People have been wary and critical of the State of Play series so far, due to a variety of reasons. Some of them make sense, such as Sony not managing to set expectations properly ahead of the first couple of episodes (though I personally greatly enjoyed them both). Others come down to console war reasons.
Whatever the reason, Sony's performance and success with the State of Play brand has been under a lot of scrutiny. I think with this newest stream, they have finally achieved a great balance of smaller and larger announcements, with good slick production values and great pacing all around. All around, I see the response to the newest SOP being very positive, and I think people are coming around to the format.
I personally hope Sony continues with these going forward on a permanent basis (though I would also want annual PSX conferences, at the very least), and I think the newest episode shows that this format has a lot of traction for Sony, specifically.
What do you have to say about this?
