ah didn't express myself cleary
that was actually what i meant (that the game will be present at PSX) - not that we will see actual footage/Gameplay
They said that, the next time we will get informations about this game will be in Winter/December
And i think PSX is a much better stage for this huge Game, than the Jump Festa. Also because of Square Enix trolling last year at the PSX

I wonder if Bend can have a game that has the same impact as Horizon had at E3.
I am really looking forward to it, they're a capable studio!
Edit: I lost hope on the Level-5 game. We won't see it this year :/

Awesome. Hope this means what we think it means.
Hype levels set to overdrive.
Ha ha ha, what the fuck?!
Nah, let them try something new. I think for the most part people would be more receptive to a completely new and fresh original IP like Horizon or TLoU - plus, I'm pretty sure Shinobi has heavily hinted (if not outright stated) that it will be an open world horror game. I seem to recall that he clarified it would be more 'realistic' horror in the same vein as The Last of Us, rather than full-on crazy horror like Silent Hill.
Yeah I'm on media blackout. I'll ignore my stream if anything Uncharted debuts during PSX.
Really all we need now is a hype story trailer (which I will ignore).
The game is using Unreal Engine 4 I believe. I remember a couple job listings from Sony Bend that inferred a great emphasis on graphical capabilities.
Should be a looker at least!

Nice, if we get to see the new Bend game, some more infos about PSVR and footage for GT7 I'd already be happy.
Crash would be awesome though or even better Colony Wars!!

Someone alert Colin and Greg over Bend appearing at PSX.
Great news though.
Great news though.
It's from one of the producers of MGS4 and brief director of Halo 4, Ryan Payton. It seems promising to me.
Edit: https://twitter.com/giocorsi/status/664414810612846592 Maybe they are discussing a Shenmue 3 showing at the PSX conference?

Here's my edit of pager99's image of upcoming PS4-only (+PC, other PS platforms) games:
Side-note: in case I want to add/remove things in the future, does anyone know of a way to add new stuff in between current games without having to manual move everything else?
Edit: Shameless self promo, but I have updated lists of the latest PS4 exclusives, as well as exclusives across all other platforms, here: http://gematsu.com/exclusives/

Same here, no reason to see anything Uncharted 4 related. I skipped the extended E3 demo, and I wish I didn't see the first part either.
There has to be another way of getting into this without buying the collection.viHuGi said:

I have the collection as well, it's on the PS3. -_- I'll have plenty to play this holiday either way, might catch up to my backlog. I would have liked to play the beta though. Apparently it's not enough for Naughty Greed to buy all 3 games on PS3 and spend a ton on a collectors edition on the PS4, I need to buy the last gen games to play the beta. It's nothing new with them though, just look at the The Last of Microtransactions Factions.Well i have the Collection, loving it
lol, perfect.

You're overstating his role on those games a bit. He was an assistant producer on MGS4 and narrative designer on Halo 4 (he started out as creative director but was demoted mid-development).
The first three episodes of Republique are already out on iOS, Android and PC and they sound decent but it's been a year since the third episode came out, so who knows what's going on with it.

I wouldn't take it so personally, - and come on man, who's going to distribute a PS4 beta to users based on their PS3 game purchases?
Giving it out to people who a month before purchased a PS4 collection will net them enough interested players without some convoluted process of elimination.
It's all about the reveal. CGI trailer won't do a thing to hype me up other than show a premise.

Yeah it's a bit off kilter to assume that PS3 games will net anyone any sort of consideration.
I was just stating what he refers to those roles as on his Twitter profile and on podcasts I've heard him on. And I did say "brief" director lol.
When the PS4 version was announced they said that it would include all five episodes so the fourth and fifth episodes could come out along with it. And it might not be too far away because it was listed for February by Amazon Germany https://twitter.com/gematsucom/status/657214863719145472

I'd love a Bend reveal. That and God of War, though it will probably just be a cinematic teasing its direction, could make for a pretty good show.

Bend's game better not be a CGI reveal. After Horizon's killer reveal, it would be pretty lame if they went the CGI route with this one.
Not sure how further along GoW is, but I'd just love an official confirmation at this point that it's definitely being made. They should also make clear the direction they're taking with the game.
Yeah, at this point it seems the last 2 major games from SCE this year are Sony Bend and SSM. Sony Bend's game in late 2016 and SSM in March 2017.
Should leave E3 nice and open for Sucker Punch and a new From Software/SCEJ collaboration.

fromsoftware puts out dark souls 3 next year in march/april it would be too early,
i fully expect a level5 collab to be shown instead provided level 5 is ready to show it of course

Why do people insist Killzone is a failure? Consistent multi million seller with pretty good critical reception.
From also put out Bloodborne this year, and then revealed Dark Souls 3 a few months later. They're an efficient and well oiled machine that seems to be able to put out very high quality games almost on a yearly basis now.

touche, hmm that would be quite soon if it did get revealed and shipped the following year, damn
then dark souls 4 the following year
They also somehow found time to port DS2 to PS4/XB1.

That almost sounds like PT, haha. (Yes I know he worked on SH, which makes it doubly awesome)
Yeah, this is why I brought it up. I hope this doesn't mean they aren't developing for PS4, because I want to play Hunger very badly.
Aw, I like full-on crazy horror, specially like Silent Hill.
I'm more than a little confident that Sony Bend is going to have a big reveal and make quite an impact at PSX much like Guerrilla did with Horizon at E3. I expect it to begin with a trailer of sorts and then transition into gameplay footage just like Horizon did. The way that Shu has been teasing it over the past couple of years and the way a couple of insiders have talked about have me optimistic that it's going to be great.
If God of War gets revealed, it'll be a CG trailer and then they'll show gameplay at E3.

Think all those 300 devs are working on UC4?

A few of them must be working on the new project, just a few though. I doubt they are doing 150 and 150, each on a different thing.
I hope they decided to go for the futuristic setting. I want a Blade Runner game done by ND.

I was talking overall. yes Killzone is a pretty successful franchise but knowing the huge popularity of FPS it's nothing exceptional. I would be surprised if they release another one.

Member
thanks for the updates man, will change it !
i guess after UC 4 launched, the number will get reduced again
For the same reasons they say 'PS3 made a comeback.' despite it outselling the 360 globally almost every month it was on sale from launch - USA=World.
You still see it on sales threads - people being 'amazed' at where PS4 sales are coming from, for example.

with all these big shooters like Destiny, COD, BF and eventually Titanfall...im not sure if Sony really needs their own big FPS IP (where they failed the past years anyway)
Those Destiny/Battlefront Deals are probably enough

I really hope Bend's game does not get a CGI reveal either, but generally speaking I think Sony has pretty much moved away from that by now. God of War Ascension had a short CGI teaser, but I can't think of any other games they revealed since the PS3 early days which had a CGI trailer. EDIT - I mean big tentpole releases. There are still some CGI reveals like Shadow of the Beast and Wattam, to my annoyance.
As for God of War, Corey had said it's in development and SSM have heavily hinted that they'll be showing something next month, so I think it's going to be the big centrepiece game.
I would prefer that because I think we're looking at an early 2017 release, but I'm pretty sure it's getting its reveal next month.
I imagine the vast majority of the company is working on Uncharted 4, but hopefully they have a small team prototyping or in pre-production for something new. Savage Starlight is going to take an extra-long time if Druckmann and Straley are leading on it!
I mean, you've basically just described Metroid Prime and Resistance - a moderately successful FPS franchise which sold very well on its first iteration (~4 million to ~4.5 million) but gets dwarfed by the big guns, and is now more than likely dormant.
