I feel like Sony will always be held to a higher standard in regard to conferences after their past 2 E3's which sucks for them as they have to reach that standard every year which is very hard but the good thing for them is the standout games last year were all first party bar Spider-man and Death Stranding which both of them and their sequels will only be on playstation. I love that Sony gets that story and characters are so important that is what makes us so attached to our games and systems. When the next cycle of consoles comes people will want a ps5 because they want to play as Aloy, Ellie, Deacon, Kratos etc again. They just get it.
It is also clear Sony know getting to a 100 million sold will require a different strategy and I think you can see this. Getting and making a high quality Spider-man game to get some casual gamers and non-gamers interested in the PS4 is evidence of that but the continuing in investing in different games and experiences. Creating Knack 2 and bringing back Crash to give families something to buy; I expect Sly to come back too. Continuing to invest in VR as a pillar to supplement the console with different experiences. An emphasis on japanese games with Shadow of the colossus and monster hunter being shown. And obviously servicing that single player AAA market with God Of War, Days Gone etc which is a market third parties are starting to ignore now.
