Sony E3 2017 Conference Review

Five conferences deep (if you count Devolver) before Sony stepped up to the mound. Their competitor Microsoft did great, so did Sony meet, exceed, or fall below the bar set by the Xbox One X? Let's take a look at what Sony did that was unique, and where they fumbled.

Their conference was underwhelming I expected more but it was safe.

CP_Company2905d ago

they give some games before the conference.like Knack? Yakuza 6 or Yakuza 0 and some other games.of course,i waited Bloodborne 2,but what can you expect? 100 exclusives? they are pumping them on enormous tempo, no one can offer more,not even close.

As a psvr owner glad to see it getting some love.
As a ps4 owner underwhelmed to basically see a rehash of last year's conference - only without the surprises.
Where is Dreams is my biggest question.

...how did a site that's primary focus is selling digital keys get posted here?

Now I see they're using this poorly written "article" to push digital keys "Will you be diving into the fight? You can find a cheap Helldivers 2 key in our price comparison."

darkciide112d ago (Edited 112d ago )

It's a price comparison - how do you think news sites make money? At least this page isn’t selling your data to advertisers or anyone who wants it.

"Astro Bot has sold 1.5 million units copies in the 9 weeks since its release. Interestingly, 37% of those who purchased the game had not bought any first-party game from Sony in the past 2 years."

Not that Sony released a bunch of games during that timeframe huh?!!

RaiderNation200d ago

Release a great game at a reasonable price and it sells. Wow what a concept! :)

Cacabunga200d ago

So Sony wants to be good old Sony? Not a bad idea but then stop with horizon milking and gaas for a while

Eonjay199d ago (Edited 199d ago )

I don't really think people would very harping on GAAS if Sony had released more single player games. Although my two most played games this year are Sony's Helldivers 2 and Microsoft's Call of Duty... which are both GAAS.

Sony is big enough to make both work but they should do more of this and let their fans know the single player games are coming (even though we already know about at least 8 of them)

By the way this is good news. I love their single player games too.

Relientk77200d ago

Yes, that would be great, do that. We sure got some bangers this year with Stellar Blade, Astro Bot, and FFVII Rebirth.

RaidenBlack200d ago

2025 Yotei and DS2
2026 Wolverine + Horizon MP
2027 Naughty Dog new IP and Venom
2028 Santa Monica new IP and FFVII-3
2029
2030 Physint

goken200d ago

I hope they manage Yotei properly, put a gag order on that Voice actor, stop her from antagonising the whole player base.
Seriously, they should have been more careful choosing who represents their games. I have no issue with her, but i do see why her choice may be a concern for many people. It’s just not a risk worth taking

goken200d ago

All great games, but i think Sony talking about 1st party and i think in their minds Astro Bot isn’t one of those big games and wasn’t expected to be as successful as it turned out.

TheKingKratos200d ago

Finally... Sony this gen seems to learn all the mistakes Microsoft done and just repeated them.

TheKingKratos200d ago

Sony still on board with that sh1t too

No wonder this gen is so damn slow and boring... I need to see what Ps5 can do and play amazing single player games but the output has been very poor so far and we still see Cross gen games and now they release another Ps5.2

Notellin199d ago

Yeah Indiana Jones, Avowed, Doom, Fable, Clockwork Revolution, Perfect Dark, and Everwild are all GAAS.

Oh wait you're a liar and just making stuff up.

Cacabunga199d ago

Check their last showcase and let us know once more.. you are so clueless and speaking of pure ignorance..

goken200d ago

Yup about sums it up. At least some one at HQ is stepping in to steady the ship.

RaidenBlack200d ago

But what about smaller experimental/more-fun projects?

Abriael200d ago (Edited 200d ago )

They closed all the studios that did these. Japan Studios, Pixelopus, etcetera.

northpaws199d ago

I think we will only get those from indie developers now.

anast199d ago

Not enough people buy them, even the ones that clamor for them.

BlackCountryBob199d ago

Unfortunately 97% or PS5 owners didn’t buy AstroBot, they’re a money making enterprise in the end and if people don’t buy the games, they won’t keep making them

DarXyde199d ago

The problem with that approach is the scope of gaming contracts. There's a reason we're seeing fewer experimental titles and many of the newer ones play similarly to popular games.
