And welcome to my Live Reaction blog for Sony's PlayStation State of Play (Live Broadcast) streamed on 25 March 2019.
For reference, the VoD is available below:
Now onto my reaction as it happened!
NOTE: Time stamps are as live. Not referring to the time on the above video.
21:00:22
And.... it's late? Why DO these things never happen on time?
21:00:35
Oh, hold on.
21:01
VR game? Not actual gameplay? IRON MAN? THEY ARE STARTING WITH AN IRON MAN GAME IN VR? WHO ASKED FOR THIS?!
21:02
"Throughout the year"
21:03
Nah... not interested in remasters/remakes/re-releases. Get off my screen. NEXT!
21:04
Where are the actual humans? I don't want to listen to a robotic voice the whole way through. For this video or future.
21:04
No Man's Sky VR? Woo..
21:05
Well... Readyset Heros looks interesting. Please let me pre-order it now. Take my money. At least it's not a battle royale.
21:06
This is all way too rushed. Slow it down a bit. I can hardly recall anything that's been presented at present. Nothing outstanding.
21:07
BOOOOOO!!!! THEY CENSORED! Don't care if this is meant to be family friendly for any children which may be watching.
21:08
May 28th... Blood & Truth... Not excited myself.
21:08
LOOK AT ALL THIS STUFF! JUST SO WE CAN SAY "WE ANNOUNCED 54184 NEW TITLES AND PROVIDED 5484 UPDATES ON PREVIOUSLY ANNOUNCED TITLES!"
21:09
An actual trailer? Not a teaser? What sorcery is this?
21:09
Observation? Need more information...
21:10
Five Nights at BORING! If I wanted to play PC games. Guess what I'd buy? Regardless of VR...
21:11
Stop trying to sett it to me. I'm not interested in the original Five Nights, so I'm not interested in this either. I'm not "Pewdiepie"!
21:12
FINALLY! Concrete thingy... I'll post the title in a minute. From reviewing the hashtag #StateofPlay on Twitter, this was mentioned a lot.
21:13
"When you can't find friends..." STOP SPEAKING TO ME AND ONLY ME!
21:14
Concrete... Concrete... Jungle? Come on, what's it called again? We all know it looks pretty. Much in the same vain as the inFamous extra story/chapter: First Light.
21:14
Genie! That's it! Concrete Genie... Fall 2019... PS VR? Okay, sold!
21:15
I haven't been following this title, Days Gone. It looks good, but I'm all about the game play trailers myself.
21:16
HEY LOOK! There will be love and loss in this game. BUY ME!
21:16
Just give me the game play. Don't talk over it. It's not game play to me if you're talking over it.
21:17
Would rather play World War Z...
21:18
WE'RE TRYING REALLLLLLYYYYY HARD TO KEEP MORTAL KOMBAT FRESH....
21:18
So they censor swearing... but blood, guts and gore is fine?
21:19
Do people actually listen to ....is this called dub? Doesn't fit Mortal Kombat...
21:20
Hey look! Another game coming soon! WOo!
21:20
IS THAT IT? REALLY? WTF! I wasted 20 minutes on that when I could have been playing The Division 2?
21:21
Generation Play? DAFUQ? Was this a hidden advert for a YouTube channel? Seriously, this individual is trying FAR too hard.
21:22
"MY NAME WAS ..." I've already forgotten your name.
21:23
"Hook up ;)" Seriously hope they don't use this channel to do the next State of Play.
21:24
I put a Tweet out earlier saying:
"Why do I get the feeling that if Sony's #StateofPlay doesn't meet expectations, we're going to have "Sorry State of Play" headlines on gaming websites."
But that really was a Sorry State of Play......
