Welcome to the blog. The biggest gaming experience of the year is almost here, E3! All the eyes of the gaming world point towards the Los Angeles conference expo, looking forward to the next big announcements from the major players in the gaming industry. Press briefings, gaming booths and conferences galore defining the next gaming year ahead.
One of the main conferences the gaming world is looking forward to is from Sony. Major rumours floating around about game releases and a new improved 8th gen console (coded the "neo"). In this blog I point out my predictions of the Sony E3 Conference, whether you agree with them or not, or would add or change anything, please feel free to comment in the comment section below.
- Starting with PSVR, a big trailer and detailing games for it. Announcing more preorders available at the current price tag.
- Then a GT Sport gameplay trailer, hopefully showing what the game would be closer to looking like. Polyphony did state the GT Sport event in London a few weeks ago was at 50% development.
- Capcom comes on stage, A Monster Hunter PS4 game, announcing that Nintendo's exclusivity of the IP has ended. Also pointing out can be remote played with psvita (psvita having its own set controls), which would be great news for Vita owners as Monster Hunter was one of the big hitters in the PSP's lifecycle.
- More on Shenmue from the developers, confrming the funding of the kickstarter has been reached and alpha/beta gameplay.
- A Horizon Zero Dawn live gameplay from Guerilla devs. Confirmed release date.
- Then a Playstation All Stars 2 announcement, a trailer but having one very quick scene showing crash bandicoot spinning in the background. The presenter for that segment says something along the lines of "did you see it?", repeats that particular scene, crowd goes nuts and then presenter announces a Crash Bandicoot game and developers (assuming Sanzaru (the guys who did Sly Cooper 4) with supervision from Mark Cerny). Sweetening the deal further, announcement that if you preorder the next Crash game you also get a HD Remaster of the PS1 Crash Bandicoot trilogy! Crowd goes even more nuts, some faint in excitement.
- Then Marvel come on (probably Kevin Feige) announcing the infamous devs Sucker Punch will be developing the new Spiderman game. Crowd goes nuts.
- The Last Guardian gameplay and release date
- A PS4 SLIM (or they might fast forward the Neo depending on Microsoft's conference) predicting a £350/$400 price.
- Finally Sony Santa Monica come on and release a trailer for the new God of War game, likely in Norse mythology. Crowd goes nuts.
Here are my predictions and thanks for reading this blog post.
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
The charity event will be streamed live from Gamescom in August.
Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.
i think capcom will most likely show something from resident evil and street fight 5 rather than new monster hunter..i wish if they show new devil may cry tho...highly unlikely :(
