So Activision would sell the IP? And Sony was just too broke?

No ghost gameplay, don't even think we've seen a hdd. Can't tell you how much works really. There's no waypoints and the e3 demo was a side quest that's about all I got. Would've been cool at least if they did it the tlou2 way announce the date and all that gameplay followed
Exactly. Why should they blow their load (lol) so early. It's like 7-8 months before these consoles are coming to customers.
Look at Nintendo Switch. We got specs and everything 3 months before launch or something like that. Just because we already want to know everything, doesn't mean their marketing is bad.
Pretty sure the virus affects Microsoft, too. And they don't have any issues to reveal XSX informations and specs since December 2019.
A lot of people are at home right now. Surfing through the internet and having too much time. Revealing some PS5 news these days would be great actually. But them not doing it.... yeah, whatever. Sony's messaging is a mess right now.
I actually like to see these videos and think I'm watching an advance on PS5. The systems are said to be similar enough for any function seen here to exist also on Sony's side. Shorter loading times, for example, was one of the first things we knew about the system.
Wow, Xbox had a pretty big blowout today.
Watching Austin Evans right now.
He's going over almost everything.

Nah it must be worse and they are scared to say something now. That is the only logical conclusion.

In the isolated view of video game enthusiast discussion, everything is viewed from real-time perspective.
Which is funny, you'd assume people would have played a turn-based RPG or strategy game before...Or hell, played anything that required any semblance of forward thinking...
Oh I agree there is more then one way to deal with what's going on but even though the core gamers are all home and will see this news, the casual gamer might not becuase of all the other things happening.
We just dont know right now if MS revealing info during the pandemic is the better decision. They most likely are just sticking to their release plans and Sony may have chose to reschedule around the crisis. I'm fairly confident it will be a moot point once Sony drops their info and things are close to what MS has.
People are fundamentally competitive, and seeing "X" happen while "Y" didn't will have people asking "why isn't Y doing X instead" because in the moment that is what matters.
Less we forget, not that long ago we had a slate of pathetic fools being getting wrangled up over their the idea that exiting video game events because of occupational and public health concerns was an overreaction or how Nintendo choosing to "deviate" from their Nintendo Direct presentation non-committed schedule of having one in January/Feb caused people to fucking panic.
Good lord, some of y'all blaming them for not reacting to a worldwide, deadly pandemic and releasing news about a fuckin game console. Incredible.
Doubt it. But let's see what they have planned now. Gonna be interesting, because SIE these days is a comedy goldmine.
Didn't they say no hud? They also show the MC with a bow on the box art and we haven't seen that yet either. I don't need convincing but others might.
I'm sure it's irritating but that is exactly what jim is doing. I mean come on how do you announce hzd for pc and not give anything out for the ps5?
Specs are probably finalized by now what are they waiting for? A proper event? Cause that shit ain't happening any time soon.
Yet MS are doing just fine. And you don't need to risk anyones lives with announcing specs and ps5 features at the very least.
I definitely think it's a good idea. People need to distract themselves from this stuff for a bit. Heightened stress can adversely affect your immune system. I personally needed some exciting information this morning to help push through this week.
That last sentence is where I think the issue is. That may be true among a certain subset of gamers but too most core and especially casual gamers Sony still makes great games and is releasing a huge game in 2 months. Those people are not mocking them for being silent.
It was a nice announcement. Perfectly fits the "new" SIE these days.
They don't want to start the hype up for a console that might not make it's 2020 expected date, that's all it is.
No its really not so many places on lock down so many people worried and dying a console aint going to cheer them up its silly.
We dont even know if consoles even launching this year, this virus is going to change alot of things as things gets worse worldwide everyday.
Difference is MS released some infos regularly since Dec with a reveal of the console itself
So before the COVID 19 blowout, there was concrete information on Series X
Even with 2 Wired articles, we don't have "concrete" info about PS5, except some general stuff
If Sony want to fully reveal their console without being flooded by COVID-19 news, they will probably wait for that situation to calm a bit
I mean I don't even get where this is coming from. Has internet use signficantly reduced in the last few weeks? If not, then releasing more info is perfectly valid, and will be picked up upon. The DF video has already got a tidy amount of views, so obviously people are watching...
Everything going further dark will cause more panic. It's good to have news in dark times to help alleviate some anxiety. Like I said before, less stress=stronger immune system. Plus these events are planned and shot weeks in advanced so this is why we're getting them now. I hope we get more and I foresee a Nintendo Direct. One of the things that are going to help people get through this is video games.
What we know about Series X that really matters on concrete representation of what the games will be :
-SSD technology with less loading times
-Hardware based Ray-Tracing
What we know about PS5 that really matters on concret representation of what games will be :
-SSD technology with less loading times
-Hardware based Ray-Tracing.
The rest, is "concrete" but knowing about "12 Teraflops" "RNDA 2" and stuff doesn't really help on imagine what will the games be...
People are very worried and it's understandable. But the notion that everything should just stop is quite ridiculous. I fully agree with large public gatherings to halt because that's a health risk. But videos on the internet that were filmed like a week ago? C'mon now. People need to be a little more rational. All of these precautions are being made (in America) in order to keep from literally flooding our healthcare system. But this is Resetera.
And yet, the other stuff is important + clear communication, something Sony didn't reveal yet and lacks right now
That's why so many people spam their post asking PS5 reveal
The SSD technology with less loading times would have been cool with a concrete demo showing this on PlayStation YouTube and not via a leaked video of a journalist during a conf call some days after the Wired article
Well since the reveal MS hasn't called the S most powerful next gen console when they did before it was revealed so maybe.
Seriously, this is something worth bitching about. Folks are crying about how many jiggawhats their next $500 console might be while I just want to know how a game that comes out 3 months from now actually plays moment to moment. Hell, we still only have B-roll footage for The Last of Us 2.
I really wonder how Sony is gonna handle its marketing and especially early hands-on with how close it is to Part II. Hands-on stuff should be soon because otherwise it will overlap with the The Last of Us Part II pre-launch hypetrain.
Sony has already made it very clear that it will not do anything "just" because Microsoft is throwing Series X info out there. Today will be no different.
Sony is also doing just fine. MS style isn't only and best option there.
Hands-on with whom? I doubt Sony is flying journalists out to their studios considering their action plan against C-19. Unless they're planning on sending out preview codes for download?

Why are you thinking MS and Sony are the same ?
Just in mindshare MS is far behind Sony .
Even in term of marketing plans there different since Sony cancel stuff way before everyone else and they were also not going at E3.
In fact if the virus effect launch Sony will feel it much more than MS since the would need to ship more console than them since they sell more in other regions.
