I actually like Uncharted 2, 3, 4, and The Last of Us.
But it's the self-centered nature of the trailer and its direction.
The Last of Us Part 2 and the direction of the franchise left me with a bad taste in my mouth.
And it's directed by that jerk Druckmann.
I've lost interest, especially when there are games like Phantom Blade, GTA VI, or Pragmata.
There's no point in me buying those two pieces of garbage when good games will be coming out in 2026 and at the same price.

3rd party games is my big reason I keep my PS5 around....Sony themselves stopped making games that enjoy.

Your choice, I just think it's WAAAAAAY too early to judge Intergalactic.
(I also don't see this self centered nature that you speak of. It's just a bounty hunter talking to her 'agent' about a character she really want to capture and nothing is going to stop her, we don't have much backstory yet other than it looks like at some point he double crossed the criminal team she was with at some point (Five Aces)). But again, if it irks you then fair enough I guess, all I see is one of the greatest realtime rendered scenes I have ever seen from a graphics/fidelity/animation standpoint, and the audio/music is amazing also (opening Rezor\Addicus Ross music that is, not Pet Shop Boys), also love the retro future styling they have going on and callbacks to 80's sci-fi such as branding and lots of neon and CRT monitors.
Maybe you've made your mind up this early, but I'd personally wait and see (on both games maybe, but I think Intergalactic has a better chance of being the better game)

not so much hyped, as curious. as in, can the sony heavy-hitters turn things around & return to making clever, fun, imaginative games?...

You just don't know it yet...
There will surely be a dead boyfriend/girlfriend/alienfriend/pet/whatever to trigger emotions on the player. Sony can't resist that.

This is Naughty Dog. When it comes to story, they are the trendsetters. Everyone started putting those plot devices in their games after ND did it. Now they've moved on to the next thing.

Unless there's a major revamp coming for Wolverine, then I'm not that interested in it. His design makes him look like a toothpick and the supposed story leak details how he'll get sidelined by the end of it. That's gonna be a no from me, dawg.
Regarding Intergalatic, I have to see more. But, the initial impression doesn't bode well. Especially, with an unfiltered Druckmann steering the wheel.

This is immersion breaking if the story pretends to be serious. It only works with comedies like GotG or Scary Movie.
Also, I'm a bit fedup with nostalgia bait. I got the feeling that Druckmann is thinking too high of himself and that's never a good sign. Kojima at least have very original ideas. Neil Druckmann doesn't. He's good at iterating, nothing more.

… You think that Naughty Dog came up with revenge as a storytelling mechanism…?
I mean I guess you are right, Odyssey is not that old in Galactic years.

With devs only wanting to work 5 hours a week these days, and having to quadruple check every single thing you do 100x times for microagressions and such, I wouldnt expect either until ~2030.

A sizeable chunk of the creative leads on Wolverine have left the project and/or the studio since the leak. I think it's taking so long because there's big shift in direction. At least, I hope so.
If they've cancelled the Venom game, which does seem evident at this point, they're definitely all hands on trying to bring Wolverine to a better position.
Intergalactic is 2027, which is fucking insane. Wolverine is either late 2026 or early '27.

The game looks terrible. I was excited but that leaked killed it. No thanks keep your uggo Jean Grey and milk warm ass Wolverine.

Hopefully Intergalactic comes out much much much later than March 2026, like March 20never.
I'm hoping that Insomniac realizes that they fucked up Spiderman 2 and will reel it in a little, but won't know until it is out.

Spiderman 2 was horrible with or without the messaging. it was just a badly designed game from start to finish

Intergalactic will be 2027 and cross gen.
Sony has confirmed that Marvel's Wolverine and Intergalactic won't launch this fiscal year. This year's Business Segment Presentation and Fireside Chat listed both titles under "Upcoming" for its annual tentpole single-player releases.
Sucker Punch Productions' Ghost of Yōtei and Kojima Productions' Death Stranding 2: On the Beach are listed as this year's major releases, both launching before March 31st, 2026. Granted, it doesn't outright confirm when Intergalactic or Marvel's Wolverine will launch, so even launching in fiscal year 2027 isn't a guarantee.

I really wish Sucker Punch would have gotten Spider-man instead of Insomniac. Been playing Infamous again lately and they were so much better at the super hero game. Better game dev all around than Insomniac, imo.

Oh yes the modern wolverine comics, I dont consider it part of the canon, but more of just following the trend of pushing and forcing woke agenda when it first started. Im always fan of the " real " OG comic.pray for Hércules not be in the game.

