I'm watching the steam right now. Well, I'm watching some of the stream with no sound, and the buffering circle the rest of the time. I know it has nothing to do with the PSN cloud services, but still I can't help but be sceptical.

Are you watching full screen? Mine is all choppy in a window, but is much better full screen.

I'm watching on my Apple TV full screen via my iPhone 5 & AirPlay.

Killzone looked stunning, car club looked meh (not a car enthusiast) and the sucker punch vid looks very promising...


Edit,.. Yeah it's Infamous :)

I watched for a few minutes. It was like they found every creepy guy within 50 miles and decided to put them on stage lol. Graphics look nice though.

Honestly, I want to play everything they have shown so far. Even The Witness and I am not a puzzler.

Predictions... November 21st release.. No physical media

I think us Europeans will be crying by the end of the night, 2014 for us. Hopefully not.

Wow, this render of the old man looks amazing. Impressed.

^I am ok with that, just depends on how it's handled. If it stays with the ID like Xbox 360, Apples iTunes/App Store, Steam, then great. Even better would be the ability to sell your used digital content. If it stays with any hardware: unacceptable. If it is locked to online availability IE active DRM: unacceptable.

^No. Steam is successful. I doubt there will be physical media. Optical really is too outdated/slow, shipping USB3.0 flashdrives...highly unlikely, I'd hate to keep breaking them as I do anyway.

Maybe return of the proprietary media! Oh Sony you would!

My bet is all download. Yay for Datacaps!
;-)

Many places still do not have addiquate bandwidth available for downloading games. And I'm not even talking about the third world. Cable and DSL providers are reluctant to supply service to many rural areas of America and Australia. The only options these people therefor have are dial-up, satellite, and cellular. The first being far too slow of course, while the latter two usually have strict bandwidth caps.

Onimusha and DMC on screen.

Think I will play those again.

Agreed, but it should help force the hand of those ISPs to deliver what we want/need. I would be stoked to move to something like England has with competing ISPs.

Sadly in Ireland I will be crippled if there is no physical media.

Ireland has the highest capita of Playstation ownership outside of Japan .

Our broadband infrastructure just isn't up-to big downloads especially with our data caps and speeds.

Yep no availability so far,
No pricing
No info on media

Its going on forever. I though they would have saved software for E3, at this rate we won't need to watch e3 this year...

Just show us what it looks like!!!

How insane would it have been if Square Enix announced a FFVII remake? Sony should've thrown money at them to do it just for the reaction...

Is this going to end soprano (fade to black) style and not show us anything about hardware or media?



And the answer is yes!!!!

Well f'you Sony. If you haven't got the hardware to show us don't do a frickin launch announcement !!!

Wow, bungie creating exclusive content for PS!!

This must be as annoying to Xbox fans as much as it was for me when they got the GTA DLC first.

Well, that had some promise. I was surprised to see Blizzard and Bungie. Now to see what Microsoft has up its sleeve.

That is incredibly annoying, I really wanted to see the console.
It probably has not been finalised.


Make it glossy Sony.

And give us colour options from launch too!
