The highlight was Monster Hunter.
it was good.
more stuff for me than last time.
fun games shown off exept that predator game.
that could have been great,if it was not a multiplayer shooter.
8/10.
it confirmed that I will buy Medievil
It was ok. About what i expected. The predator reveal was a surprise, as was that animal one that i though was a re reveal of michael ancel's wild originally. Ff7 looks great, although stream i watched was awful. Looking forward to much more info at E3.
I feel like the show could have a little more warmth to it. I love the format, although would like each game to get more time on show. And the narrator is pretty robotic.
That Away game looks really interesting.
It was good. Really like the rapid fire, no time wasted tempo they have going.
That and I liked most of the content they showed.
geez, this article went up fast. it was ok.. they set the expectations beforehand, and pretty much delivered what was suspected. medievil, a couple of new announcements, and FF VII. didn't catch who the developer of predator was.. somewhat surprised sony have licensed it a WWS game though.
That was much better than the first one, mainly due to them making it clearer what to expect, thus giving us better expectations. The Monster Hunter info was the best part for me, cool to see what I think was Nargacuga and Zamtrios and another unknown monster. Medievil looked more fun than I was expecting.
Edit: that wasn't Zamtrios, it was actually a new monster Beotodus
Decent overall, nice little FFVII tease at the beginning and the footage of it looked good. Medievil looks a little too faithful in how it handles but I have fond memories of that game so a little jankyness won't bother me. I was excited when I realised it was Predator and the disappointed to learn that it was an online game, it could be fun though
Didn't have the hype factor that the last one had for me but really solid and showed stuff that should make the none VR players happy.
I thought it was awesome ! Been patiently waiting for a Medievil , finally we got a release date. The MH expansion looks awesome after Days Gone going to get back into MHW. That Predator game looks interesting . I wonder if that was the exclusive Colin Moriarty was talking about ? And FF7 yea still not sure about that ... Combat looks slick tho KH/FFXV style.
Was the predator game a Sony exclusive? Swear I saw worldwide studios?
@AdamNovice yeah I really liked the last one but then again I love my VR games ๐
i do like the short, fast paced nature of it. no faffing about.
i think after we all get our expectations in check for what state of play is going to be โ small drips of updates and maybe a big surprise here and there โ then i think people will begin to enjoy state of play more. after the disappointment of the first one, i was better prepared for this one. it was fine. i hope people get it though their head that these are not meant to be earth shattering announcements and are merely meant to update the community with whatever is in the pipeline โ big or small.
Considering I thought three quarters of it were going to be on Medievil I was quite impressed.Gotta say though,having never played a Medievil game, after seeing that i won't be buying one.
There were a couple of good looking games there and the obvious one at the end..for a second I thought it was revealing its release date in june..until I realised it was E3..doh!
Was a really solid showing can't wait for more info on the predator game despite its flaws i actually really like evolve and if this game is like that then sign me up
FFVII Remake automatically makes this better than the last one, and I liked the last one.
@Ssimsim Yes it did. Quite a curious one.
was that troy baker playing sephiroth and laura baily as aeris? sounded like it to me... can someone confirm?
looks like predator is being developed by IllFonic, in partnership with Fox and SIE.
medievil looks amazing.my boy sir Daniel fortesque is back.la la la.the shadow demons hunt on Halloween.zarok is the target.haha.word up son
Highlight was easily FF7 for me. I'm so excited for that game.
MH World: Iceborne is also looking good.
Didn't care about anything else, but those two games make it decent for me.
It was pretty good, I liked that they put the FF7 menu sound at the beginning to let you know its going to be somewhere on the broadcast, was a bit confused when I then saw capcoms logo come up and monster hunter shown straight after it though. Anybody get the impression that the Predator game will be just like Evolve? Much better than the last state of play. Can't wait to see more of FF7 at e3
I'm excited for the Predator game and I think Final Fantasy VII looks amazing, as someone who has only played XV (and loved it!). I've never played the original MediEvil, so I don't know what to think about this new one. I'll wait for reviews. Also Raccoon Simulator will be GOTY.
Trying to get my expectations in line for these, they're not as exciting or interesting as the Nintendo ones so far... Like they're just a bunch of trailers stuck together, I feel like they need a host or something. Or maybe just longer trailers going more in-depth?
Something feels lacking that's for sure and we're not getting an E3 presser from Sony this year so it'll just be one of these instead? : S
I didn't watch it but barring FFVII:R I'm not really interested in what was announced. The new Ghost Recon reveal is my highlight of today.