If they start making PS6 exclusives right off the bat instead of making them cross-gen with PS5 I'll be pretty pissed off. There have been so little games this gen and I really want to be able to use my PS5 several more years. And yeah, I'll be going the Nintendo way too as I feel like it'll at least have a steady output of exclusives and fun games.
i would never imagine a Playstation gen with so little games, Sony killed playstation this gen for me, PC + Nintendo is the way to go now on.

This. And, once again, let me underline to some folks: you do not want this guy being a head of a studio or yet manage and lead Sony's WWS roster. Anyone who is thinking this right now is ludicrous. He's even self admitted he carries some hubris, and seemingly thinks that's "okay", which is a recipe for disaster.
I have a hunch mainstream reviewers will probably butter him up with Intergalatic, but the larger user reaction may become mixed again. If so, whoever picked him as president of ND will have to start making some serious deep reflection on whether or not they chased the actual talent out of the studio.

With PS5 now a baseline I can't see any reason to make a PS6 exclusive title. Obviously that doesn't mean there won't be any, but I would be surprised if a developer has a mechanic or fidelity that can't be ported to PS5 beyond ray tracing that is simply impossible on the PS5.

Lol right.
Intergalactic is a 2027 game, possibly even 2028 - similar to how ND's previous games launched on the same year as the next console.
Wolverine may be a 26 title.

Naughty Dog released plenty of games many years before a new console gen.

internal documents suggested that the game was tentatively planned for a Fall 2024 release

As a fan of sci-fi, I'd say you are very wrong. Watch Alien/Aliens, 2001, Blade Runner, Total Recall, Event horizon, Fifth Element, Star Trek, and heck, even Star Wars, those arent immersion breaking (certainly not for me anyway) and are some of the best space Sci Fi ever made. The whole point of the game is that its supposed to be an alternate timeline where we have interstellar travel by the 80's, and LOADS of films used product placement (serious and comedy) in the 80's so its styled around that, it seems to heavily lean on Akira (product placement, light trails etc).

Swap Intergalactic with Saros and this is probably accurate.
I wholeheartedly agree with you. With them porting their first party games to PC and cross platform multiplayer, there really is no reason to play on the PlayStation.

I'm curious how they'll actually manage to make the Wolverine of all people woke. The guy is recognised by his excess testosterone!
As for interwokelactic. I expect little.
Regardless, I gave up on Playstation and currently migrating to Steam, so I don't expect to play them until 2027.

That's actually the thing that interests me the most about the game. I'm sure i won't be disappointed.

Sure, Yotei, DS2, Marathon, Saros, Marvel Tokon, Astro Bot, Helldivers 2, Spider-Man 2 and all the other ones don't exist.Sony first party studio output...
I'd say the plan is:
- Wolverine: October 2026
- Intergalactic: October 2027
Since this time it would be too extreme to make the main character non-male, non-white, non-heterosexual:
- Additional playable protagonist that is an ugly and adroginous female. Being LGBT or non-white gives extra DEI points
- All the other sidekicks / good guys / ally NPCs to be female, ugly and androginous, non-white or LGBT, even if weren't that in the comics
- All -or almost- main bad guys to be white / heterosexual / males
- Some cutscene or dialog showing or telling that a white heterosexual male (extra DEI points if it's a father) being violent / abusive / sexist / racist / homophobic
- Some cutscene or dialog showing an 'a-ha' scene where female / non-white / LGTB character prove to be smarter / stronger / more capable than a male / white / heterosexual character

If you think Sony's first party studios output is great then that's perfectly fine. I don't. Leaving it at that.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
5 of those games aren't out yet. 2 don't even have a date. 1 is heavily being wished to be canceled or delayed by almost everyone.
Not sure what to say but that's not exactly a slam dunk.

I didn't make a complete list of upcoming games or released in recent years because it's super huge and I'm tired now. Edit: almost complete (not updated) complete list
Regarding the upcoming games I listed, all of them have have date and release this or next year.
And well Sony doesn't cancel games because you wishes so. Hermen the other day was pretty confident saying they'll release it this FY, but I think it's possible they'll release it.
They broke 1st party sales records with new games released in 4 of the last 5 years. They also made the games that got the biggest amount of GOTY awards of the years 2024, 2020, 2019 and 2018 (plus many other games that got several awards or nominations). And for most of their teams (including 2nd party / externally developed 1st party ones), their most successful game ever is the most recent one.
They are doing a great work with first party, and this is why Hermen got promoted.
