No PS4 Neo at E3...

Source


"However, in a move that may disappoint some fans, Mr House said that Sony would not be unveiling its new console next week and refused to say when or at what price the unit would go on sale. “We want to ensure we have a full range of the best experiences on the new system that we can showcase in their entirety,” he said."



Well my hype meter has fallen a bit...

It makes sense, the last I heard, it was due for a March 2017 launch.

So they only going to talk about games at E3 and that's disappointing?

well that sucks. kinda bored with ps4 that runs dark souls 3 at 20fps...

I guess this confirms the flopping of the upcoming PSVR. But to be fair it would have flopped anyway.

You mean all they are gonna do is show CG trailers of games that won't come out until 2018 or later? Yes that is disappointing. Hardware is exciting. Software reveals and stage demos should always be taken with a grain of salt. How many times are we gonna have to discuss "the downgrade" when the actual game is shown/released?

What?! not talking about the new console during E3! are they mad!

oh wait, This isn't Nintendo..

Sony forever

That sucks we need new more powerful hardware for stable frame rates.

E3 would be more interesting if it was closer to Bethesda presentation in which they announce stuff that is available at the time. Imagine if every E3 there was a game announced that was immediately available.

I wonder will MS still show us or talk about Scorpio at E3?

Why do you think that? Im pretty sure it will release October or November if the leaks are to be trusted with the Neo ready games timelimit.

Greatness awaits.

What I know is that it's not ready to go yet- so they're looking at a release next year, with Horizon and God of War 4 being launch titles for it, so to say.

I may be wrong, of course- I am just sharing what I have been told.

ouch maybe I'll build my new PC after all.

Microsoft goes on hours before Sony. If Microsoft announced Scorpio, Sony would have plenty of time to adjust their show to say something about Neo. Remember their Youtube videos shot in a hallway somewhere showing how you "share" games on PS4? Sony is good at adjusting on the fly.

Sony may have got spooked when they heard the Scorpio was aiming for 6 teraflops and decided to wait? If MS believes Sony can't match them for another year,. MS might launch before Sony?

To be fair, you probably haven't touched a VR system and don't know what the flying hell you're talking about.

@loe12k: They feel stupid Nintendo tricked them. Its cost them millions.

Told on this forum?

No, not on this forum.

Not if the machine is inferior. Sony i believe is waiting to see what MS is up to.

No need to show the console, just show that all games shown are running on Neo. They have to focus on VR or they risk losing millions. Be all like,

• God of War: Redemption - Neo
• Last Guardian - Neo
• Uncharted 4 - Neo
• Horizon - Neo

Every single game at e3 can be shown running on Neo. Will be some pretty graphic i hear.

Probably due to the rumors of Scorpio project from Microsoft. If it really is as strong as said, Sony need to up the power of the PS4 Neo, which is why they are waiting to say anything.

MS sitting in the cat bird seat....

Phony doesn't have a chance, I think they all out of buildings to sell lol :P

I just hope they focus on games for our PS4....that is the most important to me.

You think they may try 1up MS or are what were the reason you were told?

Thank you Mr. House, my body was not ready for a new PS4 yet. Just bring the 10/10 essential games :)

Can be shown, but lets be realistic here, they'll be shown on PC

I was just told that they don't think there is much of a hurry, and they don't want the launch of the new PS4 to cannibalize the PSVR launch, which Sony are actually going to be putting a fair bit of cash and muscle behind. Microsoft's plans were not mentioned, but it would not surprise me if Sony were somehow privy to those and responding to them in a sense, as well.

Hmm. Sorta makes sense if you think it's only lauching in 2017, however Sony were pretty eager to announce and talk about the PS4 as soon as they could on the year of launch (and it worked out for them).

Still, that means more games/longer demos at their conference! So no all is lost :D Unless they once again live demo VR.....it doesn't work like that Sony, you need to experience VR not see it on regular 2D screen >.>

I am pretty sure Sony knows what MS is up to, and MS knows what Sony is up to.

@howmakewood: Hahaha, very true. I expect to see that famous "Not Real Game Footage."

Sound believable. Not that much Interest in Neo myself but quite interested how all of this will play out.

I wonder if they are waiting for MS to make the first move and then try and come in under it? (worked out for them last time too! :P)

I am interested in the Neo (and the Scorpio) from an academic standpoint, in that I truly believe that they represent the future of the console market, and I want to see how Sony and Microsoft handle them, and how the market responds.

Probably going to show more PSVR, and probably show a lot more games.

But the PS4 can't run any of oculus rift or vive VR games at 60 FPS.

The PS4 cpu has been surpassed by mobile tablets for awhile now has been struggling to run games at 30 FPS locked.

The system is just not powerful enough for most VR software to reach smooth frame rates.

*clap clap clap clap clap*

I real letdown...

MS sitting in the cat bird seat....

Phony doesn't have a chance, I think they all out of buildings to sell lol :P

I think you're all out of fanboy "jokes" to make lol :P

@battlestreak:

You severely underestimate the depth and breath of mah mountain of fanboy jokingness. lol :P

"Mobile tablets"

Bwahahahahahahaha! Thanks for the laugh! I needed that!

Well, that's tremendously disappointing, at least for me. I'm dying to see how all this plays out, and what the future of consoles hold.

Otherwise, this is most definitely Sony trying to position themselves like they did E3 2013.

@SecretPolice: Well played :P

...But why?

Seriously what happened to e3 man, it's almost like any other gaming event now.

they probably changing their architecture again because they heard ms is making a stronger console and because they heard nintendo isn't really making a strong console.

We may not have had very strong consoles this gen but it did reanimate the hardware power battle, mainly because of the extra power in that ps4's gpu and the extra sales it generated

But apparently the console hardware manufactures don't realize that this was far from the only reason. The mandatory kinect, the bad pr from microsoft, the reserved resources for the kinect and the late release for the esramtools for the xbox have something to do with as well. Of course the combination of all these factors have made the ps4 so successfull. But extra power is far from the only reason, the x360 is the proof of that.

I'm really curious now what will happen at e3 now, is microsoft going the only one with a new console..? Are they going to pull another 360?

The waiting game ambidex edition. Who will finally jump and reveal their console first? Nintendo and sorta MS might need to take the plunge.

@Ghost120x: Sony will have to if they want to save VR. Nintendo has to wait till after VR. Microsoft will probably wait till after VR also.

Can't say that I wasn't really looking forward to seeing Neo at E3 this year. Still, I was wondering if cramming VR and a new SKU into the same E3 wasn't going to be a bit of an overload for people who aren't wonky for hardware as much as I am.

I'm having an equal but opposite problem with MSes E3. I am definitely interested in seeing what's up their sleeve with "Scorpio". However, if they don't make a bunch of new game announcements then it really would be much ado about nothing in my eyes.

As for Nintendo? I still think they are utterly mad for not showing the NX yet.

So Sony's show will only be VR wanking and game trailers for games that wont release for two years then. Definitely find new hardware more exciting.
