Yoshida: I don't know why Layden wore Crash shirt; PSX focus is smaller titles

I think Shu is one tier below Layden, but the key point is that Shu is only responsible for the first party projects.
Andrew House is the big boss.
House is Sony Computer Entertainment CEO
Layden is Sony Computer Entertainment America CEO
Shu is Worldwide Studios CEO
The other regions CEOs are Jim Ryan (SCE Europe) Atsushi Morita (SCE Japan)

So, The show ended kinda akward. I'm pretty sure Shu was supposed to show off fw 4.0, and a final speech from Shawn (1/2)
Tidux ‏@Tidux 35m35 minutes ago
(2/2) was gonna show some stats from sales and then end the show with introduction of Bend's new IP.
Tidux ‏@Tidux 32m32 minutes ago
I have no clue what happened to Bends new IP. Or the news of FW 4.0 (including name changes) I will try to find out

Coming off of their E3 people were expecting mega bombs again and also the ending was terrible. Personally for me though the FF7 and Uncharted stuff made it worth it by far.
Can we please ignore this guy? Don't give these fake "insiders" attention.
It's just sad to watch. And there are still some blind folks which are in denial and actually still believe him.

There's a beta in a few month and we know nothing about this game, they'll probably share stuff at Geneva's motor show but isn't PSX a much better stage?
Not really. GT needs a much bigger stage.

Yeah and I've heard they were meant to announce Crash reboot, but their system crashed and it erased the video.
Better luck next time!

The ending was abrupt. I told that to Adam Boyes face to face (name drop, oh yeah!). He pretty much said the same thing that smaller titles are the focus and I can tell you this, people were eager to get to the show floor. The conference ending early might have been a disappointment for viewers at home, but we could get to the floor and PLAY GAMES much earlier than expected.

I think people were expecting E3 2015 part 2.
My only gripe is why not show more of what you HAVE shown?
Why not more Horizon? TLG? GT? I'm not saying it has to be some super polished trailer, but a few minutes of gameplay.
Just saying, a little more AAA games would have been nice, especially during that middle section.

For me, PSX will be known as the the annual Yakuza event from now on.
And I'm more than satisfied with that

Well they started with uncharted 4 and ff7 then said "if we are starting with this imagine what else we caught"
We got randy pitchfork begging everyone to play battleborn.
1 hour of indies which was just to much even though I did pick up nuclear throne.
Then ended on another Moba that is going to come back next year with the leader of epic begging people to play it. Announcing Jacob the badass lemur.

Still conflicted about this. I want a new Crash game, but only if Sony 1st party is developing.
i like how layden tried to explain the end of show as something he didn't want to do after watching the trailer for paragon. it was so good that he didn't want to follow it up lol. something was definitely taken out from the end of that conference imo.
cool announcements but they need to present it better, started of with a big bang then fizzled out

I think people were expecting it to be like e3 but just a Sony conference. I always expect non-e3 conferences to have nothing major though because they're ...not e3.
But I think lately events like gdc have been given more hype for whatever reason, maybe big games were shown there recently I can't remember, so people might assume the same of something like PSX. It would be nice to have mini-e3's multiple times per year but I just don't see that happening.
FF7 gameplay was a cool surprise but yea the rest of it was lame to me, but I'm not disappointed because I didn't expect much to begin with. I could see people being upset by the Crash tease though when it seemed obvious they would show it if an important guy has a crash shirt on stage for no reason.

Yeah and fing Ace Combat 7, but they're not 1st party......so what?
Seriously that show was pretty solid and considering what Sony revealed during this whole year it's like icing on top of a gargantuan cake.

I actually think on the whole it had a real good mix of big and small games. As much as any Sony show has been the last few years when indies dominate their pressers. Maybe a little more indie focused then E3 or Gamescom but not by much.
The problem was with how the ending was presented. It just ending. No build up.
Nothing against Epic or that MOBA thing but it felt like it was just another game in the part of the show where Adam Boyes rattles off 3rd party games. It didnt feel like the closer. Then the show just ended.
After Ni No Kuni 2 Layden should have come back out and rattle off the normal ending lines about how awesome they are and then said "and we got one more game from one of the most influential developers of all time" and really bult it up.
Like I totally see why they thought having a console exclusive from the Gears of War people was a fitting closer to a show but they presented it about as bad as they could have.
