    All things considered, this really isn't a long shot at all, I would put it at 50/50.



    Christ these games need to **** off already, and this is coming from someone that quite likes both of them.

    I suppose I'm just managing expectations, it would be a big boost if they could announce that as a launch title.

    As for GTA, couldn't agree more. I loved V back in the day but it's just annoying now. The longer they keep pushing this game, the farther away GTA 6 seems to be. They've went a full console generation now without a new GTA which is a bit mad, and I'd love to see what Rockstar can do on next gen.

    Problem is now the 2 lads are aware of the PS5 so Santa might be getting a request for 2 PS5's.

    nows the time to for the two lads to enter the real world of disappointment

    There is already over 1,000 people waiting in the youtube stream:

    I dont think Sony can live up to this hype.

    Just announce Demon's Souls for release day and I'll be happy!

    There hasn't been a meaningful change to FIFA in about 5 years though :pac:

    I don't disagree but for kids they'll want the latest kits and transfers if nothing else.

    I read Rockstar is rumoured to be part of the event tonight so yeah, GTA V on launch and by God I'll buy it a 3rd time! Well probably not, Online was brilliant but jumped the shark, too much shyte in it now, it really needs a new location. GTA 6 Vice City would be a lovely announcement.

    Rockstar announce their games about 6 months before release. Don't expect anything at all from rockstar that isn't GTA5 related.

    Especially if the father buys himself a PS5 and leaves the two lads fight it out over the PS4.

    Eh, no. The last game they announced was Red Dead 2 in October 2016, came out October 2018.

    GTAIV was announced in 2006, came out 2008. GTAV was announced in 2011, came out 2013 and RDR2 was announced in 2016, came out 2018.

    There's definitely a precedent for an early announcement of a game from Rockstar.

    But I 100% agree that if we get anything from Rockstar tonight, it will be GTA5 again. I don't see Rockstar announcing GTA6 any time soon.

    It will clearly be Bully 2... :pac:

    The only major Rockstar game I can recall being announced that close to release was vice city in 2002.

    I'd prefer that to any other rockstar IP.

    My guess for the pricing is €400/€500 for the Digital/Disk versions. Don't think they could go any lower than that for the digital, and a €100 difference seems about right. Don't think they'll want to go much more than the Series X so they'll go 500 aswell.

    Few random predictions for tonight:

    - Miles Morales gameplay. Seems fairly likely if that's presumably a launch title, very little of it shown so far
    - Maybe a long shot but maybe Demons Souls announced for launch. Either way the launch line up should become more clear.
    - An update/upgrade on PS Now, maybe bundled with Plus like others say.
    - A teaser of a big 1st party game that won't be out for a couple of years, GOW2 maybe.

    And the big one...

    - GTA V next gen gameplay :pac:

    I’d really like them to show next gen updates to TLOU and Ghost too.

    GTA, Skyrim, Minecraft and then end on Resident Evil 4.

    The first 3 can **** off, but RE4 is the greatest game of all time. Half-life, Ocarina of Time, The Last of Us, Dark Souls, Mario 64....................................none of them can even touch the N-gage version of RE4 let alone the real thing. It should absolutely be front and centre of any console launch.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,301 ✭✭✭✭gerrybbadd


    I'd have no problems with Resi 4 remastered tbh.

    Big rumours of a Silent Hill reboot coming though. I'd love to see that front and centre up first

    I'd go day one if they release a new silent hill from an Eastern studio

    As someone who got into the RE series with RE7, I would love an opportunity to play an RE4 Remake that's given as much love as the RE2 Remake.

    On that note, f*ck anyone who buys anything at launch with the sole purpose of selling at a profit when said item sells out.

    what your going to see if loads of those new facebook competitions with €5 euro entry and 250 tickets etc

    You don't need to wait for a remake, the original is available right now on every platform and is still a 10/10 masterpiece

    Wait this is a thing now? So glad I haven't been anywhere near that cesspit in a decade now.

    Talking of price, did the PS3 sell out at launch?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,267 ✭✭✭✭GavRedKing


    I think the PS3 was massively loss making for Sony when it was launched and it wasn't until a few years after launch did they start to see some return once they could trim down production costs.

    The Wii was huge back then too so it had fierce competition.

    Nope, I casually strolled into the Game on Dawson St and got one a week after launch. I had visited 2 other shops that morning and both had them in stock, I was after a specific bundle in Game. It did come out in March though, so that is somewhat of a mitigating factor, it may have been a bit scarcer had it launched the previous November.

    Hope atleast 1 of them go for €500 but its hard to say hopefully tonight we find out...

    If the digital is more than €500 I will listen to an entire Coldplay album.

    Seriously.

    Surely that contravenes some human rights accords, even if self-inflicted.
