I personally had very little interest in Alan Wake but am interested in this. It's a TPS, sure, but I'm liking the way the time mechanic seems to be, also the game's visual style/effects looks cool to me.
If you count "this game will have morpheus support" and include the entire game's demonstration into account, then maybe. I honestly don't expect more than 15 minutes, and that would require a game demo or two to fill that time.
LOL, 15 minutes it is then.

Agree, some of the best games still come from japan imo (Souls, Bloodborne, Persona for example). I also find they are very unique and creative, find a lot of western games are copies of themselves.

Exactly. It's going to be a tough sell showcasing that tech in the environment of a live conference. I know it, you know it, but I'm worried that the execs who decide what gets shown and what doesn't aren't savvy enough to quite grasp why it's a bad idea.

Yup. In fact, I'd expect most first-party and third-party exclusives from Sony to support Morpheus when it releases.

You can't deny the potential entertainment value of such an occurrence, however
However, I believe guys like Shu and House are savvier then that. Talk about the tech (which according to people who've demoed it is amazing), why we want to buy one, give us a good price point and launch date w/titles, and move on.

I hope it does well as well. SOme of the underwater VR stuff would just be too much fun.
Yup. Tuesday is when shit starts to get real for me. Can't wait for that embargo to life and I definitely can't wait for a new trailer at E3

That makes no sense at all. Morpheus is the kind of thing that makes sense to talk about at an E3 event. Wonderbook and Powers are not.
I honestly could've sworn it was at E3 or PSX last year where they themselves mentioned that this is not something they will demo on stage as it doesn't showcase the true experience, and to go "experience it for yourself on the showloor" instead, but I tried sifting through both the conferences and could not find it. Did I just imagine that? Or am I some sort of psychic and saw a vision of what they were going to say in this conference instead? LOL.
Do you know if P5 will be at E3 on PS4?
I'm pretty sure it will be but its nice to have some form of confirmation.

I am just more curious to see how it will hold. I mean getting support is great, but they also need to sell well to maintain it.
That wasn't my point. My point was that those segments drag on for too long.

The "First on Xbox" thing was only for the first single-player DLC and is no longer in play, apparently. I'm guessing we'll see a trailer at EA's conference.
GDC I think? I remember watching and hearing that a couple days ago.
I'm so excited for Morpheus. It's something that I'm going to buy unlike Powers or Wonderbook, so I don't care if they spend a long time on it.
If No Man's Sky and The Witness are confirmed to use Morpheus, that would make my E3. Hope to see a release date for those games, too.

Level 5 are already confirmed to be showing a game, and I'm sure Japan Studio has been up to a lot since Knack. Gravity Rush 2? Gran Turismo 7? I wouldn't bet on Japanese games not having a decent presence at their show.

I honestly don't think thats possible. They could spend 40 minutes talking about Morpheus and that'd be better than 4 10 minute segments on some third party non exclusive games.

Nice that we are finally talking about Morpheus guys for those of you believing it will fail, It won't. The execs have already mentioned it will have amazing launch title support and I can confirm they already have 20 games that will support it at launch. Nice piece of tech, wonder how many games they will announce at E3 with so many devs interested in porting games to it.
I've seen an alternate reality. Through the The Matrix I met Morpheus.
It was 15 minutes of pure Wonderbook-esque bliss.
To be honest you should just prepare yourself for a likely Morpheus blowout.
I've already accepted that potential fate.
As Verendus talked about VR it seems that Sony is aware people need to try it more than see.
We've got plenty of media with VR, but most don't, or at least not a major release for VR. And people need to try demos at E3, markets(gamestop) and other placea. That's the way.
Saying that I mean it sound unreasonable to go on a conference focused on VR itself, instead, as I've cited GT7 cockpit on my last post, they should do this smothly and with several demos to try it there.
I just feel Sony has strong cards to play yet they won't play all of them. Instead they'll go with the weak and stupid cards and play few strong cards.
Strong cards (IMO)
-Gravity Rush 2
-Ratchet and Clank PS4
UC4 will be there no doubt
- Persona 5 (I hope they show)
- Level 5's ps4 game
- GG new IP
-Bend's new IP
- GG Cambridge game (most likely a no show)
- Time
- everybody goes to the rapture
- shadows of the beast
- WiLD
- Tomorrow Children
- Until Dawn
- MM's new IP
- Sony London's Morpheus IP
And of course, The Last Gaurdian
And now to the shit cards:
-move
-3rd party BS
- TV
-sales sales sales
- Shawn Layden ( sorry Shawn, you don't know Jack on talking to gamers unlike Uncle Jack tretton)
- more than 20 minutes on Morpheus

