they can fuck it up as much as they want, they're running solo. Microshit's Niggerbox will continue being irrelevant and Numaletendo Shitch will continue bingbing wahooing
>success
I watch the event and get excited for the new games :)
I can't really think of something that would define it as a failure. I'm going to be watching at work, so it'll be a timewaster at worst.
Success

Knack 3
Success:
Kaz Hirai personally beheads everyone who was in a position to call shots at SCE for the past several years, begs forgiveness for the sorry state of Sony in that time and appoints Japan Studio and whoever else he can wrangle to make good games.
Failure:
Over-the-shoulder cinematic bullshit games
Few games, most with budget comparable to a small country
Literally no interesting games announced
Interesting game(s) announced but immediately ruined
Attempting to drum up hype for Ghost of Tsushima as a big tentpole game someone will give a fuck about
Retarded/useless hardware or social gimmick
Forza?
Bingo
>success
Either a beloved series returns or a beautiful new ip is shown
>Success

$699, ports, shitty Naughty Dog game.

fpbp. Enough tech demos. Just reveal the console design, price, and games
I almost agree with you
>Success:

>Failure:
Anything but the above
This but also:
Success:
> The new games are more like games from the ps1/ps2
> The console design isn't a fucking meme
Failure:
> More interactive movie "games"
> The console looks like a fucking pizza warmer.
I won't buy it until at least 5 decent/interesting games that aren't on PC are on it and the price drops to $200-$250.
Spirit of Tsushima is already a fail. It's Japanese assassin's Creed. Pass on the whole console. Pass on consoles in general.
>4k 60fps
>Nopestation
We all know that ain't gonna happen.
>success
Gran Turismo 7 aka an actual full game for launch title with a super special edition GT7 bundle that comes with a cool toy
>failure
No plans for 4k Katamari Damacy
They win if they bought MGS, Silent Hill, and Castlevania from Konami.
They lose if they didnt
It'll be $598
Controllers sold separately.
>Success
Elden Ring gameplay reveal/Resident Evil 4 Remake reveal/GTA 6 reveal/God of War 2 shown in any way shape or form
>Failure
Shitty Rocksteady inspired super hero game announced as a launch title/Naughty Dog game.
What game(s) does it need for you to buy it at launch? I'm probably gonna pick one up down the line if Persona 6 is still exclusive to sony, but there isn't a chance in hell it's a launch title.
>success
Having japanese games I want to play
>failure
Not showing even a single one
>Success
Elden Ring footage/info, Bloodborne Port and/or sequel announced, New Crash, New Insomniac (R&C or Spiderman),
>Failure
Lame games
>New Disgaea game

ape escape
>failure
>just upgraded ps4 ports
>Elden Ring gameplay reveal
Not a chance in hell is that happening.
>Resident Evil 4 Remake reveal
All focus is going to be on Res 8
>GTA 6 reveal
Are you for fucking real? GTA 6 is years away.
>God of War 2 shown in any way shape or form
You consider this a success?
Success:
Under $500
5-10 games at launch, of which 1-2 are new IPs
Backwards compatibility
Free upgrades if there's a PS5 release of a game
Failure:
Over $500
1-2 launch titles
No new IPs
No or limited backwards compatibility
They spend a sizable chunk of the event blowing BLM (based on their twitter account this might actually happen)
>Success
New Silent Hill, info about RE8, Bloodborne on PC
>Failure
$599
More movies
For me personally:
Clearcut answer on if ps5 supports ps4 bc, and to what capacity.
Price of system
Design of system (as in what it looks like)
At LEAST 5 NEW GAMES. not remasters, not ports. They don't all have to be launch titles, but at least 5 games.
If they manage that they've won pretty handily in my eyes. It's an hour long so I'm expecting 55 minutes of cerny rambling on about useless garbage and 1 game trailer.
if they mention blm at all, in any capacity, I'm not buying the ps5. I'm so sick of this shit. I play games to get away from the real world. Quit bringing it up.
success: knack 3 baybee
failure: no knack 3 baybee
>terms of success
CEO fired and HQ moved back to Japan
success: elden ring reveal
>success
$500 or cheaper
Exclusive games that Zig Forums actually cares about, not cinematic third-person over the shoulder Naughty Dog shit
Backwards compatibility with PS1, PS2, PS3 and PS4
Strong third-party support with games that are not also coming to current gen consoles
Good, straightforward presentation without cringe
>failure
Not checking at least 3 of the points above
Getting upstaged by Microsoft
Repeating the E3 2006 conference
Whoever their twitter employee is, he went well past the point of redemption. He was literally the equivalent of a Zig Forums shitposter. How the fuck can they get any worse at this point?
>success
not possible
>failure
this one
This, but to play along with the OP:
>399 price tag
>console is more than just a plain looking box
>new games with actually gameplay
>horizon 2 at launch
>bloodborne 2 announcement
Do that and I'll buy it at launch, but it's not going to be 400 and they wont even talk price tomorrow.

>bc with ps1/2/3
0 chance of ps3 bc. It's still far too expensive to recreate the cell to place inside another system. Plus it would make PS now worthless. They've made pretty big strides in making eople want to sub to it, with the whole "you can download ps4/ps2 games" thing. I just don't see ps3 happening.
how many shares are my fellow sonychads buying before the conference? im guessing the stock will jump 10% as soon as investors see silent hill running at 4k.
For it to succeed to me.
>Cool looking console
>backwards compatible
>Sekiro 2 or any new FromSoftware
>new arkane Deathloop trailer
>Todd Howard coming out
