Live: Watch Sony PlayStation's State of Play Livestream Right Here

Back again

by Sammy Barker Thu 9th May 2019

The reception to the first State of Play was mixed, but Sony's giving it another crack with a 10 minute stream today designed to spotlight MediEvil's anticipated PlayStation 4 remake and a smattering of other announcements. Expectations have been appropriately calibrated this time, so be sure to join us from 3PM PT to see what the organisation has in store.

I reckon we're probably going to see three things during this stream. MediEvil we know is confirmed, and Final Fantasy VII seems very likely. Just leaves one more: any thoughts?

20:18

Hello again, everyone! Quick stream tonight so we shouldn't be here too long. Sony's said that today's State of Play will last about 10 minutes, and will include an update on MediEvil. It all gets underway from 3PM PT/6PM ET/11PM BST.

Wasn't expecting a lot so it lived up to expectation LOL

The only thing that interested me - at least initially - was Predator but lost interest with Asymmetric MP!!

nookie_egg said:

an rpg, a dungeon crawler, a remake of an rpg into an action title, and a game about being a flying squirrel is quite diverse @roe

InsertUsername said:

Was certainly a lot better than the first one.

roe said:

5/10 didn't even enough diversity..

Though I'll still give it a go

Shame about Predator

Quintumply said:

Good stuff

Splat said:

7 out of 10

kacboy said:

Expectations were a lot more in-line this time I think

jdv95 said:

ShogunRok said:

That was solid for a 10 minute show, can't really complain

Riparcade2 said:

Well that was ok I suppose...

roe said:

Nice and to the point. A few interesting trailers and little bits of info. Still think they could do much more with this concept though

Deadlyblack said:

Honestly, Final Fantasy 7 made it go from "not bad" to "hype!"

kacboy said:

That was alright

It was fine

Oh man I love ff7 and ff in general

crimsontadpoles said:

themcnoisy said:

Well I actually took a break to watch the penalty shootout but the timing worked out well

jdv95 said:

do not expect a release for any of the bog 3 people

Areus said:

I'am playing Dragon age while talking to you guys

jdv95 said:

sammy do you have an idea when we could see a review of a plaque tale?

Riparcade2 said:

@roe... same here

Areus said:

Why not do both play days gone and watch

Howdy y'all

roe said:

Dragged myself away from Days Gone for this so if TLOU2 isn't given a date I'm gonna be well mad

jdv95 said:

late i mean

jdv95 said:

tbh it is a maye hour for europeans. last stream was at a better hour

I highly doubt Sony cares if people watch this type of stuff ...Let's be honest how many non hardcore gamers are even aware of State of Play?

jdv95 said:

last stae of play was not bad,it was just not for me (VR). but that's not sony's fault

Areus said:

People hate sony but will still watch there stuff

leucocyte said:

i thought the fomat of the last one was fine.. i don't have a VR headset, but don't begrudge them highlighting all the stuff coming for it, like some seem to have done

craigbigedd said:

Let’s take a gander then👍

get2sammyb said:

Oooh we've got some jazzy techno

jdv95 said:

maybe demon souls or death stranding but only because kojima has been teasing it

Areus said:

I'am sure they are watching

get2sammyb said:

I actually quite liked the last State of Play to be honest

get2sammyb said:

Well there are a lot less people in here than the last one so I guess Sony put people off

leucocyte said:

medievil, FF VII, death stranding new trailer.

Quintumply said:

Howdy y'all

Areus said:

Everyone always wants their minds blown away if they don't get that they Riot

roe said:

Evening all

leucocyte said:

at 10 mins, i don't expect to see more than 3 or 4 trailers.

get2sammyb said:

Many people will be upset, it's the Internet

Areus said:

How many people do you think are going to be upset no matter what sony shows

jdv95 said:

bluepoint's game could make an appearance i think.

Areus said:

I wonder how people would react if we got a new Jak and Daxter game

I'm guessing another Ratchet and clank game

jdv95 said:

good evening belmont

Good Evening everyone

jdv95 said:

ok so i'm about 30 minutes early.but looking forward to it. let's just see and wait before having expectations.
