This would honestly kinda ruin the story for Part 2, it’d confirm that story was aimless in some bits as many storylines were left inconclusive and direction for some of them were baffling at best, and I’m not asking for a happy ending but there’s a chance to tie up all storylines in another game, if they really can’t then they shouldn’t have made Part 2 the way they did.

@AdamNovice Literally the reason I bought an Xbox One back in the day, just to play GTA 4 and RDR 1 decently as they ran pretty bad on PS3, it’s awful to admit but I’d take another low effort port at 60 FPS just like they did with RDR1.

Say what you want about PS players, we do buy games lol

Lmao Microsoft Gaming desperately needs money, $60 standard and even early-access…

Surprisingly good value.

This industry is just f*cked. What incentives do any developer have to actually deliver a good product? Either way they’re being laid off.

Honestly I couldn’t care less, just give me a great campaign in a fun sandbox.

“One which paints PlayStation as a complacent competitor, coasting while it soaks up the rewards of its rival’s imploding console business”

Is the statement wrong tho?
I understand that moving forward there’ll be no way to compete with Microsoft’s 30+ studios but isn’t Sony being complacent right now launching $700 consoles and having more remasters and remakes than new games?

And sorry but this is the second article in a few days that reads as “stop criticizing Sony please!”

Phil -bit my own tongue- Spencer

Tides of Annihilation and Saros. Tho I feel it should’ve been revealed until gameplay was ready to show, a cinematic does nothing for me.

My counter guess is that it gets cancelled this year.

@ButterySmooth30FPS Thanks for exemplifying it, there’s lots of comments doing valid criticisms in this very thread, yet you invalidate it as ‘doomerism’ and ‘trolling’, exactly my point.

I honestly find it more draining that some people, including who wrote this piece, just can’t take ANY criticism to the brand, they just feel the constant need to say you’re wrong and you should be grateful for what you saw instead of just accepting different opinions, like what’s the point of this article? It’s only creating more and more discourse between fans, because we always seem to be wrong, never ever Sony.

Looks just incredible and it’s the studio’s first game! Asian devs are carrying this generation hard…

@ChrisDeku Fair answer to a dumb statement but there’s really no comparison, Ninja Gaiden 2 is from 2008 and not even a first-party, Days Gone is from 2019 and it’s just the latest in a dozen of unnecessary remasters.

They have the whole catalogue of PS3 games to remaster as most games never got released elsewhere but yet they’re remastering games already playable on PS5 and even already enhanced with some patch, after such many of them is laughable now.

This means GTA 6 either comes out in November or in 2026. My bet is 2026 sadly.

I honestly think they surpassed expectations because they gained some if not many Xbox customers, not necessarily caused of their multiplatform push (maybe it had to do a bit), but mostly because there’s just no Xbox consoles available in many markets outside the US plus I didn’t see one single deal or sale for the consoles.
PX and other media reported a big scarcity in the UK during the holiday months, plus you can find comments from pretty much everywhere saying the same thing, I’ve seen it personally here, I could even get a PS5 Slim with disc for much, much cheaper than a digital Series X.

Casual customers, or parents looking for a gift who have no loyalty to any brand will see that one option is unavailable or more pricey and they’ll just buy the other one, plus it’s now clear that PS5 is the most attractive console for both casuals and more dedicated fans, the platform is rock solid right now even with all the turmoil around live-service failures.

@sanderson72 You can still do a general backup that includes saves, I’ve been doing every couple of months just for precaution, it takes some minutes but much better than paying $80 annually at the very least.

Had PS Plus since 2015, upgraded to Deluxe for 2022 and 2023 but since the price hike I’m out, can’t even justify paying for Essential.

@Dreman99 At first I thought it was a direct sequel as the suit is kinda similar and the protagonist was talking about finding someone which I thought was Selene.

Why this wasn’t on yesterday’s SoP!? It’d have instantly become a highlight, I really don’t get Sony sometimes…

@Loamy Don’t you remember where Ghost of Yotei was announced? At State of Play.
Where did Sony debut gameplay for God of War Ragnarok, Helldivers 2 and even Concord? At State of Play.

