Quote from: Sid Shuman, Director of SIEA Social Media
The year is winding to a close, but PlayStation is just getting started. This Monday, October 30, PlayStation’s Paris Games Week Media Showcase will begin at 9:00am Pacific Time.

But plan to tune in early at 8:00am! We’ll begin with an introductory livestream featuring 21 game updates, including seven all-new game announcements for PS4 and PS VR. You won’t want to miss it.

Then at 9:00am, our Media Showcase will give you an exclusive new look at the next wave of huge PlayStation titles.

After the Showcase, stick around — we’ll dive deeper into the biggest announcements coming out of Paris Games Week.

It’s going to be a wild day. Hope you can join us! We’ll be streaming live on live.playstation.com, Twitch, YouTube, and Facebook

PSX is in December. I don't know what could be revealed at PGW over PSX, other than the reintroduction of WiLD. Though France is a pretty big market for Japanese games, so maybe they'll have something for that audience announced here instead of December.

Either way, I thought WiLD looked amazing the last time they've shown it, so I hope it has finally become something more concrete.

Spider-man.

Which looked bad to me last showing. Looked like an Arkham clone with QTE's.

I meant Sucker Punch, totally meant Sucker Punch. Too busy fixing OP dang it. Should be good now though. Can everyone at least see the announcement from Sid Shuman?

Pls no more bully Demi-sama. :uguu

  :goty

I'm not sure Legaia was developed by SCEJ? Published for sure.

Either way, all we have had on SIEJ activity in the last couple years is rumors of a JRPG, always rumors. Would like for something to materialize eventually here before PS5.

omg i didnt touch anything man. it looks fine now

Maybe it was a bug? I'm not mad or anything lol. I'm just thankful I had the topic open in another tab so I could copy/paste parts of my old OP.

Don't think we'll see Sucker Punch's game till December. If not, then E3.

Some of the seven new games being VR titles kind of lessens my interest tbh.

Yeah, I don't have a PS VR so I feel you on this. I do want to get a PS VR though. I feel like there is just enough content to justify one now. Especially as a trophy slut. :p Plus they did make that new PS VR starter bundle.

Apparently SIEJ helped Team Siren on the Siren games. I'm hoping some day we'll see another one of those.

Interesting thought here. I guess the next SIEJ game could be another collaboration like Bloodborne.

Prokion and Contrail developed Legaia. Contrail was an internal Sony studio that helped with game production before being absorbed into SCEJ in 2000. They worked on Wild Arms 2, Alundra 2 and the first Boku no Natsuyasumi game. Prokion made both Legaia games and a TO LOVE RU PSP title for Marvelous in 2008.

Yeah WiLD looked great. Hope the skeleton of BG&E2 isn't taking them away from that too much.

I wish I could play both of them in my lifetime. But it's probably going to be neither.  :goty2 (Ancel please)

I assume solid dates for God of War and Detroit will be coming at PSX.

Kind of bummed we aren't getting more info on Frozen Wilds since it's out in just a few weeks but we did see some new outfits, I guess.

SotC remake is an insta-buy, they need to drop a date already.

Dad of War with Positive Reinvorcement Baby sure looks like a new God of War game.

'Wow, what a cool shot.'
'You're so cool, dad!'

With some added patronizing lines for the baby. 'Watch behind you'  'Look up!'   'Do this, do that'

Shut the hell up and let me play the game.

Guacamelee 2 and Ghosts of Tsushima! :rejoice

This was much better than their boring ass E3 conference.

I only tuned it for the "main" event, which was a rehash of E3. And E3 itself was already a rehash. Better have some new announcements for post spring 2018 at PSX, otherwise  :holeup

Still hopeful kinda. Last year was shit for Sony announcements until PSX 2016 basically was one of the best game conferences in recent memory.

Cut scenes and CG trailers amazing.

TLOU2 looked great as expected. Surprised no one was moaning about that girl getting her arm hammered.

Are Sony serious with GOW. Hearing that little brat shout instructions was annoying after 20 secs a whole game of that?

