[Rumor] Sony to drop exclusive bombshell announcement


Recommended Posts

....or it's just an attempt for a crap site to get hits. I report, you decide.

We have received a tip from a source close to the gaming community that Sony plans on announcing something(s) at E3 that will be on the scale of "when Sony announced GTA: San Andres' timed exclusivity". However, our source was also keen to note that because they used GTA as an example, it did NOT mean this was going to be a game from Rockstar. They also did not specify whether this was a timed exclusivity agreement, a "stolen" former exclusive to another console, or just an exclusive high profile third party title (and no, it isn't Agent). The last time we heard a rumor on exclusivity, or in this case, lack thereof, they hit the nail dead on the head over a year in advance of the actual announcement (Click the here to read that rumor).

Here is the actual quote:

"For this year E3 I've got just one hint. Do you remember the E3 where Sony anounced they have GTA: San Andreas as a time-exclusive deal? Expect huge bombs at this E3. I used GTA as an EXAMPLE - it does not mean Sony will anounce anything from R* !! I just meant what they announce will be as huge as the gta deal - you get it right ?"

Update: "There will be a few

announcements, not one. I cannot tell you anything more."

While we have no idea of what the actual games are, all we can speculate is possibly Final Fantasy 14 (It was announced as a PS3 exclusive last E3, but Square did say they were considering other consoles.), or possibly Grand Theft Auto 5. Maybe even Metal Gear Solid Rising. What do you think it could be?

Oh the suspense.

I'm curious even though I am not a hard core gamer I have a PS3 and Wii. PS3 was a Christmas gift and it's got me into playing some again. I haven't touched the Wii in quite some time ;)

please GT5

methinks GT5 has already been announced as exclusive, no?

See, bombshell announcement would be "We just signed the guys who involuntarily left Infinity Ward to their own studio and a 4-game deal".

Gears of War 3 ..... headed for the PS3

Unlikely, but only plausible if you take into account the recent Epic comments of "We can do what we want with Gears IP" and "We're taking on Naughty Dog (in visuals)". But I doubt it.

All of you are wrong.

Sony is moving with ATi on the Playstation 4

only two out of the three console makers can afford to consider making a brand new console and releasing it in the near future yet. And Sony isn't one of them. and since Sony can't afford to do it, the other are holding of as well, makign as much money as they can this generation. While secretly doing some back room developement on next gen so they can be ahead of Sony by the time they finally have to bite the bullet and make a new console.

Unlikely, but only plausible if you take into account the recent Epic comments of "We can do what we want with Gears IP" and "We're taking on Naughty Dog (in visuals)". But I doubt it.

At no point was I being serious.

Wait wasn't there a super fun, exciting, mega announcement with a similar level of hype that turned out to be the super awesome game that everyone wanted? You know socom 4 oh wait...

Speak for yourself! I, and many, many others are looking forward to SOCOM 4.

    • I understand the position Valve is in with hardware pricing thanks to the AI bubble, but as others have said, this is DOA at this price point. There's no world in which a machine at that performance level is worth that price. My girlfriend's a console gamer and after meeting me, wanted to try PC but wanted something she could use on her TV with a controller. The Steam Machine is basically tailor made for her, but only at what it would have cost before the hardware crisis. I took my old Lenovo Legion laptop with a Ryzen 5800H and a 3060 Mobile 8GB, put Bazzite on it and it does the same thing with the games she's interested in very well. She still likes the Steam Machine, but won't be touching it until component prices are back in the sane range. I know Valve isn't a charity, but I don't know why they're not willing to at least partially subsidize this device or even take a loss on it during the component crisis, just to build some market share. Then again, the Steam Deck is also a complete ripoff at its current price and they can barely keep them in stock so...
