Sony Press Confrence Wrap-Up

Sony closed their press conference with some amazing in-game, realtime footage from Killzone 2. The video showed an intro sequence of soldiers flying into hot landing zone and tons of gun fights and explosions.

The game seamlessly went from cutscene to gameplay and it looked really good doing it. Some sounds were missing, unfortunately, like gun sounds and explosions.

The graphics certainly looked top-notch and will give a lot of games a run for their money. This is going to be one of Sony's flagship titles and hopefully they can pull it together for a great game. Great graphics only go so far and the gameplay is what will be put to the test.

Neither killzone 2 or MGS4 look as good as gears of war which is old news now lol. im not saying it look bad because its looking great just not as good as gears or call of duty 4 and dont even bother comparing this to crysis. I really do hope it plays well.

Well done to sony tho for getting UT3 and Haze as timed exclusives.
But unfortunalty for you sonyfanboys this can only mean that the 360 version of these two games will be better, disagree and cry all you want but with competition from bioshock, mass effect, halo 3 and call of duty 4, epic games and free radical are going to have to do something extra with both games if they hope to sell any copies on the 360.

fenderputty6869d ago (Edited 6869d ago )

You keep telling yourself that buddy. The ALPHA looks as good if not better then gears when you consider all that's going on, the large destructible environments, and character animation. Hell the hellghast react to where they're being shot. Everyone is talking about the game. The only people even trying to bring it down have their 360's crammed so far up their asses their eye are turning green. Once they enter beta and fix some of the textures, there won't be a game that even comes close.

Disagree with me all you want. Blind fanboys.

CG is so shallow, he only look at reflecting shining thing just like gear of wars. SHINING = GOOD GRAPHICS?

the greatest6869d ago

b4 it was yall dont have no games
check again u better hope your 360
last until halo3 comes out
red ring mother f**ker

Vojkan6869d ago

If Gears of War 2 was released exclusively for PS3, than 360 fanboys would be like "Gears of war 1 looks better than Gears of war 2". Stop it, its pathetic and BORInG!

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle2d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde9d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy9d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga10d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit10d ago (Edited 10d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199210d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga10d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac10d ago (Edited 10d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman10d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box10d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion10d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7210d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7510d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit10d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14910d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7710d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