In 2020-2021 the distinction existed but it’s been a long time since first-party games do show up more often than not in State of Play, plus we haven’t got a good showcase since freaking 2021! Stop excusing this embarrassment.

Honestly it was the best announcement out of today.

I’m beyond excited for a new game from Housemarque but revealing one of their games, which are 100% gameplay with a CGI trailer is definitely not doing them any justice.

Poor, the only thing that saved it from being an utter disaster was Housemarque’s new game.

Seriously, just 1 PS Studio announcement plus yet another unnecessary remaster (not the one we all wanted) is so disappointing.

Also, it’d be beyond ironic if this launches on Switch but not Xbox, when all Xbox games are being ported to PS5.

Please don’t let this be the highlight of the event…

Visually it’s going to be stunning in a PS5 Pro, but the game itself is just boring.

I really wish the recently rumored God of War Greek collection remastered is real, that plus some new look at DS2 or Yotei would be more than enough for a great State of Play.

I don’t think there’s still much left to do in the Greek mythology, it already showed in Ascension they were running out of things to do and story to tell, I’d honestly prefer having remasters for the Greek saga (with PSP games please) and set the new entry for a new direction entirely.

It also raises serious questions about Sony’s increasingly lack of communication, they’re even giving away 5 days for PS+ but no explanation whatsoever.

Ok, now I’m really having 2011 flashbacks.
I believe it hasn’t been down that long since that time.

It’s ridiculous it’s gone down this long, no other competing service has had an outage for more than 12 hours already!

Does anyone actually doubt it’s coming? The only reason it isn’t confirmed yet is because the port ain’t ready and MS already has a stacked lineup of ports for Spring.

Press [X] to doubt. I have no doubt yet no proof it’s coming Summer 2026.

Lmao they are beyond clueless…

At least SEGA had the decency of getting out clean being transparent and not outright lying repeatedly letting users stranded mid-generation as Microsoft is doing, it’s creating bad faith among their most loyal fans.

@StrickenBiged Right? Yesterday was Halo, today is Fable, tomorrow will be Starfield. There’s no point in keep speculating if it’s almost a fact that everything is coming over.

@get2sammyb But your article is using his tweet as source, at least other sources like Tom Warren, Andy Robinson or particularly Tom Henderson have more credibility, but then again, at this point everyone expects it to happen, it’s still gonna be a bombshell when it drops for sure.

Again, stop using Jez Corden as a source, a year ago he literally said “no, xbox isn't porting it's console exclusives to playstation. its just hard hopium from fanboys.”

Also, at this point everyone expects every Microsoft title to be on PS5 (and Switch 2), in fact I fully expect at least Starfield and Gears to also make the jump this year, feel free to use this comment as source, it has more credibility than Jez Corden lmao

Welcome to the irreversible death of Xbox and rise of Microsoft Gaming.

Will this be the year where Sony finally has a good showcase? We’ve gone since 2021 without a massive good show like we used to get at E3 last gen.

@MasterChiefWiggum They’re no longer any competition to Sony tbh, this year they’ll be just another partner/publisher for Sony and Nintendo.

Another W for PC users. See what you can get when you complain instead of being complacent?

High on Life is one of the funniest experiences you can get, if you have simple humor or like Rick & Morty this will be a blast for you.

Thanks Sony, you make it so easy to not subscribe to PS Plus lol

They need only to remove Hermen Hulst and they’ll have a winner chessboard.

It’s nice to see some excitement instead of the usual Ubisoft hate, I’m definitely playing this day one.

@Sacrosanctus Couldn’t agree more with you, and since that 2021 showcase we haven’t had a good show like that, it’s been beyond disappointing this generation and it’s all because most if not all PS studios were making live service BS that got cancelled, effectively losing 5 years of development time and money, a disaster, just like Push Square out it a few days ago.

@themightyant Yeah pushing forward development doesn’t seem to be a thing so I’m still expecting it 2026-2027, for the Venom game I really don’t know what’s going on, if it comes out this year they need to reveal it ASAP, if the next SoP goes by and it isn’t mentioned then my guess would be that it’s delayed or cancelled.
