Faceless cloaked figure...apparently he's out of a job...

Magicka 2...I have no idea but whatever...the dude killed his cat...clearly this game doesn't take itself too seriously, which I can respect.

Sally T., age 10, wants to play an old Tim Schafer game...Grim Fandango being remastered...and that's one of the loudest reactions I've heard this year.

Now it's time for the token Indie montage...look at all these exclusive games you'll get, only on PlayStation!

One of the games is called "BroForce"...FUCK YOU!

Now something from Suda 51...whoever/whatever that is...people in the crowd dig it.

This look insanely violent. "Let it Die"...coming in 2015. I'll pass.

"Video games, right...hehehe"...this fucking guy.

New game from Giant Squid...

You shut your mouth about the world leader in grand historical strategy gaming on the PC. Now why they want anything to do with PS4 I have no idea.

This is basically Journey for the sea...so I'm sure people will love it...

Abzu

Adam leaving us with one last game...

Walking around a strange planet...goats walking with dinosaurs...now he gets in a ship and flies away...now it's a star fox like shooter...time to land on another planet...

No Man's Sky...looks outstanding!

This guy is nervous as hell...promising us an "infinite universe"...they don't know everything that's out there...so...who does?

Looks like an exploration game just for the sake of exploration...I dig it.

Andrew House is back...now talking about hardware...talking about the camera, pointing out that it was the user's choice to buy it (nice dig)...now talking about Project Morpheus...VR guys!

Andrew is introducing Shawn Layden...President and CEO of SCEA. Looks like he's rocking a $5000 suit.

Talking about sharing content...Youtube coming to PS4 later this year...can directly upload to Youtube from the PS4...very nice.

This presentation has really hit a lull...need something to happen...

Now talking about Free to Play games...

*Certain features available for a fee



Epic montage is epic.

Playstation Now...available in US/Canada July 31st as an open beta...play a catalog of games streamed...also coming to 'select' Sony televisions. Access to 100 PS3 games. Dead Space 3, God of War Ascension, Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes to name a few...

Talking about Vita...and it's integration with the PS4...really pimping out the remote play feature...over 100 titles for Vita in development today.

Playstation TV...coming to the West! Pairs with the PS4, let's you connect it to a second TV to play it remotely...that's great! Basically a really fucking awesome Roku. 99 dollars!

Oh shit...Mortal Kombat X gameplay footage!

As one of the 100 Americans with a Vita that doesn't use it to play Japanese imports, this pleases me.

One match featuring Scorpion and Sub Zero...another match featuring, well, I dunno who these are (help me IMU...are these new characters?)

Looks stunning...slow motion shots of the bones breaking and stuff...fucking sick!

Oh my God these fatalities! Fucking awesome.

Andrew House is back again...now talking about PS4 owners watching movies and tv on their consoles...watch out guys, this shit will get you in trouble with...THE CORE!!!

Talking about new content coming to PS4...first original series called Powers...umm...umm...umm...

Good lord do we really have a guy talking about his TV show that's gonna be on the PS4 right now...you were doing so well Sony!

Name dropping who is working on this show...don't give a fuck.

Hey, let's look at some concept art!

Well thankfully that is over. Now talking about Playstation Plus...a real winner for Sony.

All Plus subscribers get all original content for free...well have fun with that.

Ratchet and Clank...the movie?!?! Coming in 2015. Also working on "re imagining" the original Ratchet and Clank game for PS4.

The Last of Us...coming to PS4...because this game didn't look great enough already. Hey, another Nirvana cover used in a PS4 game video. That's a trend that can go away any time...

July 29th...nice!

Kojima time...new trailer for Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain

Kojima takes himself so fucking seriously...literally puts a director's credit at the front of a trailer for his game.

Looks great...oh that lens flare...

Snake looks quite troubled...poor guy...I'd be confused if my voice suddenly changed too...

Now...oh shit...GTAV?!?! Next gen versions!!! Well, looks like I'm buying that again...coming fall 2014.

GTA Online progress can be transfered from PS3/360 to PS4...didn't think I'd hear an Xbox name drop in this presser.

Now Rocksteady/Warner...more Batman...

Correct - brand new characters. Even knowing the "lore" as I do...not sure who these would be...or how they are related to previous characters.

Probably just new denizens of the Underworld.

Gotham looks amazing...Batmobile is a beast!

Arkham Knight...exclusive missions on PS4...

...now one last title to close the show...and...it's...

Uncharted!

Captured from PS4 engine...holy fuck this is surreal...Drake looks like he's had a rough go of it..."One Last Time"...so this is really the end of this series?

Uncharted 4: A Thief's End. 2015.

Well damn. Nice closer.

Summing up Sony...

Grade: B plus

Games, games, and...Powers...seriously, what the hell was that about? They were on course for an A grade until they had to kill the momentum of the conference with those five minutes that I'll never be able to get back. Closing it with GTAV/Arkham Knight/Uncharted 4 did well to bring it back on track, and the detour of the Playstation TV announcement was a welcome one...but really...Powers?

Still better than Microsoft's...but the margin wasn't as obvious as last years.

I guess I'll watch Nintendo later...I hear there is some good stuff in there.

Final Fantasy Type-0 HD is coming to PS4 and XBox One.

That is good, at least.

I figured as much when the fan translation for the PSP that was due in a few months suddenly released yesterday. The opening of that game has more deaths than Days of Future Past. Although screw you Squeenix for not having a Vita version.

Sounds like there will be a lot of new characters in MK X, as it is set 25 years after MK 9 and looks to be continuing the canon of MK 9, which included many character deaths.

The article posted above includes some details on that, as well as gameplay changes / additions.

Ya know, as an old guy who last ruled the universe playing PS1 , I have been way out of the loop. I did get a PS3, but it sat doing nothing and I flipped it.

The awesomeness and entertainment value of this thread is getting my gaming juices flowing again, if you will.

Thanks, lipid!
