This is very likely true...but, what if it does?  What if it not only justifies the lengthy dev time, but smashes it to tiny itsy bitsy pieces?  Would love to see that unfold live.

That's a big "What if?" However, if it does live up then we're the lucky ones. We'll get to play an awesome game, but I'll hope something like this never happens again

It kinda depends on what happens, I guess.  If my 'What if' comes through, I think it only reaffirms the need for developers to shut out the noise, and work on their projects aloof to what the peanut galleries are saying (which has been my stance since...forever).  Of course, if it does launch and sucks, or underwhelms (a virtual lock at this point, given the hype), it would suggest that Sony needs to hold off on announcing games before they know a finished product is coming.

I think everyone should know that by now (@bolded). I have been of the mindset that a game shouldn't go through multiple E3 conferences. It gives me the impression that something went wrong and usually games that go through multiple E3 conferences also get more disected and negative press (i.e. Driveclub, The Order 1886, Watch Dogs more recently). It's pretty much the main reason why I believe only Media Molecule will show their game since I get the idea they're the only Sony studio that can release their game within a year.
