I'm ready! Can't wait! There are going to be some surprises, that's for sure.

LOGICWINS3873d ago

I cant even fathom that Sony has even MORE surprises. They've knocked it out of the park four conferences in a row and theres more?! Talk about goin HAM lol.

viveks863873d ago (Edited 3873d ago )

Especially when Shuhei Yoshida says there would be no surprises, there have to be surprises. He is such a master troll! :D

H.A.M, that's funny, but I agree! lol

Thunderhawkxbox3873d ago

Yeah will be more indie games or more about ps vita tv lol

PixelKnot3873d ago

Making fun of the PS4 for being indie-friendly is one of the lamest excuses to mock the system.

If Xbox One's indie support drastically improves with Microsoft's newly established self publish policies, would you call it IndieBox One?

Magicite3873d ago

SONY IS BACK ON THE RIGHT TRACK!

Metal Gear Solid: The Phantom Pain? Gran Turismo 2?

Abriael3873d ago

Haha, just woke up, it shows :D Fixed.

PositiveEmotions3873d ago

But what day sony is gonna have their conference at the tgs

Abriael3873d ago

On the 19th, and there's no livestream announced on that one. From the title it doesn't seem like an "announcement" press conference, but it's more a retrospective like the ones held by Mark Cerny.

PositiveEmotions3873d ago

Well lets hope its live because all the sony conference has been live so lets hope so.

Abriael3873d ago

Doubtful. Sony itself livestreams press conferences in which they're going to make announcements. This one doesn't seem to be the case. It's probably going to appear on Youtube afterwards though.

sinncross3873d ago

Ive been to tgs the past 2 years and what the article is detailing is not new announcements.

These stage events are announced before hand and are used to promote upcoming games. This area is usually in front of where Sony has all its booths. Its basically a time for the devs (or someone related) of a game to talk about the game while they show off new footage.

i dont recall Sony ever making a new game announcement at this stage event. Mostly because it happens during TGS when ppl are actually lining up all over the place to play games. Its far too noisy and crowded to effectively announce a new game.
If something new does come, it comes from the conference on the 19th which currently has no live stream info.

bligmerk3873d ago

All 3 events are going to have live stream but they are going to be on Nico Nico (Japanese). Apparently, some people think they will be picked up by twitch.tv and streams will be on different places but possibly all in Japanese. Kotaku and Eurogamer usually have a live blog of the keynote since they have somebody on staff that can translate.

"All the stage events at the Sony booth held on three different days will be livestreamed on Nico Nico. Here’s the schedule and relevant links:
September the 19th – Start at 10 AM Local Time (September the 18th, 9 PM EDT)
The World PlayStation 4 Creates
September the 21st - Start at 10 AM Local Time (September the 20th, 9 PM EDT)
September the 22nd - Start at 10 AM Local Time (September the 21st, 9 PM EDT)"

Thought that they weren't going to be streaming? Why they did the presentation which they did.

Abriael3873d ago

This is livestreaming of stage events, that are focused on the games themselves, not a conference.

GribbleGrunger3873d ago (Edited 3873d ago )

Any news on a Ustream or Youtube stream?

Abriael3873d ago

@GribbleGrunger: for the moment just nico nico is listed.

GribbleGrunger3873d ago

Is there any way of watching Nico Nico without logging in?

Abriael3873d ago

AFAIK some streams require login, some don't, but I don't see why you wouldn't want to login. Making an account is free, and you can do it via the English page if the language is the problem.

The one we heard they wouldn't be streaming is the press conference on the 18th. They have a keynote on 19th as well. No idea if that's being streamed or if it's only the game focused stage events. Looks like I'm going to stay awake through 3 nights at least! Curse you Sony, for your endless string of events! :D

Bethesda Needs to Reduce the Gaps Between New Fallout and Elder Scrolls Releases

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.

Its not just only Todd not playing ball.
Obsidian have made a name for themselves in delivering stellar RPGs, but most famous once have always been sequels/spin-offs to borrowed IPs like KOTOR 2, Neverwinter Nights 2, Fallout: New Vegas, Stick of Truth etc.
Obsidian wants to invest more in their own original IPs like Outer Worlds or Pillars of Eternity with Avowed.
Similar to what Bluepoint & inXile wants to do or Kojima is doing (i.e not involving anymore in Konami's IPs).
So yea, even if New Vegas has the most votes from 3D Fallout fans, Obsidian just wants to do their own thing, like any aspiring dev studio and MS is likely currently respecting that.
But a future Fallout game from Obsidian will surely happen. Founder Feargus Urquhart has already stated an year ago that they're eager to make a new Fallout game with Bethesda, New Vegas 2 or otherwise. Urquhart was the director of the very first 1995's Fallout game after all.
And don't forget Brian Fargo and his studio inXile, as Brian Fargo was the director of Fallout's 1988 predecessor: Wasteland

Obsidian should take over the FO IP. They're do far better with it than Bethesda who hasn't made a great game for almost 15 years

Athenian Rhapsody Throws WarioWare into a JRPG

Athenian Rhapsody is a JRPG with a difference: alongside turn-based combat & exploration, you'll need to complete WarioWare-style microgames.

El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron - Coming Back for a New Generation

Originally launched in 2011, El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is coming to Nintendo Switch, so It's time to look back at the original.

jznrpg1h ago

Still have my ps3 copies. Bought it at launch and another one when I found it cheap and in perfect condition about 10 years ago. I wouldn’t buy it on Switch but if they made a PS5 version I would. I still have one of my PS3 Fats hooked up so good to go either way.

darthv721h ago

Id play it again on the switch. I wished my 360 version was bc but this is still a good way to play.
