FF14 -- chec out ff forums, people are going crazy |
Announcing the name of a game and nothing else isn't a Megaton, it's just almost annoying as announcing an anouncement.
And are you really surprised that Final Fantasy fans on a Final Fantasy forum are happy about a new Final Fantasy? Don't get me wrong, if it's anything like FFXI I'll gladly get it day one but that wasn't really anything near a "megaton" announcement. Surprise, very much so, megaton, not so much.
And just as a note-- I consider megaton announcements as the things that make people walk away from the show and say damn dawg, Sony totally took that show because of [insert announcement].
And I agree, I don't think Sony really had one. People already knew about the PSP Go so that took away the excitement and the price took away even more excitement. People already knew about Trico so that took away the excitement. Metal Gear for the PSP was nice, but nothing huge and definately not as huge as it would have been for the PS3.
Two good examples of megatons are the Metroid: Other M announcement and the Microsoft FFXIII announcement from last year. The Metroid one this year was a megaton but it was a small one, and the FFXIII announcement last year was obviously a huge one as it made the internet throw up all over itself.
