But it's been a generational change and we had an Uncharted game last year on Vita. Give it a rest. TLoU took more than 2 years.

The big surprise needs to be a big surprise.

That Vita game was from Bend. I would venture that Naughty Dog wants to do more Uncharted. Plus, Uncharted 4 goes very well with PS4.

I don't think they have any big surprises. Original IPs aren't surprises, and third party games aren't a big deal.

Eighteen months is plenty to get a next gen teaser together, a lot of people have next-gen games releasing this fall that will have only been two years.
 
What Sony should do is have Tretton or Yoshida or Cerny or someone come out on stage and start by saying that the PS4 is a device built with developer involvement and with consumer ease of use in mind. Then go on to say that it does not require an Internet connection, does not require the PS Eye to be plugged in, uses the cloud just like any modern device, allows used game trading and selling the same as the PS3 (although Sony themselves will be continuing with the Network Pass scheme), will support remote play with the Vita for all titles (except those few which will be PS Eye reliant), and most importantly, has no form of system-wide DRM. Then show the hardware, spend a bit of time talking about its bits and pieces, and then say something like "Now the boring stuff is out of the way, here are the games!" and show *in game* footage for everything. If the footage is not live, be honest and say "this was recorded yesterday, but the game will be available on the show floor for everyone to try". I think at this point absolute honesty is necessary, because we see through bullshit too easily. Then, at the end of the conference - with most time devoted to exclusive software - finish on a megaton, like FFXV exclusive for instance, or the first look at the new Santa Monica game.

It would be epic.
 
I think it's too soon for Uncharted 4...

edit: Nintendo's conference last year, rofl.

Jaffe is probably talking about the Mets game.

It's been 18 months since UC3, that's almost the complete dev cycle of each of the previous games. It's a generational transition so I think there will be some announcement of longer term stuff to build hype for the future of the platform. Even if it's just a proof of concept teaser, I think there's a high possibility of 'here's what Uncharted looks like on PS4'.

Actually The Last of Us took them 3.5 years.

Uncharted 1, 2, 3 1080p60 TrueHD collections. Believe.
 
I dunno, but the opening was mentioned in a lot of reviews as being incredible. I don't think it's particularly spoilerish though to mention.
Okay, fair enough. It's just so many people already own the game + open season spoilers for Game of Thrones and Last of Us everywhere. I'm just on edge.
 
Kaz walks on stage...
The Last Guardian trailer for PS4
comes bundled with every PS4
$299, no DRM, available tomorrow
Kaz flies away aboard Trico
 
So, sometime ago, GopherD said the jaws of 2500 people will dropped followed by Y2Kev's comment about sharing the sentiment based on trust (iirc). BeaverD then goes on to quote Cerny's remark about removing barrier between player and the joy pleh.

What is the one thing that would cause jaws to fall besides the games? If it be a positive news then there are two possible outcomes: Release date or Price.

Oculus Rift, which was hinted at by another Sony exec.

btw guys

On the latest 8-4 Play podcast, they say they've heard of Miyazaki showing his game at E3.

Get hype.

still think it's demons souls 2 or something of that nature. Just speaking logically of course. The whole dark souls 2 situation makes zero sense. So it points to that.

Except the probable lack of widespread adoption given the already existing HD tele and the hardware itself not being packed would nullify such a bold statement (let alone if the Occulus rumour is true, which I am confident is not).

BeaverD? lol

I'm pretty sure gopher was talking about a game.

The other comment was a subtle confirmation of basic online staying free after some confusing posts in the thread that were retracted.
 
Uncharted 2 and 3 both took the same amount of time, and for UC2, they had to build the multiplayer from scratch... Somethings aren't time reliant.
3 clearly needed more time. It was just generally less polished. Not to mention they even said that they later regretted setting a release date a year in advance.

It's going to be the games. The price will be reasonable. So you can expect around 399.99.
 
I'm curious to finally play 3 when it hits PS+ on Tuesday. Uncharted 1 was great, and U2 was amazing.

omg. I just noticed TLG there. wow ahahhaah

Hopefully we don't have to wait 80 so more years for it! I've been excited for it since it was announced.
 
Nah. Predictions are whack.

-Sizzle reel
-Killzone live demo
-Jack Tretton "We love that you love us, gamers!"
-PS4 unveiled
-Devs talk PS4 awesome-ness "OMFG BUY THIS SHIT DAWG"
-Pricing and subscription talk
-Vita
-GAMES GAMES GAMES GAMES
-The Last Guardian
-Kojima demos MGSV
dodges projectiles from the audience for cutting Hayter
-Closing statements
-SURPRISE FINAL FANTASY XV MOTHER FUCKERS

They'll probably talk about DRM details after. No way they'll touch that shit during conference.

TRUTHFACT.
not really
 
Predictions:

  • Hype trailer/montage with some nice music.
  • Talk about the Vita and how they're more committed than ever to the device.
  • Less than 5 minutes of talk on a price drop, another montage plus a few announcements. Vita is not talked about for rest of show.
  • Shuhei takes the stage and few PS3 announcements, focusing on TLoU, GT6 and Beyond but then goes off script and talks about Hatsune Miku: Project Diva F and how he can't wait for it. He keeps going on and on about how much he loves Miku until security takes him away.
  • Jack takes the stage, makes a joke nobody laughs at and after 5 minutes of him being a total dick actually decides to unveil the actual hardware, some more nice music and another montage.
  • Cerny takes the stage and talks about Knack for a while. Confirmed as launch date
  • Introduces his great friend Yu Suzuki who comes on stage to talk about the legacy of Shenmue for all the young whippersnappers who have no clue who this weird looking old guy is. Shenmue 1/2 HD announced as PS4 exclusive. Teaser for 3. 3 never gets released after 1/2 HD bombas.
  • Bungie takes the stage and talks about Destiny with some orgasmic live gameplay.
  • Montage of already announced indie games and how important they are to Sony.
  • Notch shows up and Minecraft announced for both PS4 and Vita (the Vita part not announced until after the show is over).
  • KZ, Infamous, Drive Club announced as launch games.
  • Blake Griffin and some 2K guy take the stage and they play some 2K. Exclusive content blah blah blah.
  • Ready at Dawn's new game. Looks great.
  • PS Home replaed for PS4 with some kind of LBP home crossover, all your content carries over. This will take 15 minutes to announce.
  • The Witcher 3 announced as a PS4 console exclusive. Looks great.
  • Naughty Dog's new PS4 game. It looks amazing, game of the show etc. 2500 jaws drop.
  • MM announces a new LBP game, its F2P.
  • Shuhei having finally escaped security comes back on stage and talks about how games get lost in developer hell but its important to keep sticking with projects if they are worth making. It's rambling and literally makes no sense until the following stuff happens.
  • Ueda takes the stage TLG announced as a PS4 game for 2014.
  • SE announces FF14 is a day 1 PS4 release and then shows off FF15 (which is just Versus) as a PS4 exclusive.
  • Rockstar comes out announced Agent and exclusive next gen GTA5, better graphics and some social features showed off.
  • Jack takes the stage and thanks everybody, lights go out for a few seconds, then come back on, Kaz is on stage and all he says is 299 US dollars and October. Kaz drops the mic.

Clearly this is pretty reasonable.
