Sony Asks: "What Are You Looking Forward To Most In 2009?"

It's the theme of the day! Insomniac Community Manager just got finished telling us how "awesome" Killzone 2 really is, and now, we see that many other industry insiders and executives have chimed in with their PlayStation expectations for 2009.

[Keele]

I'm looking forward to the fall of Suckstation 3 and the masses of Sony fangirls suiciding.

[Magic_The_Celt]

Im looking foward to laughing in your face when it doesnt

Oh and im looking foward to all the 360 exlusives and PS3 exlusives in 2009, see im superior to you by having both ;)

[GiantEnemyLobster]

To Sony laying off even more employees and SCE crumbling into little bitty pieces.

[NegativeCreep427]

I'm looking forward to the both of you getting your balls ripped off; So that you two cannot contaminate the rest of the world with your sad pathetic ignorant seeds.

[GiantEnemyLobster]

But unfortunately in order to reproduce you need to have a woman, so it would be pointless.

[Parapraxis]

"For 2009, I’m looking forward to playing all the new downloadable content for MotorStorm Pacific Rift – we have some awesome new tracks and more content than ever before – all soon to be announced."
Awesome.

[rogimusprime]

to better US content on the PS store. I'm still waiting for Resident Evil 2. You guys are leaving money on the table with those classics...lawyers be damned.

Looking forward to GOW3, and KZ2.

I'm sure this one is a long shot but... I'm looking forward to you securing more exclusives...wouldn't it be nice if you guys had a full year without losing another exclusive, Sony?

Devil may cry, ace combat, Final Fantasy, Tekken....those hurt.

If you can't get more exclusives, at least take some away from M$, or make the one's you have stronger. No more Haze/Lair/Socom fiasco's. Basically just continue to make a stronger case for the purchase of your system.

[Shadow Flare]

the ps3 getting a price drop, inevitably outselling the 360 every week worldwide once again, and in turn shutting the media up and making them eat their stupid, retarded words.

But more on note, i'm looking forward to the ps3 games like KZ2, Uncharted 2 and hopefully GT5 if it makes it this year. Might try FF13 too. More psone downloads would be welcome. I'm looking forward to Sony making Home alot better this year. And please bring the psn movie service to europe. Essentially, i guess im looking forward to quality games in 2009. Not just DLC packs

[StayHigh]

Sony cant do anything about third party games..They need to concentrate on their own games..This year I hope they will announce Dark Cloud 3, Twisted Metal, Syphon Filter series for the PS3!!

[eagle21]

Killzone 2
Team ICO announcement
InFamous
VERSUS XIII E3
GDC/E3
God of War III E3
Heavy Rain
New IP announced

A dozen more, but that is tops.

[Leathersoup]

I'd tell Sony what I was looking forward to... but it's a Secret! ;)

[Maddens Raiders]

...simply the best off-road racing game of ALL-TIME.

[GVON]

first the games

what's been confirmed as 09
SF4
KZ2
Res 5
infamous
Heavy Rain
Uncharted 2
Eyepet

That would do me, but there are others I can't think off right now but no doubt will me mentioned throughout the comments section.

In terms of the system I'm looking forward to the next few step up's with XMB,more web browser integration for ps3 games like with MGO,Pain.maybe even a new browser.

That Eu music service were you have the ability to watch any music vid through the console.

Full integration with the photo system,even the long rumor vid capture,this has been proven possible thanks to play tv were you can record tv and play games so it's just changeing the recording source.

For Home I just want to go to E3,or the Sony day or TGS09,possible even have access to demos,wishful thinking but again possible.
also how 3rd parties take to it be it developers or outside companies like red bull and diesel.
and how it looks going into 2010.

obviously blu ray is now a part of the PlayStation experience,so any new movie that looks good,will be mine.

thats about all i can think off right now,oh yeah and unannounced games that will hit in 2010,the year Sony said you would really see the true power of the ps3.
I don't forget easily Sony,so show me what you meant by that.

so a happy gaming year to all the fanfolk of every console.

[Homicide]

Uncharted 2 or Team Ico if it comes out in 09.

[ThanatosDMC]

Resident Evil 5 online coop and Monster Hunter 3.

[Capt CHAOS]

.

<sorry guys, this is the open zone, Couldn't resist :->

[Cajun Chicken]

'Free Realms'

[Nathan Drake]

The Agency could be something special

[Pennywise]

I want to be able to level up, run instances and collect items with my friends on the PS3.

I dont want a WoW clone, but something with these features keep me coming back for more.

[akiraburn]

The Agency does look awesome, and I've been following that for a while. Almost a year now they have had their site setup to sign up for the beta, but it doesn't seem like they have started the beta yet. Hoping that things are fully underway and that we hear more news on it soon.

