After an 18-month absence, PlayStation Showcase returned yesterday (May 24), and I spent the entire hour-long presentation in a giddy haze of PS5 gaming goodness. But a quick glance at social media after the show wrapped up told a very different story.
The overwhelming reaction on my feed seems to be “Was that it?” and “Where was [insert game] here?” In fact, the general consensus appeared to be that Sony did not deliver the goods and that the PlayStation Showcase 2023 had failed to energize the gaming community as expected.
