This week on Wavelengths I’m covering all of the biggest game and hardware announcements from The Playstation Showcase 2023! The reception to the event seems mixed — a lot of which has to do with lofty expectations fueled by the rumor mill and leaks — but when you take a step back the event was honestly pretty solid overall. We saw a bunch of new games from recent Playstation Studios acquisitions like Fairgames from Haven Studios and Concord from Firewalk Studios, along with a huge list of third-party titles to get stoked about. We also saw the official announcement of the weirdest piece of hardware I’ve seen in a long time: Project Q. --- Feel free to follow me elsewhere!
