I might drink a shit load of coffee and play Skyrim or CoD all night. I'll just set my alarm, just like I done with the Game Awards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whenever I wake up that early I'm too delirious to pay attention to anything for at least half an hour By the way, what do you think we'll see? Anything major? Some crazy big announcement or just more trailers for stuff we've already seen? I haven't followed the news about the event so I have no idea what to expect.

Probably a better look at Dreams and maybe longer trailer from the new From Software game. Other than that I can't think of anything else. Maybe a few cheeky shadow drops? I'm not really expecting any big reveals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killthenet Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 I think I'll just try and avoid any news and watch the EZA stream when I wake up. I'm not expecting any major reveals but do expect a more in-depth look at the new From Software game, there'll probably be a new trailer for Days Gone aswell seeing as that skipped Paris and Tokyo.

Hero-of-Time Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 I know Sony said the event would be low key but even I didnt anticipate just how low key this ended up being. It felt like it was show that they were forced to put on rather than one they wanted to put on. There were a few awkward moments and showing the same 8 minute Death Stranding trailer people had seen the previous day was just bad form. I feel sorry for those who forked out money to go and see the show but at least they get to play the games on offer. I gotta say, is Sony not happy with Days Gone or something? There are no panels for it and there was no new trailer, despite it being on the show floor. When it didn't show up at PGW I figured it would at least make an apperance here.

Happenstance Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 I haven’t watched it yet myself but I haven’t seen too much disappointment on my twitter feed. Only complaint I’ve seen is that the Detroit stuff seemed to glorify gun violence and it was weird having people cheer it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheikah Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 I watched it live and I found it really entertaining. Detroit Become Human was particularly awesome I thought, really made me want to buy the game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drahkon Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Just watched it. It was very entertaining and insightful. Would love to see something like this every year. The Death Stranding talk with Kojima, House and Cerny was pretty cool "So how did Death Stranding come together?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, video games, robots etc, but still... The fact they used the same demo as three years ago doesn't fill me with confidence about how much is in the game tbh, that said still very excited for it.

They can't show too much gameplay due to the genre. If they kept showing different scenarios then people would complain that certain story aspects would be spoilt. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolan Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 I now have in my possession a PSVR. (With a nicely fitting headset more comfy than expected.) now if only I had the ambition to set it up tonight. Honestly they put some thought into the try it at home program. Instructions on how to pack it back up and a return shipping label is provided right away. Also I was mistaken when I read the original email, it straight up comes with Skyrim VR (I originally thought it was a demo). For $300 I don’t think there exists a better bundle. Maybe they’re making up to PS+ subscribers for the previous months of poor games. This is my first time holding move controllers though and, they seem fine other than the trigger is very squishy ala DS3 instead of DS4. I’ll actually set the damn thing up Wednesday.

That indie list reminded me of a game that @Ashley alerted @The Bard to on Facebook. It's been kicking around on Kickstarter since February but they recently released a new trailer, so I'm delighted to see it's still on track. Coming to PS4 as well. Fucking mint.

Grabbing, throwing and firing weapons whilst ducking bullets is the closest to being in The Matrix I've ever been. Really hope they make a fleshed out sequel.

I played Superhot years back on PC (I think it was still a free proof of concept then) and it will definitely be my first PSVR purchase. It’s hugely original in its premise and quite fun. I finally set all that up and played a few demos and a bit of REVII. Holy fuck that game is intense normally but in VR mode, wow. Ads on the dash, hmm haven’t seen that yet myself.

Nolan Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 And being able to switch it off makes it worlds better than the Xbox equivalent. I believe people were blocking specific IP addresses at the router in order to shit off those ads. But no, ads for a paid service are fucking abhorrent. What the fuck am I paying you for if you’re still going to try and make ad revenue, and raise the price of subscriptions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
