Prediction: Sony will announce their PS5 event date on Tuesday June 9th for Monday June 15th.

Interesting and very possible. June 12th has zero chance. You don't make a big press announcement on a Friday, even an intern knows that. Best days are Tuesdays and Wednesdays for the news cycle.

That is such a terrible take.

When I made that comment I was considering those studios on their own merits. Neither is a proven AAA studio.

Ninja Theory have been, up until now, an independent studio They’ve made some games with decent production values and had some level of critical acclaim, and the only time they’ve been near AAA territory was with someone else’s ip (DmC). I think they will become a very capable studio, but they’re just not there yet.

Its a similar story with Obsidian. They’ve done some good work, especially last gen with Bethesda ip, but they’re not a polished AAA studio. They’ve succeeded in the last 8 or so years (since being fucked over by Bethesda) by producing reasonably selling games on a modest budget. Pillars of Eternity was a kickstarter project ffs.

Xbox Games Studios have definitely acquired a couple of very high potential studios here, and with investment over the generation the results could be exceptional. But they’re not there yet.

I didn’t make a comparison to Sony studios, but you did and in doing so you’re just making yourself look a bit silly. SIE have 13 studios, so by your reckoning 95% i.e. 12 of 13 are mid tier. That’s just a terrible hot take, there’s at least 7 or 8 top tier studios there, 5 of them have produced games that have sold over 8 million this gen.

Wasn't talking about sales. Rare sold millions with Kinect Sports so take that for what it's worth.

But hey to each his own, I don't see what Sony Bend, PD, Media Molecule, Sucker Punch amongst others have produced quality wise this gen that an Obsidian or Ninja Theory haven't matched or surpassed already with previous games.

They have pretty good marketing team specialised in delays , I wouldn't be surprised if the event delayed to August, or September

The more time passes, the more ridiculous Sony's situation becomes.

The time for the presentation of PS5 (and of this presentation video already announced) MUST be June.
(can't be July and doesn't have to be August or September)

Otherwise, Sony can safely send the presentation video of PS5 online even IMMEDIATELY ONLINE ON YOUTUBE, from a link posted on Twitter and end of story.
(so in the end they still manage to get 100% the same marketing and visual)
But the point is that Sony cannot take the luxury of waiting in silence indefinitely, regarding the presentation of PS5 that she has announced and postponed.
 
Either way they ought to reveal the console design soon, right? It will get leaked

There's no reason for Sony to hold off on the reveal of what the PS5 looks like, since MS has already revealed their XSX, unless Sony hasn't finalized the design yet to make it work with that new, multi-layer, multi-facet cooling system!

You’re deluded. I know why you can’t see it, it’s because you’re looking at the world through green tinted lenses. Xbox do have top tier developers - Turn 10, 343, Coalition, maybe Playground. Obsidian and Ninja Theory just aren’t in that league even though there’s every reason to believe that they could be, one day.

What have exactly have Obsidian and Ninja Theory produced that’s so great?

Hellblade Senua's Sacrifice is a visually impressive game that is boring as fuck, Bleeding Edge is garbage and a complete flop. Their track record is one of games with great production values that just don’t sell. This was also true in the PS3/360 gen with Heavenly Sword and Enslaved which flopped hard.

Obsidian have given us Outer Worlds, an enjoyable RPG, but modest budget and therefore comIng with a lot of limitations. And Pillars of Eternity, a really good Kickstarter game. It’s a perfect example of why they’re not a top tier developer but why you should be really hopeful that MS budget will turn them into one.

FWIW I think Obsidian will really deliver for MS as the next generation progresses whilst Ninja Theory will flatter to deceive.

Totally. Ninja Theory and Obsidian are both AA developers with potential to become top studios now they have Microsoft's resources behind them. But even then, Ninja Theory have never really shown that much in terms of talent.

Sucker Punch, Polyphony, Sony Japan, Media Molecule, Insomniac and Sucker Punch are clearly all a step above.

Naughty Dog, Guerrilla, and Santa Monica are in a completely different league. Hell, they're in a different league even compared to Microsoft's best studios. They're among the best in the industry.

Lol bro it ain't that serious really. I just disagree with your point of view on those two specific studio's and what is regarded as quality. Nothing to get mad about. I'm sure Days Gone had a bigger budget than Hellblade and The Outer Worlds combined yet those two games were critically acclaimed while Days Gone was rated average (70 Meta).

I'm okay to park it here as we obviously don't see things in the same light.

Edit: typos

They were never gonna anounce it on a Sunday were they?

Really hoping we get something tomorrow. I think it's Floyd's funeral on Tuesday so the event could be Wednesday or Thursday. If not then it's going to be the week after I suppose.

Hey, I'm not from the USA. How are things there? Did riots and looting stop? Do you still have big demonstrations there? Someone here said Floyd's funeral was going to be the 4th, but now you say it will be Tuesday. Are you sure it will be Tuesday?

The console enters mass production in the first half of this month, so the design must be final since some weeks or months ago. They must show it in the first half of this month if don't want it to be leaked.

The longer they wait, the worse it will get for their PR and Marketing. There will also be a much bigger risk of something getting leaked out. They are starting to tread on a minefield here, things are already leaking. Here is a list

*Demon'S Souls for end of the show

*Bloodborne for PC/PS5 for end of the show

*Call of Duty 2020 Pre-alpha footage leaked already.

*Resident Evil 8 to make appearnce at the show. Set in castles, villages, forests and caves. Themed with occult horror, spirits and werewolves. Think Resident Evil 4 combined with Resident Evil 7. Female protagonist, male antagonist . Chris Redfield involved. January 26th, 2021 release date, cross gen.

