PlayStation to start its own brand of Nintendo Direct-like announcement streams called State of Play

Mythical · Mar 23, 2019

I feel as if they don't have the correct energy to make it something other than a succession of trailers. Sony's not known for reaching out to the public and they don't really have any mascots either. I literally just can't think of a single personality/person from Sony. Still more news the better I suppose

Finally, nintendo do a cool job with the directs, short and snappy, hopefully now microsoft has announced the same sort of thing, the E3 presentations will be interesting too

The overbearing throne of supremacy is why we can't have nice things.

Remember when they announced that they won't be attending E3 this year? That should've sparked something up for discussion, but no, we get this quite disturbing fight of who went first.

I wonder if they'll be entertaining to watch. The Directs tend to be charming so I'm wondering what Sony has up their sleeves in terms of presentation.

I'm primarily a PC player, but PS4 exclusively has Horizon: Zero Dawn, will have Granblue Fantasy Relink, and used to have Disgaea 5 and all good fighting games.
Only Xone/PS4 have KH3 and RDR2. Xone has no good exclusives to me, so PS4 wins by default.
For everything else, there is the Switch. And whatever runs too slow on the Switch, if multiplat, I get on PS4/PC.
Xbox One has no reason to even exist at this point, IMO. The only good exclusive they had in the pipes got canceled (Scalebound)

4k gaming is also a huge waste of resources since the transition from 1080p to 4k is barely noticeable on smaller ( ~32") screens.
If anything, instead of pushing higher resolutions, devs should be pushing that 60fps to 120/144.

Horizon: Zero Dawn is the last game I played on my PS4, and is one of the best games for it for sure. I'll have to look into Granblue. I plan to eventually play through the KH series, but I don't have that kind of time on my hands. I'll make time once the 4th one comes out lol. Yeah it's pretty decent for fighting games, but they almost always come out on PC as well.

You expected differently?

I don't blame him for expecting differently, but sadly people still show to this day that the nature of the human is a disturbing competitive race and attacking to those who dont share their personal tastes.

Is it that hard to let people enjoy stuff without bringing up this kind of discussion? Nintendo, sony, microsoft, even pc elitists, every single fansabe is disgusting and really depresses you to the point of lose the bit of enjoyement you used to have for the platform...

Which is why I said "used to have". At launch, we did not have GG Xrd, BBCF and Disgaea 5 on other platforms.

As for the topic itself, most E3s have been underwhelming for quite a few years. Directs are a fine idea IMO.

Not really, it's the expectation that people would change is what it is.

All fanbases are the epitome of verbal toxicity.

Imagine if it was Reggie. He gets on stage, gives us the smugiest look ever and says "My body is ready once again".

Only allowed if they have some retarded banjo solos for the first 15 minutes of every single one followed by 2 minutes of trailers.

Tbh that's probably what they'll have to do. Nintendo actually has a lot of cool exclusives because it's Nintendo, Sony showing some exclusives will take 15 seconds per stream.

I almost forgot about that abortive "presentation" last year *shudder*

Seems like E3 gets really in trouble slowly. It's sad since I always liked the big event character with having one event the years that's all about games with all the big names. Guess is's much more inexpensive then renting a space at E3 and when choosing a good date the single games can get more attention, but it's a real loose to not have a singular exciting moment (or better said few days) a year everyone in gaming gets hyped for something/various things. It was something that holded the gaming community toghter since it had something for everyone which of course dosn't has to be true for this smaller announcement trailer things Nintendo Directs are...

yep this is what we want to see

Like, I don't mind them doing this, I can only hope it wasn't like that piss poor presentation last year :rolleyes:
