Honestly I thought that was disappointing. 

A huge number of games, and good variety though. Around 70 minutes, 33 games.  And Spiderman got like a whopping 11 or 12 minutes of it. 

So many of the games are just known quantities like Street Fighter 6, and Final Fantasy XVI. 

Some of the first party stuff might be amazing, but the showings were very bad. We got like 50 seconds of teaser for Concord and like a 2 minute trailer for Fairgame$. Concord is supposed to be coming next year, why are we getting some 50 second trailer that shows us nothing other than it's some kind of sci-fi game?

I honestly think they should have cut some games and just called it a State of Play frankly... 

Spider-Man all but saved the show. If that was another short CGI trailer, I would've wondered what the point of this showcase was. But that was the one truly legit PS5 game they had to show, and it did some serious heavy lifting.

I don't think it was a bad show, to be honest. Not great but not bad either. A lot of already-known stuff and very few exclusives (I still cannot believe MGS Delta is not exclusive; that makes me really happy). 

Good (based on my taste, nothing objective here): 
- Metal Gear Solid Delta / Collection (that was my big hope for a reveal)
- Final Fantasy 16
- Assassin's Creed
- Alan Wake
- Dragon Dogma 2
- Marathon (not sure if it is a remake or a new game altogether, but this is super cool).

Bad:
- All those games for the first 20 minutes or so
- PSVR 2 :( Was hoping for more; was a let down for me
- I'm not into Spiderman at all so for me the final was just meh.
- The Splatoonlike game :)
