I wouldn't be surprised to see Resident Evil 2 and Devil May Cry 5. They'll probably show a long play of Monster Hunter 5. I just hope they show off what we all want. Legend of Dragoon Remake. Probably a long play of Kingdom Hearts 3. That's my guess for their conference.
I expect a detroit date.

I heard from reliable sourves (in my head) that this is the event for Bloodborne 2. Hype!

i would lose my shame if that happens, but i really doubt it. while fromsoftware is japanese and they did have presence in TGS before, if we look at BB sales its much more popular in the west than it is in japan, and a bulk of its fanbase is in the west. it would be more probable and more realistic to announce BB2 at either PGW or PSX. i think they could announce the new armored core game they are working on since that is a more Japanese oriented game.
PSX would be the place for BB2.
It's weird, PSX doesn't really excite me right now, but they announce some big games there sometimes.
Hype!

PSX feels like too much fan service to me. Looking at the numbers that isn't really the case, but that's how it comes across.
Ok I'm up. Let's do this!
Classy stage this time.
Here we go!!!
SOTC remake looks great
FFIX PS4 port. Is that big?
Some gundam game announced
New VR game with dinosaurs
Oh it's Ark Park?
This music thing is odd for VR but kinda cool I guess.
What the what is that thing?!? Weird animation hair stuff.
Detroit time!
2018 confirmed for Detroit
1/26/18 for monster hunter in Japan.
Same date in the west too
End. not really a lot of stuff imo. Fun edning trailer
Sounds like I made a good decision not to get up and watch this live :D
So a whole lot of nothing? I'm disappointed in the lack of JRPG. Now that FF, Persona, and Dragon Quest are out, there's literally nothing.

Yeah it was really lame for me. Almost exclusively just Japanese games I don't care about, and on top of that it was just a trailer montage. Hopefully Paris games week is quirky.
It wasn't the worst thing I've ever seen, but it also wasn't good, but it started at 9am here and I'm currently sick anyways, so it's not like it was a huge hassle for me to watch it..
Why did they pull out the freaking RDR2 trailer from 2016 for instance? And what is it with Sony and ending their TGS shows with new ads, they did the same thing last year I believe.
Still SotC still looks good to me, 13 Sentinels finally reappeared, Monster Hunter looks pretty great and that new Square Enix game they teased is at least intriguing to me.
Maybe it's just a difference in culture, maybe the japanese like their shows like this, but I really feel that if Sony actually bothered with it a little more, they could certainly make better TGS conferences. Work together more with 3rd parties for instance so they don't constantly reveal and show off their major games only at their own events.
Bad conference Sony strikes again.
Also I feel, and maybe I'm just being too hasty here, after all they've released 3 games in the last year, that Japan Studios is still not being utilized right by Sony.
They said at the end of the show that their goal was to get one PS4 in every household in Japan, while that goal is unrealistic as is, it certainly won't be achieved by new ads. Instead Sony needs to use their resources and position in the japanese market to finally try and make something big that is their own for Japan again and I believe Japan Studios is the key to that.
In my opinion the japanese market is one that is bursting with development talent, that is largely held back by low budgets and risk avers publishers. Sony with the success they are seeing in the last few years could be one of the few publishers to give talented creators the budget and development resources (thanks to the people at Japan Studios) to try and make something new, big and exciting for Japan (and possibly the world).
Instead they are giving Cerny a budget and team, so he can make a mediocre sequel to an awful first game, that's not going to sell for shame.
Creating a new hit like Splatoon is hard as hell, I fully understand that, but Sony has done such a phenomenal job positioning their western studios for far better success in recent years, that I'm honestly wondering why there hasn't been a comparable push for their japanese development arm.
But maybe I'm just being melodramatic and Japan Studios is currently cooking the next big thing, who knows, after all it took Sony until earlier this year apparently to realize that japanese games can very well be successful in the west as well.
Bad conference Sony strikes again.
They can't keep getting away with it!

Maybe Third Parties in Japan would rather they unveil stuff at their own conferences? Opposite would be for E3 as people don't really care much for other conferences, so you'd want to be at Sony's or MS (Though it's looking more and more like you'd just want to be at Sony's)
Legend of Dragoon or GTFO
