The sound reminds me of the theme music for the first Deus Ex game. Very cyberpunky.
(Actually, after hearing the two themes now, I noticed they are very similar!)

Bluepoint: "move along people, nothing to see here."

I didn't even know that the Playstation Store had wishlists.

I think I would prefer to go for some rally.

Well.. there is at least one good aspect to its launch date being so far away. It will surely not be a cross-gen game.

@fR_eeBritney yeah, the gunplay and combat is very clunky. I think this is why I never got hooked to the online part of the game.

@johncalmc It is not that hard to imagine "something bigger than Returnal" as their next project could be more elaborated in multiple aspects of a game. For example: multiple characters design, consistent open world/setting design instead of random generated levels, main quest and side quests design, a good and large narrative that uses the characters and make the player feel part of that world. Think of The Witcher 3 or Horizon Zero Dawn, they are bigger games than Returnal, at least in those aspects.

@AdamNovice a Doctor Strange game by Housemarque does sound exciting. Actually, even a game for a brand new franchise based on the superhero theme sounds equally, or even more exciting. Practically all gameplay mechanics created for Returnal could be used in a superhero game. Combine that with SIE expertise in creating great narratives for games and you have all the ingredients for another blockbuster for PlayStation.

Whatever they choose to go for, the next game by Housemarque+PlayStation looks very promising.

CDPR should release an expansion, or a DLC, or something to bring players back to Cyberpunk 2077 since it lost a massive amount of its initial players. It just feels odd and, frankly, a bit sad to play it now. I think someone from CDPR said one time that Cyberpunk will not be like GTA V and he couldn't be more correct, since GTA V was released ages ago and still maintains a huge player base. The game never seems to get old.

Plus, I would have to uninstall Final Fantasy VII Remake to reinstall Cyberpunk, which makes it extra-sad.

Hey Sony. Why not create a android cellphone for gaming called Sony Vita? Make it shipped from the factory with a built in solution to connect with PlayStation controllers and a easy way to send the video/audio output to TV. I think it is a million dollars idea.

I would like Cyber Shadow or a 2d action roguelike like Dead Cells.

I am more interested in the Star Wars game that Massive Entertainment is developing. However, it is great that they are getting to know the current gen consoles with the Avatar game. It will be nice to see what they will be able to achieve with PS5 and what to expect for the Star Wars game.

How do you like cinematic open world action games now?

My wallet immediately and spontaneously opened with gusto. True story.

To think there was a time when Sega went toe-to-toe with Nintendo in the fight for who release the best platformer.. I hope they get it right the next time they go for a remake of a famous franchise, it is not like it's super hard to develop a proper platformer in this day and age, specially for a large company like Sega.

What a complete nightmare it is to play this game for PlayStation users.

I liked the E3 trailer for Starfield. I also liked the video on YouTube showcasing the creative process in the making of it. It is false and unfair to say that there is not creative passion behind Bethesda's games just because of the Microsoft acquisition. I am, off course, sad that I will not be able to play Starfield on PS5.

It would be great if Sony have a nice space exploration RPG game running on PS5 as a response to Starfield, but unless there is already one in the oven, it is almost impossible to have one ready by the time Starfield launches.

Maybe Sony should go explore the industry to find out who is making the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic remake (Aspyr?) and have a chat with them.

I hope Sony make good use of their Evolution Championship Series (EVO) acquisition and promote competitions and tournaments of good fighting games like this.

It will be great for the video game industry if they manage to release a excellent game based on a Marvel IP. I hope the Guardians of the Galaxy game do for Marvel what Jedi Fallen Order did for Star Wars.

By the way, it is just sad that Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin didn't even made to the top 10. Square Enix really did a number in that announcement trailer.

I would like to see at least one more edition of E3 with a live audience before calling it.

@Korgon If I could give Team Ninja just one feedback about this game, it would be this: Take a very close look at the sky in Red Dead Redemption 2 and try to go for it.

The gameplay and combat does look engaging in the demo. I think Team Ninja is doing their job in those aspects. Now Square Enix should step up and give the game the Final Fantasy personality it needs to realize its full potential.
I would change the title to "Final Fantasy I - Stranger of Paradise"

Great.. I hope everything pans out in the end for Sony and us, Playstation users.

I am getting some harsh replys here for speaking my mind, so I will refrain myself a bit, but can we at least agree that making State of Plays is lacking in comparison to a full blown presentation like Xbox did yesterday?

I liked the first part of the game presentation, but I think they over extended themself. That gameplay segment with the terrible frame rate issue, really hurted the game. I am looking forward to it, but after what they did with Avengers, I am very cautious.

Someone should press a big red button at Sony and prepare a XDEV Rescue Mission(s).

Oh, no.. Not like that.. This day was a win for Xbox.

How could they get a souls-like Final Fantasy I remake wrong? How? It looked so good in my head. It just felt nothing like Final Fantasy. It looked like just another your usual indie/fan made souls-like game.