 :lol

Spiderman looks suspiciously like a lot of indoor fights. I mean if I play a Spiderman game i want to swing round the city in style.

Arkham City and Arkham Knight from Rocksteady nailed Batman and how he moves and interacts round his world. If it's not on that level IG should forget about it.

Ah yes, the good ol marketing buzzword spiel. All talk and no show.

Apart from the setting, the game they describe might as well be Zelda Breath of the Wild. (Which is fine with me cause I like that game.) But I still don't really get what it's supposed to be, since they didn't show anything.

After nearly a year since our announcement that we’re working on The Last of Us Part II, we’re finally ready to reveal a bit more of the game. Above is an all-new in-game cutscene on the latest iteration of the Naughty Dog engine, running on a PlayStation 4 Pro. Enjoy!

At its core, The Last of Us is still very much about Ellie and Joel, but for this reveal, we wanted to showcase several new characters that are integral to their next journey. We’re sure you have many questions after watching this scene. We’re also pretty sure that we’re going to see all sorts of theories about whom these characters are, where and when this scene takes place, and how all of this fits into Ellie and Joel’s next story. For now we’re keeping mum, but we’re excited to see what y’all make of this piece of the puzzle.

With all of Naughty Dog working on The Last of Us Part II, we’re making great headway into the project. From art, technology, gameplay, and story, this is by far our most ambitious game yet. You’re in for an intense, beautiful, harrowing, and emotionally moving ride. We’re extremely proud of the game we’re crafting and can’t wait to show you even more – and we promise you won’t have to wait as long for the next big reveal!

Until next time, endure and survive!

Watched the show finally. Hyped but not hyped I guess. The Samurai game looks awesome, especially to hear the devs talk about it after the show. TLOU2 could go either way (I'm not really a big fan of Naughty Doge). I for sure want a PS VR. Blood and Truth looked like a straight up action movie, in VR game form.

I suspect PSX will have one or two surprises left. Really I'm just glad Sony is doing well enough financially to support all these games. So many, I'll never be able to play them all. :(

I really hated all of these trailers. There’s barely a lick of gameplay in any of them.

Even the Spider Man game, which is actually supposed to come out soonish, isn’t it? I don’t mind story heavy games, but I just can’t get hyped over a game cutscene unless you put some shit in there that shows how it plays.

A buddy and I were shitting on the TLOU 2 trailer while it was playing, then we saw the title appear and were like "oh".  :doge

I actually liked TLOU a lot, but that trailer was boring as heck.

SotC is a game I wanted to love, but the controls/camera were always too awful. So above graphics this is hopefully what they address in the remake and I think they already hinted in such directions. I would hope that just like Crash that it isn't full price.

it's $40, which is at least $10 too high

i fully admit sotc is like a c+ or b- game, but I'm a sucker for big nice-looking open worlds so i like loading up the game every once in a while just to wander around.

Post by: brob on October 31, 2017, 11:37:41 AM
i like sotc. it tries to do a very narrow thing and does it well. doesnt overstay its welcome. The biggest issue I have with the game is that the two versions that exist are both flawed in ways the other isnt. ps2 has awful framerate and various other technical issues. ps3 fixes that stuff and it's great, but they changed some of the behaviors for the enemies so playing on hard is wildly tedious and the time trial challenges are just outright bad.

kinda corny to take three attempts to get it right, but if the ps4 version fixes the issues I have with the ps3 one, I'm down.

Apparently, this trailer is about a sub plot in the game, not the main story arc. Hoping for another classic Mysterio encounter.

Also, one of the earlier trailers had Rhino in it IIRC.

Well as someone kind of missing really cinematic games this gen I'm pretty happy with what was shown. There's been a lack of games with really good cinemas and well Spider-Man, The Last of Us, and that Samurai game looked great.

And I'm serious, I really like it when games have well animated and choreographed cutsecenes. More so as animation nerd. I mean Metal Gear and FF both kind of lacked that this gen. It's really kind of just been the Uncharted stuff. I mean it's fine that games are moving away from that, but I still like it.

I don't know if I'm gonna like Spider-Man.

