Gaf is annoying me quite a bit right now by having so many people put God of War, Spiderman and Days Gone as 2018 and 2019 releases. No way in hell isn't at least one of these looking at a 2017 date, I wouldn't be surprised if all 3 were currently aiming at that window.
Yeah all three are aiming for 2017 but all three will be delayed ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Possibly (hopefully not), but I can't see a single one of those coming in freaking 2019.

2019 is stupid. U4 is the only game from Sony this gen that has taken that long (from memory) but it was revealed with a CGI teaser and had dev issues.

Dreams, Days Gone, Detroit, God of War, Gran Turismo Sport, Gravity Rush 2, MLB 17, Spiderman, and WiLD. This is already a lot of upcoming 1st party games and I think some of them are bound to be delayed to 2018.

Yeah, I mean Sony have definitely been taking their sweet time with a lot of their games, but they are already releasing ads with God of War and Spiderman in them and Spiderman and Days Gone have both been featured at the Pro reveal, I have a hard time believing that they'd do this if they weren't at least planning to release these three titles in the next 15 months at most.

Which previous ones? Previous CODs? I've played them all since COD4 except ghosts

Bend has gone too long without a release for Days Gone to not be a late 2017 title. Plus, we saw substantial gameplay already and enough details were revealed half a year ago to suggest that development had reached a point of bringing it all together instead of still figuring out what stays and what goes.

For God of War, I'm actually banking on that being an early 2018 title. For one, that's usually when the franchise has a release. In fact, with the exception of Ghost of Sparta, every single God of War title has released in March. When Barlog rejoined Santa Monica, both Todd Papy and Stig Asmussen were still with the studio. Meaning they had three directors but not enough people for three separate teams. Barlog had mentioned recruiting people for a big project. So it seems they had every intention of expanding even more. Later that year, Todd Papy left which likely meant whatever his team was up to was either scrapped, it was another God of War but Barlog had his own vision for the game and changed it substantially, or a majority of them were shifted to Stig's failing project in an effort to save it before the plug was pulled and many of them lost their jobs. Which ever was true, after the disaster of Asmussen's project, it's pretty clear Santa Monica was in a bind and I'm willing to bet everything ground to a halt while they reorganized themselves. This new God of War COULD have been in development for over three years now but everything I've seen and heard suggests to me that it hasn't actually been that long. Almost as if another God of War wasn't originally in the cards and after shame hit the fan Santa Monica ran back to the one thing they know for sure.

As for Spiderman, that just depends on how much Insomniac shows between now and next E3. They did say they're working on stuff to show us next year and it really wouldn't surprise me if Sony tries to line it up with Days Gone as their second half showing for 2017. Detroit possibly being part of that group.

A shame Santa Monica couldn't branch out in the same way Guerrilla did with Horizon.

At least Santa Monica is branching out in some form even if they're not doing a new IP. It's really frustrating that Stig's game didn't pan out.

Yeah I really wonder what was happening with it.  Like what kind of state it was in that they had to throw out probably 50 million.

i'd bet real money that spiderman comes out in 2017.  insomniac has been running a pretty tight ship in not letting their game development drag on forever.  insomniac confirmed that rachet and clank was done in 2015 and only got delayed because of the movie.  i'm guessing their pretty far along on spiderman and it will release summer/holiday 2017.

GoW i think is targeting early 2018.  

days gone,.. i dunno.  probably targeting holiday 2017 and will get delayed to 2018...

...one could reasonably think that dreams, detroit would launch before days gone and with gravity rush 2 and horizon already launching in 2017 we're already approaching the realistic limit of how many (retail) games sony really releases a year.

Big titles like God of war are better releasing in say March.  if you release it in October or later half the customers just hold off expecting it for half price during black friday. publishers are losing so much revenue.  

Ubisoft would be wise to keep the next assassins creed away from this window.
