What awesome stuff that isn't Titanfall bundles, price-cuts, OS updates and accessories?
Yeah but there's the possibility that they announce a release date for the BL2 bundle in NA and that might coincide with the release of the new model in Europe.
Gears aquisition announcement was pretty cool.

I guess that just depends on whether or not Uncharted comes out this year. I was just referring to the games that we know about.

Another event where Driveclub will not be shown.
Nah it's destiny, the background is the abandoned highway from the demo shown.
I don't like making threads about random tweets from strangers, because there is a high possibility that it is bullshit. So I just post it here. Take it with a huge grain of salt.

Interesting, don't really care too much about another COD, but I would like GTAV on PS4. I was hoping we might get some leaks of first party games, but unfortunately Sony is canceling those.

I'd lean toward fake just based on the fact that he says it's the next entry in the MW series. That's wrong on two levels. It's Infinity Ward's series, and they've already moved on to Ghosts. The other reason is that MW3 was meant to end that story, so there'd obviously be no next entry. It also wouldn't make sense considering that this is Sledgehammer's first CoD game that they're building on their own. They get a chance to carve their own style like Treyarch has, so I don't see why they'd want to associate with any of the other brands.

Calling bullshit, IW wouldn't give Modern Warfare to Treyarch. Not to mention Ghosts was pretty much MW4.
Treyarch is 2015. Sledgehammer is doing the next one.

Still, IW wouldn't want to give MW to someone else.
IW has moved on from MW and Sledgehammer helped on MW3. This doesn't seem so far-fetched to me.

While it would make sense to bring out a new branch of the IP, it's too big a brand to give up. Right now we have Ghosts from IW, Black Ops from Treyarch and probably Modern Warfare from Sledgehammer.
I doubt their original CoD Third Person in Space thing is back from the dead.
I really doubt that IW has any say in regards to what they develop. And Treyarch is not doing this years game.
We? Gamers/fans? Nothing!
This is not an event for the public/gamers/fans.

I think the success of Black Ops shows that which series it's in doesn't matter as long as it has CoD in the title. MW in some ways is also kind of a tarnished brand, so I don't see why they'd be so hesitant to let it go away.

IW is now Respawn, the current Infinity Ward is only a name.

Definitely. But at some point in MW's life it almost grew out of the CoD branding at it was "Modern Warfare" that was the big brand name. They've invested a lot in terms of branding those sub-divisions of the game and I think Activision would continue down that path for now.
At least play it safe with two studios, while a third experiments with a new brand-branch.

I just think that they know that CoD needs to have a fresh feeling again. It doesn't need to stop being CoD, but it does need to debut in a way that makes me excited when they see it. Just look at the reaction to Ghosts unveiling. It was basically people mocking it for fish AI and the shot of them opening the dogs mouth because everything else they showed looked so underwhelming and so by the books for the series. Letting Sledgehammer carve their own niche is potentially a good chance to give the series a shot in the arm.
Their direct competitors are stumbling in different ways, so they still have time to fix things before they may need to hit the panic button. BF4 had one of the worst launches for a high profile game ever, and Titanfall is on a limited number of platforms. So, the ball is still in their court.
Ground Zeroes is this year and The Phantom Pain is coming at some undetermined date. But it definitely won't be this year.
@Baylife87 The next 4 weeks should be good

Wonder if Sony will try dropping a bomb around the release of Titanfall?
Seems inevitable. Uncharted 4 news or something, perhaps?

GDC makes more sense, imo.
Trying to outdo Titanfall's noise is futile,I think. Better to weather the storm.
Eh GDC is not that kind of place.

Seeing as its Boyes and GDC, maybe related to developing for the ps4, like MS and the free unity?
or Half Life 3 exclusive for ps4...with super exclusive The Last Guardian DLC

Most of the time.
Companies used to do press conferences for GDC, though that rarely happens anymore... probably since E3's a much better venue.
Still, even if not GDC, feels like any news timing should be after inFamous drops.

I disagree. Smothering Titanfall's much easier than you think. New IP + Uncharted 4 footage + inFamous: Second Son could easily do it. (If we got that.) Plus whatever Batman game is coming out (though that's not Sony) and pretty much anyone that's not a FPS fan hardcore would forget about that game.

Actually GDC started asking publishers to stop doing it, because it ruined what GDC should be.
But there have been events before or after GDC because of the amount of journalists attending GDC.

That level of megaton is better saved for E3.

They don't have to outdo Titanfall, just something to give Sony a counterpoint to the inevitable chest thumping from Microsoft.

If anything its probably on reference to visuals. Which is plausible considering it's a next gen first game.
Baris ‏@Baylife87 4h
@amboyes So when will we hear some new stuff about PS4?
Adam Boyes ‏@amboyes 3h

Definitely Destiny, I recognize the pattern on the middle screen from the press material.Picture from yesterday I found on twitter.
Looks like Adam Boyes and someone else on stage, can't see who exactly it is.
Neither which game it is, but it might be Destiny.
