphically.

Thats it. None of the indie games looked great in this showing. Bloodstained 2 is a day 1 for me but it honestly looks bad. Will buy because of the 1st game.

That's some pretty harsh comments there.

If they showed Hellblade 2 would it have made it an A?
 
Not bad at all. Stuff to pique my curiosity. Even that Sea of whatever game was curious, and 007 which I normally couldn't give a shit about.

They should have shown it. Getting a port soon and better than most of the stuff here. But no it can't carry a showcase and its a year old game. Starfield reveal would have also helped. Those would likely be the best things shown and they're just ports. Starfield is like a game from another planet in the far future compared to most of this and Hellblade is still easily the best looking game ever released. Not even close.

I went with B solely for the fact that they didn't show any Sony first party projects (that GaaS initiative must have really fucked with their plans), the rumoured GOW Metroidvania game would have been nice as would RE9.

Anyway, lots of interesting stuff, i loved Pragmata since its 1st showing, Romeo is dead - I'm in for whatever Suda51 does (shit looked amazeballs in the literal sense), Silent hill F looked really nice, Nioh 3 was there, MGS3 Delta was there, FF tactics, Pirate game looked really nice, a new Thief game (although VR), Yotei looks nice and the new Mahvel by arc systems looked glorious (and i HATE Marvel shit).
Journey 2 looked beautiful and will also be "free" for PS plus users.

How the fuck can anyone not like even a couple of those titles shown I can't understand, or rather, I can since the trolling from the usual and until today dormant "I switched to PC®" troll accounts was in full effect yet again.

This was literally one of the best SOPs of the last few months but muhfuggas just have to keep whining I suppose...

They have no first party to show unless they start showing stuff intended to release in 2027-8.

Only media molecule and Insomniac (with Wolverine) seem to be MIA
 
D. Other than GoY, there are only a few i will eventually pick up. In a few years. But I am no rush to get them.

Maybe they will show the Western third party games later this year.

Those announcements are due.
