No Kena is making me think that it's getting a significant delay because if it was coming out in the next two months then it would surely have turned up this week. Which makes me think that it was going to be September but with everything else releasing I think it's been pushed much further back.

That's an awful date to release it now.

Picking three new characters is such a strange choice. Yasmine looks like a retooled Makoto like they did with AKI over Fang.

It was good but good lord the stream quality was atrocious.
I wonder how Sony feel about two big games that had a big hand in both financing and marketing both didn't see the state of play as worth enough to be at.

@Fartingale he makes wonderful games but his team can never optimise to save their lives. That's why The last guardian took so long because it couldn't run on PS3

@Frmknst You must have been loving those framerates 😉

I'm going to watch it after tomorrow's live stream for 3.0. Nice work IGN, I bet Hoyo are thrilled with them lot right now.

@SMJ Sometimes game feels can be difficult to get across in a trailer. I rather liked the environmental damage that happens in combat.

@ShogunRok I wouldn't put it above the more dedicated first person shooters but compared to the likes of Fallout and Far Cry I think it holds up better.

Santa Monica were well within their right to respond. They've spent years making this game and their very proud of it and were so excited to show it to everyone, only to be meet with thousands of "I don't want to be playing as a woman and the cube is stupid." It most be bloody demoralising for them. So when you have a corporate run twitter account using your work to make the same digs (albeit light heartedly) that the haters were regurgitating, at some point they understandably want to say "enough is enough."

@AdamNovice Lol I like most of the Moore movies but yeah I can't defend that one lol.

@wildcat_kickz How can you not like Bond saving the world whilst dressed as a clown?

@Balaam_ Tbh I still prefer it over Quantum of Solace.

@get2sammyb I'm excited by the story possibilities linking with the last two games. Like when Kratos went through a portal in Alfheim and when he came back Atreus was surrounded by dead elves despite not being capable. Or who summoned the world serpent when Atreus was sick, wasn't actually Faye all along and Santa Monica had been playing the long game this entire time?

I know him when Randy Orton RKO'd him at Wrestlemania.

@Pat_trick Well they've had a few so it's possible.

@Nei Can't help it, someone has to set the balance right. 😉

@get2sammyb I've never seen a franchise where so many want to create a narrative that it wasn't successful.

@rockyofficial And yet the franchise has sold over 40m copies despite that so it obviously has strong staying power.

@Scottyy That's what I expect will happen. Which is actually quite refreshing because usually we get stories where the X-Men already exist.
@jly1987 I don't know it seems like the going rate these days, they probably started full development in 2022. When it was announced I was convinced that they hadn't started as it seems pretty common for Marvel games to get announced early.

@UltimateOtaku91 I think that's a fair score to give based on your interests.

@ElusiveBounty So all games are meant to be one and done now unless it reinvents the wheel? Sony count Tokon as 1st party because of Sony Xdev's involvement, it's irrelevant how you classify it. And I named Intergalactic because I was referring to Sony's current lineup because your giving the impression that they don't have much good coming.

It'll be interesting to see how it plays, I didn't like how it looked. They turned Horizon's incredible artstyle and made it into a generic Asian fantasy game. Say what you want about Hunters Gathering at least it stands out more, it's just stupid that people see cartoony graphics and think Fortnite.

@ElusiveBounty
Kena
Marvel Tokon
Wolverine
Until Dawn 2
Intergalactic
God of War Laufey
That's a pretty good lineup.

Will probably be shown at the Xbox event which is a strange move by Sega because Persona's fanbase is on PlayStation.

@Brigurugi My condolences.

@Brigurugi You're from the U.S. I'd sit this one out sweetie.

@Frmknst Huh?!
Bancho the chef
Until Dawn 2
And God of War Laufey? And no leaks don't count. Sorry to burst your bubble but not everyone is as negative as you.

I think that's the best way to approach it, and open world doesn't suit Wolverine, plus it would make it look more like a Spider-Man resin.

I also found it interesting in the Eurogamer that in this world, the X-Men don't exist which could some interesting story beats.

@Boxmonkey Yeah that's utter rubbish, Xbox haven't been relevant competition since the 360 days and even that it was rather artificial because they had a year headstart and a lot of people had to buy new consoles because of RROD.

@skinny-pete What worries me is that there are a lot of people who genuinely think other parties can do better, including Clacton's often absent court jester.

Considering all the global issues it's had to face I think the PS5 really well to sell near 100m units.

That gives it a couple of weeks till Tokon then which isn't ideal for either game but hopefully both find their audience.

I've only started the trial today so I didn't know what features were new, so thanks for that info. I'm still trying to get into the mentality needed for an extraction game but the presentation remains exceptional and it's one of several reasons why for all it's problems I still believe Sony need to keep backing Bungie.

@Frmknst I love how you frame your opinion like it's some objective truth.

@Nei It's what infuriating, it's so disingenuous that has no merit.

@Ludacritz No they said they didn't want to spend three to 4 games going over the Norse saga.

@Skinny-Pete Not so easy when people come regularly for gaming news only to smacked with the God of War leak as the main story. As soon as you see the headlines that's it, you can't forget it.

@SuplexingTrains That's perfectly fine but you can't deny that far too many people come into these things expecting the world then get mad when they don't get it.
For me I'm always open minded about any game in any genre because I believe in giving a game a chance to impress whether it be watching multiple trailers or playthroughs or demos or just buying it. I feel that's a more healthy way to approach things.

@SuplexingTrains Yeah but there was quite of variety of genres shown so if someone watched and had no interest in any game shown them you can't help but feel that some just have a very narrow range of tastes.

@RBMango I'm convinced it's going to be at SGF. Sony usually throws a bone at Geoff's shows. If it doesn't show then I think Sony are going hold on to it till much later because if it releases in September then it's going to get slaughtered.

@Imaculado_Lord Absolutely agree with you mate. I accept that some wanted a new IP or prefer to play as Kratos but there's far too many who conform to the "pushing an agenda narrative" that I can't stand.

@Imaculado_Lord The moment that social media was created, it allowed everyone to have an opinion even if they have nothing of worth to say.

@get2sammyb Or Capcom with Resident Evil and Monster Hunter.

@Propaperpusher The same Sony that showed off three single player games last night?

The likes to dislikes ratio on GoW was depressingly predictable. It'll be the same when Intergalactic is shown again.

@Jacko11 Seems pretty standard to me. I just think your reading way too much into it.

@Jacko11 It's still planning and logistics, you can't book out loads of cinema screens in just 3 days notice.

@Lup Kratos didn't have much of a character to derail in the first place, if anything GoW 2018 actually put him on the tracks.

@Krlozgod To my knowledge: Calling All Cars, Twisted Metal 2012 and Drawn to Death.

@wildcat_kickz Yeah but it's the same argument effecting Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey where despite being based on a myth people think they need to conform to historical accuracy and I just think it's so creatively limiting.

Saros in the top ten must mean it's a smash hit now? I mean some regarded it as a flop when it wasn't in the top ten so that must be how this works.

@Jacko11 Or the much more likely reason is because they booked cinemas for the event so they to give two weeks notice to sell the tickets.