PREDATOR ONLINE GAME! Woo! I hope this is the type of stuff Sony wants to do with online. Not sticking their top tier SP talent on one but getting new talent to develop it!
Plus it sounds like it could be an awesome idea!
Wish monster hunter dlc video didnโt take like half the time. Felt like it went on forever. (But I am totally cool with them doing dlc and not just new games at this type of thing)
The sugar glider game was a nice surprise. I'm excited for that one.
7 for me is slightly concerning(top 3 all time for me). I hope the combat isnt just the culmination of 13 and 15 but looks that way. Medievil looks great, Predator=Evolve? But with recognizable enemy? The 4 play coop reminds me of 3d Dot heroes and Lego- which is good lol. The Ancel rip looks awesome lol. Totally thought it was his game. Did i miss something? I like these streams.
@AyanamiReign yes a face to the voice would help. I say do a homage to polygon man for the stream during e3 lol
Sammy?....Sho?....i mean...any thoughts? Lol
MediEvil release date was awesome. The FFVII Remake tease means that this State of Play will be talked about infinitely more than the last one.
I thought it was a good presentation, but for me personally the only game I'm really interested in is Riverbond. Everything else looked solid but not games that really tickle my fancy.
@Ssimsim yea did they buy the Friday The 13th dev? Is that part of the reason behind the immediate lack of support? I know thats not what was reported lol
Mediocre. FF7 re-reveal looked cool. TLOU 2 should've been teased.
What did I think?
I think โฆ State of Play proves that people like me will take 10 minutes like these over 1 and a half hour of PR self-stroking devs and publishers on E3s any day.
It was OK good.
Only played a little bit of the original FFVII so I'm looking forward to the Remake.
The ff7 re-reveal saved the show. Was thrilled as I recognized the predator sounds in what first appeared to be a generic military shooter, just to find out it will most likely be a generic multiplayer shooter... what a buzzkill
All I want them to announce is Sly Cooper 5 on PS4. I hope we donโt go a whole generation without a Sly game!
I got mega hyped for Predator and then saw it was basically Friday the 13th with a Predator. However, overall and OK showing.
It was ok think they could of mixed the 2 a bit better as in put a couple of VR announcements in this one and maybe put the predator and away announcement in the first one would of made both more palatable in my opinion. Most of the announcements were bittersweet for me. The predator one looked interesting then said it was a multiplayer game which lost all interest for me. Away looked really nice and interesting then they said it was a survival game and my interest dropped again but it is one I will keep an eye on. The Final Fantasy one was nice still not sure on combat and would of been nice to show a small glimpse of anything other then Midgar as it was all dark and grimey.
@Neolit Yeah i thought they spent way to much time on Monster Hunter
It was OK, but still a way to go if they want to start getting a Nintendo Direct-style thing going, they just don't have the sense of anticipation and excitement going yet. FF7 was great to see but the others didn't really get my interest.
@playstation1995 learn to use a space bar man!
Final fantasy 7 remaster make it โVery Goodโ for me
@Boucho11 but I'm not in space.im in new York.not need for a weapon.get it space bar.๐.word up son
@playstation1995 ๐๐๐ ok mate! I actually love seeing your posts and your โword up sonโ theyโre just so hard to read without spaces!
I like the style and presentation, my only issue is the woman doing the voice over sounds so completely uninterested in gaming, so it comes across as a bit disconnnected. Would it have been so hard to get someone male or female who works in the gaming industry to voice it.
Glad it wasn't 90% VR this time It was cool but everyone knows now(well some people still don't) that all the good stuff(i.e more PlayStation Big AAA Exclusives) will be shown once the PS5 gets officially announced
@Boucho11 haha thanks. word up son is a slang.it means true that man or woman.let say I say god of war is the best game ever.if you agree with me you would say word up son.im highly influence by old school rap music.im a black man from queens New York.and listening to nas.eric b and rakim.wu tang clan.mobb deep.kool g rap.brand Nubian.a tribe called quest.onyx.black moon.run dmc.epmd.lords of the underground.biggie.2 Pac.grandmaster flash and the furious 5.main source.mic Geronimo.big daddy Kane.slick Rick.the fugee.cnn.royal flush.public enemy.az. etc. word up son
Hahah love it man!
Medievil and FF7 Remake looked great. I was hyped for the Predator game until I saw but genre it was.
As for the Monster Hunter World expansion, no comment since haven't played the base game.
