There wasn't much in this showcase worth noting, but here were the notes I took:
Mortal Kombat 1 - Kameo fighters seem more like a gimmick than a fundamental gameplay change. The fights look mostly the same as they did in MK11. As for the story, how many times has MK rebooted its timeline at this point? I was definitely not sold, based on what they showed.
Dead By Daylight - Nicolas Cage is in it as... just Nicolas Cage. It won't get me to play Dead By Daylight but it was still more hype than most of the showcase was.
Spider-Man 2 - Release date confirmed as Oct. 20, 2023, map will include Manhattan, Queens and Brooklyn, and Venom confirmed to be not Eddie Brock, but they won't say who. Even though the big reveal already happened in the PS Showcase, this was still one of the few highlights of the show.
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth - I'm pretty sure this is the first time we've had a PS5 game that will require 2 discs. That's a huge amount of data. When this eventually gets ported to the PC, you will need a brand new 1 TB hard drive, just to put FF7 on it.
I guess the Final Fantasy size is not that surprising as blurays only go as big as like 50GB iirc? I don't really get why they don't just do what other games do and make you download the rest of the game.
The PS5 can run Bluerays of 100GB.
