Regarding FF7 they said recently they had to start all over so I don't think we'll see it
it could be anywhere tbh. IF it's coming out to Xbox at the same time somehow, it could even be at MS conference although I feel this is highly unlikely...
SE conference is before Sony so they could show it there but who knows they could save it up for Sony conference, or show different thing (trailer for SE conference, gameplay bits for Sony's).
But honestly I am not expecting much of FF7R.. I feel SE already have lots of stuff to show so they might hold it off..
Huh? I didnt know about this.. start all over? You have a source? I know about the recent hiring but honestly this could be for future episodes..
last year they shifted from CC2 as main developer to internal development, and they had to remake a lot of stuff. I don't think they had to star all over in terms of everything, but a lot of stuff are different now like character design/models apparently..

Not sure about starting all over but there were big changes last year.
While it is true that CC2's work wasn't up to S-E's standards for this game (or so it seems) and they basically fucked up and had to shift gears and go in-house, the character designs change is not unusual for Nomura, and I really doubt it's due to the whole mess with these outsourced companies.
CC2 wasn't probably working at a good speed and/or they weren't giving the results S-E wanted (so they're to blame for not thinking this through), but I doubt Cloud changing to a more FF VII-esque kind of design has much to do with this.
But yeah, I really doubt we're getting information on this game until, if we're lucky, this year's PSX or so.
:(
It is, not sure which external team they will collaborate though.
This just isn't true.
Games are still developed for the base consoles. While this may change on MS' side, the Pro isn't extending the lifecycle of the PS4 - what it's done is likely retain some users who might have gone to another platform, got some to spend on a mid-gen upgrade, possibly even pushed some into upgrading their TV...what it hasn't done is provide a new power baseline for devs to work from.
Also - I can't believe people are still confused about there being a conference. I mean it's in the OP, and blaming Sony for Nibel misinterpreting the phrase 'breaking with tradition' when in the context of Layden's sentence it's really fucking obvious that it refers to naming the 4 keynote titles to be featured in advance.
Exactly. And that's why many immediately jumped to the conclusion that it's going to be a Nintendo style video. Ah, I just read the edited OP that there WILL be a press conference after all. Super odd about the invitations...
Did MS already sent theirs? Assuming of course Nintendo is still going with the Treehouse style.
TLoU 2 will likely have a very good MP mode (based on the 1st game). A lot of the people who haven't subscribed never will, as the either can't, don't want to or have no need to (account share with a family member or house mate who has PS+), them making a MP focused game won't do what the most popular MP focused games can't.
What are they realistically going to make that's bigger than Fortnite, Call of Duty, Battlefield, or FIFA?
Let's get real here. Maybe they strike gold and come up with a global phenomenon, but in reality they're much better off serving a segment of the market where not only their strengths lie — but also that's being underrepresented by other pubs.
There are MORE than enough massive multiplayer franchises on the PS4 to drive subs, and you're never going to sell a membership to every single console owner. One exclusive multiplayer game will not change that.
Surprisingly we don't have a FPS Battle Royale game on console yet, but good fucking luck surviving once CoD and Battlefield Battle Royale drop or getting out before either.
Not really. PS Plus is needed for COD, Battlefield, Overwatch, Destiny, GTA Online, RDR2 Online, Madden, FIFA, NBA2K, etc...
That would be really weird for a game first on PS4 to be at Microsoft's press conference.
They are basically making new game. Not just making an old game prettier. Don't think Bluepoint has skill set for that.
Yeah, that's why I think they either dropped the whole timed exclusivity thing or that Xbox version of the game in Walmart is not truly legit (even though it's eventually coming). Although that Walmart list doesn't even necessarily indicate that this is an E3 thing, so for all we know they're including games far away.
But it'd be a bit weird, considering how there's no way FF VII-R is releasing this year and how it'd be, as of now, a PS4 timed exclusive (so the date for an Xbox version would be even further away, seeing as they love playing quiet when they do timed exclusives, like with Tomb Raider or Crash).
MS, EA and Bethesda have all sent theirs already AFAIK. Unsure about Ubisoft, while Nintendo is doing their online thing as always. I'm assuming Sony will start sending theirs the coming week.
I'm cool with this, just really hope there will be some good surprises/reveals. That's what always makes E3 fun for me.
MediEvil is being done by the B-team at Santa Monica Studio, apparently.
I think it is an error. 90% of games are multiplatform and whoever uploaded the entries may have done it automatically. It's like a listing for Mass Effect Trilogy on PS4 a few years ago or the Last of Us on Xbox One.
U:TLL is just as big as any PS3 Uncharted if not more so (especially if you compare it to the first game) so it's 4 games vs 3 on PS4, obviously still a drop but not as big.
It's an XDev title so no internal Sony team should be developing it. XDev exists specifically to collaborate with European studios on titles.
XDev's job on this title is to extract the original game's resources from Studio Cambridge's archives, as I understand.
They might be doing that, but the actual developer should be a studio in Europe as that's what XDev is setup for. This is from their website

If you look at the games they've been involved with on their site you'll see that none of them have ever been developed internally or by a studio in the US.
That website also seems to be new and led me to their page on Wild, which seems to have artwork i've never seen before

Believe
I don't know why people want this. It's supposed to be a corny rip off of Mass Effect. The title is cool though,
I think folks are just keen on the idea of ND making a sci-fi epic in general. I for one would love to see them make a cyberpunk adventure in the vein of Blade Runner. Not just a game that encompasses shooty shooty bang bang stuff, but detective elements as well. Questioning NPCs, having an inventory, picking up items of interest, etc. That's the dream for me.
I want to see more of Ghost, don't care for Days Gone or Death and already know enough about Spider-Man (which looks like a total blast) but I'm hoping they surprise us this year because E3 as a whole was a total letdown. Problem is this is what happens when you blow your load early, you're bound to be unable to show off new stuff if you're constantly showcasing games years in advance. Sony still has the advantage of utilizing third party but then it's not really a Sony show is it?
I'd be down for sci-fi from Naughty Dog for sure, but I'd want it to be more atypical than the Mass Effect or Blade Runner looks that dominate most sci-fi games aesthetics. Gimme a grimey, near-future noir game or something like Cowboy Bebop.
Oh wow, thanks. This looks amazing!They might be doing that, but the actual developer should be a studio in Europe as that's what XDev is setup for. This is from their website

I hope we get a trailer at least...I refuse to believe that those 4 games are everything we will see (exclusive-wise).
Edit: The fab four on its own is amazing though. I'm not dismissing their quality. On the contrary - I'm unbelievably hyped for every single one of those games and watching gameplay the first time is amazing.
