Gamers/world: "Please fund FF7 Remake! The world over has been clamoring for it for a decade! It would revitalize console sales in Japan and be a stratospheric success!"
Sony: "No. We will fund Killzone, The Order, and Driveclub instead. We will also be let down when they don't break top 5 in the sales chart the first month they are released, and then fall off completely with nobody remembering them!"

Bloodborne and Street Fighter 5 are hopefully steps in the right direction....

I have a hard time believing the english version of Persona 5 will actually hit in 2015, unfortunately. The japanese version might come out in the end of the year, but Atlus doesn't really do simultaneous worldwide releases. With translation and voice work it usually takes at least a couple of months before they are ready for a US release.
I just don't see them straying from that norm with a game of this size.

Of course they are concerned.
And of course they would say that they are not.
They listed a port and an indie game and promises of a glorious E3. Hmmmm. I bet bosses are telling studio leads to be concerned.

Yeah I'm surprised they didn't list their unannounced upcoming games in this passing comment
Between this and the No Man's Sky "first party release" topic, I think we can deduce that:
No Man's Sky is coming this holiday season 2015.
No Man's Sky will be digital and retail.
No Man's Sky will receive a pretty big marketing push this holiday season.
No Man's Sky will be a $60 title at release.
No Man's Sky won't be coming to other platforms any time soon.
Obviously Sony saw the hype at reveal and have invested to essentially make this a PS exclusive title for now. Smart move, that is if the game really does deliver of course.
About Persona 5, the US Playstation branch has shown themselves to be very aware of the internet community abroad and even gaf specifically. They must be aware how thirsty the fanbase is. It's also an exclusive game. Hence, I could see it being featured at E3 with a release date for this holiday and some Sony marketing behind it. However, I wouldn't be shocked if the game is not coming this year either.

I am concerned about the lack of holiday stuff. Uncharted remaster will fill the gap a bit, but if that doesn't happen, and NMS is delayed, I'll be very disappointed.
The Playstation exclusive third party games coming to PS4 are a lot more interesting to me than the first party Sony games outside of Gravity Rush Remaster, so i guess its just me, but i don't even see why there should be concern for no first party games in holiday season. The year isnt all about the holiday, its only 2 months in which the consoles are gonna sell out anyway

I'm concerned.
If this can somehow drop in 2015, I wouldn't give a single shit about anything else dropping on the PS4.
I doubt it, but god I want it.
Hopefully we will hear something at E3.
Bwahahahahah.

Calling it now!
Last Guardian available in stores right now.... Good luck getting that LE....
Glad I live right near a bunch of stores that would carry stuff like this in that case.
Cause...
That would leak at least 1 week before hand.

Please just give me SOMETHING that's actually exclusive and worthy of being called next gen. So far I've just seen HD'ier versions of games I've already played. Does anyone remember MGS2 and what a leap that was over MGS1 in terms of not just graphics but gameplay?
I can easily see myself waiting 3+ years to buy a console this gen, which is at least 2 more than any previous gen

I think people are concerned because it's the biggest first party title for this holiday and the vita version was fairly short and only single player of i'm not mistaken? I don't have a vita so I never paid too much attention beyond a review or two on release and I can't check while I'm at work. But It hardly seems like a big release unless they add a significant amount of content, leaving the ps4 really hurting for big exclusives for the rest of the year.

My man. I only need the GOTG to release this year for it to be good.
It's not, they adapted the control for the PS4 and added "50% more content" whatever that means, but it's still the same game and story.
Media Molecule themselves are calling it an extension of the original Vita version.

Tbh the only games that I need on PS4 right now are disagea 5 and persona 5, just to release their English versions this year.

Why should they? They will outsell every 3rd party release.

The only games i need exclusive wise this year is P5 and DQ Heroes.
Including 3rd parties MGSV is more than enough for my ps4.

What your asking for is not relegated to consoles, but development in general. Pubs and devs alike have hit a wall in what they feel is an advancement of core mechanics, i think even if we had consoles 5 times more powerful, we'd still be seeing the same games in higher res.
Another part if it is that your not 13 anymore. The days of anticipating the hype factor of brand new games is long gone and so is being "wowed" by things coming out in general.

Western release probably not exclusive after E3. Windows or XB1 as well is my bet.

E3 should be fun. It sounds like they have something in mind and they're being careful not to give it away too soon.
Predicting a bombshell of some magnitude.

Yeah the "PS4 has no games" thing is very dumb and silly. By the same logic, you can say both Xbox One and PC also have no games.

I don't care that much. I just don't find it likely at this point...color me surprised if it does. The more the merrier.

So they have Teraway, Ratchet And Clank, No mans Sky, MGSV marketing, BattleFront.
That's pretty good actually.

What do people want Sony to say? "We have no software this holiday, and we're really fucking worried, fuck. shit"
I feel like I've read this exact post in 2006/7 at the start of the previous gen.
What do i win if your wrong? This is just easy pickings.
I could see a steam release ONE DAY, but XB1? Your takin the piss mate

You do realise that across the board, that is up to the developer's talent and ability first and foremost, and not so much platforms, right?
We've reached a point in gaming where advancements in gameplay that are next-gen, aren't achieved by raw hardware power, but by core game technology & smart game design.
FOX Engine was more instrumental at giving us a great game than "current-gen hardware."

No way is that going to happen, the rpg persona games have never touched the xbox or pc.

No way, I'm sure they would lose money if they release it on XB1. Playstation is where the fanbase is?

I don't like to make a habit of predicting the future, but... what in the world gives you that idea? I mean, PC could be a thing... at least it is possible. But XB1?
What about Guilty Gear, FFX/X-2, Tales of Zestiria, and Star Ocean 5? Are you banking on them coming to XB1 as well?
Not necessarily. And even still we have several weeks to go.