They've said that Mary Jane Watson is a reporter, which means the story draws from Ultimate Spider-Man (set in Earth-1610. The normal Peter we know of is from Earth-616). This means this game is leading to a "Death of Spider-Man" arc which will end with Peter dead and Miles replacing him.

At the very least, this 2018 game will be good and then I won't be buying any sequels. I just wanted a Spider-Man game focusing on the difficulties of everyman Peter Parker, whilst having to struggle with his role as Spider-Man at the same time. Is that so hard ffs?

No, we need sidekick Mary Jane, Copycat Morales hot on his tails and the laziest sphere of influence anyone's ever seen. Based on the info we've seen so far in the trailers, Aunt May works for the villain (what a coincidence), Mary Jane works at the Daily Bugle and is reporting on the guy Aunt May works for (what a coincidence), Peter Parker himself has met and assisted the guy Aunt May works for (what a coincidence), Miles Morales introduces himself to Peter at the Villian's homeless shelter (what a coincidence), Wilson Fisk is also taken down by the Villain Aunt May works for (what a coincidence) and Norman Osborn's Mayor bid gets disrupted by the same Villain that has connected Peter and his friends/family together. What a coincidence!

I'm assuming the cutscenes in the new Wolfenstein are just as good as the first game. You might appreciate those.

I think that Spider-Man trailer looked dope. Since I've only ever watched the Raimi movies and the animated show from the 90s, I don't really get Aeptia's concerns. I just like that Spider-Man is older and more experienced here and not a bumbling teenager, learning the ropes. I really didn't want another boring origin story again, so I like this in medias res approach.

I also like Mary Jane as an active sidekick instead of merely a plot device, waiting to be rescued. The visuals didn't blow me away, but I don't really care, as long as the rest is okay, though I can't really say much about the gameplay at this point and I'm wary about the open world.

So yeah, I'm excited to finally play a good Spider-Man game.

Except the trailer shows a scenario where you need to save Mary Jane. Anyway, I saw Ultimate Spider-Man, and that had reporter Jane in it too. She completely sucked as a character.

What I don't like about this version of Jane is that it makes her dependant on Peter once she finds out he's Spider-Man. The original MJ had interests that rarely overlapped with Peter's interests/vigilantism. Also, there's a wider perspective that the writers can offer if she is a model/actress because that's not something that has been looked into within the Spider-verse. There's also more to offer from a perspective where the relationship doesn't depend on one person being a superhero, which isn't the route they've taken here. My disappointment is warranted.

I agree on graphics not blowing me away. I don't understand the applaud in that regard. I also don't care as much as others do.

Since I've only ever watched the Raimi movies and the animated show from the 90s, I don't really get Aeptia's concerns.

That's your mistake. Raimi Spider-Man sukks big time compared to the superior comics and nothing I've seen has come close to Stan Lee's original run.

Fair enough, I missed that. The fact remains though that she's still actively helping Parker in his investigations. They even make her a playable character. That's a plus for me who only knows Mary Jane as a passive character with tenuous links to the main plot.

Sure, I wouldn't mind seeing a more complex portrayal of Mary Jane, who isn't dependent on Parker or Spider-Man and lives her own life. But a video game that wants to appeal to the mass-market ain't exactly the right place for those kinds of experiments.

Lol so I have to read some comics in order to adequately shit on this game? I'm just a casual who likes the first two Raimi movies and wants to have decent Spider-Man game to play, nothing more. Sorry if this hurts your comic nerd sensibilities  :yeshrug

The version of Mary Jane they're putting in this game is the least popular Mary Jane though. You'd think they'd want to incorporate a more popular ver..... oh wait, Marvel's internal team is writing the story. The same Marvel that can't push 100k in sales without releasing a #1 issue. Their flagship title (Captain Marvel) consistently does 20k I think.

Don't get me wrong. I'm just as casual as you. I'm just aware of the supreme Mary Jane personality. She doesn't have to be a reporter to show her strength as a character.

