The E3 '08 Sony Prediction and Discussion Thread

Wishlist:

1. New Ape Escape
2. Anything from Team Ico
3. New Twisted Metal
4. Ability to customize the looks of the character from Infamous. He looks like a tool.
5. White Knight Chronicles/Story release date

Any source on that or is it just the current discussion going around?

Board discussion and typical release info, word seems to be late October or early November. Remember the arcade version is built on the cell PS3 arcade board, and the console version usually appears a year latter, making the date accurate.
 
wow, looking at that list makes me realize just how many 1st/2nd party dev's sony actually has. Makes me very hopeful for the future.

Just show me GOWIII and Team Ico and I'll be happy.

Indeed. I agree that it seems more likely than a lot of people would think. Let's hope it makes it out this year.
 
PS2 originals announced with Marvel vs Capcom 2 as one of the titles which also supports the PS3 arcade stick.

I don't know where this belongs exactly but has anyone seen that PS3 commercial with the St Crispin's Day speech. Comparing the console wars to the Hundred Years War seems a bit pretentious.

Well Namco did say that the game would hit the ps3 less than a year after it hit arcades, and it hit the Japanese arcades last November.

October seems about right.

I hope we see something from Team ICO.

As am I, but TGS seems more likely.

Either way, we're sure to see something from them over the next three months. It's been two and a half years since Shadow of the Colossus came out, so they have to be ready to show SOMETHING. :D

Nice feature by sony, but bolded part is little worrying....
 
You should have put a June 30 date (embargoed PR leaked) if you wanted to make it credible. I don't think there are companies releasing things on sunday:D
 
If they intended to do a system like that I would hope something like 10,000 points equivalent they would give you a 10% off voucher for a Sony Bravia.

Thats one way toget your whole company as a whole living around the hope of cell architecture as well as the company generating better sales
 
Hrmmm

I predict...

...

more LBP footage, one new exclusive game, 3 third party titles, more resistance footage, more killzone footage, two things involving metal gear, gameplay footage of ffxiii, and kingdom hearts.

am I doing it right?
 
Whatever they do, it needs to be big. They need to come out fucking SWINGING because this is really their last chance to do that with the PS3.

PSP2 would be nice as well.

Same. I wonder if the game will be 60fps and what type of graphical concessions they will have to make .....
Click to expand...


I think they have to keep it at 60fps. I have little doubt that the game will lookas least as good Uncharted and MGS.

The biggest concession they've made is a series staple and isn't likely to change, a fixed camera.
 
Well, Home release date, LBP release date, Motorstorm 2 release date, R2 release date, KZ2 footage with new release date: June 09.

Kaz Hirai in Home with bullshit and jokes.

Old multiplataform trailers

And the shows end...
 
If anything, I hope we get to see Game Republic's next title. I want a Genji 3 with even more giant enemy crabs but this time with a better camera system.

Anything else and you're writing down your dreams or, in some cases, fantasies of what will happen. I follow games, but I'm not quite to the level of writing speculative fan fiction about Sony.
 
Something that's not going to be release 2 or 3 years from now. That last few E3's have been chock full of delays and broken promises. FFS, where the hell is Eyedentify? 3 years later, and the game is nowhere to be seen. So much promise in this beautiful, black box, but too many damn delays. I'm really hoping to see:

WKS
Team ICO's project
GT5 (proper) update
FF13 (lulz)
Naruto (dattebayo)
and Naughty Dog's next project

Fingers crossed, but I'm not holding my breath. PEACE.

I wanna know wtf PLAYLOGIC is doing
Click to expand...

QFT, absolutely. This title could be the longest we've waited for Sony to reveal a project yet. I'm wouldn't be surprised if we're close to the two and a half year mark since the original announcement.

I'm fairly sure that Playlogic released a press release announcing that their Game Factory (IIRC....) studio was doing a second party game for Sony and that Sony were so happy with it they may even consider buying the Game Factory studio!!!!!!

At this point, considering SCEE have already had their special event day for journalists, if the title isn't announced at E3, I think it's fair to assume it's been cancelled.
 
So um, I woke up just now and checked some threads I was reading last night. And to my horror I find that this idea has spread to various sites and gotten people hyped!?

OMFG. what have i started!?

IT WAS A JOKE. A JOKE. I EVEN PUT LOLIWISH.JPG

OMFG!

It's a prediction and discussion thread, I posted it as something I'd like to see Sony do and beat Microsoft to the punch. Shit. If it was real I would've started a new thread! T_T

I'm truly sorry to those of you who took this as fact or got hopeful. But I encourage you to head over to The PlayStation Blog or The PlayStation forums and voice your opinion on the matter. And just maybe, something could happen!

Please do the same for The XBOX 360 if you'd like to see something like that on there as well.

GAF always sets itself up for disappointment. I expect it all around, but it would be really nice to at least see some things.
