Yep, i still remember the first showing of Killzone: Mercenary had terrible frame rate. It seems to be greatly improved for now although there is still optimization left, which is usually the last part of the development.
HouseMarque is reportedly working on two PS4 exclusives, I would expect atleast one of them at gamescom. I doubt we would see both announced side by side, but you never know.
I enjoy their work so im excited to see what they are doing. Also hoping for some Dead Nation Vita gameplay.

Can I just please have a new damn Ape Escape game for my Vita?
The system has a billion stupid features that just scream "use me to catch time traveling monkeys damnit!!!!!!"

Dude you are missing out on all the great psn content at the very least.
Killzone could easily show some huge improvements just from a quick glance at multiplayer. A gritter map setting, more post processing, better models, more weapons with recoil and some environmental destruction like the pillars on Radec Academy in KZ2 would go a long way.

I'd love to be wrong, but I'm honestly not expecting any new PS4 titles to be announced.
They really, really should, but I have a feeling their other titles just aren't ready to be shown yet.

Housemarque make it so. I love SSHD so so so so much. I bought every version of Super Stardust released on a PlayStation platform
I hope so. I could also see that being a game near launch.

I hope we see a blowout of info on Shadow Fall's MP.
Besides The Order I was really disappointed with Sony's E3. They won some phony baloney war with MS but they didn't deliver as much as I would have liked. They really got to show the goods next month, I want to know about most of the first year exclusives and show me gameplay of the order.

Does anyone know how long Sony's conference is going to be?

What? Sony didn't try with the PSP. Third parties did, since many of them had already dumped a lot of money into developing for the system early on (assuming it would easily topple Nintendo's DS and GBA platforms).
To be fair they announced four of their games before E3
About an hour.

I want to see Killzone's multiplayer in action, launch titles, and indies.

Par for the course, it seems. I really wish Sony would do something for the device, because I think it has a lot of potential to at least do decent sales-wise.

Every PS4 game announcement is a PSV announcement.

I hope Sony announces more launch games. Still hoping for something killer for this year... Killzone SF looks great but the rest is uncertain at the moment for me...
Last Guardian maybe ?

I agree. We need more Cboat types period. Posters like him make this forum that much more special.

Will I be pleased with my hopes that big new PS4 games will be shown?

Will I? Don't lead me like this man, I was like top 25 or top 30 in SSHD, that thing was my crack addiction for like 6 months. SSHD on PS4 WILL make me pre-order the console right then and there.

I'm guessing no word on a new Dragoon or Parappa, huh?
They've already said that they're working on a spiriutal successor for it.

I wouldn't be surprised if it's now multiplatform. If it fails to show at Gamescom, then it may no longer be a Vita title at all.
I know that, I just wasn't expecting it to show up at gamescom, I really hope its a launch title

Is The Order a 2014 game?

No way. They said development started earlier this year when they got their first dev kit.
I'd assume March-June for The Order.

I haven't heard a peep.
Though honestly the only games I know about in Japan that are coming are Knack, GT6 (eventually... probably fall 14) and The Last Guardian (insert joke here). So there's still teams there that we have no idea what they are working on. But is it TGS stuff...? Or like TGS 2015 stuff? Development runs so long sometimes that it's hard to predict. Is there a gravity rush 2 coming to the vita? I always assumed so but honestly haven't heard a single peep about it since last year (which at that point was 'looks like they will'). I don't think anyone around here really has a direct connection into the japan studios. TGS remains the one show that I don't ever know shit about... other than I know FROM has something, but I have no idea if it will be at TGS or if it is further off.
As for the actual vita, I'm curious. In all of my digging I've never even gotten a sniff of whatever game Shahid is talking about. There are a few current gen games that are supposedly being ported that I expected at E3 but weren't there... is that because they were canned or is it because they aren't ready? I dunno. But going into next year I have absolutely zero idea what their big game plans are. We had heard rumblings about Killzone since the launch and Tearaway has been known about for a year... but I don't think Sony has mentioned a single game coming after Tearaway which is the end of November. I know gamescom is mostly about setting up the fall/holiday... but goddamn they need to show that there is stuff coming next year for the vita.
