Expect a big announcement from Sony about its next-gen PlayStation 4 console this month or possibly in early May, a source familiar with the company's marketing strategy told PCMag this week.
Sony already revealed some PlayStation 4 specs at a February event in which the company unveiled the console's controller (pictured) and a stereo camera with motion capture capabilities, but not, to the chagrin of gamers everywhere, the PS4 itself.
Waiting a decade for new instalments in franchises as massive as Fallout and Elder Scrolls feels like a waste.
Microsoft have Obsidian but I feel it's Bethesda who just don't want to play ball as they've always said they want to do it themselves.
Once MS bought Zenimax in 2020 they should have put the Outer Worlds 2 on the back burner, allow Bethesda to finish off its own Space RPG with Starfield (despite totally different tone why have two in your first party portfolio with two developers who's gameplay is a tad similar) and got Obsidian for one of their projects to make a spiritual successor to New Vegas.
When the Elder Scrolls VI is finished Bethesda can then onto the main numbered Fallout 5 themselves.
The Outer Worlds 2 started development in 2019 so putting it on the back burner wouldn't have been the end of the world, they'd have always come back to it once Fallout was done and it would have been nicely spaced out from Starfields release once they had most likely stopped supporting it and all the expansions were released.
If they did this back in 2020 when they bought Zenimax and the game had a good, steady 4 - 5 years development, you might have seen it release in 2025.
We are literally going to be waiting until 2030 at the very earliest for Fallout 5 and all they seem bothered about is pushing Fallout 76.
Athenian Rhapsody is a JRPG with a difference: alongside turn-based combat & exploration, you'll need to complete WarioWare-style microgames.
EA and Respawn Entertainment's action adventure game, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, is now available to EA Play subscribers in some regions.
THERE IS MORE SONY?!?!?!
"Expect a big announcement from Sony about its next-gen PlayStation 4 console this month or possibly in early May, a source familiar with the company's marketing strategy told PCMag this week."
But early May is when the Xbox is supposed to be revealed, damn Sony are really starting to try and knock MS off. This would mean that MS are revealing the Xbox in May and Sony are trying to eliminate the thought of it by showing more.
"...,unless Sony manufactures its own event. That's precisely what Sony plans to do, according to the source, who said late April/early May will be the likeliest timeframe for a full-blown launch of the PS4."
So Sony are going to make another event, so they are showing what the PS4 will look like and more games and a more specific launch date, price, etc. but what about E3???
Sony is just trying to keep the spotlight on them and so far its working. Hiring Mark Cerny as lead system architect best thing they have done in years.
They are in it to win this time, this is how Sony was in the Playstation 1-2 era. Trying to crush any xbox hype.
They've held their own event pre-E3 for the past couple of years.
Both companies will have their own events dedicated to their next consoles.
Why fight over the spotlight at E3 when you can have your own event?
It's rather fun watching the next-gen unfold, both companies are fighting to gain the audience.
At the end of the day the harder they try the better it is for us.
LAWD HAVE MERCY.
lol Sony forgot to set their passive pre-emptive spell to [off]
