Sounds like this will be some games, but not the full blown reveal we all want. Sounds like they still want to see Microsoft commit to a date and price before they do.
Feel free to go into details, I'm just saying it's cool we got a date (and that Jason doesn't have a "scoop").
While the June 3 reveal should provide the best look yet at the PS5, don't expect Sony to give every detail about its next-gen system. The company could withhold price and release timing for another date. The price for the PS5 is still especially subject to fluctuations. Sony wants to launch at a competitive price tag, but it also doesn't want to take a loss on hardware.
So then what will Sony show off next week? Expect it to focus on what is possible in next-gen games with the PlayStation 5. The company seems aware of the backlash that Microsoft faced for its first Xbox 20/20 event. Fans were unhappy with the lack of gameplay at that presentation. In response, Sony wants to rely on PS5 games that are actually running on real hardware.
that's in five hours lol
Iirc when Spawnwave asked Nate when we'd get an announcement, I think he said 3-5 days before so I'm guessing Friday
By box I mean the hardware design.
I wouldn't expect that at this event.
Yes, by around now we'd normally see the hardware design, but we're a bit behind where we normally are. With PS4 we saw game software and controller first, and hardware and price/release-date together later.
With PS5 we've had the controller, but (basically) no software. So I expect software here - and that's what the rumour suggests. And then a little later, hardware+price+release rollout info. I think those things go together well in one event/announcement.
I'm not as excited as I was several weeks ago. Not sure if it's me, or Sony's marketing strategy this time around just isn't clicking with me. Anyone else feel the same?
Not E3: Sony is planning a PlayStation 5 event for June 3

So we can expect PS5 design reveal ?
Ape Escape for sure (I wish). Probably a teaser for HZD2 and a new IP.I know right, who ask's their wife before they buy anything?!?!
Seriously, how many First Party games do you think we will see?
Not at all. Any burst of information sent our way is awesome, no matter how big or small. When it comes directly from Sony / Microsoft / Nintendo, it's always worth getting excited.I'm not as excited as I was several weeks ago.

You can always just wait until the reveal. I mean we know so little, it makes sense to not be excitedI'm not as excited as I was several weeks ago. Not sure if it's me, or Sony's marketing strategy this time around just isn't clicking with me. Anyone else feel the same?
An ERA prediction that is reasonable? Heresyhoping for:
- Console design
- Game trailers showing PS5 only titles: Horizon, Ratchet, GT Demo/Concept
- 1-2 Third Party reveals: maybe Harry Potter, Batman, RE8, Silent Hill, Starfield, etc
- Launch window still holiday
- Price, why wait? If it's $399, it sets the tone that will be hard to counter. If it's $499, yeah maybe wait for Xbox to say price
- More details on BC: plz give us more than PS4 BC, even if it's just PS1 and Ps2
- A demo of installs/OS speed showing advantages of SSD

Yeah I know but from what he said (Jeff), maybe there is only the price Sony don't want to give (and the release date)Doesn't say that? Like Bloomberg's reporting, it sounds like it'll be focused on games.
Lmao, is this guy just trying to boost his twitter?!
Wjoa, whoa, whoa?Ape Escape for sure (I wish). Probably a teaser for HZD2 and a new IP.
Yeah, suppose your right. Really haven't gotten any solid, meaty info yet besides the controller. I did get excited when that dropped.You can always just wait until the reveal. I mean we know so little, it makes sense to not be excited
