Sony outlines TGS 2019 plans

there isnt a conference this time. the "live show" is probably going to be more like the festival a few months ago, as in, just some online games like fortnite.
There are still a good number of games coming out, even if most are third party. There are still a few major releases Sony have lined up, that said I'm not surprised they'd wanna switch gears as their AAA games take a long ass time to make. GoW took 5 years. If they don't start working now, PS5 will be dry.
No pre-show eh? So, no Ape Escape? I swear Sony, your last chance is to announcing the game as PS5 launch title, or else...
Knack 3 PS5 announcement would do it to (almost?) all of us I bet.

personally, i dont see how does one affect the other.
how does not showing third party exclusives like yakuza 7, final fantasy 7 remake, nioh 2 (that one is funded by sony so technically first party), persona 5 royale etc. help them "gear up" for the playstation 5 reveal?
or alternatively, how does showing them in a TGS pre show hurts the next gen console reveal.
Not sure why people seem to think PS5 is going to usher in an instant flood of amazing games. It's not. Like every gen start it's going to be slow with more misses than hits. PS4 right now is at it's peak, if nothing interests you in terms of it's current line-up and up coming releases in the next ~12months then it's highly unlikely anything launching on PS5 is going either and justify paying ~$500 on top of.
activision doesn't really publish anything in japan. the new crash games are published by sega there, for example. with XB1 being very small, it makes sense to just let sony handle the publishing for CoD there.

I am pretty sure its at least partially funded, i might be wrong, correct me if you find something else.
But why not hold a sony conference to give those games more exposure? Judgement was revealed in sony's TGS pre show 2018.
Yeah Sony have been no goes at shows for so long and probably won't have one until the ps5 reveal in Feb/March. The hype is going to be through the roof however.
I've come to accept that we're not going to get Death Stranding gameplay until it's time for the reviews to come out.
Maybe because this year Sony has nothing new to announce.
And they don't wanted to make a show only for already known games.

TGS shows are not about sonys first party titles anyway, its about showing third party japanese titles, and they have a bunch of those coming.
Nope the next celebrity that will be in Death Stranding is going to be

Aww, I wanted something batshit insane like the space-faring Dualshock 4 again.
They're going to have an absolutely insane blowout when they do finally open the floodgates. I'm just surprised they haven't revealed the Japan Studio PS4 game that the producer keeps hinting at :/

Yeah, there are lots of very promising japanese 3rd party games coming and I also would like to see a show with all of them :)
But we will see new stuff from them at their TGS events.
Sadly no Granblue Relink because Cygames will have an december event like last year.
I'm just so confused. They are going into Christmas with essentially only Death Stranding, and then a lot of mystery surrounding the future of PlayStation. I'm still a believer that there is a PSX before the end of the year.
By comments before E3, it sounds like Sony feels there would be an expectation of new 1P announcements if they put on a conference of their own, and they don't want to drum up those expectations.
Sony spends a lot annually on marketing and co-marketing for third party and partner titles, so there is still the other normal supports for external titles.
Their output hasn't slowed down any though. Do you really need shows to play new games? Their output next year alone will be one of their biggest.
Sony is going all in with State of Plays events.
We are supposed to be getting one more this year and I imagine PSX will be a no go in favor of a Fall / Winter, State Of Play.
All the Gigatons are being saved up for Playstation Meeting 2020.
One or Two more State of Plays > Playstation Meeting 2020 > Full console reveal on either at E3 or a Sony-hosted event during the week of E3.
I'm okay with that schedule.
Energising times ahead.

Sony didn't cower in 2012 for the PS3, Xbox didn't drop out for the Xbox 360 or even this year for the Xbox One, even Nintendo barely hid during 2016 and when they did it was because there literally wasn't any Wii U games to talk about so they had an excuse. Sony doesn't have that problem especially with third parties. They're just cowering for some weird reason
Honestly if they throw their cards on the table and show their hand for what would be launch or near launch titles for the PS5 they are gonna screw up again
I'm going to be bummed out if there's no PSX this year. I was really looking forward to it in particular.