I'm not convinced it will. I personally love the Persona series, but JRPGs aren't the emerging juggernaut they were in the days of FFVII. The tech for FFVII back in the day was staggering and let's face it, quite a few people who had never played an RPG period were buying it for the way it looked, not for gameplay or story or the FF name. I remember a few kids in my HS who picked it up for the graphics, then got bored because it wasn't hack n'slash. We'll see, but I have my doubts. Today's crowd wants Uncharted 4, Battlefront, CoD, Destiny etc. Not that there's anything wrong with that.....I'm drooling for the first two. But my point is: FFVII was absolutely, unequivocally a PS system seller. Those days are gone.
But it'd be nice, because I really want P5 in the worst way.

I'd get in my car, that's what.
Hell yes!
So hyped for this game that I bought the Playstation UK mag with the article and artwork to be shipped over here to USA. Also just preordered the new Venom Snake sneaking suit Play Arts Kai figure.
This isn't something I've seen brought up at all: what do you think is the likelihood of GG Cambridge announcing their (assumedly) PS4 Killzone game at E3? It's been almost 2 years now, and they've proven themselves to be able to do quick turnarounds on games. It seems more like a PGW announcement to me, maybe, but I wouldn't be surprised to see it as a Morpheus title. They need their FPS if they're launching a VR headset, and Killzone's already used Move before!
Not sure if this is new or not but the NA ATLUS website is now listing Persona 5 as a "late" 2015 title.
So it looks like its coming out in the west this year too. Thank god.

I hope.
I doubt Media Molecule would create a 60 fps UGC game. If anything, they will have some segments of the game with Morpheus support (such as sculpting), but I really don't think they will aim for the whole gaime to be created for VR (optional or not).
0%.
They'll get Horizon out there first.
This have been known all the time.
They always said its a 2015 title but its good there sticking to it.

Agreed if the online is still like MGO then this is the only fall game i need. May even splurge on some Astro A-50s

Microsoft has some things that are still under wraps. I think Microsoft Studios is making big bets on two of their smaller studios, Press Play and Twisted Pixel. Twisted Pixel is making a new "AAA" IP. In addition, they are still willing to make big bets on small studios like Moon (Ori) and Undead Labs (State of Decay).
I'm also pretty sure that Fable Legends is going to be the last Fable game that Lionhead makes.
Gears, Halo and Forza will continue to be pillar franchises for Xbox for the foreseeable future but I don't think that means that other games won't bet getting the green light.
I know some people tend to scoff at what Phil Spencer says but he does talk about needing franchises that fit within different genres. If you take a holistic view of their current first party offerings, you'll gain insight on his next big bets.
They have a strong presence in the sci-fi FPS, sci-fi TPS and driving genres. They have a killer zombie game, a good fighter and, now, a great Metroidvania (Ori). There are major holes in the following:
Action/Adventure
Platformer (3D and 2D)
RPGs (I would only expect large bets that would appeal to Western audiences)
Software development takes time though and given the pivot away from Kinect, I think they are behind the eight ball a little bit. They have probably cancelled multiple Kinect projects but haven't had anything to fill the holes with.

Would be funny to see a "better with morpheus" tag on the supporting games.

Here's to hoping for Wonderbook 2 #buildingthelist
IIRC, though it was assumed, they never used the word "late."
