You're just blowing smoke out with statements like that. You're downplaying the significance of Final Fantasy VII Remake and The Last Guardian along with what they mean to the fans. Shenmue 3 was funded in 8 hours with 2 mil. I see no point in demeaning the fan bases of those series with "They had nothing important to show".  

Blowing smoke??  You should read the whole of my comment, not cherry pick an individual sentence or two and take it out of context.  I stated that"All three are good to great things, but in of themselves, they were not all big actual surprises. ".  So, I am not saying that the games have no meaning.  I am stating that Sony is getting crerdit for announcing (a second time)a game that has been in development for 6-7 years.  They also announced a kickstarter campaign for a game that if they were such good guys, they would have put up the 2-3 million to make.  They also announced a MULTIPLAT, like it was something that they did. These were all fan service announcments, and your response is direct proof.  I think that all 3 games are cool things in their own way, but only one of them has anything to do with Sony, and even then it might only relate to them funding a finish to a game that they probably spent the majority of the development costs on years ago.  The "meat" of my point was the last paragraph of my original comment.  I am just surprised at this point, that MS hasn't figured out how to bring 1-2 of these fan service announcements to each of these pressers. I know that the backwords compatibility was their hope to check that box, but most fanboys want a game that tugs the heart strings...


Shenmue 3. Kickstarter was used to gauge public interest. It's being developed for the PS4 and PC. Sony is partnered with 'em for the game. Dec, 2017 launch window

Final Fantasy VII remake. Timed exclusive. No details about if it's going to just pc or other consoles. Most likely, sony is help funding/marketing the game.

The Last Guardian. Exclusive for PS4. 2016 launch window

It's not like sony isn't involved in these beyond just announcing them. It's getting credit where it's due.
