Sony's silence with PlayStation is just awful as there is no communication

Would've been kinda nice if more than one game in that list excites me. TLOU 2 is going to be amazing but the rest of those games are not exciting. That's OK and all considering how many great games have already released but I'm looking at the upcoming games on PS4 and it's in single digits how many I'm going to buy for the whole year.

well they had a unique thing going, Quantic Dream games helped playStation stand out by having those type of games as exclusive, It wasn't always the dude bro shooters
I mean, we already know about Ghost of Tsushima, The Last of Us 2, Days Gone, Death Stranding, Dreams and more. Their other 1st party studios are likely deep into sequels for the PS5 (Guerrilla Games) or have only just released a game (Sony Santa Monica).
If they've nothing new to say, I'd rather they said nothing at all.

Of course, Sony will create a studio just to make a game that suits your taste, don't worry.
Bingo. Busy playing games instead of participating in the platform war theatre.
What does Sony even need to communicate? They are the lead system, they have a 1st party title coming out in April, TLOU2 is slated to come out in the fall, and they are working on the PS5. What do people need them to say?
Hell, they released two games last year that both sold over 10 million copies.

i did.
Stadia = 0
Xbox = Forza, Gears (maybe).
Also, i don't know why sony needs to enter the playground match and show off as per the others "Look at what we are going to do!" every month.
Show. Don't tell.
Show the games instead of talking about it.
Then actually release a good game instead of apologizing about it and say "We will listen to user feedback" and spout the words "community" ad naseum.
I mean I'd love that of course! :)
How many of those games excite you? The original user asked the question after all...
Lol. It's so funny when people don't understand that the general market doesn't care about constant updates with trivial information that only the hardcore audience care about. First of all, do you think the PC space is going to notice if Sony sents a press release about QD games coming to PC? In addition, do people realise that the market cares more about third party games (that have been releasing at a crazy pace) and not about exclusives that are years away? Everybody knows what first party games are coming and Sony has made sure PlayStation stays relevant by winning countless GOTY awards and spamming everything with Days Gone trailers.
The last time i checked the studios they bought were pretty much exclusively making games for them anyway save for ninja theory. What else?
I don't have a single dude bro shooter on my ps4. Whatcha talking about.
Yeah pretty much. Besides, I rather they say something when they have something worth saying versus other companies who make announcements for the sake of making announcements.
Honestly apart from the PSVR game and the Rick and Marty one, I am excited about and plan on buying all the others!
They have a bunch of first party games coming up and they get basically every third party title, multiplat or not. The game stream is steady. What's there to talk about?
There is communication, look at previews of Days Gone along with the marketing campaign or dreams beta stuff/MM's community engagement or even the new Yakuza game protag being announced, Crash team racing being constantly pushed on instagram via nostalgia fueled clips.
I think you want more news to use as "forum fodder" more than anything else
Most of them, I like my third peson cinematic games and rpgs :)
Even as a primarily Nintendo fan I feel like I know a lot about Playstation's near future. There's a lot of good games waiting to be released, I'm pretty sure any significant game will be released on PS4 by default, and it feels like they could unveil PS5 anytime. Like there's nothing to worry about it.
I dunno man, let the devs do their thing. Talking constantly about upcoming games will put more unessecary pressure on devs.
Whether your thirst for info was satisfied or not, the fact is that updates for both these games have been shown regularly each year and we'll get more with release windows/dates whenever Sony's ready for their big announcements.
I know this because that's just how things work, I don't need Shawn to come whisper sweet nothings on my timeline because I've got plenty of shit to play (including a high-profile upcoming exclusive) in the meantime.
I understand that ditching E3 is scary or whatever but we're still in March. How about we save the doom and gloom for this summer at least if nothing's announced ?

I'd like more communication about the upcoming PS4 updates and when name changes are happening. That has seemingly fell off the edge of the world now.
Go back and have a look at all the "communication" Sony does outside of E3 and major conferences.
Sony's always been criticised for being "silent" outside of their major showcases - every year like clockwork.

I think playstation is in a very good place right now actually. Microsoft are trying to convince people that the xbox brand is going to be exciting again, where as Sony doesn't need to do that.

Even if it's not about the games, would be cool to learn about any updates on improving PlayStation Now or even PSN
So they didn't go away. Next games of QD are still to come out for PS.
And future doesn't look bright for Playstation? Don't agree but well.
This thread. Holyshit LMFAOOOO
In before it becomes an ERA Lengendary thread.
Never change, ERA. EVER.

Like games added to the service or it expanding to other markets?
I can see why this could be somewhat frustrating.. you always want to know more. But Playstation has had a lot of stuff coming out in the first quarter of the year, there are still many high profile games coming in the future.
I'm sure the vast majority of PS4 owners cares 0% that QD games are playable on another platform going forward... it doesnt remove the games from Playstation :P

They just expanded ps now to more countries last week and added the the download option to ps4 and ps2 games a while ago?
It's hard not to draw parallels to the end of last gen when Microsoft had a change of direction near the end of the generation that knee capped them starting the current gen where as Sony was the one who used the end of the generation to build goodwill to carry them into the next cycle.
If the start of this gen shows anything it's that complacency isn't a good strategic move and customers will jump off your ecosystem in droves if you mess up no matter how much they are currently invested.

Exactly there's nothing to talk about.. Post Days Gone maybe we'll talk about a Medieval release date and Dreams EA
Really. Taste really varies.
Outside of concrete genie i'm going to buy all of them day 1. Can't wait tbh.
If you can't brag about the future of games on my platform of choice, why even play games?
/s
Im curious OP is there any news specifically you wanna know about from Sony? Seems to be normal to me still releasing games and we know for a fact they are getting the ball rolling on the PS5.
Patience you must have -Yoda

Crazy to see a 180° from both parties
That's... not a lot
Exactly, i always expected their contract to finish and game popping out on other consoles. Nobody should be surprised
Do Sony really not have any equivalent of Inside Xbox?
A company not having constant interaction and updates is pretty weird these days.

I prefer they keep their mouth shut instead of spilling pr bs all the time like Phil
I remember how excited people were over DX12 and cloud destruction and how it was going to shape the future of gaming, Tell me how did that go for Crackdown 3 and Fable legends?
Let's not even mention the Windows store, Phil has been promising us an overhaul for years now
I honestly don't know why people love to eat up this corporate pr bs so much
As for Quantic Dream, their games were never system sellers, their best selling game Detroit only shipped like 2 million copies I think
Also David Cage happens to hate sequels for some reason, which is why these IP's are pretty much useless, since these games will most likely never recieve a sequel anyways
Going 3rd party will help them reach a wider audience and we get to play their games maxed out on pc with mods
win win

I assume they're busy.
Also, who would willingly have a chat with the gaming community, unless they absolutely have to? Everything they say will be torn to pieces and then tossed back into their faces at a later date with a "But you PROMISED us!".
Jokes aside, while I would like to know more about PSVR2, it's not something I need to know right now. I find it sort of refreshing to see devs acting professionally and with some dignity.

Sony line-up for 2019 is non-existent: they have Dreams which is a budget games, probably Medievil (can't remember if it's 2019) that should be a budget release too, Days Gone which is a zombie game I'll probably get for 20€ or less and nothing else.
There are rumors about Last of Us 2 releasing this year but they are just rumors. For a person only interested in first party games 2019 is awful, I have no interest over Dreams and Medievil to me it's a purchase I'll do when I find the game for 75% off, so my PS4 is here taking dust.
