PS3: Is There Anything Left For E3?

TheSixthAxis: "Is there anything left for E3? Of course. Sony want to come out on top this year, showing the world that there’s plenty of life left in the PS3 yet and that Move is going to be much more than just a motion controlled gimmick."

I prefer the announcements to be more spread out.

lol how subtle.
I'm sure they got some stuff up there sleeve.

creatchee5847d ago

Sony's never been one for the grandstanding and huge surprises that Microsoft is known for. But that isn't necessarily a bad thing. They let people know what's going to be shown, then show it. It lets you see it more objectively than if you are shocked by a "huge announcement" live on TV or the internet.

Case in point: I marked out when they announced FFIII for the 360 and showed the trailer. It really shouldn't have mattered to me because I would have been able to play it on my PS3 anyway. But such a big deal was made of it because it was a major coup to get another PS3 exclusive - and at E3, where everyone is waiting for such things. Regardless, I would have rather seen more of the other games shown than a trailer that I had already pretty much seen before.

There's room for both types of conference. I'm glad that they do their own thing.

RememberThe3575847d ago

They have done this for 15 years they know what they are doing. They want to focus on a few things at E3 and getting these big announcements out of the way gives them more time to talk about the surprises they have along with Move. We'll see a lot of Move stuff, we'll see some gameplay from exclusives that haven't been seen before(maybe Agent and something from Kojami and Square) and we'll have some more First party announcements (I'm also expecting a new PSN).

There is going to be a lot for us to take in and if they spread it out we wont be overwhelmed mind you we also have Microsoft and their usual surprises ans well as Nintendo.

raztad5847d ago

LBP2, KZ3 and inFAMOUS 2 were ANNOUNCED. Cant anybody tell the difference between announcement and leak?

I think Sony has more than enough to show and surprise people. If they WANTED to announce LBP2, KZ2 and inFAMOUS2 pre-E3 is because they have a plan, dont you think?

DarkFinalGod5847d ago

theres one game everyone seem to forget and its called wardevil but you see Sony got heaps to show just wait some more days will you?

aaronisbla5847d ago

as i told you in the other article, that vapor ware (wardevil) title isn't exclusive to ps3 anymore unless something else has come up. Not sure how some can get excited about the game with only the title and a couple of unimpressive looking screen shots from a couple years ago

DarkFinalGod5847d ago

lol true man i know im excited for nothing really but i hop it turns out to be good because it looks like an action game and i love action games over any genre.

waterboy5847d ago

then no movie cg should look impressive to you, but that engine is going to be a movie ingame, i know youve been brainwashed by the pc fans that tell you ps3 cant do this and that, but whatever believe their bull if you will their article still stands and they know exactly what the machine is capable of, screenshots? uh no, theres like 3 or 4 maybe 5 videos, and they were all the most impressive things ingame visually this gen

aaronisbla5846d ago (Edited 5846d ago )

as harsh as i may be about it, if im wrong i wouldnt mind it, as it means a great game will be available.

@waterboy: it was unimpressive to me for the simple fact thats all we have seen from it. How do we even know its all in game footage? like i said i dont mind being wrong in these cases but im not gonna take the devs word for it at face value, they need to show and prove

Faztkiller5847d ago

I'm tired of this If Sony needed these games at E3 they would not have announced them

ExgamerLegends25847d ago

and FFV13 gameplay I'm waiting for the most.

blumatt5847d ago

And pray to God that it stays exclusive. Actually, I don't really have a problem with it going multiplat as long as they fill the blu ray completely full with towns, airships, sidequests, etc. etc. THEN, they can port it over to the 360 with sub-par graphics and 4-5 discs. There's no excuse for making a game less than what it should be just to accommodate another system. Period.

MajestieBeast5847d ago (Edited 5847d ago )

Who's games have people talked about for the past 4 weeks it certainly wasnt microsoft. Sony is gonna blow the roof of this motha with last guardian alone.

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.

solideagle44d 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

Relientk7744d ago

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.

DarXyde51d 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.

Soy51d 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.

Relientk7753d ago

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

Cacabunga52d ago

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

S2Killinit52d ago (Edited 52d 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.

neutralgamer199252d ago

S2Killinit

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

Cacabunga52d 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

1nsomniac52d ago (Edited 52d 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.

medman52d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

blacktiger52d ago

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_Box53d 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.

robtion52d 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.

darthv7252d 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.

Agent7552d ago

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

S2Killinit52d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14952d ago

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

Lightning7752d 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.