Also really interested in that deal Sony signed with NCsoft, and what games they have been working on. They said that it would be new IP's exclusive for PS3, but I still have my fingers crosses that Guild Wars 2 ends up with a PS3 version as well.

[Simon_Brezhnev]

lol finally dis got approved earlier this morning one got failed because stupid xbox fanboys said dis a duplicate

[Fishy Fingers]

I think a lot of people were just getting it wrong.

http://www.n4g.com/industry...

Subject matter is the same, but this post contains quotes from each exec that the other didn't. People get it wrong sometimes dude. But yeah, it's not a duplicate.

[Cajun Chicken]

It's EXACTLY the same source material as the GOWIII Bethesda dev article, Videogamer.com made TWO articles from precisely the same source material.
I just personally got fed up of being tricked into reading it.

It's like being rickroll'd over and over and over again.

[40cal]

whilst we have the music and video download service becoming available towards the end of the year.
David Reeves, President, Sony Computer Entertainment Europe

Wait, a music service, oh hells yeah. This would be awesome to be able to get all of my media from one place. Games, Movies, and Music at my finger tips every time I power up the PS3.

[Fishy Fingers]

Vidzone it's called. It was annouced a while back, here some info...

Press Release: http://www.gamershell.com/c...

Demo vid:

[40cal]

That looks like it has a ton of potential, and they are saying it is going to be FREE. Nice. But will it come state side?

If not oh well I have a PSN account for Europe.

[ReTarDedFisHy]

Can't believe it's only a month away.

[Sangria]

Some are talking about God Of War III, can we expect a 2009 release? (even if i don't think so)

[360RRODFIX]

On papper this all sounds amazing, and it is don't get me wrong. I just hope install base gets bigger since if you want all those games to be profitable you need big install base. Not that many people have money for 10+ games in a year, that's 600+ USD.
And for exapmle Killzone2 buyer might not buy The Agency or some other MMO they have.

[40cal]

I plan on spending about $1300.00 on content in 2009, between games and movies. But then again a lot of that money will come from trading games back into GameStop.

[heyheyhey]

a lot of stuff to look forward to, can't really decide on a definitive choice

but i am very eager to find out more about M.A.G... if all goes right, that game could take up my gaming schedule for 2009... 256 player skirmishes with a realistic modern conflict COD4-style approach... HELL YEAH!!!! now if they also throw in a level progression system like COD4 then it could be my end-all be-all game (not really, il find some time off to play GOW3 and stuff)

[40cal]

That is a tough question to answer, there is so much coming to the PS3 in 2009 that I cant pick just one thing.

[militant07]

i dont have most
im looking forwrod for WKS/SO4/H3:ODST/RE5 and FF13 OR FFV13 is the most if its make it in 2009

[360RRODFIX]

David Reeves is so lame. He hypes only Sony Europe games (Heavy Rain and KZ2). Throw in Infamous or Uncharted 2 Dave, don't worry no one will steal your thunder.

[ultimolu]

Sweet God, the games.
...I hate you Sony. :[

[ActionBastard]

PS3 has no games.

[ultimolu]

Liez! o(>-<)o

[Solbadguy]

I got 2 PSPs now, just bought a PSP-3000 and it has great contrast. Don't believe the BS that goes around about the scanline issues, it was blown way out of proportion.

Monster Hunter Unite - make it happen soon!

PS3 - 34 Disc based games
- 20 PSN games

Keep up the good work SONY.

[XXXRATED]

I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO MORE 360 HOUSE FIRES AND RROD!

[PotNoodle]

People's lives ruined and potentially lives lost is VERY funny and really something to wish upon people that decided to choose an electrical product you happen to dislike.

[JD_Shadow]

Seriously, I think Sony is owed at least one time in which that practice works in THEIR favor, since it seems to be ONLY the PS3 exclusive that end up having that "decision". Bioshock 2 is going to be multi, but maybe announce that they talked some things over with Square Enix to make sure they FINALLY pay some attention to the PS3 besides the FF13 stuff (and make sure what happened WITH FF13 never happens to a SE game again). Maybe make sure that SO4 CAN go multi.

I agree they need to secure the third party exclusives, because it seems now that them saying "we don't pay for third party exclusives" has told Microsoft that they have an opening to make sure those 3P games that Sony doesn't pay for end up going multiplatform. If MS is obviously going to take advantage of such words with every single third party exclusive that Sony has, then maybe Sony should do something about it and throw away their morals, because MS is obviously not using any morals themselves.

(BTW, what the HELL has happened to my bubbles. I'm down to three now. What the hell kind of threat do I pose on here to some of you guys).

[creeping judas]

wasn't Mass Effect 2 said to go multi, or was that just a rumour.

