I'm struggling to keep up with these announcements.

Same.

Is it just me, or does it feel like a Nintendo Direct to anyone else? We’re jumping from trailer to trailer and getting through this stuff very quickly; seems like they’ve learned their lesson from E3.

It feels like that, but then the timing is good.  Microsoft's 4k offering is coming on Friday.  Sony go out and deliver game after game.

You open with an excellent looking game like Ghost Of Tsushima? 

Makes you wonder what else we’ve got coming!

From the looks of things, same thing they had at E3! Destiny, Monster Hunter, COD, Battlefront, Spiderman, Detroit, God of War....

Edit: And Horizon DLC

Edit 2: And Shadow of the Colossus!

Detroit looks amazing though tbf

Yeah nothing shown for VR to make me want to buy one but at least the ball is still rolling

After finally getting REVII I actually think I might really enjoy that in VR....or poop myself at it. 

And come-on people no gifs for those of us on mobile and can’t spend data on streams or YouTube? Am disappoint. I guess I could check the actual threads....

Short but sweet conference.

With the pre-show it was a very good showing.

 

Nintendo and Sony will most likely dominate the next few years. Gonna be interesting to see what Microsoft will do...

Hopefully improve their OS to something useable without constant updates and huge downloads. Do you know how annoying it is to turn on for a quick bit of playing and have to update the fucking controller....again?? To be fair though, they are nailing the Backwards Compatibility angle this generation though. Honestly, OGbox discs working is pretty great (plus rereleasing the duke)

Taken as a whole it was pretty good I think, though the pre-show had bigger reveals with Guacamelee 2 and Spenlunky 2 tbh.

It's also a bit dishonest to go on about how "E3 was only half the show" and then have the vast majority of this one show the same games as E3! Destiny, Monster Hunter, COD, Battlefront, Spiderman, Detroit, God of War, Horizon DLC, Shadow etc...

That said, Concrete Genie looked phenomenal, and was my personal highlight. It looked fresh and beautiful! Wonder what the game will play like.

Couldn't judge Sucker Punch's new game from just cinematics.

Hmmm. You have to wonder what state Days Gone is in when Sony are choosing to push The Last of Us 2 over that. 

Really enjoyed the conference. Lots to look forward to.

That confused the heck out of me.

I heard the strings, and it sounded like TLOU. Cool. 

But then it not only looked like Days Gone, people were being hung and possibly left for their version of zombies, as we saw in the Days Gone stuff at E3 this year.

Very odd. Perhaps we’ll get an update following the showcase?

It's been in development for so long. Sony revealed it at E3 2015 but the concept was shown off at the PS4 launch so 4+ years of dev time. Surely they wouldn't throw all that work away.

Maybe at PSX....

Sony financials are now out and the PS4 is sitting on 67.5 million shipped. They've upped the estimation of what they expect to ship/sell by March to 79 million. If they achieve this then they will have reached PS3 lifetime sales in half the time. Crazy.

When they were on about the infrastructure of PSN, i was 1/2 expecting an announcement on integration of PS Now to PS+ subscribers to compensate the price rise.

One can still hope can they?

Guacamelee 2? Awesome! :D Looking forward to that, although I might just wait for a potential Switch version.

TBH, I've been gradually losing interest in the PS4 since getting a Switch. It was much more appealing to me before (during the Wii U era) but now I really struggle to go back to it. :hmm: Not planning to renew my PS+ subscription either, as the games on there have been pretty disappointing for a while too (that, or they're games I already own, which is in fact even more disappointing. :heh:) and I definitely don't play online enough any more to justify the additional cost.

If it wasn't for Yakuza 6 being on the way, I think I'd actually be tempted to sell my PS4.

I'm the same though I'm sure I was never as enthusiastic about the PS4 as you were!

I only picked up my PS4 for Christmas last year (A 1TB PS4 Slim with Uncharted 4, Drive Club and The Last of Us Remastered for £179.99 was basically impossible to refuse :grin: ) but while I've had a few good experiences on it, Nintendo always come along again and reaffirm their position as the best in the business and my heart will always be their's :smile:

Even so, I wouldn't sell it as we use it watch DVDs and streaming services in the living room (essential when you have a young child :heh: ) and I'm sure there will be a few more games I will desire on it. I just hope they don't disappoint me like some of the others, particularly The Evil Within which I still maintain is trash.. :blank:

I was so happy to see Spelunky 2 announced yesterday. The first game has given me so many hours of entertainment, its basically my daily game to play. I think my Steam counter for it is about to hit 1500 hours. Of course that doesnt even count the time I spent with the Vita version either!
