AAA games these days take 5 to 6 years to release. No longer can you make a game and ship it in 2 to 3 years (Matt Booty said the same thing). Sony doesn’t want to repeat the mistakes that they made in past generations, when they announced games and you wouldn’t see them again for years. I should hope Xbox are finally showing the goods, after the many billions they have spent buying up other, already in development IPs since they weren't able to make much of anything outside of Forza themselves for over a decade.Īnother whiney, ignorant gamer that has no idea how game development works. Acting like there is nothing coming to Playstation outside of Spiderman 2 is just laughable tbh. Maybe they don't want to announce games that are 3/4+ years away like Hellblade 2 and Perfect Dark etc.Īlso FF16 is right around the corner and people are loving the demo, SH2 is coming, and FF7 Rebirth early next year, there are still plenty of games coming to PS5 that either aren't coming to xbox at all or for an as of now, unknown length of time, but for some reason only 1st party exclusives count now all of sudden.
You have no idea if Sony is holding anything back or not, hell some insiders came out after and said other stuff is ready and that there's a good chance there will be another showcase later this year. Most of what you said is all speculation based on one mediocre conference from Sony in years, I wasn't impressed with the showcase but you're really stretching it. Just these games will be a time commitment Very much looking forward to those, along with Metaphor and P3R. There's also VII Rebirth in the pipeline. For exclusives, Final Fantasy XVI looks outstanding and Spider-Man 2 isn't far off. I think the last time Sony got serious about dominating the competition, we got Bloodborne which to this day I maintain is the best game of its type.Īnyway, a mediocre showing isn't the end of the world. Sony has been busy behind the scenes, though let's hope GaaS isn't the big thing and we get back into the first party stuff we love. I gotta say, following the recent acquisitions of Haven and Bungie, I have to commend them for even having trailers out this fast. This showcase from PlayStation was really them showing what GaaS titles are in the pipeline and I suspect there will be a bigger unveiling for their more prominent first party studios soon. But I like to see them sweat a little bit. I've done that in the past and this thinking has not failed me yet. I don't like to fall back on "Sony will deliver as always". The community (journalists and gamers alike) showed them in no uncertain terms that they are NOT above criticism, and that is exactly where I like them to be. True that Sony is historically great at coming out swinging when they want to come out swinging, but I'm glad they got the public flogging they did over their showcase.
