I'm pretty sure it won't be 20 new AAA exclusives anounced, those 20 experiences probably are:

-4 or 5 new exclusives for the PS3
-4 or 5 new exclusives for the PSV
-gameplay and release for The Last of US
-hands on and release date for The Last Guardian
-maybe info/footage of Agent and FFV13
-full reveals wth gameplay for LBP karting, GOW ascencion, Battle Royale (let's call it that)
-a couple of PSN game like Journey

If this were all on one platform I would say PS4 launch titles. As the platform itself would give every game a new experience. That or some type of new Move/Kinect like device for gamers.

Out of this 20 though even for PSVita/PS3 that seems rather high count. Unless a few PS4 titles are in the mix. I remember when PS3 was announced we saw like 8+ new game CGI trailers. Just saying. Some were just vapor, but others have made outstanding success. I can't wait for KILLZONE 4 PS4 CGI trailer. :P

While Sony talks about games and more games, others talk about sales and how their competition isnt good enough when Sony is clearly supplying its core fans mostly with software while also catering to casuals and others.

I laugh when I hear or see people try to disrespect Sony when they are obviously the best game company in the world. They don't rely on a handful of ip's like Nintendo, they actually keep making new games and continue story-lines of others. Think of a genre of gaming and Sony has an exclusive title that fits it.

When Nintendo fans think about a new Nintendo system, they are thinking of playing the same handful of ips that Nintendo has been making for years and that is ok. When xbox fans think of a new xbox its the same , thinking of a handful of games. When majority of Sony fans think of a new Sony gaming system, they think of a lot of new ips and sequels to many Sony ips and not just a handful.

Amen. Sony are not afraid to take risks either, they always support different innovative games (Heavy rain, Little Big planet, Journey). People always say Nintendo are the innovators, but it looks to me that its mainly Sony thats pushing new ideas forward.

vvv
LBP is original, what other racing game can you create your own track, kart, and character other than modnation racers (Another PS3 exclusive).
Move & All stars - I'll give you them
And as for Trails games & trophies now you're just running out of things to come up with arnt you?
You've completed ignored my point and just pointed out the two things that Sony has copied
in the last 6 years, without pointing out any of the dozons of brilliant original games that have come from them.

Sorry to burst your bubble Akuma, but Microsoft pretty much abandoned most of their franchises from last gen with the exception of just a select few (Halo, PGR, Fable, Forza - the last two actually appearing only near the end of the console generation).

Just a reminder about some of the new IPs Microsoft published this generation:
- Gears of War
- Mass Effect
- Kameo
- Viva Pinata
- Blue Dragon
- Lost Oddysey
- Too Human
- Alan Wake
- Shadowrun
- Ninja Blade
- Crackdown
This is over 10 new IPs for this generation just from the top of my head, and I'm excluding some older franchises that didn't even make an appearance last gen so Xbox owners probably weren't expecting them (Banjo, Perfect Dark), excluding Kinect games and some causal crap, and excluding Arcade games because if we include new IPs on XBLA there isn't even a competition.

True, some of these games weren't very good, but others became some of the most critically acclaimed series this gen. It's a risky business after all and no publisher manages to nail all of their games.
I assume your ignorance comes from owning just a single console both this gen and last gen. Otherwise you would have probably been more familiar with what games were available on other platforms last gen and what games are available now.

I assume that next gen will be the same: a few select franchises will carry over while the rest will be abandoned, and new experiences will be introduced. But until we hear about them announced, we can only expect the things we are familiar with. This is regardless of which console you own. It's probably just like owners of the PS2 were expecting to see on the PS3 new iterations of games like God of War, Gran Turismo, Metal Gear, Killzone etc. - that's just how things work.

#ShinMaster
His comment about MS VS Sony WAS just about new IPs:
"When xbox fans think of a new xbox its the same , thinking of a handful of games"
VS
"When majority of Sony fans think of a new Sony gaming system, they think of a lot of new ips and sequels to many Sony ips"

And this is obviously not true, and the IPs I listed just prove this point. Besides, I'd like to hear any fan saying that they're only looking forward for the same handful number of games assuming they know about other games.

Lol people read too much into things like this. Yeah there will probably be over 20 new games shown but I bet most will be Vita games, some will be move games and some will be PS3 games and the PS3 games will consist of games already announced like LBP Kart, Sony Smash Bros, GOW:A and probably 1 or 2 other surprise announcements.

"Triple shot of excitement." I'm guessing more PS3 & Vita games, then PlayStation Suite news as the chaser. As for PS Move, I've pretty much given up hope at this point.

The Amazing Spiderman and Bioshock Infinite are confirmed to have Move support. Infamous 3 and RE6 are likely to follow suit.

I expect the Last of Us to have it. It seems tailor made for Move(using Move to shoot a gun or swing a pipe).

Don't know what the hell ND's problem is. They keep making excuses for not putting Move in the game by saying they don't want to "tack it on". Well...why not just do it right for the fans who want the option to use a great piece of hardware?

Infamous 2/Socom proved that Move works well with TPS games. As I said, don't know what the hell ND's issue with Move is.

^^Check out 1:47, look how agitated they get when they're asked to justify why they can't implement Move into their games.

@MistaDonzie
What do you mean "already"? If it were announced this year and came out next year, you'd notice a development pattern that occurs for many other games. There were two years between Gears 1 and Gears 2, two years between GoW 1 and 2, 2 years between each Uncharted game, two years between F3 and FNV, two years between Rainbow Six Vegas and RSV2, two years between inFAMOUS 1 and inFAMOUS 2...

So, uh, this isn't abnormal or anything.

My fellow Sony gamers, once again Sony Corporation will show why it is the preferred provider of games for the traditional, hard core gamer. Those who have enjoyed and played high-quality Sony products know that Sony will continue the tradition of delivering games of the highest caliber while the rest of the world wither away with their unhealthy love for casual games.

The Sony gaming community is unique among all gaming communities, which include the 360, Nintendo, and PC gamers in that they only, and continually, seek out games that conform to their high standards. Such high standards revolve around, and based on, the Sony gamer's core values of classiness, maturity, and intelligence. The successes found in Sony games and hardware such as innovation and mind-blowing graphics are due to Sony engineers and developers using the same core values as their inspiration. It should no surprise at all why the Sony gaming community is the most elite, hard core group of gamers as they are the only gamers who can see what is a high-quality or not. The so-called "sale successes" of lower quality games such as COD and the dignity raping Kinect games can be simply attributed to the vast number of inferior and mentally sluggish gamers in comparison. Though outnumber, the Sony gamers vastly outmatch the other gaming communities in terms of classiness, maturity, and intelligence.

Sony's announcement of 20 games at E3 can also be seen as saying "thank you" to the Sony gaming community as well as Sony's own declaration to continue providing high-quality games. The Sony gamer, being the superior gamer, doesn't care whether Angry Birds Sequel #5 or Kinect Star Wars: Jar Jar Binks Karaoke Edition outsell all other Sony exlusives. Instead, the superior Sony gamer only cares about videogaming bliss in the form of high-quality Sony games.

Sony Gamers Lead the Way!

They still have Agent, TLG, Quantic Dreams next game. And in case you forgot, Journey was released and a new PS Move exclusive The Unfinished Swan. There's Sorcery and the upcoming localization of Gravity Rush.

There's still Starhawk (spiritual sequel) and the PS-all stars. Oh and I almost forgot, they have "The Last of Us".

So tell us again why you are only seeing "sequels" in this conference? Because it seems to me, the only conference that will have that in spades is the MS one and it will START with Black Ops II and end with Halo 4.

DigitalAnalog4367d ago (Edited 4367d ago )

You misinterpret my post. I was simply responding to the "sequel" statement by providing sources that point the other direction. Using Journey as a sample, it showcases the fact the SONY doesn't pump out sequels as one may claim.

