Sony is really bad at doing this whole press conference thing though. I honestly wouldn't put it past them to blow their load before E3 and then waste half of the presser on Ubisoft multiplatform games.

Because they do it every year. :[

It's so close now, I don't think it'll be blown.
 
Let's leave TGS to the pointless hordes of moe games and monster hunter clones, like it is every year. E3 should be a neutron bomb of announcements for PS4.

TGS is for Japanese devs so it's better for those games to be shown. Versus XIII or some game would be good time to see that. All of the big announcements don't need to be here.

I think its going to be different this year. If they had to blow their load, they would have done it already. I mean, we are barely one day away from it.

this guy keeps posting the same pessimistic thing over and over. blah
 
Was talking of this one, actually:

Wow is this real? If so you'd think they would use a Sony T.V if this photo was taken at Sony H.Q

Oh, I'm sure you're right. I just wouldn't put it past them, because they pretty much always fuck this stuff up. Ever since this gen started, Sony has been flailing pathetically during their pressers, since almost every third party abandoned them and their FP games always get announced at other events.

I want them to do well. I truly, sincerely do, since if they fuck this up I'm not getting any next-gen consoles. I just haven't seen any indication from Sony themselves that they're going to pull it off. Everything's wishful thinking, and as a Versus loyalist I've learned that wishful thinking never pays off.

Is The Last Guardian E3 2009 trailer the best trailer for something that will never get released?

Conference won't be one hour. They have to cover numbers and PS3 and Vita. PS4 itself might get 1 hour though or maybe a little more. Since they are going on last they don't really have a tight time constraint if they need to go a little long. I'm sure they are ready to change certain things in their conference too depending on what Microsoft does in theirs.

Did they mention sales last year? I think they're done with that.
I hope they don't waste too much time on stupid speeches on how great the Playstation brand is and blah blah blah

They should get all that bullshit out of the way with usual 10 minutes speech Jack Tretton gives at the start of every E3 and be done with it.

I'm personally hoping for as much of PS4 as we can get.
They shouldn't waste anytime on PS3 other than mentioning the reviews of The Last of Us and a few games that are yet to be released, and should not waste time on Vita unless they have something significant to announce. If they don't, just talk about it as part of the PS4 remote play on Vita

PS4 should be front and center of this show.
If this is indeed the full unveiling where they talk about OS, UI and Online (Playstation World?), that alone could take half an hour.

One thing that gets me is they have yet to go into the entertainment side of the ps4. Are they planning on waiting for a separate event to do it or possibly will just bring it up shortly at E3? I mean they have an entire division so I'm kind of surprised they themselves havn't thrown in the hat toward entertainment.

So if Sony have a bad press conference you won't buy the console, regardless of what games are coming out?

Didn't they say they'd get into that stuff later.. Although.. Technically, this.. Is... Later.?

This time I don't think much if anything will be leaked. If anything We've gotten more info here from "insiders' than anyone else.

Once the conferences start I think there will be very little chance for things to get leaked.

When I say "fuck this up", I mean the launch of the PS4 in general, rather than just their presser. So far, the only game announced for the system that I want to play is inFamous, since I love those games. I don't - can't - buy a console to play only one game, so if they screw up E3, the chances of there being games to draw my attention to the PS4 are very, very slim.

So I'm really hoping Square has something to show that'll keep me interested, because so far an endless horde of Western "experience" games isn't really doing much to hype me up. I would also probably be psyched if one of Sony's internal developers announced an RPG, but it doesn't sound like the timing is quite right for that to happen.

Sorry if I'm being a downer, guys. I don't mean to be. I just don't want anyone to get as hyped as I did the last three times Versus was being "hinted" at showing up at a conference and then we got Lightning garbage instead. In an ideal world, my skepticism will prove wrong and we'll all be happy tomorrow night. :)

Yea not sure either possibly later in the summer but this would be a good time to talk about it since they have ears and eyes all in one place

Was hoping they would keep the custom background thing for PS4. Me like....me like

EDIT: oh was this just a fan mock up then?

Is this the first press conference with their new marketing department? The PS4 reveal was well put together. Hopefully this is better than usual.

Seriously, you should probably just stop talking since you're reaaallllly being a downer even if you don't mean to be.

And Versus was never hinted at actually showing until this year and maybe 2011 but even then they said it wouldn't show that year. -shrug- If anyone got hyped in years before, it was because they hyped themselves up.

The Meeting was the first. You could see their influence on the cool looking montages with draws and everything else. I really like their style.

The reveal is their first I think. I also think the new marketing team brought in the live action commercials starting with GOW and Last of Us. So expect some drawings, blue particle effects and Apple-esque dev talk videos.

They're not 'blowing their load before E3'. Get that crap out of here.

I'm just ready for this conference to happen so I can get this sick feeling out of the pit of my stomach and some backflips around the house.