That game, in my head, was supposed to be some kind of response to today's Xbox presentation. It just made what Xbox is going for even more stark: top-notch, unparallel quality games.

I was here expecting this demo to prove me wrong. And now this..

Playstation took a hit today. You can hate me for saying this, dislike my post, but it is the plain, hard truth. It is not a fatal wound, far from it. But it should be a wake up call. Or else, today is going to be a prelude to a turning point for the video game industry.

PlayStation is in trouble.

Elden Ring! In all its glory!

I played the game on Jedi Grandmaster difficulty and survived.

If a sequel to Jedi Fallen Order is even mentioned or hinted (like Elder Scrolls VI or the God of War sequel) it will be the best moment of this month gaming presentations for me.

I believe there is a market space for a single player tactical espionage game like Splinter Cell. The Hitman games sale numbers is an indication of that. Maybe the new 007 game being developed also by IO interactive will fill the space (that is a big maybe).

But yeah.. asking for a tactical espionage single player game based on a classic franchise does feel more and more like screaming into the void.

Online Bomberman on PS4.
It have a bug where sometimes the interface breaks and extrapolates the screen borders, by the way.
The 64 players matches are very fun, thought. And quite nostalgic.

Someone, please, give that man a game to design!

You can call me crazy, but you know which franchise would be cool to have a XCOM-like game? Naruto!

Sad.. When/If it gets fixed and goes on a good sale I will reconsider buying it.

I am very curious about in what state the game will be when it returns to Play Store. Assuming it will return, as CDPR keeps reiterating.

Yes!! I want to try out that sick Demon's Souls PSN avatar!

Speaking candidly, the difference in Aloy's face did bugged me. And the difference not only from the first game, but from the last year's announcement trailler as well.

But that is okay. What really annoys me though is those arguments that games and their protagonists should be more "real". The real reality is that most of women (and men!) would much prefer to have a leaner and more defined face, instead of a more chubby one.

You want real? Ok. Create a mechanic in HFW where if Aloy eats a lot she gets chubby, becomes slower and gets tired faster. And if she, instead, exercise more and eats healthier she gets leaner, becomes faster and gets more stamina. How do you like reality now?

It was a feast to the eyes. At some moment I thought the velociraptor machine was going to pop right out of the TV! I really liked the new gameplay mechanics too.

Also important: I believe that Guerrilla Games didn't show anything that they can't deliver when the game is released.

The game is looking like a winner to me!

That is a interesting bit of information. Maybe Dragon Quest XII can end up being a heavy hitter.
If it does, it will definitely help PS5 in the RPG department. Maybe some kind of response to Microsoft's Fable?

Why didn't they created a visual for Sonic similar to the one they made for the movie? The trees and grass looks realistic and Sonic looks so cartoony. I didn't understand that teaser.

The only Fast & Furious game that should have ever existed is Need for Speed Underground.

I like Akira Toriyama art style, but I must say that the 3D adaptation used in Dragon Quest XI looks weird to me.. What they did for Dragon Ball Z Kakarot on the other hand, that I can dig.

What is this? Amateur hour?

Sony knows that this E3 will be Xbox's chance to make it or break it and I think they will let Microsoft have their moment to show their cards.

On the other hand, the way I see it, Square Enix will be pretty much a PlayStation presentation.

So, combining Horizon Forbidden West State of Play and the Square Enix presentation, Sony (maybe) will end up having the first and last word in this Summer gaming presentations season.

A full blown PlayStation presentation like last year's "The Future of Play" sounds overkill, which is not Sony's style nowadays. So I will be very surprised if something like that happens in June.

"The IGN Expo Is Another Digital Event to Tune in For"

Why is that?

Yes! Finally a game presentation worth watching on the big screen again instead of on the phone!

Looking forward to see this. E3 suddenly became much more interesting.

I understand that a lot of people at comments think $70 is a fair price for Returnal. But, at the end of day, it all comes down to 'how many people agrees that the price is right and buys the game'.
What I am most concerned about Returnal is not its price thought (that is fixable with eventual sales) but with the game longevity.
I think Housemarque was spot on in terms of gameplay and progression for Returnal, but the game's narrative is not on the same level. They should have worked in that area more. If you compare it with Hades for example, there is a difference there.
Regardless of that, there is absolutely no doubt that Housemarque should work on another big project like Returnal. That game definitely brought them to the big leagues. I believe a more mainstream game would give Housemarque a better chance to compete there though.

Basically, Roblox is a Dreams where creators have a way to monetize their work. It is more of a gaming platform then a closed product. It makes perfect sense that it is not on the PlayStation if creators from Roblox don't have a way to profit from their creations. I don't know how it works in that area with Xbox though.

Yes, Sony should make a presentation this summer. A great part of my lack of hype for the showcases is because Sony didn´t announce anything yet. I hope we can see more of the Unreal Engine 5 and it partnership with PlayStation 5.