*Horizon Zero Dawn 2 hinted at by Guerilla Games and prior leaks

*Silent Hill Reboot, this needs no explanation. Tons of leaks

*Dead Island 2 prototype footage leaked from 2015 PC Build. Possibly being reintroduced as a cross gen game, could be at the show.

That's a lot of leaks already. If all of these are true, then I'd say half of the show already leaked.

A lot of these 'leaks' seem to be from random people with no history/previous leaks that ended up being true.

I know we're all chomping at the bit for news but let's have some standards at least.

As for the reveal, I'd still bet on next week. US protests seem to have died down somewhat, all officers have been charged and MN has seemingly changed its rules with regard to the sort of violence police can commit and in what circumstances.

If there's such thing as a 'job well-done' I'd say this is it and Sony can go ahead with their reveal with a clean conscience. I can't see any more social points being scored from delaying beyond the end of next week. Plus, EA's event has been postponed so perhaps Sony will take that spot?

If the wait it still to be longer, they deserve to have the full event leaked
 
What is with all the underlines in everyone of your posts?

And Sony doesn't have to do shit just because you say so🤷‍♂️

People are used to the demanding tone online but.. I am sure what we are all really thinking is
"My disappointment is immeasurable and my Thursday was ruined" and "Please Sony, we need it... please....
I want you to show it to me, and then I'll PAY you if you let me touch it and play with it, please.... I will do anything....
dont make me wait or I'll start to leak...."

You speak like I gave an order to Sony.
But, actually, I'm just waiting to finally see the PS5 event that they have promised us all for this June.

These leaks are of varying credibility, but if they are all true that is the entire show. You have your expectations way too high if you think they are going to show more than 7-8 major games.

By June we had the following games revealed for PS4 between PS Meeting and E3
- Killzone Shadowfall
- inFamous Second Son
- Drive Club
- Deep Down (Cancelled)
- The Order 1886
- Knack
- Destiny
- Kingdom Hearts 3
- Final Fantasy XV (technically a referral)
- Mad Max
- The Witness

i can't remember if they debuted COD and FIFA as well at the PS Meeting or Sony E3 2013.

Perhaps Sony changed their minds and decided they want to only show 3 major games this time around but history has shown they reveal quote a few major games at their events.

Sounds pretty orderish to me

I hope they announce the date today.
I think that the PR positivity of the delay, if any, would be totally lost if they take much longer. Seen that other delays just took a week to reschedule, it would make evident that PS5 delay had nothing to do with what was happening in the US and people would start to think that sony, the PS5 or its games have problems.
 
The whole situation is worrying. I have no hopes for thevevent to happen anytime soon.
Sony must have hired alot of "woke" staff and they seem to be also in high positions.
That Sony Twitter Account is a good example.
That Person/s behind that are disgusting.
I cannot find it now but there was an answer to a follower about the looting and endangerment of innocent poeple.
Sony Twitter seriously answered that:
,,no lifes matter until black lifes matter"
That is a disgusting statement to make and it shows that actually more people must support that shitshow.
To me it appears that woke poeple already choking the company and its employees from inside.

So, with that twitter Account responsible de facto controlling Sonys stride i am not sure how Sony could hope to make a PS5 reveal in July let alone June..
Even with the protest comming to a stop those disgusting persons could just complain that the ,,protests just happend days/ weeks before and that now is no time to celebrate something".
Wrenches my gut to see more and more people a forced in a chokehold that could destroy their lifes , careeres , and relationships if they utter a wrong word..

People do seem to underestimate how important this event is for sony. If they receive any kind of negative publicity their launch and future sales could be damaged. I feel that they won’t announce a new date until they feel comfortable that they won’t receive criticism. I still doubt it will launch this year. We are looking at spring 2020 realistically, which might work better to allow consoles to be manufactured in sufficient quantities, because the ps5 will sell 20m plus in 6 months.

What exactly is disgusting about the sentence,,no lifes matter until black lifes matter" to you?

I don´t want to create a political fight here but come on my dude. You are better than this bullshit. Have some compassion and human decency . Trust me it won´t hurt you.

Because the statement is suggesting that it doesent matter if for example a 5 year old dies in the protests because for example a looter throws a stone in a car .
It is a disgusting Avenger style mindset.
It is basicly saying that countless innocents could die without worrying about it.
Law needs to be in the hands of the state but not a looting horde of cultureless monkeys who use every excuse that comes across to destroy and kill and loot once more.
And btw.. what about black on black kills?
There are several reports now that black poeople died in the protest due to black people doing..

No, it is not saying or implying any of the things that you just mentioned. That´s your twisted way of looking at things but this has nothing to do with reality.

How exactly is the statement connected to looting and a dead kid? WTF?!? All these people are demonstrating for is equality! And this is what scares you? What about black on black crimes? Does that mean that police can brutalize people in the street? How fucking out of touch with reality one has to be?


Stop hiding behind your stupid racism and use your brain. And please don´t bring this retarded shit to a fucking video game forum. Jesus fucking christ.

Edit: and by the way: there is a big difference between those who are protesting in peace and the ones looting. This is not the BLM movement. You will always have people who will use those kind of situations to create chaos.

I do reject the "Racist" sticker
Why do you think i would support police killing black people for nothing?
This assumption is not logic, given the statements that i just gave you.

So with that fundamental different viewpoint on the statement ,, no lifes matter until black lifes matter"
I ask you to lay it out to me what you think that it does mean.
