I don't really know what I expected from the show but I still feel a bit disappointed or jaded. Forspoken and EVE the highlights for me personally. Getting a bit sick of the steady release of Spider-Man games from Insomniac so I am glad they're having a crack at Wolverine.
 
Some people are kotor nerds, it has a huge fanbase and is cult like for some people. If he's a big fan of kotor then i can see his reaction.

However for newer generation people 18 years is so long ago its basically seen as kotor what?

So yea a bit of a generation clash i guess then. Unless he's talking about something else tho.
For sure, I mean I'm a big KOTOR fan and will get it day one for my PS5 but it's I'd hang my hat on as some big get. Especially since its a moneyhat. In 6-12 months, everybody has it.

Could have skipped watching this show tbh.

Kotor, Ghostwire and Eve, pretty cool. Also GoW is looking really nice, just like the previous one but even better.

Couldn't care less about any of other games tho. The slapped the Marvel humor in Forspoken, and half the lineup was Marvel games.

Crazy how shitty some of these games look during a stream. The 4K uploads are very fine though.

God of War, Forspoken and GT7 look amazing.
And honestly that was the first trailers I've seen of Deathloop that made me go...oh..that actually looks interesting.
Project EVE might be very interesting as well.

I'm not into comic book stuff...so all the Marvel games didnt do it for me.

Kinda weird that Kena wasnt there. Game could need a marketing push. Maybe it gets its own state of play

Wolverine came out of left field like a fucking wolverine

GT7 March release!!!!!!!!

They saved the whole event in pretty much the last 5 minutes. Impressive.
I thought GT7 looked last gen as fuck. The rain effects especially looked disgusting. Zero upgrades from last gen. Still a gen behind Driveclub. I am quite baffled by just how ordinary the game looks. It's like they put no effort into improving graphics. Horizon is open world and seems to have better looking environments. They spent four years on this? How?

Sony shut down the wrong studio.

Voted C. I will explain:
+ I remain highly interested in Forspoken, but the facial animation scared me, it was so bad.
+- God of War Ragnarok looked like last gen, but it really isn't that bad considering how gorgeous the 2018 title remains. Also, the stream could play a role here.
- Couldn't care less about SW KOTOR Remake (or any Star Wars stuff).
- Way, way too much Marvel games.
+ GhostWire: Tokyo is ace.
+ Project Eve is very interesing.
- Basically only a few new titles.
- Where are _the_ Sony games?

If this was supposed to be mindblowing then im dead inside, because its just expected stuff. Wolverine is nice but its just a cgi annocement. Nothing "mindblowing" about that. Spiderman 2? Cool as expected. God of War Ragnarok? Cool but it looks more like a big expansion at the moment.


and it did, Wolverine is hugeeeeee
Spider-Man 2

it’s just when we hear the word bombs we go fan boy and expect 15 megatons back 2 back 😂

but Sony is going to have a crazy 2022-2023

And so will Xbox, just a slow start like every other gen

graphically tho, this gen hasn’t blown me away yet

even god of war looks pretty much the same, even the gameplay and map design is PS4 based

I Gave it a C but only because of GOWR gameplay reveal, must admit my KOTOR and Wolverine got me hype cannot wait to see how the actual games look especially Wolverine. That's going to have to be one dark ass bloody ass game please no robot cannon fodder. I am very down on Forspoken the effects look amazing especially that water to ice effect but the game looks very lackluster.
 
Well this was shithouse. Seems my PS5 will be gathering quite a bit of dust once I'm done with GoT Directors Cut. Only hope Japanese third parties save 2022.

Well, I'll buy Eve. It looks awesome. Gt7 looks good too but we knew that. Gow looks like Gow... For spoken looked good before today... Today ruined it.

Thank god they finally showed dearthloop. I was starting to worry they never would.

Well, at least Elden Ring is not too far away. That was personally not a great show for me, maybe Layden was right about too much reliance on sequels etc. There was no showstopper really, Ragnarok just looks the same as God of War to me. Maybe once I have had time to reflect on it, but it did not blow me away by any means.

Flashless at the Golden Globes
No kojima
No bluepoint
No abandoned
No gow date
Wolverine.. meh... 2024+
No bloodborne remaster
Even uc4 remaster only early 2022
Paid Uncharted remaster instead of a simple next gen patch a la tlou2, horizon etc.
CG Wolverine
no GG new IP
no SSM new IP
no ND new IP
No factions
No TLOU remake
No MGS remake

Strap in for a rough 2022 and 2023. Literally the only next gen game we are getting from Sony first party from now till 2023 is Spiderman 2. Thats 1 game in 2 years. And lets face it, it will get delayed to 2024.
 
C

- No news about Bloodborne Remake
- No Bluepoint
- No back paddle attachment/ Pro controller
- Too much Marvel (holy shit Insomniac is making games on the fly)
- No unannounced big first party games
- Gearbox trailer was annoying as hell

+Alan Wake Remastered!
+ Venom
+ The Square game was cool
+ GoW of course
+ Ghostwire Tokyo looks okay

Edit. + Uncharted 60 fps !

Pretty meh show.
The last 10 minutes where the only hype part and even then everything from Insomniac was CG and years away.

God of War looks great and I'm sure it will be just as good as the first one. Though I can't help but feel a tad disappointed about it, didn't look as big of a jump as I hoped for a whole new gen.
