My keynote pedictions, uninspiring though they may be:

UC4 story trailer
Uncharted Master Thief collection announced
New The Order gameplay segment
New Bloodbourne gameplay segment
No Man's Sky gameplay
Witness Gameplay
Rime retail version announced
Teaser for GG's Dino game
Teaser for GT7

Honestly if all we get is an Uncharted 4 trailer i'll be happy. But then I didn't pay $95 or travel to Las Vegas...

this looks realistic. ill be happy as long as uncharted is shown, both 4 and the collection. everyone hyping themselves up for new announcements are missing the point of this event.


edit:

verendus, is the flying bird dead? why didnt papa tell me they killed it?!?!

That's an expectation. =P

I think it'll be good, too, though.

Ha! I guess it is.

I think you need to stop looking at this as an E3 conference, as if all that matters is that particular presentation. The idea of this was born from wanting to communicate more with fans, and also allowing them more of a look behind the scenes of the development of some of their favourite titles, past and present. There's been a lot of evolution for this idea, but whatever the case, it ultimately ended up here and it's less about hyping up a particular presentation, and more about the entire experience. This is a pretty huge event all things considered.

Pretty much what I already thought, which is great. A chance to communicate with fans celebrating the past and present, with hopefully a sprinkle of the future as well.

Sony have a ton to be proud of, and I think something like this event is a great idea. Cant wait to see everything that comes out of it.

How in the hell is Parappa not in their?

I am stealthily bribing Verendus with avatar work for the inside scoop. Stay tuned.

You don't say it now. Wait till he trusts you and then stab him in the back. Don't you know how this works?


Keep it all secret man. We are going to find out soon anyway.

i mean look Parappa was cool for its time and all but now it's little more than a really simplistic timing rhythm game with hilarious lyrics. like the music game genre has moved dramatically beyond the game at this point :p

but i mean sure

I loved Parappa, but the sequel sucked, none of my beloved rhythm games have managed to follow it up strongly. UmJammer Lammy was amazing, then the mighty Gitaroo Man, and most recently Elite Beat Agents.

Do something insane and new every time I think. I do hope we get another one though.

I would love to see Crash return buy I dont think it will sell that good. People aren't interested in those game anymore or not enough to make profit of it. (outside of GAF) :)
 
I just hope if they bring back Parappa its a darker gritty game about how he fell off after having tasted fame at an early age and goes through hard times causing him to steal money from his fans on the internet only to have a triumphant return.

The Crash games have dominated the PSN classics charts in Europe and America for a long time.

In all fairness, it is an IP that really has its hooks deep in Nostalgia Land and therefore I'd argue there's still a strong market for it. You could follow the exact same formula of simple rhythm game + ridonkulous earworms + kid-friendly but still mildly insane backdrops/scenes and make a tidy profit-- not to mention garner a ton of goodwill-- if you kept your costs down in VA department and released it as a digital only title in the $10-$15 range. A lot of those older, simplistic games we frothed over when we were younger absolutely have a place in the modern era with a new iteration, just probably not at the $60 price point.

I just hope if they bring back Parappa its a darker gritty game about how he fell off after having tasted fame at an early age and goes through hard times causing him to steal money from his fans on the internet only to have a triumphant return.

lol Dred Foxx, is that you?

a) SCEE announces a first party exclusive to be released in 2015, which is not a re-master.

i feel like this is a reasonable choice.

I'm going for this too. Timing feels right, my only concern is the event being US based, maybe SCEE would hold off for GDC or something next spring.

For me theirs still nothin that matches what Parappa was doin. The character and art style is still fresh in a lot of peoples minds along with the music. Almost everyone can sing along the famous lyric from the first stage, "kick! punch! it's all in the mind." some even saw him as the playstation mascot along with crash and spyro in the early years. Parappa can still be a profitable playstation franchise if sony puts some effort into another game even though the voice actor for parappa has gotten into some trouble over the years.

I can't speak for individual panels, but there is going to be some great stuff for people attending this event, and a lot of efforts are also being made to show and give more information to those who aren't able to attend. It's very much a celebration of Playstation, but it's also about showing much more than that. Folks get a chance to look behind the development of some older titles, other ways in which certain parts of the game development process work, meet developers, take part in contests, get collectables, and of course, play games. It's being promoted as a community event, because that's what the idea was born from, something for fans.

Yes it's great if you're shown The Last Guardian or whatever, but try to think beyond that too. It's not often you get a chance to pick the brains of the people involved with so many of these franchises, and also get a chance to hear them speak about what made it happen. Who knows, maybe you'll come away with a few experiences worth remembering.

Hope they remember that they have a PSN audience in Europe and put a well supported stream up on Ps4

Argh this makes more envious of those attending than the upcoming announcements.
Those panels and activities sounds actually amazing.

Seems like pretty realistic expectations. I hope we get more info on Everybody's Gone to the Rapture as well too, and I'd like at least some footage on Shadow of the Beast. And bloody Helldivers too, if it's not out by then!

Please don't forget the Vita, I'm not asking for extensive coverage but at least make it 2015 a year to look forward to.

Ahh who am I kidding.

Someone asked on twitter if the devs will be at the event, Chinese Room Guy said they wont :/

Found out I gotta work the weekend during this. Figures :(

Hope they announce more stuff this week, like a schedule for what they're going to stream.

I've decided to lower my expectations because it only leads to disappointment. So I'm going with TLG released this year for the PS4.

This is gonna be one of those things where people hype themselves up beyond reason and then get mad at Sony for not meeting expectations, isn't it?

More or less, but this time is different because we Know pretty much every Sony studio is working on a PS4 project waiting to be announced so expectations are very high.
It is a Nintendo-Direct-hype-like situation.

A new Batman: Arkham Knight gameplay video is coming out today. It'll be available here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jPXtuCDp47s

It's part one in a series of three videos. The third video will debut during Sony's keynote at PlayStation Experience.

WB Press E-mail said:
Stay tuned for the release of the second video in the series on the Batman Arkham social media channels and the third video during Sony’s keynote at PSX.

Note: Not sure when this video is supposed to go up. It's apparently supposed to be up now, but it's still private.

Edit: Vid's on my computer now and uploading to YouTube. So regardless of whether or not they un-private it soon, I'll have it up in a jiff.

Gotta make sure a video package contains Snake jumping off a bridge and Sephiroth in them flames. Pander for maximum effect.

I'm usually not a big fan of montages, but I admit Sony can create some amazing ones. The one they made for the PS4 reveal conference (The one with the "Monster Hospital" song) was INCREDIBLE.

EDIT: This one:

Holy shit, it was amazing and got me hyped to the universe's limits and back.
