They can but this generation Bungie have connected Destiny's brand with Playstation. They've been present at several E3s as far as I recall.

That's cuz Activision was aligned with Sony, though.

Bungee's got all that money from NetEase now that they're flying solo, so they might not be that keen to stick with that marketing deal- especially since they were the first to sign on with Stadia. Can't forget, Google could become another major "marketing partner" for 3rd parties. They've already got Serious Sam 4 releasing on PC and Stadia before consoles.

PS5 coming this Holiday season, no coronavirus delay.

Also :

spoil tagged for size.

[Aptorian]

Eh, nice list but nothing new. God I hope Sony or some third party has something mind-blowing ready for next week.

[Mentalist]

-Added Moonray to my Steam wishlist.

-Soulborn has an okay premise, but the alpha gameplay looks jan-kay. Even by my relaxed standards.

-Nth^0 infinity Reborn is in super-early dev right now, no way of telling how it's gonna turn out.

There's a second page to that list (it's 38 games total, I think), but aside from these 3, nothing really new that jumped out @ me.

[Aptorian]

Nth0 infinity reborn is such a typically stupid Japanese-like title. Why do they pick these nonsense titles?

I just watched my 7 yr old beat the dream sequence wind blight ganon in the dlc with only 5 hearts, no potions, and after all his weapons broke halfway through. He finished it off with arrows.

He's nearly finished the dlc. I have some catching up to do. While he hunts Lynels for sport..

That's what all the people say.

As per Microsoft Store listings, Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning is getting a remaster. THQ Nordic makes another bad pun to deliver another cult hit remaster. Good for them.

4 hours until the PS5 event starts.

Looks like images of the console leaked yesterday. Looks fine. Reminds me of the PS3.

[Mentalist]

d'aww, they got Yahtzee doing the commentary.

- don't really care for crafting, but Windbound looks cool

Nighthawks is a point and click RPG by RIchard Cobbett. He's a pretty awesome writer, loved his stuff on RPS.


I like everything about the Black book, except the card battles.

A... jetski surfing game? what?Wave break. huh. Stadia first.

More RiftBreaker... also coming to GOG. Makes sense, since the studio is Polish.

whoa. A space shooter... with side-scrolling shooting? and driving missions? yoooo, this sick. Project S.U.N.

There Is No Light is a game I must check out during the upcoming Steam festival. I downloaded the demo last time, but it get scrubbed before I could try it.

Keylocker is takes the idea of that other game about rebelling musicians...and adds Guitar hero. huh

GameDec is amazing. I already kisckstarted that.

ooh, a new racer from Sumo Digital looks all right

ooh, new 1st person puzzler. looks neat. Got cosmic horror overtones, because of course it does. Relicta.

I have this artsy exploration game wishlisted. It's from an animator who decided to try making games. Lucen.

A Hyper Light Drifter-style game about taking over Hell.- Fallen Angel

Wow. I don't particularly care about this indie puzzler, but the fact they got a lute player is impressive as hell.

This Perish game looks like Witchfire. Except it's not. It's an arena shooter with a grappling hook.

The Hellscape theme is very clear. says something about the times, I guess.

- also, music. that line-up of musicians for Bird and Cage is super-impressive.

ooh, a twin-stick shooter featuring a steampunk fox in a top hat! Trifox

ooh, Minute of Islands is also coming to GOG? My poor, poor, wallet..


and now for something totally different... SHOTGUN: THE GAME. Oh it's Trepang 2, that, F.E.A.R. alike

We are the Caretakers...I tried the demo, it wasn't particularly impressive.

ooh, a War of the Worlds stealth-action game. Me wants. Hopefully it's better than that Left Alive game.

Out of Place also looks really cool

OOH, RAJI! the isometric Prince of Persia game. GIMME A RELEASE DATE!!!

ooh, another old-school RPG, set in Bronze age. The Way of Wrath.

ooh, a knock-off Skyrim eurojank RPG. Could it be? is is it Two Worlds 3? Nah, it's something new called SoulKeeper.

All in all, a really cool showcase. People should check it out.

For a second I thought you were talking about the PlayStation event and started panicking. Is this the IGN summer thing you're referencing?

Anyway. Playstation.

I'd love to hear a price tag today but my gut tells me they're playing chicken with Microsoft, hoping they announce a price before they do so they know whether they can make a profit or have to take a loss to be competitive.

Curious if there's gonna be a cheap and expensive model like Microsoft has been hinted at developing.

[Aptorian]

It's probably something they'd outsource to Digital Foundry or someone else but I'd also love a peak at their UI and the shop. The load times and menu switching is so cumbersome on PS4.

[Mentalist]

Cool new announcement from IGN- a comicstyle cyberpunk stealth-shooter, Foreclosed. There's actually a good dev look at the gameplay. sounds interesting.

I might need to watch Samurai Jack, because the game looks all right, but it's a direct sequel to the show.

Star renegades looks very cool. Iron Oath as well.

nah, the Escapist Indie Showcase. posted in the wrong thread

[Aptorian]

I get that GTA V is an industry giant but boy does it look old and outdated.

[Aptorian]

Huh, a Miles Morales game? That's gotta be an expansion, right?
