Forums - Gaming - Sony's presentation looked mentally ill; no joy, no fun. (from a Sony fan)

I agree with the poster on this one.

Guys, all the vibrant and fun looking games were not to be taken seriously, and that is the fault of those of us who live in America, really. We made it that way. We are the biggest gaming market and we want guns and zombies, so that's what Sony is going to deliver. I was looking for a reason to get a ps4, really really was, and Sony didn't give it to me. I got a tiny bit excited when LBP3 came on the screen, but it was underwhelming. It looked like a game that could have just been easily made on ps3. I don't know exactly what I was expecting I guess, but usually going from one console generation to another, you're supposed to be able to make games that can't be done on the previous hardware. I didn't see anything that told me I needed to own a ps4. Maybe if uncharted 4 revealed gameplay, I would feel differently, but after seeing what i saw today, I'm even skeptical of that.

There's still stuff I'm looking forward to on PS4. This E3 just confirmed to me that PS4 won't be my only console this gen, and shouldn't have been my first. It's time for me to switch from a Sony-centric perspective on gaming. Might do me good, since I've obviously had enough.



Sony had diversity in their show and they are only one who does with their IP's/exclusives like this. May be you not a real fan of Sony. What kind of games does made you a Sony Fan actually?



GAMING is not about spending hours to pass/waste our time just for fun,

its a Feeling/Experience about a VIRTUAL WORLD we can never be in real, and realizing some of our dreams (also creating new ones).

So, Feel Emotions, Experience Adventure/Action, Challenge Game, Solve puzzles and Have fun.

PlayStation is about all-round "New experiences" using new IP's to provide great diversity for everyone.

Xbox is always about Online and Shooting.

Nintendo is always about Fun games and milking IP's.

Final Fantasy series, Chrono Cross, Crash, Spyro, Jak, Ratchet, Kingdom Hearts, ICO, SotC. But also mature games like Getaway, God of War and MGS.

LBP3 is about fun with simple art style items and not about grahpics upgrade like other realistic world games. LBP3 was not dony by Sony First party Studio as innovation over LBP2 and its just a upgraded LBP for PS4 with some new feature, tools, charecters. power ups etc., for those PS3 LBP community who like to be creative with LBP tools. (Did you hear 8.5 million levels created by community so far which can be played on LBP 3 in PS4?)

Well... If you want more colors and want another console instead of just one than might I suggest a wiiU? Just look at Mario Kart 8 for example! The game is full of colors! But if you are not interested, thats fine too! Eventually, the ps4 should have the games you are looking for if the ps3's library is anything to go by so its only a matter of time till they do loll

They have annoucned a Ratchet game in E3 which will be a reboot for PS4 based on the movie concept by Insomiac in 2015. FF and KH are coming in future which we already know and its upto Square enix. ICO style Last Guardian has been confirmed by sony its in full development officially and will be shown at TGS due to its Japan game(already they shown Bloodborne Japan game so they saved Last guardian for TGS). They already tried to make game like Crash/Jak wth Knack but did not find success. But, im sure we are gonna hear some games like Crash, RPG(GG) in gamescom etc., in future. They cant reveal every project right now and they have three event to show every year. Also Japan studio and MM is the one who is taking care of Platformers/Colorful games now, so wait for Gamescom and TGS.

If I didn't have a paid preorder with an additional 50EUR discount for the Gamer Pack, I would have. Should have sold it, but didn't, since I knew I'd want to use it even if not as a main console and it'd stupid to have to buy it again at a later date.



Sony seemed to have a zombie obsession during their conference, there was a string of about 4 zombie games, kinda saturating the market
