PlayStation Experience 2015 Thread: The Year of Dreams

Did I miss anything good, overall impression?

Well that was one weird way to end your presentation... Guess it was alright, nothing new in the mix for me really.
 
Just you.

OMG This so much...I don't care about pacing, I don't care that the VR people looked silly on stage, everything gameplay wise looked full of potential. I honestly think Gaf doesn't really play as much games as the hardcore is assumed to. Certainly wasn't the best presented conference but OMG, some amazing looking games coming, and honestly, so much was already announced this year.

2016 is stupid...this is when next-gen starts IMO.

Lots of games coming to PS4. Which is what matters.

I definitely experienced hype at several moments throughout the presentation, unlike some of the Debbie downers here. F.A.N.G./Ono/SFV DLC, KOFXIV (which I thought looked better than before), Last Blade II on PSN, Hob, FFVIIR, instant FFVII port, Nino Kuni II, Ratchet & Clank, Ni-Oh, and several smaller indie games were highlights for me.

The whole VR segment on the other hand still left me in a state of doubt for whether I'll ever manage to jump into that stuff and appreciate it to be honest. Not to discount the stuff before ever trying it, but in a way it all still feels similar to the forced push towards motion gaming that never panned out for the most part.

A few things that did make me wonder were the following:
- why a new Ace Combat but no new Ridge Racer?
- why the Crash shirt but no actual announcement or tease? (Did he not learn from Vib Ribbon or is he planning to use the backlash this time to see it get made?)
- where was the teased Santa Monica game with the dancing feet?
- no Sony Bend game?
- no Last Guardian, Rime or Shadow of the Beast?
- no mention of the PS2 games coming to PS4 (unless I missed it)?
- no Legend of Dragoon reboot / sequel as I had hoped?

Overall, I'm very positive though!

People need to do what I do and not waste time watching the stupid events and just get all the news after the fact.

I had a great day and came back to some cool news / videos. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Not actually that important
Can anybody please link me to an archived feed of the event NOT via Twitch?
The op doesn't have ine (click on it and it'll go live with commercials and snippets of trailers but not the full thing and you can't go back to the proper keynote).

Possibly Youtube.

Or, is the one you can access (can you still?) access via Events on PS4 (eu folks too?) the full archived version or it does mirror the luvestream in the op which I mentioned above?

Thanks!
Don't want spoilers, that is the main reason :)

A PM would be awesome but a post will do ok too!

You wouldnt be dissapointed by the lack of GoW if you would just believed @corybarlog , when he said that its still early.

Barlog retweeted this by some guy called Dennis. Sigh. E3 then. Or maybe they will hold an event before that like they did with Ascension.

I honestly don't get the massive expectations GAF has for this event. It's their fourth conference of the year, of course it's going to be filled with indies and other "left overs", with maybe one or two major announcements. The blockbuster games are obviously going to be saved for E3, not some side conference that only appeals to hardcore PlayStation fans.

That said, Ni no Kuni 2, Full Throttle remastered and FFVII gameplay alone made it worthwhile to me.

Cool event. Can't see why people would be disappointed with that. Most of the indie titles seem exiting to me. We know The Last Guardian is coming, come on.

The only thing I want now is Wipeout
and Noby Noby Boy VR

The "shitshow" comment made me cringe though.

I'm quite satisfied. Some cool surprises and lots of interesting looking games. But thats probably because I don't hang around gaming on GAF that much anymore. Don't buy into the hypetrains and not always expecting megatons. It feels nice and I can't get really disappointed for hyping myself up for something that was never going to be there.

There were actually some great reveals (FFVII:R gameplay, Ni no Kuni 2, Rez VR), but there were too many things that didn't need to be there. The COD league thing and the Battlefront kills montage were time wasters. The VR tech demo on stage was a disaster. Ending on Paragon was also a dumb decision. If they had just cut out the fat, closed the show with FFVII:R gameplay instead, it would've been a much better show.

PlayStation channel on Twitch has archive if you want to see the whole thing. Or if you want to just see trailers and don't care about talking, PlayStation channel on yt should have the individual trailers.
 
Well that was pretty disappointing for people not into Japanese games and VR. Was Sony 1st party nowhere to be seen again except for Uncharted and that VR game? No firmware updates?

Uncharted 4, Horizon, The Last Guardian, Ratchet & Clank, Persona 5.

Gravity Rush 2 is probably not AAA to some, but there is no clear definition as what makes a game AAA anyway.

isn't defining triple A due to budget, production value and also rating?

ehhhh, could be better. Hopefully get some more announcements soon. Adam boyes said this year was sparse, yikes for next year. Lets not have a repeat of the last 2 holidays where nothing came out as well

I don't mind the exclusive coming through out the year and playing 3rd party games during the holidays.

I get that as well, but next year doesn't look that well even compared to this year, it looks sparse again. I am not liking 2016 for sony in my personal opinion, uncharted, and last guardian will be great. horizon if it makes it out cool, but what else. I feel it just wet my appetite and am looking for something else

But at what budget does AAA begin?

I think generally with some volume of games we can define AAA with budgets such as, halo, uncharted, quantum break, god of war, gears of war etc

Maybe also Detroid: Become Human and Dreams? And Gran Turismo?

Also, I am kind of expecting some more major announcements after Uncharted 4 has done it's job. Sony Bend, Santa Monica (God of War?) and maybe even Sucker Punch (they have a good base with Second Son, if they want to make another infamous).

I am hoping, has there been any E3 announcements for games that come out the same year however? I dont know if i see any bi game announcements in march-aprilish
