Sony doesn't need to announce games with CGs that will be released several years in the future and still didn't start production. In the recent years they've been announcing 1st party games to be released in under a couple of years, in many cases under a year. Unlike they focused on announcing/showing stuff to be released relatively soon because they had enough 1st party stuff to do so. And with the logo exception of GoWR, they announce their games showing gameplay or in-game cutscenes running in the console.
After a long period with no big 1st party releases, MS finally has been able to make a conference focused on games that in therory (many of them can be delayed or not be really planned for 2022 as mentioned because they only shown a CG/logo) will be released in a year and a half. Which is what Sony has been doing these recent years.

I honestly don't get the animosity, warzone is hella fun - I get that a new COD may be pretty boring/lame but it's more about the content that new game brings to Warzone that keeps it new and fresh.

(Sony has also been announcing partnerships early. This gives a glimpse of its library without drumming up unnecessary over-hype, a good thing to avoid since sometimes that'll burn a project out. So the Jade Raymond project, the Deviation Games project, the Firewalk Studios project, we know about these, but we don't know so much about them that we're holding it against them every major event their games aren't shown.)
I appreciate Microsoft's announcing approach as I personally like getting a long view of the slate, but they lit a fuse on Fable and Perfect Dark by deciding to show CG teasers way before any gameplay is ready, and it's really hard on fans knowing that the excitement they felt in 2020 seeing those names is now the same dim spark in 2021 and may continue not firing up into 2022...
It'll be interesting to see what kind of show the next PlayStation showcase is, because it's been almost a year since the two big PS5 video events in June and September, and now all but three of those games are out: Horizon Forbidden West, Gran Turismo 7, and God of War Ragnarok. Even if Sony totally ran dry after launching everything in the first two quarters (things slipped, but it sounds like the plan was to have Horizon and GT7 for Christmas plus maybe Death Stranding DC, and we have some rumored standalone titles that may exist but we don't know anything for sure yet except those 3 announced games,) now it's about time to start putting some new names up on the board...

The big difference is that in these cases Sony has been honest saying: hey we signed a deal with these guys but are barely starting to work, so don't expect their games to be released or even shown soon. Instead take a look at the trailers of these dozen or so great AAA or (timed console) exclusive indies to be released in the next year or so.
Microsoft instead release misleading CG teasers that make some people think the game will be released or two after the trailer, when the game is not even in production. Example: Hellblade II announced in 2019 with a very cool cg, and then in mid 2021 they say the game isn't even still on production. But the same can be said of games like Everwild, Forza Motorsport or many other ones that we don't even know which year are they going to be released.
I think Sony's showcase will be basically like the ones they did these recent years: trailers of both known and new hyping games to be released in the next year an a half or so (so from now until the end of 2022), with maybe one or two 2023 games. And with no CG, all of them showing gameplay or in-game cutscenes running in the console devkit in real time.
This means Sony can make the Death Stranding DC, GoWR and FFXVI full reveal, announce the next CoD, Ghost of Ikishima, the TLOU2 Factions game, the other game Guerrilla has been developing since 2018, the Firewalk game (under development since 2018), Insomniac's 2022 game (Spider-Man 2?) or Sony London's AAA game plus some cool indies and some exclusive or multi surprise (Dragon's Dogma, Dragon Quest XII...). They can also announce some acquisition (not Arc System Works, fighting game important new typically wait until EVO) or some cool PS Plus or PS Now improvements, or to show PSVR2 and mention they will release it next year in addition to show release dates of H2 2021/H1 2022 games that still don't have an exact release dates.
A 2021-2022 line-up that basically will mean that they will continue dominating MS by a huge margin during these two years.

Maybe they'll announce that they are acquiring both Nintendo AND Brazzers.

This is bullshit, the initial reveals for COD games are done by Activision themselves, so no way would they be holding up the Sony event.

It's amazing that with all the bullshit Kojima, Konami and Sony have been pulling these days, some people still think that these theories came from thin air or tinfoil hats.

Yes. But will probably get a story trailer and the generic planes flying overhead and explosions trailer.

First it was "the event got delayed until August" now its "expect news this week, event's back on for July" ...
I wish these people would just stop lying and pretending to have "sources". What Sony employee would risk their job to feed information to clowns on Twitter and Reddit? ......

I am an insider, and I can confidently tell you that Sony's next event will be on a day that ends in a Y, and will happen between 3pm and 5pm in a time zone of your choice. It will feature video games, be mostly coloured blue, and will stream badly on YouTube.
Bow to me, mortals.

Looks like a normal thing to do.Anything shown E3 was not a threat for them so they can push it for later and show more content so why not?

Definitely feels like an announcement is coming up soon with the Housemarque acquisition, possible Blue Point acquisition, and the Ghost leak. I hope it is sooner than later.

“Rumored” July event may have pushed to August? We are talking about an imaginary event pushed from an imaginary date to another imaginary date… How the fuck does that make any sense. Oh wait! Another rumor coming in hot!! The August even is pushed to September.

Not at PSX, if their game would get some spotlight, it would be at State of Play. But their trailer has been delayed, lol.

My uncle that works at Sony said that Sony bought Nintendo,Capcom and Beyond meat

BOOOOM!!!! That makes perfect sense (if real).
Sony's plan would be to hit us with updates once per month June (Horizon 2 update and gameplay trailer), July (DeathLoop and some smaller 3rd party games), August (GOW2, HFW release date).
Now for me, Sony will need to give us more in August to make all of this make sense. Like what about a GT7 update, PSVR2 update, and what are you working on for 2022 update!!!

If you predict an event every month you'll be right sooner or later. And saying GOW will be at the next Sony even is like saying the sun will rise tomorrow morning.

I love how today I saw so many people talk about how they hate this shit, and then we just get more of it, lmao. A never ending buffet of BS rumors.
The best part is when there finally IS one that happens, there's gonna be people that pop up saying, "I told you so!" when they had no clue themselves, lol.
