High Expectations Will be Attached to the PlayStation 5 Reveal

Gamerheadquarters; "With the PlayStation5 reveal almost being upon us, there are certainly high expectations attached to the showcase. Since the Xbox Series X has had information trickling out for awhile, and with Sony’s quieter approach these two factors have been building a lot of hype around the initial presentation."

Its sony. It will have gameplay on a gameplay event, More, they wont be all running in a high end PC GPU from Nvidia (2080TI), like others did.

[crazyCoconuts]

And does it even have to be fantastic to surpass what we've seen from team Xbox so far? They've done a great job imbuing in us that the XSX has a power advantage, but in terms of games it won't take much from Sony to win that fight.

[lifeisgamesok]

Yeah, and Sony seem very confident and they want everyone to tune in

The show is going to be good. I think we can expect either Spider-man, Horizon Zero Dawn 2 or God of War

Also some guesses
Batman
Resident Evil 8
Silent Hills
Lost Soul Aside
Wild
Gran Turismo 7
Star Field
Demon Souls
Crash Bandicoot
Dragon Age
Housemarque new IP
Supermassive new IP or Until Dawn 2
NBA 2K or UFC

[waverider]

Yeah, your right. They went with the teraflops narrative and that backfired big time with the Vahala reveal, beside the lack of gameplay... And lack of hype with the games that they reveal.

I'm ready for a good ride 8). Bring the games, bring the exclusives, bring real next gen to all of us.

[Chris12]

Xbox's key event is next month, why don't you wait to see that before jumping to the usual hyperbole fanboy conclusions.

[darthv72]

Certain games are a given so Im not really going to be blown away by reveals of GT7, Spider-man 2, Gow2 or HZD2. But if they throw out some serious curve balls like the Order 2, killzone 4, or even sunset overdrive 2... then hot damn it will blow my mind.

@Chris12

"...why don't you wait to see..."

Fortunatelly that kind of disease don't propagate over gaming community, that's exclusive to Xbox fanboys. We don't need the wait loop.

[Kumakai]

But that’s basically what the ps5 and series x are. That’s their power point. And Sony does the same thing so don’t be naive. And the series x still has more gpu than ps5 by about 35% more power (20 more CUs and a faster locked clock) so it can runs games faster and higher res.

[Relientk77]

I'm hoping for games and lots of them.

[monkey602]

I dont expect anything other than games tonight. I actually doubt we'll see the console or a date/price

Just a load of awesome looking games to get excited about

[JaXion5]

Obviously.

[Elda]

It's longer than 30 mins so Sony has plenty of time to bring it!!

[Bathyj]

7.5 hours.

Sony has played it masterfully. The less is more approach has definitely worked for them. Even the one week delay of this event only served to make us clamor more for it.

I expect gameplay gameplay agameplay with no smoke and mirrors. No *representative* PC footage. just Games running on PS5.

Even now watching The last of us part 2 extended TV commercial I like how they write not actual gameplay at the bottom during a cinematic. They could easily say captured in game engine and it would be true but their transfarency in this regard is admirable. They give gamers credit for not being stupid, they know we can't be fooled by that in 2020. and more than anything they know they don't have to carry on and make a lot of noise, their games speak for themselves

[ClayRules2012]

Well said.

Sony’s games speak for themselves, and their developers really are some of the best in the world at what they do. I have no doubt Sony will surprise us all, in the best way possible with what they’ll showcase today.

[AnnaDea]

2 hours of games and other goodies.

Sony won the E3 of 2020 already!

[isarai]

7hrs left guys!

[RazzerRedux]

I want to see game play from first party games. High expectations? You bet.

[xX-oldboy-Xx]

Sony know the pressure they're under to deliver - I'm sure they will.

They just have to show a single PS5 1st party launch title and they're already further along than the competition.

Fair to say they'll be showing more than one 1st party PS5 exclusive. Gonna be EPIC!

[Stanjara]

I hope there is gameplay with photo mode were they stop the action and look around like ue5.
I don't need music, drums, shaky cam and cuts every 2 sec.
Give me photo mode walk through next gen engines.
I want Cerny on stage to play around with ds5.
I want rain stopped in real time...to disappear in...tears.

2 hours is long. It will be a bunch of numbers of PS4 and Psplus, and Vit...oh, and Vr, yes Vr for the first hour.
Then partnerships...omg...and then the sound 'blip' with 30min of joy.

[Ron_Danger]

You know this isn’t an on stage E3 conference, right?

[Acecalibur]

Damn right. We going all in baby. GET F'N HYPE. F*** IT.

[GamingSinceForever]

Sony is up against themselves here not MS. The expectation is that the PS5 is a quite noticeable leap over the PS4 Pro. I don't see them screwing that up and even if the event turns out to be underwhelming we know they will more than make up for it down the line. Sony has been doing this for a while now and they are simply the best.

[PCgamer98]

I'll just keep my expectations in check.

[nyobzoo]

Well we've all been waiting for this since the announcement of the PS5 and the fact that they were running ads on multiple cable networks doesnt help drive up the expectations.

[Silly gameAr]

Thanks for making an article that states the obvious.

[GamingInFrames]

I want to hear framerate talk above 30fps.

[Kumakai]

PlayStation could show a banana and the next 2 weeks would debate how a banana is better than the series x being a console

“Yeah the X is more powerful but a banana has more niacin and fiber bro and we need nutrients to live!”

[Ron_Danger]

You’re trying too hard. Your comments are always much nicer when you talk about all the amazing Xbox trailers your company is working on 🙄
