State of Play announced for June 2. Over an hour long, with an extended look at Wolverine

Would it be too crazy to expect the GTA6 trailer?

We're at that point in the franchise's lifecycle where rockstar do not give a fuck about Console events or trade shows. So, yes it is a little crazy to expect them here.

They'll drop the final trailer on a random teusday when everyone's watching primetime tv and open the preorders the next day.
 
I just chose 20 minutes as an over / under starting point.

I think Starfield had a 30 minute in depth presentation before launch.

I'd just be curious to hear what the expectation is for "an extended look into Wolverine" (title of this thread) as I can tell me dentist to use that time for my root canal.
oh, that "over/under" bit is practically the question... not a native speaker so did not understand that. Google translate understands it but also never translates it in that way back. lol

Obviously would not want more than 10 probably not even more than 5 minutes on Wolverine. Can't watch those Nintendo Directs because they have way too often way too detailed and usually super boring segments that would be kinda interesting as an unlockable in the game after I played it but way too much info beforehand. In depth looks should be separate things, not part of a presentation for several games. 2 or 3 good self explanatory trailers are much better than having to explain what is shown or what the devs where thinking in the design process or some other behind the scenes shit.
 
It's a Wolverine game. It's an Insomniac game. When was the last bad game from that studio lol

Spiderman 2 is actually not popular within the fan base. Not because of wokism but because of the lackluster the story and lack of content in general. If you read opinions online you'll see how unpopular this game is unfortunately
 
please be good

I Hope Please GIF


PS 1P hasn't had a certified banger since Astro Bot
Ghost of Yotei
 
I Want the following:

Wolverine controller pre-orders
RE9 VR2 and RE9 DLC
Intergalactic date
Halo date
FF7 Pt 3
Fight stick pre-orders
Ace Combat 8 VR2 and window
Onimusha date
Some Konami dates
 
The fact that they announce it 2 weeks prior and sell tickets to theatres showing it live is an indication of it being a really important and big show, at least in their eyes

I would've been way more excited if there hadn't been quite a few big swings and misses in the recent years, making their judgement pretty questionable

Hopefully Halo gets pulled to be an Xbox exclusive again, but the rest would be cool.
 
Hopefully Wolverine looks good. Show will end with either another Intergalatic trailer or the reveal of the God of Ware Fate spinoff.
 
I'm not shit-stirring but why are so many people assuming this Wolverine game is going to be the greatest thing since sliced bread?

Read loads of comments online from ps5 owners taking the piss out of bemused pc owners that they won't be getting it.

You reading warrior takes and wondering why there are warrior takes?
 
The problem with Sony is that the games need better graphics. Back in the PS3 era we had The Last of Us, now the games seem like they can just be ported to PS4, and that's not good. No graphics, no hype Wolverine will be cool because of the plot, but I don't believe the graphics will be much better than Spider-Man 2's.
 
Curious to see if the combat is just another freeflow iteration or they went with something original.
The official footage looked more or less the same with just brutality dialed up. The leaks did show a bit more focus on parrying and waiting for enemies to make the first move, but that's about it. I wouldn't expect any overhaul of combat.
 
Less than zero interest in Wolverine...

But, I hope we get release dates from all the Summer shows for:

Tomb Raider Legacy of Atlantis
Control Resonant
Star Wars Zero Company and Galactic Racer
Fable if it releases this year

Did the last trailer even had like 10-15 sec of uninterrupted combat or it was just a collage of gorey finishers?

I think they are gonna go with the safe route, one of the reason why they can kick games out so fast but i still want to see more, wolverine character doesnt really have exciting traversal methods like spidey where going from point a to b was already part of the fun, they need to focus all the gameplay effort for the combat so i expect at least something slightly different from spidey.

Wolvy is an heavy character so i hope the combat doesnt just look 1:1 with the arkham games but just with more gore and some meter to fill for 15 sec of rage power or some shit.

Sony does not need better graphics, they need better games, i would prefer to play all PS3 library of exclusives all over again ( they just need better resolution and frames, God be praised for RPCS3 ) than playing anything that Sony released in the PS5 generation.

Their teams are big enough to deliver both if they want to, let's not settle for the bare minimum when you pay 80 fucking euros for a game...

Let nintendo be the only one who can get a pass for that.

i know, but if i had to choose, i would choose to have better games, Sony dropped the ball hard seeking for modern audiences validation and gaas, i hope they turn around next gen and go back to delivering great exclusive experiences as they did back in the PS2-3-4 era.

The visuals are the last thing to be concerned about.

Sure but they can dial back all the woke and modern bullshit without giving up on production values.

I would have thought that before, but with Xbox basically being a rounding error when it comes to physical sales numbers, it's all on Sony and their (now much more expensive) console to carry the heavy load of sales needed to cover the insane budget for this game.

Sure they could do their usual thing by releasing it on a random day of the week, but wouldn't it be in their best interest to do it in an event that promotes the main platform that the majority of their sales are going to rely on? In order to generate the most hype and increase in hardware sales and thus preorder numbers?

I mean, at this point Sony and Rockstar kinda both need each other at peak performance on this one. They call that "Synergy" in corpospeak
It wouldn't be 100% impossible, but it would be a huge surprise.

Rockstar doesn't need any console event for GTA VI. I don't think they're interested in sharing the gaming world's attention with other games... and especially I don't think the other unannounced games and studios at the event would be very happy or willing to share the spotlight with a GTA VI gameplay trailer 😅
 
I think we'll get a Faye of War teaser and maybe a Intergalactic trailer (or will save one for SGF). I doubt we'll see gameplay of Intergalactic as I feel new Sony now hides anything like that until 4-5 months prior to release.

I also think we'll see a Resident Evil Code Veronica remake announcement from Capcom.

The game has an 8.6 on metacritic and a 4.74 (based on over 230k people) on PS store.

Did those people forget to rate the game?
 
Hopefully it will have some neat third-party announcements. Maybe a release date for the Onimusha game. Or a formal announcement of FF7 Remake Part 3.