I even gave the header "Though unconfirmed" it is still in SONY's cards to announce Agent and TLG and QD's game (versus XIII can be included) as these are not "sequels" in their own right and not giving a "list" as you claim.

In short, we are more likely going to see new IP's on the conference as opposed to the "more than sequels" idea which Element X is expecting. Or do you have any other points to prove otherwise?

They also need to announce a ps home vita, new vita games, a better video store, unification of video and music store with a better pricing structure, more Vita and PS3 games where you buy one but u get the Vita copy free or vice versa. Sony Smart watch should also somehow play a part e.g u can use it as a remote for the ps3 or check trophies etc.

I want to see what Media Molecule, Guerilla Games, Sucker Punch and Quantic Dream are working on. It's about time for them to unveil their new games. Also since Naughty Dog split into 2 teams, maybe they'll announce Uncharted 4 (UC Racing?) or whatever it is they're working on.

Sony has a plethora of titles they could show off at their press conference. Let's hope they make the most of their time on stage.

Look, Im not making any judgement calls about this guy, but I will say that Helldivers 2 GaaS model is unique to Helldivers, and legit the only other game I can think of thats similiar was the Avengers game except HD2 pass is still better.
The fact that you can earn in game currency in a way that doesnt make you feel like you have to grind forever, as well you being able work on that pass that you bought...on your own time without a time limit...that right there is fucking huge to me, and I can't name any game other than avengers that avoided trapping players with FOMO logic...I think GaaS on HD2 shouldn't be compared to the rest of the industry...it should be copied.

In Europe it's a 60 40 split favoring PC.

So PlayStation owners supported the game just fine, it's not getting carried by PC or anything like that.

@just_looken,
I'm perfectly fine with the way Nintendo entered the mobile market, I never touched their mobile games, meanwhile, the console/handheld stayed the way it is. As for being a bean counter, he's probably going to reel in these massive budgets that Sony's studios have had lately, I haven't played Spiderman 2, but I cannot see how they almost tripled the budget for that game.

@Redemption-64,
That's an exception to the rule, I'm expecting a lot of these GAAS games from Sony to fail, to be fair, they only need a few to succeed, but I would have preferred that they put more of their resources into other types of games.

I don't think that will happen based on how things worked out at Naughty Dog now that we know what we do, seems they had the option to fully commit to live service games or stay making single player experences so they gave up on their live service game. We are not sure how things came about with Bend making a live service game but I hope that was not a forced situation. Sony doesnt seem like they are forcing studios to switch up but we will see, Sony's bread and butter is single player games it is how they dominated the console market.

Yeah, I though Sony learned something from all their failures in the LS segment under Bungie´s disastrous leadership and supervision which led to games been cancelled, studios closed and all the people laid off.

Looks like Bungie still plays a major role in Sony´s LS initiative and Sony is not backtracking on their GaaS plans.

Are we forgetting that Destiny is also a highly successful franchise? I feel like that definitely deserves mention here.

Besides, there is no reason why a person cant learn from past experiences.

I agree, people act as if Destiny flopped when it came out lol it took 9 to 10 years for the numbers to fall yet people are still playing it add the success of Helldivers 2 no wonder Sony is going forward down this path.

Personally, I see no problem with Sony also having service games as long as they make good ones, and more importantly they deliver the AAA story driven games that they are known for. So yeah, I agree 100% with you.

I mean, this person made some pretty bad decisions at Bungie. I hope they've learned from them because I definitely don't see those type of ideas as good for PlaySation in general.

Honestly, what’s to learn from? How to make people happily continuously dump money into a single game over its life-time? Buy season passes continuously for several years with a smile on our faces?

GaaS is a design decision that is everything wrong with this industry. The fact that Helldivers 2 did so well and people defend the monetization because it was $40 and is a fun game, scares the sh*t out of me to see that the door is open and all shift will probably be to replicate that in future games. We already know the ROI for traditional game dev cost isn’t doing it for them.

