I'm not even sure why they showed up. The way they presented TLOUPII was disgusting, and in extreamly poor taste. Circle jerking around Naughty Dog, the Church references, it was incredibly smug. TLOU is my favorite game of all time, bar none. But, the way they are carrying themselves around this one makes me feel sick. Ghost of Tsushima was the only highlight of the show for me. This game looks great in all departments. Sucker Punch has been delivering some of my favorite expereinces for the last few years, and it looks like they will keep the train rolling with this one. As for Death Stranding, I think Kojima was trolling us with the walking simulator vibe (atleast I hope). It would be very typical of him to do something goofy like that. Still waiting to see more. The one issue with this was the lack of supporting material. If the conference had some thing that had blown me away, I would be all good Kojima's games, but when it needed to be a center piece, it just didn't work. Spider-Man put me to sleep. I have it pre-ordered and I am a huge Insomniac fan, but at this point I just want it in my hands. Then I have to mention Dreams. WTF? You're seriously going to tease us with Dreams between every video, then mention nothing about it. When is the beta coming? When is it releasing? For me Sony started looking like Sony 2005 today. They are so far up their own ass right now, I am scared to see where they go from here. Microsoft layed out a beautiful vision for Software, Services, and Hardware yesterday. Today, Sony gave us absolutely nothing to get excited about on all three fronts. Yes they have stuff in the here and now, but what are their plans for the future. Why is PS Now not growing? Any new services coming to PSN (Name Changes? Increased/Improved Cloud integration?)? What is the future of this Platform/Ecoystem? Sony is giving me a vibe that their shit don't stink, and they can just ride this gen out. Not a good image, and not a good strategy. They should have the pedal to the metal right now, esuring they don't get steam rolled next gen with streaming tech, smartphones, and PC. |
Absolutely agree with everything i highlighted.

LOL it sure is.
To me it was obvious that doing something like live music on a press conference should only be done on rare ocassions but since 2016 they have been doing it every time, and it just got worse and worse, dont get me wrong the 2016 one was awesome, the 2017 was kinda meh (it didnt really needed to be there) and this one as you said is likely gonna be a meme like the giant enemy crab.

They should have put a trailer for the game with that announcement on the press conference...