[JD_Shadow]

It was a rumor, but it's a VERY likely one now that EA seems to have the publishing rights for the game. There's been rumors all over the place, and Bioware never did say that the trilogy would stay exclusive (even though a UK 360 site made a mistake of saying such that Bioware later made them retract because they never actually said that: http://oxcgn.com/2008/07/22... ).

[running rampid]

what i'm looking forward to most in 2009? that's simple, killzone 2.

[ActionBastard]

Damn near everything they've shown. But the one's that come to my mind are:

InFAMOUS
Heavy Rain
Fat Princess
Savage Moon
Afrika
Killzone 2
Uncharted 2
Flower
Noby Noby Boy
White Knight Chronicles
God of War 3
DC Universe Online
Cross Edge

[locos85]

I'm not looking forward to the part-time job I will need to get to buy all these great games :(

[Cajun Chicken]

LOL, I was thinking the same, except a full time job, last year of Uni for me.

[pp]

I'm looking forward to non of your pathetic games and your sh*t console you can shove Killzone 2 up your ass.

[reelife]

Starts to get owned i see. Although do you know the secret why 360 is called 360? You take your old X-box, shuv it up your a$$ twist it 360 degrees, pull it out, and voila!!! X-box 360, a sh*tty stinking package full of wonders!

[40cal]

it sounds like someone already shoved it up yours.

[heyheyhey]

sorry pp... couldn't hear you over your tears

[rucky]

You have no idea how funny that comment is!

[user9422077]

Killzone 2, Uncharted 2.

[Obama]

Xbot's tears. Give me please Sony.

[Chrissy]

Something that actually delivers. In other words almost everything without a sony logo:\

And a year without ps3cryfags wouldn't hurt either. They really made ps3 08 an embarrassment for gamers everywhere. So much crying and b*tchin ugh

[RelloC_ReBorn]

I want DIABLO 3 on my PS3 Plz! Blizz said they would go console if the console players could play with the Pc players... I don't see why that couldn't happen... its Time!

And i must say that the lack of a Tekken Or Twisted metal game this far into the ps3's life is disappointing.

They need down loadable games
I hear there trying to get Segas library but they should be doing there own games already.

Sony owns How many MMo's?
planet side on ps3 with no fee would OWN! and prolly be played the entire life of the machine... drops people some downloadable expansins via PSN...

THey have a Deal With NCsoft to do MMos... NCsoft owns City of villians and some others.. altho i dont see city of heros or villans competing with DC online
Dont they own Guild wars? who wouldnt play that on ps3 lol

they should give free copies of PSP movies when u buy the Blue Ray ? lol

Make Home NOT SUCK

SOme one explain why ur ps3 cant Tivo? i mean WTF?

[creeping judas]

TIVO is pay for use service. The PS3 would also make a not so good DVR due to the size of the hard drive.

Here is a link to the TIVO HD where they say the 160gb is way too small for a HD-DVR unit.

http://www.cnet.com.au/dvdp...

[Oner]

PlayTV

[DragonWarrior46534]

Im looking forward to cross game chat the most. We will never get it unless you people ask for it. Stop being noobs, we are all getting the games next year. Now its time to pick up where 2.40 left off.

[creeping judas]

that would be awesome!!!!

[DragonWarrior46534]

Also, Im looking forward to COD6

[Magic_The_Celt]

Uncharted drakes fortune is one of the best and best looking games this gen

So im looking foward to Uncharted 2

im also extatic about Killzone 2 :D

[SSCOOLCHEA]

i am not leaving games out because it sucks but because i can't afford it . but here is whats already paid for at gamestop...killzone 2 , infamous ,god of war 3 and uncharted 2 .

@pp.....DLC is coming don't worry you be happy to
@chrissy...I really don't know what the fk you are talking about

you guys really need to fire up your xbots and play halo or gears and watch fake hd on netflix.

[creeping judas]

""The most important thing for us as a company in the very short term is for us to start making money. This is a pledge that was made last March and is something that we are still very much on target to achieve. Once we have achieved this, I think it will be a very exciting time for PlayStation. Once we have alleviated that specific pressure, we can move forward at a rate of knots."

So once theyve ALLEVIATED THAT SPECIFIC PRESSURE (cost to produce the PS3), we can move forward at a rate of knots (cut price of PS3). Good thing to look forward to.

[ThatCanadianGuy]

2009 will be incredible.I'm already saving up money for all the games i want.I'll be broke by september.

[gumgum99]

"What Are You Looking Forward To Most In 2009?"

some pie.

[j/k]

[gumgum99]

I'm not actually sure at the moment. There are many games from both sides that are "in the dark", so I have yet to make a decision currently.

[farhsa2008]

im looking forward to more ps3 playtime

[AriesFury]

Better online service on the PSN as well as more PS2 and PSOne games.

[n to the b]

Bioshock 2 in 2009 please