I thought with Jimbo leaving we’d see a change for the better… I’m not so sure now.

Service games are being offered by everyone. Sony cannot afford to only create single player AAA games. No one can. They already said they will be doing both.

Ps5 gamers in 2023 seemed to play more live service types of games, so regardless to how people feel about them, numbers don’t lie and Sony is going where the money is. I mean look at the excitement around Helldivers2, people are showing that they want live service games.

They play long-time existing live service games like CoD, Fortnite, Apex Legends, Destiny 2, and the like. Mass majority of new live service games are considered failures and aren't moving gamers away from older games.

Yep the huge issue with live service is they need paid players along with a reason to play them.

You forgot mobile market that also taps into that player base as well as the eve online style games there is only a certain amount of krakens/whales blind supporters compared to the amount of live service games we have its not sustainable math wise.

700 restaurants making food for every seat for 1000-3000 eaters just does not work out

I am not a big live service fan and literally own zero of the games you listed, but that is not true, unless you call games that aren't the top games to be failures.

There are tons of live service games that are profitable.

Games don't have to be the biggest game ever they just need to make more than they cost.

I challenge you to show professionally prepared data that shows that more live service games fail than make enough to keep going.

Because all the data that I have seen shows that live service is less of a gamble than making a big AAA budget game which needs to survive off retail sales.

I sometimes wonder if we're at saturation point, where it's hard for a new game to join those ranks unless it's particularly exceptional, people only have so much time and money to devote to these types of games.

How do you kill a franchise that already been killed?
Destiny’s grind, cash-in-on-playbass-cha-Ching, and pop-culture-insertion mainstream-me-too bs totally killed any rep Bungie had. Sony/Bungie, if you are doing this to ward-off players, it’s already working.

Are they? Are the f****** insane?

Why are they focusing still on GaaS and if so why someone from a failing let down of a company like Bungie who clearly hasn’t been a good investment for them.

I’d understand if this was hypothetical someone behind Helldivers II, someone super popular and successful for them.

Sony are making some stupid ass decisions lately, it’s annoying.

But but but Jim Ryan. You can't blame it on him anymore. Find another scapegoat.

As I said before, many online games are going to be GaaS games. Hell Divers 2 is a GaaS game. GT7 is a GaaS game. Gamers have said time and time again that they want road maps for games. Which is maps, items, weapons, skins, etc etc for online games and to continue to get more. Some of it will be free. Sure. But some of it will be paid. Get used it. You can deny it. But that's what online for Many games are becoming.

Single player games will still be offered. And that's where I'll always be. But the old style of getting a game and it having an online component for free is about over. You wanted an online game with longevity and the only way to offer that is to monetize it. Shit ain't free for developers to keep a game going for some time by producing more content for it and giving it away for free.

Some developers will do that because they want their fans to think how pro consumer they are by giving content away for online. But if the numbers don't add up, they'll either change to monetizing their game or shutting their servers down because it's not making money. And many have shown that if a game doesn't continue to get new content, you bolt and move on to the next game.

You asked for it, you got it. As others have said, you played games like cod and destiny online and didn't bat an eye to go against it. Shitting on Jim who retired won't make it go away. You want GaaS to go away, stop playing online like I do. And stop buying all the micro transaction shit. And tell a friend to do the same. And stop whining like bitches if you can't do that.

Sony dropped the ball on a GTA clone like the getaway the last gta came out in 2013. Why make the sam first person gaas over and over.

I already knew this guy was probably gonna be worse than Jim given his words in interviews. He's even more of a straight business man tha Jim ever was. Good thing he's just temporary, and i hope whoever they hire to take over puts things back on track to what made people pive PlayStation to start with, cause this aint it.

Honestly i still say just put Shuhei in there, he's still in the company so it would be extremely practical.
