Yeah, Sony got a big show prepped for June 2nd.
I always associated Showcase with a hardware reveal of some kind.
If I remember correctly Sony also sneaked in a few days before the Xbox (yes, I will keep writing it with only one capital X) summer showcase last year. It is great to have june stacked with showcases for a little E3 nostalgia feeling. Come on, Nintendo!
I don't think anyone legit cares about the x being capitalized or not...
Sony owns Alamo Drafthouse. That's corporate synergy at work.
I want to see more Intergalactic!
At this rate.... Wolverine may be one of the last big first party exclusives for the PS5
Once the PS6 launches everything is going to be cross-gen again
You expect the PS6 so soon? In this market? At these prices?
¨at this rate¨¨ =/= ¨soon¨
IMHO I don´t think it makes sense to launch PS6 until memory prices have recovered, with a lot of new capacity coming online a few years from now... if AI/cloud demand keeps expanding more so prices don´t recover, then at least they should aim at more of a technical advance (which could include aspects reducing RAM usage). Especially when most all games will be cross-gen anyways, with last-gen only just now getting dropped by new game releases.
That would mean Sony don't make a first party game for PS5 for 2 or even 3 years. Considering they make like 4 or so a year, that's unlikely.
They better show RE CODE VERONICA Remake
They know that Nintendo is coming in June with the PROPER Nintendo direct we've been waiting on!
June is a promising month for game announcements