When the various creators say that Mary Jane's personality is too compelling to even use the original love interest Gwen Stacy  :lawd

When their marriage in the comics adds depth to both characters  :lawd

When Peter literally is down in the dumps, and Mary motivates him  :lawd

When beta male cuck Marvel writers erase their marriage and turn Peter into a cuck, who's divine moment is when he's killed by Green Goblin  :holeup

When Mary Jane is a reporter for no reason, other than to strip her of her unique personality and replace it with Lois Lane  :mindblown

When Peter Parker dates other women and Mary Jane is literally a fan fiction version of herself in the newer material  :kobeyuck

When they clone Peter because the comic where he's dead stops selling, and then they destroy the universe and start again  :heh :phil

When they make Mary Jane's love interest some random guy named Oli, whilst Peter dates a girl who labels her food in the fridge

 :noah :beli :comeon :snoop :trash

Stan Lee tried to divorce them and got backlash. Now, Social Studies Warrior Marvel doesn't understand why they can't sell Spider-Man comics, despite being their most popular character.

I'm not talking about the "Ultimate Spider-Man" video game. I'm talking about the comic series written by Brian Michael Bendis. The guy who created Miles Morales.

Also, if Marvel writers are writing it, it will definitely be "Ultimate Spider-Man: The Video Game" because they haven't had an original storyline in years. Marvel is at it's lowest point right now when it comes to sales to consumers, despite releasing popular box office smashes in the movies.

They will kill Peter if they get the chance. I just hope that it's not this game that happens in. I won't be buying a game where Peter dies and is replaced by a palette swap.

Without reading anything after this post. A lot of the times, yes. I've seen a number of developer interviews over the years where they talk about how awesome it is that they get to use some "underused" characters in their game. When it's really because they can't use stuff that might plausibly turn up in the movies or whatever.

I mean, there's obviously going to be a new Green Goblin in an upcoming Spider-Man film right? But if they put him in the game and design him and everything, that conflicts with whatever the movie comes up with if they're supposed to be set in the same universe. Everybody in the world can get over this, except the studios because there's internal politics power plays involved.

One of the benefits the PS1 era Spider-Man games had was they used the defunct animated series as a base so could use any and all of the villains and didn't have to worry about film approval, but Treyarch's next gen sequels that were supposed to be movie tie-ins couldn't use stuff not run past the studio first. Activision later separated those yearly Spider-Man games from the films so that they could use Venom and other popular villains in the game. (Along with distancing them from Spider-Man 3 and the films that came after, also the fact that they wanted to put them out every year or so.)

The Rocksteady Batman games started their own universe and went totally opposite Nolan's "realistic world" by embracing all the unrealistic characters and such, whereas the Batman Begins game was so hamstrung by following the film plot near exactly that it sat for long periods in development (as they waited on stuff they could use and getting access to stuff like the Tumbler) and then was rushed out to match the movies date. (As a kicker, the game used a lot of mechanics that Asylum later got praised for "introducing" like needing to use stealth, using the different gadgets, scaring enemies which makes them easier to take out, some gliding, etc. rather than being just a brawler like past Batman games but the game as a whole wasn't executed all that well outside of the presentation as it only had like a year and a half of development and was tied so hard to the movie plot that there's no real villains (bosses) to fight in it except random gang guys and Zsasz who they powered up from his cameo in the film. While Asylum got to use the whole rogue's gallery and more.)

Of course, this has also happened all over the place as these film franchises have taken off, Marvel has even been futzing with the comics of all things due to what licenses other companies still hold, namely the X-Men and mutants.

That reminds me, EA's Superman Returns ran into the same problem as their Batman Begins game. The film has no villains to use in a game. And they had to run everything through the studio. Whole chunks of the game disappeared from previews to release.

But damn is Supes breaking the sound barrier while flying in that game still hott. Even on the hideous PS2 version and less hideous Xbox version. Not to say that the 360 version isn't also kinda hideous for a 360 game.

This is a nice post, but Insomniac said this game has it's own story unrelated to the movies or the comics.  :doge

Of course, I don't believe the last part, especially if they are getting two bit Marvel hacks to write it.
